Nominator's rationale: Few companies specialise in container cranes. If not merged as proposed should be renamed to correct the capitalisation. DexDor (talk) 18:37, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: speedily deleted already under WP:G5. – Fayenatic London 13:14, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Promotional category obviously created by a sockpuppet of banned user Alex9777777. They have previously created essentially the same page, most recently (that I know of) as Category:Music "LF Top Songs ♪", but also in several other versions as well. PohranicniStraze (talk) 16:00, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This page is not related to Alex9777777, please do not delete the category!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Billboard_Hot_100_number-one_singles there is , then let it be and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Belarusian_music_chart_%22LF_Top_Songs%22 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Music proekt (talk • contribs) 16:17, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Mayors of Caribou, Maine

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: merge to parents. MER-C 16:36, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Also Category:Mayors of places in Maine. Small category with only 3 articles. TM 15:28, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Upmerge It appears in Caribou the "mayor" is actually the head of the council with additional honorific duties. The term is 1 year at a time. 2 of these people were state senators (one succeeded the other) and the third is notable as a prominent person in state-wide civic action, not really for her short time as mayor. Just to make things more fun that 3rd person was the wife of another one of the mayors we have an article on. With this merger we will have 15 articles in the people from Caribou, Maine category. There is no good reason to split in any way a people from category that is that small.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:01, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Architectural styles

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: split/merge. MER-C 16:39, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: the proposed outcome will result in the latter two categories having clearer names that are reciprocal, and are consistent with other Wikipedia categories analysed by two criteria. The first one Category:Architectural styles will hold articles on styles and sundry sub-categories, and a new Category:Architecture by style to hold the main sub-categories by style such as Category:Art Deco architecture. – Fayenatic London 15:14, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Climate change science

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: merge. MER-C 16:39, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Climatology defined as Climate science. Looked at articles to see if Climate change science was more economics side of climate change science but found no hint of that (except perhaps sub category Category:Climate change conferences‎ which may need moving to be a sub category of something more like Category:Climate_change_policy or Category:Climate_change_policy. Anyway categories are too similar, and I think they should be merged. crandles (talk) 16:27, 30 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Will try to do that appropriately. crandles (talk) 11:02, 31 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
While this is being discussed, Climate change science is a sub category of Climate which is a sub category of Climatology. Should Climatology be a sub category of Climate rather than other way around? I wouldn't know how to make such a change, nor would I be sure of appropriate reasons to make/change it one way or the other. crandles (talk) 11:00, 31 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not sure I do not oppose a merge but I also would not oppose the recreation of this category if anyone developed it better. Currently "climate change science" is a smaller category containing more technical articles and "climatology" is the larger category which seems to contain some but not all of the science, and also many political, data, or list-oriented articles. Category:Climate change skepticism and denial is not a subtopic of either of these, and instead is a subtopic with these under Category:Climate change. Probably there are enough articles in the top level "climate change" to justify having a discussion to plan the structure of all subtopics, and not just considering this one category independently. Still, if there is only interest in looking at this one category now, then it could be merged, but I would not want a present merge to be a barrier to any future dividing into subcategories by replicating this category or introducing any new scheme. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:51, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I would welcome such a discussion. If you have any comments to start that discussion, perhaps that could be done at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Climate_change#Categories or on the talk talk. crandles (talk) 13:10, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Marcocapelle: You are correct, that does seem like a more focused alternative to this category.

Nominator's rationale: Overly specific in-universe category more in-line with Wikia's needs. All articles are categorized elsewhere. TTN (talk) 15:49, 30 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Scientists of medieval Islam

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Medieval Muslim scientists. MER-C 09:33, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Clearer, better match to article space (medieval Islam redirects to Islamic Golden Age), better match to parent category Category:Islamic Golden Age (it has no "medieval Islam" parent categories). Note: if this is renamed a further CFD could propose renaming the subcategories. DexDor (talk) 18:44, 31 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Would there be any advantage in renaming to Category:Scientists of the medieval Islamic world instead? DexDor (talk) 21:08, 31 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Wikipedia Hebrew templates

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: rename/merge. MER-C 13:27, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The current names are inconsistent, poorly phrased, and/or misleading (the pages in the Devangari category are templates, not help pages). The Wikipedia {Foo} script templates naming convention is advantageous in that it clearly identifies each category as containing project maintenance templates related to a particular writing system. (Note: I am not including the subcategories, which also need to be renamed, until the broader question of naming conventions is decided. Pining the category creators, User:Gilgamesh~enwiki and User:Mahitgar.) -- Black Falcon (talk) 21:16, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
