Category:GS Consolat players

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. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkl talk 18:42, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Category:GS Consolat players to Category:Athlético Marseille players

Nominator's rationale: GS Consolat is the former name of Athlético Marseille. Essentially, all these players in this category should be in Category:Athlético Marseille players. We should just merge this into that. Otherwise, just delete the other category and move this category there (or just delete this one). Anyways, there just needs to be one category called Category:Athlético Marseille players and this one can't exist. Paul Vaurie (talk) 23:23, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page discussions. Giant Snowman 19:18, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:900 mm gauge railways in Iceland (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: Not a category that's going to have more than a single entry anytime soon. Kj cheetham (talk) 22:10, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Category:900 mm gauge railways. That parent has a lot of single-page sub-cats which should probably be merged likewise. I have raised the point of principle at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Trains#Small categories by gauge and country. – Fayenatic London 11:07, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Good point, I fully support merging. -Kj cheetham (talk) 14:47, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge -- no need for a wider upmerge as article already in Category:Rail transport in Iceland. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:12, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:600 mm gauge railways in Iceland (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: Not a category that's going to have more than a single entry anytime soon. Kj cheetham (talk) 22:10, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Category:600 mm gauge railways, as Kj cheetham has not given any rationale for removing the article from that parent. – Fayenatic London 11:05, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Good point, I fully support merging. -Kj cheetham (talk) 14:47, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Hollywood, Los Angeles history and culture

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. ✗plicit 02:33, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose splitting Category:Hollywood, Los Angeles history and culture to Category:History of Hollywood, Los Angeles and Category:Culture of Hollywood, Los Angeles (and possibly to Category:Cultural history of Hollywood, Los Angeles)

Nominator's rationale: split, throughout the category tree we have history and culture separated (with cultural history as the intersection), there is no reason why we wouldn't apply that to Hollywood to. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:39, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. Haven't checked the entries in the category but I'm assuming Marcocapelle has. Gonnym (talk) 14:43, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Split is sensible and proposed word ordering is spot on. —jameslucas ^{▄▄▄ ▄ ▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▄} 19:21, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Translators en-en

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: delete - @Pppery: please go ahead amending the templates (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 06:33, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:Translators en-en (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Propose deleting Category:Proofreaders en-en (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale Nonsense user categories - one cannot meaningfully translate (or proofread a translation) from English to English. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:36, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Gonnym (talk) 14:47, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: this appears to be a by-product of the userbox {{User Proofreader}} used without parameters, or {{User Translator}} with |en|English as parameters. Clearly, the templates' code should be amended. – Fayenatic London 11:32, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
{{User Proofreader}} is a wrapper around {{User Translator}}. That and {{User Translator 2}} are the two templates that need to be updated, which I will happily do when this discussion is closed. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 14:42, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:User en-sa

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 Category:User en-sa to Category:User en-ZA and merge Category:User en-za. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkl talk 09:34, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Category:User en-sa to Category:User en-za

Nominator's rationale: Don't need two categories for South African English. "En-za" appears to be the correct code. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:31, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pppery per en-au below, wouldn't this be en-ZA? Gonnym (talk) 14:46, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The reason for the uppercase naming convention below is that is what mw:Extension:Babel forces people to use. Since there's no mw:Extension:Babel population going on here, there's no reason to rename to uppercase, although I have no objection to merging both to Category:User en-ZA instead. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 14:48, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Use Category:User en-ZA consistent with other uses -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 04:30, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Rename the older one Category:User en-sa to Category:User en-ZA, merge the other. – Fayenatic London 11:34, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Merge Timrollpickering (talk) 00:34, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Category:User en-au to Category:User en-AU

Nominator's rationale: Per Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2021 June 4#Category:User en-ca * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:31, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. Gonnym (talk) 14:45, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:User smo

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. – Fayenatic London 14:07, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:User smo to Category:User sm

Nominator's rationale: Rename to use ISO 639-1 code rather than ISO 639-2 code. Alternately, delete as the category contains only one userbox and no actual users. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:17, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rename; keep the userbox pagename around as a redirect -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 04:31, 23 April 2022 (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: delete. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkl talk 22:37, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:Members of the All-India Yadav Mahasabha (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: This follows earlier discussions (Category:Nair people CfD and WT:IN - Caste lists vs. Caste cats) where editors reach consensus not to have caste-categorizations. All the articles categorized are unsourced to be a member of the organization except Poornima Krishnappa, thus a blatant violation of WP:BLP and/or WP:OR, where applicable — DaxServer (t · m · c) 15:38, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Notified WT:IN of the CfD — DaxServer (t · m · c) 15:45, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, a mere membership of an organization is hardly ever a defining characteristic. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:29, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 05:16, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:PAGES WITH LOGIN REQUIRED REFERENCES OR SOURCES (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: If this isn't used, it should be deleted. If it is used, it should be moved to a NON-SHOUTING version. Fram (talk) 13:04, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note; we already have Category:Pages with login required references or sources, so I guess the above is redundant and unused. Fram (talk) 15:45, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I created it at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 136#CATEGORY:PAGES WITH LOGIN REQUIRED REFERENCES OR SOURCES because a template combination sometimes added the all caps version and it was an ugly red category on articles. The templates no longer add it so it has nu purpose now. PrimeHunter (talk) 16:10, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. I probably should have realized looked more closely and realized that this was useless when I added parent categories on December 10. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:17, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:LGBT motorboat racers (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: Farfetched categorization with just ONE entry.Mill 1 (talk) 12:31, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
