Speedy renaming and speedy merging

Shortcut

WP:CFDS

Categories may be listed here if they fall under the criteria specified below. Deletion and de-listing may occur after 48 hours if there are no objections. They must be tagged with {{subst:cfr-speedy|new name}} so that users of the categories are aware of the proposal. This delay is to allow for objections over correct spelling, etc. to be made and to ensure that items are not listed here that do not meet the criteria.

Categories that qualify for speedy deletion (per Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, e.g. "patent nonsense", "recreation", categories that have been empty for four days) can be tagged with the regular speedy tags, such as {{db|reason}}, and no delay is required for these.

Contested requests can be removed from this list after 48 hours. If the nominator wants to continue the process they need to submit the request as a regular CfD using the instructions above.

Speedy criteria

Criteria for speedy deletion, renaming, or merging are strictly limited to: From 20 November 2009 to 4 December 2013 the policy page Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion transcluded the criteria for deletion of categories from a discussion page instead of having them directly coded in the policy page. To see the history of that section of the speedy deletion policy during that period, see the editing history of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy/Criteria. For current discussion page for the same material see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy#Speedy criteria.

A nomination to merge or rename, brought forward as a full CfD, may be speedily closed if the closing administrator is satisfied that:

The nomination clearly falls within the scope of one of the criteria listed above, and;
No objections have been made within 48 hours of the initial nomination.

If both these conditions are satisfied, the closure will be regarded as having been as a result of a speedy nomination. If any objections have been raised then the CfD nomination will remain in place for the usual 7 day discussion period, to be decided in accordance with expressed consensus.

Add requests for speedy renaming here

If the category and desired change do not match one of the criteria in C2 listed above, do not list it here. Instead, list it in the main CFD section.

If you are in any doubt as to whether it qualifies, do not list it here.

Use the following format:

* [[:Category:OLD name]] to [[:Category:NEW name]] ~~~~

Don't forget to tag the category with {{subst:Cfr-speedy|newname}}

Please add new entries at the top of the list and sign and date stamp your entries with ~~~~.

A request may be completed if it is more than 48 hours old; that is, the time stamp shown is 15:09, 19 July 2024 (UTC) or earlier.

The following 3 categories were tagged for speedy renaming, but not listed here. I object to all 3, because in each case the title is "Bishop of Foo", not "Roman Catholic Bishop of Foo".

Oppose the following bishops renamings. In all the case, the title is not "Roman Catholic Bishop of Foo", but "Bishop of Foo". Where disambiguation is needed between various denominations that use the same title, this should be done by use of a parenthesised disambiguator, not by implying that there is a post called "Roman Catholic Bishop of Foo". --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 08:00, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- That's why they need to be made lower case. "Roman Catholic Bishops" does imply there is a post of "Roman Catholic Bishop of Foo", but "Roman Catholic bishops" does not, it just means they are bishops and they are Roman Catholic. They are all part of the large category trees Category:Roman Catholic bishops and Category:Anglican bishops. Tassedethe (talk) 14:47, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - The generic category is fine, but these categories do refer to the holder of a specific post : "Bishop of Meath" etc. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:33, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Barcelona province to Category:Barcelona Province — C2C - All other categories for individual provinces in Spanish-speaking world contained in the tree Category:Provinces by country show that it is the Wikipedia naming convention to use a form like Barcelona Province when the Spanish proper full name is like "Provincia de Barcelona". The prove for the application of the naming convention can be found in the following categories: Category:Provinces of Argentina, Category:Provinces of Bolivia, Category:Provinces of Chile, Category:Provinces of Colombia, Category:Provinces of Gran Colombia, Category:Provinces of Costa Rica, Category:Provinces of Cuba, Category:Provinces of the Dominican Republic, Category:Provinces of Ecuador, Category:Provinces of Equatorial Guinea, Category:Provinces of Panama, (no categories within Category:Provinces of Peru, Category:Provinces of the Spanish Empire), Category:Provinces of Venezuela. Same Wikipedia naming convention for linguistically and/or geographically related Portuguese language items apply to Category:Provinces of Portugal, Category:Provinces of Angola, Category:Provinces of Mozambique. The only ones that inconsistently use lower case "province" are the ones from Spain listed here. TopoChecker (talk) 16:22, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually the other categories for Spanish provinces use a lower-case P. Although, shouldn't it be Category:Province of Barcelona like the article? The same goes for all the other categories named after Spanish provinces. McLerristarr | Mclay1 16:30, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - The others are proposed for change below. Shouldn't the articles be changed to match the other Spanish-speaking world province articles? Then we would have it all consistent, all articles and all categories? TopoChecker (talk) 18:06, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- [EC] Looking at other categories is not by itself a sufficient basis for identifying a Wikipedia convention on category names. It's not clear that the "convention" you perceive is truly a convention arrived at by consensus. One generally established convention at Wikipedia is to name categories consistent with the names of main articles in those categories. In some of the other categories you cite, the articles for provinces have names in the form Azua Province and Niassa Province, so the category names are consistent with the article names. As you note, that is not the case for the main articles for provinces in Spain, where the article names are in the form Province of Barcelona. Unless there's a past discussion somewhere in the archives that supports your theory on the "convention", I'd like to see a discussion of this proposal that can arrive at consensus agreement on a convention to follow. --Orlady (talk) 16:36, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- C2C "established naming conventions" - it does not talk about how the convention for the other items was reached. Agree with the article names. Shouldn't these be changed to match the other Spanish-speaking world province articles? TopoChecker (talk) 18:06, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I object to the above-listed requests to rename categories for provinces.

All other categories for individual provinces in Spanish-speaking world contained in the tree Category:Provinces by country show that it is the Wikipedia naming convention to use a form like Las Palmas Province when the Spanish proper full name is like "Provincia de La Palmas". It is true that the short forms are as you write. But they cannot be used as category names since they are ambiguous - several provinces are named after towns, or the names are found in other countries.

Category names can be disambiguated in the same fashion as article names (e.g., "Córdoba (province)"). It is not necessary to invent an new name form like "Córdoba Province."

Oppose this and all of the other "breeds originating" articles. Animal breeds may be closely associated with a given nation, but given shifting animal movement and shifting national boundaries, the animal breed may have "develped" elsewhere. In this case, many animals associated with Poland may have "originated" when the nation was part of Russia. We have had some significant edit wars over the "origin" of eastern European animal breeds and would prefer to keep the existing category. I recommend the same for all other animal breed articles so tagged. Montanabw^(talk) 20:30, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I simply don't understand why we would want to retain the parents in one format and the subcategories in a different format. This is what C2C is meant to resolve. Oh well—full discussion here. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 02:35, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Huge list: I need advice on what to with these. I am not going to go through all of them to tag; that's excessive even for me. They are all in the form of "X aircraft YEAR-YEAR" with a hyphen rather than endash per WP:DASH. They should probably be in the form of "X aircraft (YEAR–YEAR)", but at the very least, the hyphens should be replaced. Can these be tagged by a bot? —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 21:56, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- My advice: Don't bother tagging. Since it's just an en-dash change, leave it here till the 48 hours pass, and then put the entire list of categories on Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Working/Large (and tell User:Cyde that you've done so). I might not add the parentheses, because of the very careful changes you will have to make to Template:Airnd and all the others of its type.--Mike Selinker (talk) 02:27, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose such a large change for what is a trivial reason, cats have worked fine for years and nobody in the real world would notice the difference. MilborneOne (talk) 15:58, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose - All this change will do is make things harder for editors with absolutely no real world benefits.Nigel Ish (talk) 16:05, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose - we don't have dashes on our keyboards, but hyphens. We should use what is readily available on a keyboard without resorting to html codes etc unless there is a very good reason, which there isn't here. Mjroots (talk) 06:22, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
