If you are reading this page because you found a category tagged for deletion (e.g. with {{cfd}} or {{cfr}}) or an article was recently moved to a new category by this bot, please be aware that it is only doing so in a conjunction with a nomination which has been posted to Wikipedia:Categories for deletion by a human. It may be difficult to find the nomination page, because it is very long and very active, but it should be there somewhere. Be aware that it may be part of an "umbrella" nomination (and thus your specific category might not be listed) or have been moved to a subpage (which is done when discussion are resolved.) See the section Discussions moved off-page and Archived debates. Feel free to leave a note here or on Wikipedia talk:Categories for deletion if you still can't find the original nomination.
Whobot is a bot owned and operated by User:Who. This is the right place to post complaints and compliments about the bot, though you may want to mention on User talk:Who that you posted here, to more quickly get the owner's attention.

where can one find any mention of moving "House of Plantagenet" to "House of Anjou"?
The "whobot" is busy switching people from the "House of Plantagenet" category to a "House of Anjou" category, referencing the categories for deletion page. Yet I cannot find any discussion of this rather peculiar choice there. Where can one find any mention of moving "House of Plantagenet" to "House of Anjou"? Did it occur to no one that "House of Plantagenet" is a subset of the First "House of Anjou" and that Plantagenet kings are usually referred to as Plantagenets, or, if referencing their connection to France, an "Angevin Dynasty"? We shouldn't be needlessly confusing, and we should use the more specific category. - Nunh-huh 23:48, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
- I appologize I did not see this message sooner, as you may have seen, User:Splash responded on both my talk page and Wikipedia talk:Categories for deletion. ∞Who?¿? 04:19, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
