September 11

[edit]

Category:Latin Christian hymns

[edit]
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. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:32, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: It is in Category:Latin-language songs. Latin Christian carries a connotation that I do not think is intended here. JFH (talk) 23:44, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Living Paths

[edit]
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. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:00, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The parent of this category is a WikiProject category, yet most of the content of this category is articles (not WikiProject pages or talk pages). For info: A related discussion was Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2013_October_8#Category:Living_paths.21 DexDor (talk) 19:42, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Go ahead; this was temp. Llywelyn2000 (talk) 20:32, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete but listify. If there was a reason to have these in the first place, a list is a much better format to gather this information. SFB 22:43, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • PLain delete -- This category is being misused. It appears to be for places on living paths, though the articles may not even mention the fact. We have several times had discussions about such categories, which have all the probelms of Performance categories. We deleted mountains on the Appalachian Trail (and places on it).

Category:Lists of language names from common sources

[edit]
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:Wikipedia lists of language names from common sources; if anyone wants to try a new nomination to remove "from common sources", go for it. There wasn't a very strong consensus on whether or not to drop it, so I have just defaulted to keeping it in the name. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:24, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: To make clear that this is a WikiProject category (i.e. not for articles like The Languages of Africa and List of unclassified languages of South America). Suggestions for a better target name are welcome. DexDor (talk) 19:38, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, pinging kwami to see if they concur. DexDor (talk) 04:42, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe, but that sounds like something we made up or compiled ourselves, rather than mirrors of lists in other sources. — kwami (talk) 03:55, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Nazi war crimes

[edit]
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: Keep (NAC). DexDor (talk) 21:13, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Other members of the Category:War crimes committed by country parent are named by the country, not the party running the country... It's also difficult to know whether each and every person convicted of war crimes which roll up into this cat were or weren't Nazis (i.e., members of the NSDAP), where nationality is ascertainable.

Category:Civil conflicts in England

[edit]
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. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:27, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Consistent with parent (Category:Civil wars involving the states and peoples of Europe) and with multiple childcatgories. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:03, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agree that the parent name should be shortened. However, rather prefer 'Civil wars in Europe' instead of 'Civil conflicts in Europe' - while renaming the English childcategory as nominated and purge the category to remove anything less than a war. Civil war is an established term and Category:Civil wars is an established WP tree, while civil conflict isn't. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:53, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Löschen (NAC). DexDor (talk) 06:07, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus, all agruments seem to be valid--Ymblanter (talk) 18:36, 9 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: It is wrong to make an association between a religion and crime. Hoops gza (talk) 00:18, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Keep (NAC). DexDor (talk) 21:17, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Again, it is wrong to make this association between a religion and crime. The only reason that I did not speedy this is because I am not sure if any of the articles in it need to be merged into other categories. Hoops gza (talk) 00:16, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
