Category:Model railroad manufacturers[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 (non-admin closure). Marcocapelle (talk) 06:59, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Substantial overlap of concept. Many manufacturers produce stuff for both ends of the market, and people who start off with toy trains progress to models. There is no clear boundary between them. Maybe needs a different name - perhaps "Toy and model railway manufacturers" or "Rail transport modelling companies"? Rathfelder (talk) 17:16, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think you are wrong to suggest there is a clear distinction between the two. There is a continuum. Some products are clearly toys, some are clearly models, many can be seen as either. Toy trains are all made to a scale. Rathfelder (talk) 14:56, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • That may be true, but what I look at is whether your proposal to merge is going to improve the category structure. I can accept that the present structure is far from perfect, but I cannot see that your proposal makes things better. Twiceuponatime (talk) 09:45, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Similarly to previous discussion about operating systems, categorization of users by hardware is not helpful. —⁠andrybak (talk) 15:52, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename. MER-C 09:48, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename, per actual content of the category, it contains biographies of counts, rather than history articles about the county. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:05, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
As the one who created the category, I agree with the change. Maragm (talk) 14:06, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: keep. MER-C 09:44, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete, with two exceptions (Ermesinde of Carcassonne and Almodis de la Marche) this category only contains queen-consorts of Aragon, who already are in Category:Aragonese queen consorts and for whom countess of Barcelona was a mere secondary title. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:14, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment in the second case, a re-creation of the title would have to have its own category. Am inclined to support the nomination with the additional safeguards suggested by the nom. Laurel Lodged (talk) 08:59, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
