Support. These are two different states and shouldn’t be lumped together as if one, because the Soviet Union has multiple successor states and aircraft originated in more than one of them.  —Michael Z. 15:17, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This category doesn't seem to meet WP:CATDEF. Its stated purpose is "to contain all towns in Álava", but all articles in it are about small villages/hamlets.

The result of the discussion was: delete. Not a defining intersection. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 12:50, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Note to closer: There are other concurrent discussions all pertaining to Category:Politicians by cause of death in which similar or the same arguments are being made.
Nominator's rationale: There are many people who should be included in the category (such as William Henry Harrison), but this is extremely broad. Benjamin Franklin wasn't even in office when he died. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 20:03, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The nominator stated that [Category:Politicians' deaths from disease] is "extremely broad". Then, more so is Category:Deaths from disease. Therefore, diffusing is the answer. Regards, Thinker78 (talk) 23:28, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Diffusion is first done when there is a specific and large existing category filled with numerous pages. Marcocapelle is saying that this category is extremely vague and broadly-defined. Diffusion is not a solution to a broad and vaguely defined category. Deaths from disease is already diffused by country and some diseases. Further, even if there was an extremely, over crowded category, we would diffuse first by century before occupation for deaths. Mason (talk) 00:11, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The nominator, whose comments about "extremely borad" I was refering to, is LaundryPizza. Even in your argument, Deaths from disease is even broader than Politicians' deaths from disease. There is also the Category:Causes of death by occupation‎, parent category of Category:Politicians by cause of death. Vaguely defined? How is death by disease vaguely defined? Sincerely, Thinker78 (talk) 03:15, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Vaguely defined? How is death by disease vaguely defined?" Genuinely, @Thinker78, how the intersection (politicians who died from any disease) not vague? Why is this intersection meaningful? Is there academic literature on how politicians who died from a disease is meaningful? I could see an argument for a specific disease, like Coalminers who died from blacklung. Black lung is a occupationally hazzard. How is general disease meaningfully intersecting with occuption.
"Even in your argument, Deaths from disease is even broader than Politicians' deaths from disease." My "argument" is that we don't diffuse by occupation until it is necessary, and that century and country would come first. I don't understand why you won't actually engage with others people's perspectives or even the core of the issue. This isn't about arguing, this is about CONSESUS seeking. Mason (talk) 18:26, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You did not answer my question. You say it is vaguely defined. Why do you think it is vaguely defined? Please elaborate because people have different ways of thinking and what is immediately evident for you may not be for others. Also, One thing is "vaguely defined", another thing is the more subjective term "meaningful". Sincerely, Thinker78 (talk) 22:58, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 12:57, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Seems to be a misused and possibly arbitrary grouping; there is no corresponding real-world category, but Career criminal redirects to Habitual offender; this seems to be sorting through illegal occupations, as Category:Fictional serial killers is not here. Some entries are already in another subcategory of the same; for example, most of the subcategories can be placed within Category:Fictional criminals by crime. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:00, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: While investigating another CfD, I discovered that this is a mishmash of unrelated occupations and statuses, from Category:Criminals and Category:People in law enforcement to Category:Executioners and Category:Lawyers.

The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 07:04, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The word "transcontinental" appears to be used here (based on the countries that have been added to it, and also on uses of the word in articles) to mean "occupying space on more than one continent". It isn't clear to me that the word ever had that meaning before someone started using it that way on Wikipedia. A brief search through Google Books, for example, for works containing both "Turkey" and "transcontinental" appears to find no pre-Wikipedia matches where "transcontinental" is being used to describe Turkey. It's possible that all Wikipedia-contemporary matches that use the term that way got it from Wikipedia—which demonstrates the peril of allowing Wikipedia to invent its own words or its own meanings for existing words. (The real meaning, as indicated by its parts, is "across a continent", such as a transcontinental railroad. The only countries that are transcontinental in that sense are Russia, the United States, Canada, and Australia.)
Unless sources can be found to show that the term already had the newer meaning without having picked it up, directly or indirectly, from Wikipedia, we shouldn't be using the word in that sense. In that case, the category should be renamed, or else only the four above-mentioned countries should be in it. Largoplazo (talk) 17:19, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leaning toward agreement with Largoplazo on this. Most dictionaries do not include this "in multiple continents" meaning, and those that do are recent and easily could be simply recording usage recently observed and caused by Wikipedia. Regardless, the term is too ambiguous to use this strange way. I would think that what the category is presently trying to get at is "multi-continental countries" or if we don't even like that quasi-neologism, then "countries with territory in multiple continents". If we wanted a category for the four countries that span across a continent, then that could be expressed as "continent-spanning countries", "countries spanning a continent", etc. Then we have the problem of List of transcontinental countries which appears to be a WP:OR festival (most especially when it comes to distinguishing between "Europe" and "Asia" which are not true continents and have debatable, subjective boundaries). So far, only three of the sources cited at the list article have used "transcontinental" this way and they all post-date Wikipedia (and post-date that article, which was created on 21 April 2005‎ as "Transcontinental nation", promptly tagged as OR, and shortly merged with another article on the same topic, "Bicontinental country"). However, there are a lot of other sources that were not quoted from directly, and it would be a lot of work to go through them all trying to find pre-WP uses of the term in this way, much less to assess the totality of them to deterine whether this is a well-enough accepted usage for WP to be using it as if it made sense to our readers. And we also have the weirdness that Transcontinental country redirects not to that expected list article but to Boundaries between the continents.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  17:46, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, not a defining characteristic. Borders between continents are not strictly defined anyway. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:38, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, mostly per WP:CLNT. List of transcontinental countries takes great lengths to explain that this list can be many things, or anything, depending on what you chose to include or not. Which means that populating this category can only lead to endless back-to-back. On the other hand, continents don't change often, so this information isn't really informative at all. As Marcocapelle put it more concisely: this is not a defining characteristic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Place Clichy (talk • contribs) 19:50, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Further comment by nominator It feels to me as though people who strive to classify countries as covering territory in more than one continent do so because they see something remarkable about it, but the only way it would be remarkable is if one starts with a premise that everything is supposed to fit neatly into categories--this little box fits in this bigger box, this other little box fits in this bigger box, with no overlap. So there's a premise that each country mapping to one continent is somehow normal, and that falling outside of that norm is worthy of its own categorization and merits a five-dollar word to describe it. It seems to me that it's comparable to considering it "normal" for a given person's work to be associated with a given century, so that Titian was a 16th-century artist Albert Einstein was a 20th-century scientist. So, then, when you have someone like Natalie Portman, whose acting career spans the boundary between the 20th and 21st centuries, if you're very hung up on neat categorization, you're going to want to call out the people who defy your expectations and given them a name and a category of their own, like Transcentury actors. "Transcontinental countries" is kind of like that. Largoplazo (talk) 22:52, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The parent category was made by a blocked user. Violates WP:SUBJECTIVECAT, as there is no obvious definition of what the benchmark is for their aging being slowed.

The result of the discussion was: keep. The nomination has been withdrawn. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:57, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The main article Taisha now exists. As per Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_May_14#Category:Taisha this should be moved back to Category:Taisha Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 03:42, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@RevelationDirect you said to reconsider after the article exists. It exists now. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 07:02, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Immanuelle: Thanks for creating the article! - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:41, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@UtherSRG thank you for changing the categories on the main article. Do you support this move? Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 07:21, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In that case, my friendly suggestion would be to withdraw this nomination (since it seeks to substitute one for the other). Instead, you can continue to work on the improving Taisha (shrine) article, especially the sourcing, that could be a main article for a potential second category. (You could of course create that category now, but without putting the concerns above to rest that the title is not subjective or just a shared name, it might get deleted at CFD.) Either way, thanks for improving the shrine topics! - RevelationDirect (talk) 01:56, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@RevelationDirect In that case I withdraw the application. As you can see now the contents of the category are radically different and it is actually about Taisha-zukuri Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 02:11, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
