September 18

[edit]

ASEAN

[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 Timrollpickering (talk) 10:19, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: After a formal move discussion, Association of Southeast Asian Nations was moved to ASEAN. I suggest renaming the categories to match. Good Ol’factory (talk) 01:22, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, I wonder if the RM has been closed correctly. It rather looks as a case of no consensus. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:54, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Only Weak support -- If this goes ahead, the expansion of the name should be in the headnote. I also wonder if the RM was correctly closed, as WP discourages the use of abbreviations that may be obscure to some people, but as long as the redirect from the full name is retained, it does not unduly matter. However, there is merit in keeping category names short. Peterkingiron (talk) 14:08, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. The RM appears sufficiently sound, even though some of the 8:4 majority !votes were IP editors with poor English. I do not see the benefit of redirecting the full name; as it is so much longer, IMHO it is unlikely to be used. – Fayenatic London 17:59, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete Timrollpickering (talk) 10:21, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete, recently I created the two subcategories. I don't think this needs to stay as a parent category, as it merely combines two relatively unrelated topics. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:19, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kyiv

[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 all. – Fayenatic London 20:29, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Full list
Nominator's rationale: Rename all per the main article which was moved to Kyiv this week following years of discussion. Many categories have been proposed for speedy renaming but opposed on the basis of a naming convention (details below); however matching the main article traditionally takes precedence over conventions on such matters. Given the widespread back and forth editing since the page move it's critical to get a clear decision about the tree ASAP.
I have not included categories with formal names, titles or by year/decade century as these will need additional consideration in their own right. Timrollpickering (talk) 18:19, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy discussion
The RM was closed as "move", and as not been overturned; so I will not oppose renaming the categories. But i have too little confidence in this RM to actually support renaming the categories. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 07:46, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: make Category:Programs a disambiguation category. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:37, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: synonyms in this context; the "collaborative" qualifier seems to be missed by many editors. fgnievinski (talk) 01:05, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete Timrollpickering (talk) 10:23, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Fictional time periods

[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. The category currently contains only Hyborian Age, which is already in one of the parents, Category:Mythopoeia, and in a sibling, Category:Fantasy worlds. – Fayenatic London 15:33, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is a WP:SMALLCAT with only two articles. Seeing as most fiction, by definition, is a fictional period of time where fictional things happen, I also think this risks being a WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. These are already covered just fine at fictional worlds (which could be renamed fictional settings). Shooterwalker (talk) 21:09, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[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 Timrollpickering (talk) 10:10, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This category has a mix of templates for different reasons. It's unclear what characteristics link the contents. I think the thing that links the most contents is that they contain reference values, sometimes ranges, sometimes values, so I propose a rename to better reflect the category's purpose.
