 * Merge &mdash; Sebastian (talk) 00:34, 2005 Jun 16 (UTC)
 * Do Not Merge- The controversy over whether certain languages are proposed or actual is important. So, whoever wants to add or move items from one list or the other, do so. Have an editing war if you want. In anthropology, you need to be able expand categories, I think. Kzzl 19:44, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 2 concerns: (1) The article Proposed language says it's most commonly a proto-language. So there's naturally a huge overlap. (2) What do you think is gained for Wikipedia if the distinction is fought out here? &mdash; Sebastian (talk) 05:49, 2005 Jun 18 (UTC)
 * Agree with Sebastian, merge. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 09:26, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)

Suggest renaming to September 11, 2001 Commission, since the term '9/11' only has that meaning within the US. Systemic bias. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 11:11, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)


 * Rename as suggested. James F. (talk) 13:52, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - the full name is the somewhat unwieldy National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, but more importantly in the grand scheme of things for everyone on this commision it was a relatively insignificant part of their notability. The members are listed in the aricle, there is (or at least could be - I didn't check all of them) a wikilink to the article from each member page, so I don't see the value of the category. -- Rick Block (talk) 14:19, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Should at least be renamed to Victims of September 11 attacks or something like that, but I'm wondering why we have this category in the first place. There are several lists of such people in the Wikipedia, and the existence of this category tends to attract people who wish to add entries on their otherwise not noteworthy family members and friends.

[Merged all of the similar categories for deletion together. James F. (talk) 13:52, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)]
 * It is my understanding that the votes here are for all gender-related categories listed directly below. Whoever closes this discussion should note that some people voted both here, and for individual categories. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 09:49, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)


 * Merge all with unisex equivalents and delete except Queens, which should be kept for the New York borough, and Women of Pakistan, which should be renamed as suggested to "Women activisim in Pakistan", perhaps? James F. (talk) 13:52, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge all as per James F and Radiant! I agree, they're not equal if they're segregated.  --Kbdank71 14:43, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge (almost) all as per James F. For performing such searches we should implement combining categories, as proposed by Radiant! and many others. &mdash; Sebastian (talk) 17:23, 2005 Jun 15 (UTC)

 * Our Categorization of people guideline lists this as a prime example of how not to categorize. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 09:30, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge--"The result of this cat is that you won't find a woman in cat:scientists because she happens to be in cat:female scientists." is plenty enuf argument for me. Exception for the borough, of course, and for a better named Cat for the Pakistani women activists. For 'King/Queen' rulers, keep regnant/consort/mother/fictional subcats in some form.

While I understand the value of feminism, women's studies and equality, I do not understand why it would be necessary to subcategorize scientists simply because they're female. As a matter of fact it goes agains the very idea of equality. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 11:01, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)


 * gender equality is an absolute joke, because women are still not recognised, even in history. making a separate category (or subcategory) highlights such a group. sometimes, the plight of a group needs to be highlighted. or do you suggest deleting "African American writers" and put them all into "Writers" as well? it´s called diversity in unity, so why not talk about it as well? it´s just a category... 141.20.154.221 15:39, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * We group people by reasonable distinction, such as their profession or country they live in. We do not group people by skin color or gender, because creating such distinctions only serves to create inequality. The result of this cat is that you won't find a woman in cat:scientists because she happens to be in cat:female scientists. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 12:08, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)

Categorization_of_people asserts that categorization should be gender-neutral. Indeed, creating separate categories for women is a way of creating inequality. For instance, a female high court judge deserves to be in the same category as a male high court judge. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 11:01, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Ditto, except that in this case most women here are activist or symbolic for women's equality, and the category should be renamed to reflect that. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 11:01, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Listed as the very example of how not to categorize on Categorization of people, each of these should be merged with their male equivalent to create an egalitarian category. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 11:01, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

I do not care much for the other listings. But "Category:Roman empresses" mostly deals with Empress consorts, wives of Emperors rather than reigning Monarchs. Placing them in the same category as their husbands would cause problems. The Equivalent of listing all six wives of Henry VIII of England in "Category:English monarchs". Would also require quite a rewright of List of Roman Emperors to list their various female co-rulers. Are you in fact suggesting that?User:Dimadick


 * don't really see a problem with the Category Empresses or Queens for that matter... some ruled by their own, some were married, some were widows, you can´t just put them all into one bag. voting to keep category. 141.20.154.221 15:31, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep them all. It seems pointless to decide to merge eevrything together just because someone feels the need to create the appearance of gender equality. Kuralyov 17:53, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Merge both for the same reason as above, into Category:Kings and queens (or possibly Category:Monarchs, but that severs a different purpose presently). Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 11:01, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * Except of course for the parts about the New York neighborhood called Queens :) Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 15:01, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

What would that achieve? Currently the categorisation makes distinction of not only their sexes but their factions in political life. Kings regnant and Queens regnant being those who ruled by their own right. Kings consort and Queens consort being those who earn their title due to their marriage to a King or Queen regnant. Also listed are Queen mothers, mothers of reigning King and Queens. Are you suggesting for the distinction to be eliminated? User:Dimadick
 * I'm suggesting for the king/queen distinction to be eliminated. The distinction regnant/consort is very useful, and should remain. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 13:47, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)


 * don't really see a problem with keeping "Kings" and "Queens". some were consorts, some reigned, so they were all different. but they had beeing a queen in common. i say keep it. User:antares911


 * keep don't be silly. Where is the discussion on ungenderised categorisation? Dunc|&#9786; 17:01, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Redundant with Category:Philosophers by era - both are a list of subcats that classify philosophers by time, and eras or periods in history make more sense on this account than strict centuries. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 08:49, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. &mdash; Sebastian (talk) 17:14, 2005 Jun 15 (UTC)
 * Keep, for pity's sake. Adds significant user value.  Era boundaries are uniformly subject to dispute, which makes them a distinctly substandard way of organizing anything.  -- Visviva 08:55, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Has anyone actually looked up the Category:Philosophers by era. Not being without its merits (sometimes apparently parallel schemes serve a purpose), being a student of philosophy myself, I find this chart by century much more helpful, especially in a work of reference. (Because some philosophers cannot easily fit into an era. The era works mainly for Western philosophers, but are difficult to use for, say, Chinese philosophers. So both categories make perfect sense and should be left as they are. Maybe with a cross reference and a brief explanation as to why are there two categories, so this discussion will not repeat itself.) JM.Beaubourg 19:05, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * How about merging the two then, into Cateogry:Philosophers by time or something like that? Both are rather small, and both serve the same purpose if in a different pattern. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 09:56, Jun 19, 2005 (UTC)

Unnecessary categorization; think of the mess this would create if more like these were created. Most of those included aren't even identified with Woody Allen movies, as the vast majority were not repeat performers for him. Contrast with Category:Star Trek actors or Category:Star Wars actors, for example; most of those included are only notable because of those roles, and as for the others, participation in either franchise leaves an indelible cultural mark on the individual. Except for maybe Diane Keaton, the same cannot be said of anyone who appeared in Woody Allen films, which are not as integrated a phenomenon as Star Trek or Star Wars. Postdlf 08:34, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Agree, I recently seen this cat and wondered how many people actually would know this. Notability on a selective scale. Whereas the other cats Category:Star Trek actors and Category:Star Wars actors are easily identified by a wider audience (notability). Delete.   <> Who ? &iquest; ?  09:10, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Redundant with Category:United States student societies. Also, using the word 'Greek' in this fashion is systemic bias, as in most cultures 'Greek' means 'from Greece', rather than 'having a name that happens to be composed of Greek letters'. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 07:46, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Okay, apart from the renaming suggested below (to group them by country) - is there any particular reason to not merge these two categories into Category:United States student societies, especially given that several fraternities are in fact coed? Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 07:46, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)


 * Indeed, merge. James F. (talk) 13:52, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge. (Four German societis moved from Category:Student fraternities to Category:Student societies, all the rest appear to be US based). Nigosh 00:33, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
