Putting up some cats that have unofficial category redirects, as far as I can tell. Unofficial redirects are ones that have not gone through here, and thus have not been properly set up for automated bot enforcement. But they still have the cat-redir tag. - TexasAndroid 18:45, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Largely unattested (garners just 40 Google hits) term for films and television series about police officers operating outside of their usual environment. Parent article is itself listed on AFD. Delete as overcategorization. Bearcat 16:57, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, IMHO too broad. From the looks of Articles for deletion/Cop out of water, it is likely the term is not familiar enough for a category name either. -choster 20:24, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as per above. David Kernow 16:25, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. JoshuaZ 21:33, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Category:Towns in Merseyside

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the category above. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the category's talk page (if any).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was no consensus. Syrthiss 13:03, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

The content is covered in much more detail under Category:Towns and villages in Merseyside, the duplication is unnecessary. Shrew 16:26, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose Merseyside is the only part of England that has combined categories. They should all be sudivided and the "towns and villages" categories should then be deleted. Carina22 20:01, 16 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment. In principle standardisation is desirable, but in this case it would hinder rather than help the user. Note that Category:Towns and villages in Liverpool has recently been renamed Category:Districts of Liverpool (not my proposal) and this is still fully referenced by using Category:Towns and villages in Merseyside. Delete is still proposed. Shrew 13:28, 19 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Support. Put the rest of England in line with Merseyside if that bothers you; its the more sensible way to do it, people shouldn't have to know which category they fall under in order to find them, especially when it is further subdivided below the Merseyside category. That overcategorization is counterproductive.  Gene Nygaard 15:24, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Support Overcategorization is confusing and unproductive. JoshuaZ 21:35, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose This isn't overcategorisation, it is standard categorisation. The change for Liverpool was appropriate because it is a city, but the other boroughs are not. If anything should go it is the borough categories (other than Liverpool). CalJW 23:01, 22 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment. Keeping both Category:Towns and villages in Merseyside and Category:Towns in Merseyside seems excessive. Can you expand your views on what you would do with the other borough categories please. Shrew 09:00, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

The result of the debate was delete. Syrthiss 13:06, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Category:Cities of Ancient Pakistan, Category:Cities of Ancient India, Category:History of ancient India, "ancient" is a subjective term. A proper periodization should be chosen instead, such as Middle kingdoms of India (are they 'ancient' or not?), Mughal Era etc. The distinction between "Pakistan" and "India" is pointless for periods before 1947; geographical terms like "Punjab" should be chosen insead. dab (&#5839;) 15:10, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Disambiguation subcategories

''this section doesn't need a closing block, since it itself isnt a delete discussion... just prefaces the ones below''

Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) strongly suggests that subcategories of Category:Disambiguation be discussed on the MoS's talk page before creation. Despite this, quite a few sparely populated disambiguation categories of questionable utility have built up over the last few months. Most, if not all, of these should be deleted and their contents tagged with disambig. Since Category:Disambiguation isn't really intended to be browsed, these subcategories are really just a waste of space and time: why subcategorize a category whose contents aren't supposed to be found except via searches and accidental links? Furthermore, many articles in these subcategories aren't limited to the topic of the subcategory, making these even less useful as a navigational tool (if anyone ever actually uses them as such). -Sean Curtin 10:29, 16 March 2006 (UTC)


 * This nomination is based on a misunderstanding of the utility of these cats. Over in WikiProject Mathematics we track changes to mathematical pages at WikiProject Mathematics/Current activity. These are generated with automatic tools that, among other things, walk all pages that are underneath the Category:Mathematics. Without having this subcat, it is impossible to tell if some random disambig page is mathematical or not. These tools are presumably useful to other projects, so if some project wants to track thier articles, they would need a cat like this. linas 02:36, 19 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep, Merge, and/or Rename: these issues have been endlessly rehashed.
 * Some folks don't want subcategories of disambiguation (usually the same folks that don't bother maintaining the existing lists already described at Disambiguation). Arguably, categories are preferable to lists in this case. There's no annotation.  The only list actually needed for lonelypages prevention is Links to (disambiguation) pages.
 * Some folks note the pages are both in Category:Disambiguation and these subcategories, generally not a good idea. That's because certain rampant disambiguators want them all to have disambig and that puts them in the main category. I've previously proposed keeping these "lists of" under Category:Wikipedia administration adjacent to Disambiguation.
 * Many of the names don't conform to the usual conventions. Renaming would be appropriate.  These are pages with lists.  The correct form is "Lists of ...."
 * For example, after a TfD in January, the existing:
 * Category:Lists of roads sharing the same title,
 * Category:Lists of Interstate Highways sharing the same title, and
 * Category:Lists of U.S. Routes sharing the same title.
 * Other existing forms are:
 * Category:Lists of ambiguous human names, and
 * Category:Lists of ambiguous place names.
 * --William Allen Simpson 22:00, 19 March 2006 (UTC)


 * As the comments below indicate, there is more support for the shorter version.   Therefore, I've striken the renames, leaving the necessary merges.

Category:Human name disambiguation

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the category above. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the category's talk page (if any).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was keep, but merge with Category:Lists of ambiguous human names in accordance with Naming conventions (categories). --William Allen Simpson 11:06, 25 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry. Couldn't find a discussion on the talk page about moving this category, so I've reset the template to point to the original category.  Please tag the page with a rename request and go through the proper channels, rather than saying that one 'merge' vote trumps nine 'keep' votes.  Noisy | Talk 23:22, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

As above. -Sean Curtin 10:29, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep - if any subcats of disambig should exist, this one and geodis are the ones. It is useful for many foreseeable reasons to subdivide out some niches from the gigantic category of all disambig pages. BD2412  T 01:18, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per BD2412. Dread Lord C y b e r S k u l l ✎☠ 14:03, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep - it's clearly useful. Themindset 19:24, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep its amazingly cool to look up famous people who have the same name!!  JeffBurdges 21:15, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete too many human names also refer to something other than a human being - too confusing to maintain and navigate Tedernst | talk 23:12, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Only for self-nominators for adminship with editcountitis, some of us actually read and think before edits. --William Allen Simpson 16:21, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * If a disambig page leads to both human names and other concepts (like Scarlet (disambiguation), then it's just a disambig page; if it only contains names of persons (like Thomas Baker) then it should have an hndis label. BD2412  T 20:54, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Clearly identifiable subset of disambiguation page. -- User:Docu
 * Keep. Although thinking about it, I can't see a clear use as some other voters have intimated they have.  It's very poorly sorted at the moment, because not many people seem to use the 'name=' parameter to get the sorting done on surname.  Seems like a candidate for a bot if (!) this survives CFD.  Noisy | Talk 13:16, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with the existing Category:Lists of ambiguous human names created during discussion in January, and Rename to Category:Lists of human names sharing the same title . --William Allen Simpson 16:21, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Of all the issues facing us, tracking biographical articles is perhaps the one that concerns me most; and this category is an obvious step in the right direction. Charles Matthews 20:17, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep clearly useful. --BrownHairedGirl 12:12, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Since "people" have a specialized style of disambiguation entry, it seems sensible that some editors might want to be able to FIND such entries. A number of editors have been trying to standardize the order, but have been sidetracked by the attempts to do away with it, so the argument that it's a mess is partly self-fulfilling prophecy. Perhaps they should be allowed to fix it. Chris the speller 05:02, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Strong keep Do you have any idea now much math words are overloaded?  This category could be of very real use to working mathematicians, especially grad students.  (yes, I am a professional mathematician).  JeffBurdges 21:15, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Not sure why these would have to be a seperate category. The issue isn't the existence of the dab pages, it's how to categorize them. Tedernst | talk 23:12, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. This category is needed by WikiProject Mathematics to maintain and track changes to mathematical pages, and is used to feed WikiProject Mathematics/Current activity. The gooal is to make sure that all pages on math appear as a subcat of Category:Mathematics, as otherwise it is impossible to locate some random page on the disambig category and determine if its mathematical or not. I don't know how ya'll track things without having a category like this. linas 02:31, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's useful for us mathematicians and it does not seem to do any harm. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 04:31, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge and Rename to Category:Lists of mathematical terms sharing the same title. --William Allen Simpson 16:21, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Weak keep. but I have asked for this discussion to be held open a while longer, to generate a clear consensus - there are an awful lot of these articles (see ), and I don't think the ambiguous human names category is quite the right fit (I've never met anyone named Hurricane Earl). BD2412  T 04:00, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Hurricane Hatty (in the comic?), they are all human names, it would easily be done with category sort like all the other "Surname, Given". But there's an existing template, and an existing project, and it might be better let them keep it. Striking my merge suggestion, I was just trying to be consistent and accomodating.  --William Allen Simpson 00:36, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

The result of the debate was rename all but stricken one. Syrthiss 13:44, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Moves to be made:


 * Category:German Hip Hop to Category:German hip hop
 * Category:Hamburg Hip Hop to Category:Hamburg hip hop
 * Category:Jews_in_hip_hop to Category:Jewish hip hop musicians
 * Category:Hip hop musicians by country to Category:Hip hop musicians by nationality
 * Category:Dominican Republic rappers to Category:Dominican rappers
 * Category:Rap metal groups to Category:Rapcore groups After discussion, its been decided this one shouldn't be done.

Explanation: The punctuation is hip hop (look in Category:Hip hop by nationality if you don't believe me. As far as country to nationality, consider this: there are categories for Category:Rappers by nationality and Category:Hip hop by nationality.  Calling it by nationality instead of by country allows us to include ethnic groups' hip hop, like hip hop made by Jews and Gypsys and Kurds(by the way, I created Category:Jews in hip hop, my mistake in the first place).  Dominican is the proper term for referring to the nationality of someone from the Dominican republic.  Rap metal groups to rapcore, because rap metal is a redirect to rapcore, and because rap-metal is just a subgenre of rapcore, almost every rap-metal group includes elements of rap-rock and other stuff, so its pointless to get that specific with the genre.  Also, Category:Rap metal groups is too specific if you consider the fact that we don't even have a Category:Rapcore groups yet. That's my reasoning.--Urthogie 09:02, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Support except the last one. I believe "rap metal" is much more common than rapcore, and yes, I know there's not complete overlap. But for the average fan, if it contains throbbing guitars and rapping, it's rap metal.--Mike Selinker 15:31, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * How about this. We make it a subcategory of Category:Rapcore groups?--Urthogie 15:53, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, actually, I guess I'd argue that category:Rapcore should become category:Rap metal. But that's not the debate at hand. For now, I'm just arguing that category:Rap metal groups should stay as is.--Mike Selinker 16:29, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I think thats simply inaccurate. Rapcore includes rap-metal, rap-rock, etc.  It's a blanket term for all those fusions of hip hop and other rock-influence genres.--Urthogie 17:09, 17 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Rename all with exception of Category:Rap metal groups if its members are rap metal rather than rap rock, rap rap, rap classical, etc. David Kernow 16:33, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, based on input here I've recategorized Category:Rap metal groups and removed the cfru notice from it. Everyone satisfied with renaming all but this one?--Urthogie 16:54, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 10-4 here. David Kernow 11:05, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Absolutely. Just to be clear, I don't think you're wrong about rap metal/rapcore. I just think most people aren't aware of the latter term.--Mike Selinker 06:48, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Papua New Guinea are yet to play official one-day internationals, as such an international needs to be given official status by the International Cricket Council and none of these matches have yet. The one player in this category is definitely a Papua New Guinean cricketer, though, so a rename seems sensible. Sam Vimes 08:23, 16 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Rather than renaming, I suggest creating the parent category, Category:Papua New Guinean cricketers, immediately, and moving the one entry to the parent category. That will leave an empty Category:Papua New Guinean ODI cricketers (of course, because there are no PNG ODI cricketers), which can be deleted. Stephen Turner (Talk) 09:58, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

It appears to be generally awarded as a lifetime achievement. I like Segrave Trophy recipients. I disagree with the format Recipients of the Segrave Trophy because it is too passive.

This category expands on an article which was started to list distinguished Canadians. This list has been on Wikipedia for over 2 years without any debate on it's merit. Adding a category seemed the next logical step on that page to allow the valid categorization of Canada's many distinguished and honoured citizens. As for who gets on the list. That's up for all Wikipedians to decide. And also, being Wikipedia, the talk page exists for anyone to debate on a person's addition to the list. That's what Wikipedia is all about.

To Seal Clubber's argument that "the talk page exists for anyone to debate on a person's addition to the list. That's what Wikipedia is all about" – not so. Wikipedia is not ideally a place to push our own opinions then argue them out. It's a place for us to contribute objective and factual information about subjects that interest us. This may including objective information about notable or widespread subjective opinions where appropriate, but as opinions. We should aim to write only that which an editor on the other side of almost any fence from us, writing honestly, would have to agree to include. The alternative is perpetual and futile edit war.
