solid steel Delete, Recreation of merged/deleted category, per Categories for deletion/Log/2006 August 19. After Midnight 0001 23:03, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as recreation of deleted content. We shouldn't have to waste time on these. --Dhartung | Talk 03:45, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I didn't have chance to have a say on the original deletion. This series is distinct from the other Ninja Tune albums, as although the DJs are Ninja Tune artists, the vast majority of the content is by artists who are not on the Ninja Tune label. The series is continuing, and there are sufficent entries to warrant a grouping. I have no issue with renaming it to Category:Solid Steel albums. Alternatively, if you do not wish to keep it as a category it should become a sub-category of both the Ninja Tune albums category and the DJ-mix-albums rather than just speedy deleting it.

 * Rename per nom. David Kernow (talk) 05:12, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose It is commonly written as two words in the UK and a google search suggests that form is common in the U.S. as well. Brammen 11:38, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - After reading the discussion linked to above, and the preceeding comment, I think we should take the middle route and use "business-people" (note the hyphen), since this is a term "in-progress" (unlike "businessman"). - jc37 04:55, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose And most strongly oppose using a hyphen, which I don't recall ever having seen in this context. Hawkestone 18:08, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Which one is than the best? It just seems weird when you look in Category:Businesspeople by nationality. Garion96 (talk) 18:19, 13 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment The gender-neutral equivalent of "businessmen" is "businesspersons", not "businesspeople". "People" is not an exact plural of "person", but a separate word with its own connotations. --Trovatore 18:24, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * "Businesspersons" is not a real word imo. It is the sort of linguistic horror that is only used to make a politically correct point. Hawkestone 12:47, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * "Businesspeople" seems to be intended to make the same point, so I don't see any distinction there. The problem with the "people" version is that it seems to ascribe to them some sort of community, a quasi-ethnicity. The plural of "person", when you continue to consider them as individuals, not collectively, is "persons". --Trovatore 17:24, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * It isn't relevant whether you disapprove of it. It is a common English term, and Wikipedia should use normal English. You are effectively arguing that Wikipedia should engage in linguistic reform. Calsicol 11:18, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Response No, I'm not. "Businesspersons" is also a normal English term, and the more precise one here. I do think we ought to use more precise language when available. We shouldn't make language up, but "businesspersons" is a well-established term. --Trovatore 18:40, 15 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose per the above discussion. I think we change the sense of the terms by attempting to use them as a compound word. - jc37 00:54, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment "Business people" is just as bad. No one says that, and it still has the defect that "person" does not pluralize cleanly to "people". If "businesspersons" is considered ugly, we should look for a way to rephrase. --Trovatore 05:57, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment If no one says it why does it get millions of google hits? Calsicol 11:18, 15 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose switch to businesspersons. I'm not so bothered about the original issue. Calsicol 11:18, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Coment - I don't think that the words were in doubt. I think it's about semantics and connotations, and what the "most common" usage is. After checking your links, and checking a few other dictionaries, I think I support "business people" as the most common, while still retaining the intended meaning. (Which means I still "oppose" the nom.) - jc37 10:44, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Oppose. It should be a Keep. The cat is empty because someone made a POV entry to Golan Heights and changed Category:Volcanoes of Israel to Category:Volcanoes by region which doesn't make sense, it should be reverted and that's why category should be kept. Amoruso 00:31, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Merge, These two categories are the same. The one with a lowercase a in the word "area" is empty and should either be deleted or merged into the one with an uppercase A in the word "area." Tlmclain 20:14, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Agree, and pick "areas" since it's not a proper noun.  &gt; R a d i a n t &lt;  09:18, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, based upon the naming convention for other similar categories, it should be "Areas." Tlmclain 11:19, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per Radiant - "areas" isn't a proper noun. Guettarda 13:01, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Concur. Very POV. Thadius856 19:45, 11 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment: I came to this page because I am a regular editor of Shining Path and this was just added to that article.  At one point, Shining Path was part of a category called something like "Leftist terrorists."  Because of POV, the category was renamed "Left-wing militant groups."  Because of the ambiguity of "militancy," it was changed to "Armed left-wing groups."  Because of the ambiguity of "left-wing," it was changed to "Irregular military."  Now it's back in "Left-wing terrorism."  At some point, we have to come to a consensus about what to call it; it's insane to start this whole cycle again.  --Descendall 20:11, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment If it is a designated terrorist organization, this categorization is easy, see Category:Designated terrorist organizations. In the case of Shining Path, they are (I guess) rightfully in that category. Need need to over-categorize this group into too much cats. Intangible 23:13, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment: if kept, the category name should indicate that it includes players, not numbers, but Category:National Hockey League players whose numbers were retired is a bit of a mouthful. - EurekaLott 02:01, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Merge to . There aren't any actresses categories - all the female actors are included in actors. Pink moon1287 15:38, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Partial oppose Merge the actresses category with Category:Western movie actors, but leave that as it is. "Western film actors" makes me think of "Film actors from the Western world". Wimstead 16:52, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge and comment - As above, there are no "actresses" categories, so merge those to actors. Also, I noticed that the description of Category:Western movie actors says that it highlights "film and TV actors" who made contributions to the western genre.  However, supposedly this category is specifically film actors, not TV actors, so I think there is some confusion over what the category definition is supposed to be.  Since this category is a subcategory of Category:Film actors, it should be film actors and not include people who were only television actors.  Actors who played in television Westerns should probably be categorized seperately under Category:Western television actors, since actors are normally divided by film/tv categories. Dugwiki 22:35, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge, possibly rename to clarify, but no need to subcat actors based on gender.  &gt; R a d i a n t &lt;  09:18, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Possibly rename to Category:Western film and television actors - That brings up another alternative if the actors aren't split between film and television. In that case, if the category is meant to include both media types, it's probably a good idea to include them in the name. Dugwiki
 * Merge/Rename to category:Western film actors. Note that this is the only sub-category of Category:Film actors which is separated by genre. - jc37 04:55, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. A large number of actors who worked in a certain time would have worked in one or more Westerns. Categorizing every actor based on every genre that they've worked in will rapidly bloat actor articles' categories. -Sean Curtin 00:27, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

The following proposal is in line with the main category:Power stations and the by-country categories.

Category:Occupations by nationality to Category:People by occupation and nationality
 * Rename, as a follow up to the item below. The word order reflects that in the names of the subcategories Brammen 12:58, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Alternative suggestion I think having both "People by occupation and nationality" and "People by nationality and occupation" simultaneously is confusing, in part because "and" is a symmetric word ("A and B" is usually taken to be identical to "B and A"). Instead, I'd suggest possibly renaming them to Category:People sorted by occupation then by nationality and Category:People sorted by nationality then by occupation.  Those are longer names but the sorting difference between the two is clearer, I think. Dugwiki 15:16, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Oppose What conceivable point is served by renaming these? The current names are well established, concise, and ultimately meaningless.  category:nationalities by occupation could be people by nationality and then occupation or people by nationality by occupation or fooians by occupation or people by nationality:occupation or any of a number of phrases that are more or less gobbledygook to anyone who doesn't spend 3 hours a day editing wikipedia categories.  Who cares?  No one is ever going to enter the name in the search box and hit "go".   -- Rick Block (talk) 04:56, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Maybe not, but folk might still see these names and be more rather than less likely to draw inaccurate conclusions about the categories' content. I agree, though, that this case is subtle and probably more cosmetic than substantive. Regards, David Kernow (talk) 14:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * What percentage of visits to a category are made via the search box. 1%? 0.1%? I just don't think it is an important issue here. Surely most people search for articles and reach categories in other ways. Calsicol 11:20, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Rename per nom. This is far clearer. Calsicol 11:19, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Rename, but... The big problem I'm having is the inconsistancy with the naming of the "x by y" categories". For example, most "x by y" categories have members who are all x listed in order of their y, so for example, there is Category:American people by occupation.  The members of this category are all Americans listed by their occupations.  However, Category:Nationalities by occupation which lists categories of occupations listed by their nationalities.  This is backwards.  I remember finding these categories confusing when I first ran into them, but I have since gotten used to it.   I think Category:Nationalities by occupation should be renamed Category:People's occupations (by nationality) or Category:Occupations of people (by nationality) or Category:People by occupation (by nationality).  The current Category:Occupations by nationality could also be renamed Category:People's nationality (by occupation) or Category:Nationality of people (by occupation) or Cateogory:People by nationality (by occupation).  Of these, my choices would be Category:People by occupation (by nationality) and Cateogory:People by nationality (by occupation).  Perhaps there are some better choices. (I also find it interesting that when I posed this very question on the appropriate policy talk page a few months back I got ZERO responses.) --Samuel Wantman 20:22, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete this category which is not as concrete as it might sound to those who aren't sufficiently familiar with the variety of superheroes. Using the term "costume" invokes POV. What if someone's costume is actually a uniform? If somebody wears the same coat all the time, doesn't that become his or her costume? Did Jubilee wear a costume or not? The costumed heroes sometimes do heroics without wearing costumes, and those who don't normally wear costumes have sometimes worn disguises or even costumes. In one of his earliest appearances, Dr. Occult wore a costume before Superman ever did, but otherwise he has always been an uncostumed hero and, as of this writing, is categorized as a superhero without a costume.

Delete. Redundant to Category:'N Sync albums. The title of this category (*NSYNC) is incorrect (the correct way to spell it is 'N Sync). There are no articles in this category anymore. — Moe  00:19, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
