 * Category:Video games based on wrestling ([ edit]&#124;talk&#124;[ history]&#124;[ links]&#124;[ watch]&#124;[ logs])</tt>


 * Keep my thinking was that "pro wrestling games" are a not the same as "Video games based on wrestling". Firstly there are computer games in pro wreslting cat that aren't pro wrestling (backyard wresting for example and it could also include amateur wrestling or other forms of wreslting). Equally games aren't video games and could include a range of things including video games. If they are considered to be too close then I'd vote for a merge to "Video games based on wrestling." (Emperor 22:51, 19 May 2007 (UTC))
 * Merge into Category:Professional wrestling games. -Sean Curtin 02:01, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge "Professional wrestling" here refers to the style of wrestling, not to whether or not the wrestling is performed by amateurs. So in this context "backyard wrestling" is in fact an amateur format for engaging in "professional wrestling style competition". Now that being said, Emperor makes a good point that it's possible there is a video game that is based on "collegiate style wrestling" or "Olympic wrestling" or some other form of wrestling other than "professional wrestling".  If that's the case, then the merge should be into the category "Video games based on wrestling" so that it includes all styles of wrestling in one category.  If there are no such games, though, and all the articles are about professional wrestling style competitions, then the merge should be into the already existing category.

 * Propose renaming Category:Animanga images to Category:Anime and manga images
 * Nominator's Rationale:


 * Comment not a neologism, per VfD at Talk:Animanga of 3 Nov 2004. Why the other category was deleted, neologism is obviously not a valid reason for it. 70.55.87.252
 * Reply Be that as it may, that's not the primary reason for this nomination, consistency within a subject is. --tjstrf talk 06:21, 20 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Rename Probably not a big deal, but whatever. -- Ned Scott 07:36, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Rename all per nom. I disagreed that there was previously a convention on this issue, hence my opposition to similarly-titled speedy-CfR requests.  However, I suppose this is now the new convention (and probably an improvement).  Hence, this also ought to be established as a new formalised convention worthy of speedy renaming.

 * Strong keep as part of Category:Peace treaties. It clearly is possible to define a peace treaty, as ilustrated by the existence of a promising head article on the subject at peace treaty, where the definition is "is an agreement between two hostile parties, usually countries or governments, that formally ends a war or armed conflict." Treaties exist for all sorts of other purposes (trade, arms control, military alliance, dynastic succession etc), but a peace treaty has a particular historical significance as the end-point of a military conflict.  The category is therefore useful to both military historians and diplomatic historians. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:49, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

The result of the debate was No consensus on Battlefield 2 or Total War, as proposed names match naming convention but gathered enough opposition that the naming convention as a whole may need reconsidered. (I could not find a previous discussion on the issue.) Rename Quake 3 -> Quake III as it is a simple title correction which does not change the debated portion of the name.

 * Oppose Not eligible. Haddiscoe 00:24, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Moved from speedy. I think we should consider "mods" versus "modifications" for all of these. I prefer to rename to "mods" in all cases, but I'm a game guy.

 * Category:Jerusalem culture to Culture in Jerusalem, per Category:Jerusalem hierarchy naming.  Tewfik <sup style="color:#888888;">Talk 05:20, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose Neither a speedy nor a good idea. Haddiscoe 11:55, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Non-conformance with "x by y", "x of y", or "x in y" categorization conventions - as this is the only category in the hierarchy using a different system, there is 'no doubt' and it fits speedy criteria 4.  Tewfik <sup style="color:#888888;">Talk 20:58, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose as there are dozens of categories in Category:Culture by city that use the current form there is no doubt that it doesn't fit criteria 4. Category:Jerusalem is irrelevant as it includes categories from different subject areas to which different conventions apply. And in any case, criteria 4 only applies to category types where the convention has already been agreed and listed on the page, not to newly emerging or non-agreed category types. Honbicot 23:21, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I understand that some categories use that formulation, but why are those points good reasons for keeping this category out of the standard employed by the rest of its hierarchy? Whatever categorisation principle is at stake, I don't think its intent is to create non-uniform naming.  Tewfik <sup style="color:#888888;">Talk 01:11, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * The rules are there to stop bad and non-consensual decisions being made in haste. Items either meet the criteria or they don't, and this one doesn't. This is not the place for ongoing debates, so if you want to take this any further, you can move it to the main section. Haddiscoe 00:22, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Moved from speedy.--Mike Selinker 04:11, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose I would prefer to see standardization to "X culture". Annandale 11:32, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Support The WP:NCCAT guideline for categorizing culture of countries calls for "[Nationality] culture," e.g. "American culture" or "Mexican culture." The analogy here would be "Jerusalemite culture," which doesn't sound good, but "Jerusalem culture" is close. To me, the latter convention sounds more like it would be for categories containing sociological studies of the place's culture, or at least a guide to the cultural particularities of the place. "Culture in ...," however, makes it clear that we are talking about cultural insitutions in the place, which is what's relevant for this cat. It is also similar to the "Sports in ..." which is standard.  Glancing at Category:Culture by city, I see that the majority are either "culture in ..." or "... culture", so there is no standard, and we are free to pick. Thus for these reasons, I personally prefer "culture in ..." nadav 06:45, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Strong keep -- I'm going to populate this category right now. This is a subset of economic theory and economic history, and can certainly be a useful category to group articles on topics dealing with economic problems like stock market crashes, recession/depression, inflation, etc.  --Wassermann 06:28, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I created it - it was a vague term trying to capture what I thought was the glimmer of connexion between Paradox of value and Economic calculation problem as examples of thought experiments that problematise economic discourses. I wasn't too happy about it, but I think there is something of a set there if it could be properly captured.  Subsequently an economist editor removed the cats from the above pages without comment, and I didn't feel it was strong enough to defend.--Red Deathy 07:22, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep -- Seems quite useful now that Wassermann has populated it. —Psychonaut 09:59, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Well-defined and clearly useful grouping of issues in the study of economics. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:29, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Category:Kosovo politicians

 * The result of the discussion was: no obvious consensus, note that we have many categories with "Kosovo" in their name, would suggest new discussion in a group nomination.  &gt; R a d i a n t &lt;  10:40, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Kosovo politicians to Category:Kosovar politicians
 * Nominator's Rationale:


 * Comment I don't have time to check this one out now, but there are two questions I would want answered before supporting this nomination: a) is Kosovar the adjective in both the Albanian and Serbian languages? b) Do Serbian politicians in Kosovo accept being called Kosovar rather than Serbian? I have no axe to grind either way, except a reluctance to use adjectival forms if they exclude or mislabel people. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 09:36, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
 * The adjective Kosovar means a person from Kosovo, and AFAIK, Kosovar is an adjective in the English. The category is mainly filled with Kosovar Albanian politicians. People, however, have been making the same mistake over and over again, putting Kosovo instead of Kosovar where Kosovar belongs. --CrnaGora 14:33, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but that doesn't answer my questions. :) --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 02:15, 24 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment ISTR this is a horribly politicised terrain, between calling the state Kosovo and Kosova? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Red Deathy (talk • contribs).
 * I share that concern, though I don't know enough about the subject to be sure. It would be helpful if we had some clarification on what the noun and adjectival terms are in the two languages. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:32, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment BBC seem to use Kosovan. --Red Deathy 15:34, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 * May I point out the Kosovar article, it should help you all realise the mistake made by a lot of people, which I pointed out in the nomination. --CrnaGora 17:20, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Indeed you may. Its only source is the OED, which gives equal status to Kosovar and Kosovan. Although the Kosovar entry has the note "The term is frequently used to refer specifically to an Albanian-speaking inhabitant of Kosovo".  I suspect there is no settled English adjective--Red Deathy 07:29, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Hmm, that would at least suggest that the current name is wrong, even if it doesn't tell us what's right. I will say that "-an" is obviously more of a standard English adjectival ending, but I also don't want to start a political war here, so...I dunno?  I'm tempted to say: go with nom, and see who screams.  Xtifr tälk 07:15, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
