 * Nominator's rationale:


 * Rename per nom, for clarity and per convention. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 08:50, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Rename, I created the category and mea culpa for the poor name, not just because of the abbreviation but also the inappropriate use of "by state" designation. Suggest similar move for its sister category, Category:U.S. state upper houses by state to Category:State upper houses in the United States. I will add a CFR tag there to this discussion.

 * 'Delete per nom, esp per WP:OC. Most of the articles are interlinked through Template:Richard Pryor, and that template should be expanded to include his other works. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 10:16, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

 * rudolf nissim award winners


 * Nominator's rationale:


 * Listify and delete - It's an award for new orchestral works, I believe, and it would be far better to have some information about the award and a list of award-winners than this category. --lquilter 16:58, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Is the award even notable enough for an article? Otto4711 17:19, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm relatively inclusionist on awards, because they can be quite niche-y and they provide useful signposts about biographical notability. That said, the award has been around for 20+ years and some of the google-juice on it describes it as "one of the most coveted awards in classical composition" . Nissim established the award with a bequest to ASCAP, so I'm not sure that he's notable, but the award seems -- at first glance -- to be. --lquilter 17:32, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * OK. I don't have strong feelings either way, just didn't find anything all that impressive in a cursory Google search of my own. Otto4711 18:22, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band albums to Category:Nitty Gritty Dirt Band albums

The result of the debate was '''delete, all articles miscategorized. Recreation permissible if any articles are found or written that do match'''. Kbdank71 17:06, 29 October 2007 (UTC)


 * ancient philippians
 * Rename to Category:Ancient people from Philippi, or Category:People from Philippi. In general, denonyms are a bad idea, and this one is particularly obscure, nothing to do with the Philippines. -- Prove It (talk) 15:19, 23 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete Please look at the category contents before nominating! None of these people are from Philippi at all - most fought in the famous battle there, one founded it etc etc. The category is too vague & not needed. Johnbod 07:36, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - with the exception of two kings of Macedonia, all those listed seem merely to have visited Philippi, if that. Accordingly, the category serves no useful purpose.  Peterkingiron 23:17, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete; it's no more or less valid than any other "People from X" category, but yeah, none of these people are actually from there. The cat can be recreated if some articles can be added to it about people actually FROM the place in question (I couldn't find any).  Ford MF 14:47, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

 * mauricie politicians


 * Quite apart from the non-standard capitalization here, AFAIK it's not generally considered useful on Wikipedia to subclassify politicians by a region, particularly when that regional category ends up as a random jumble of mayors, provincial legislators, federal Members of Parliament and senators. A list would be one thing. A category, no. Delete. Bearcat 06:39, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Merge - I'd have commented earlier but this seems like such a no-brainer... Otto4711 13:56, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: too often lately I've seen closings get overturned simply because there were too few participants in the discussion (for example, just the nominator). As an admin who closes CFD often, I'm going to relist once any that have no other opinions.  --Kbdank71 14:39, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Nothing personal intended. Otto4711 14:47, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I know. I thought it was a no-brainer myself, and just thought I should explain why I was relisting it.  --Kbdank71 16:42, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

The result of the debate was no consensus. Kbdank71 16:31, 29 October 2007 (UTC)


 * former designated terrorist organizations


 * Nominator's rationale:

However, there is a further problem with this category, because its meaning is unclear: does it mean organisations formerly designated as terrorist (such as the now-peaceful ANC), or defunct organisations which were in their time labelled terrorist? (e.g. the Irgun) The category currently includes both sorts, which merely demonstrates the confusion about its purpose. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 23:45, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * keep as is; terrorist is what these orgs were designated as and WP is not to use weasel words just to get around inconvenient truth. The MOS states 'terrorist' can be used when the organization is 'designated as such'.  This and other similar categories include the government/body making the 'designation'.  This is not POV; this is just showing the org had the designation Hmains 16:20, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per HmainsTanbace 20:48, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Rename to Category:Former terrorist designated organizations to make it clear that the members of the category have been designated as terrorists by an external source, as is required by the MOS. This should help reduce any POV concerns, but I wouldn't be opposed to a simple keep either. <em style="font-family:Bradley Hand ITC;color:blue">Hers <em style="font-family:Bradley Hand ITC;color:gold">fold  (t/a/c) 21:06, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is problematic. I would prefer to see the "designated terrorist" categorisations removed entirely, because they reflect one particular worldview, and are applied selectively, so under this approach the ANC is labelled as terrorist by wikipedia, but the Contras are not: that's about as POV as you can get.
 * Suggestion - In that case, would it be more feasible to split this into two categories: Category:Former organizations designated as terrorists and Category:Organizations formerly designated as terrorists? This keeps the antecedents clear, while still retaining the aspect of separation from the designation itself. <em style="font-family:Bradley Hand ITC;color:blue">Hers <em style="font-family:Bradley Hand ITC;color:gold">fold  (t/a/c) 00:30, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I like your suggestions but its missing who designated them as terrorist. If its the US State Departmant than it should be Category:Former organizations designated as terrorist by US State Department. Otherwise its Wikipedia labeling them as such. --VartanM 01:51, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * That's a bit better, but it still perpetuates the problem of categories which apply the label "terrorist" to groups which were disapproved of by the major Western states, without the same tag being applied to groups which met with their approval. That's a grave breach of Neutral point of view, which is a fundamental principal of the project. This sort of material should be covered in lists, where the bare labels can be accompanied by some wider explanation of the nature of that particular group. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 09:20, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

<hr style="width:50%;"/>
 * Delete per nom. Doczilla 00:54, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete NPOV. Organizations that turn away from terrorism should be given the respect for doing so, not once again tied to it. --Voidvector 10:38, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Hmains, or split per Hersfold. The "designated" is the way we have chosen to solve the problems of definition, and deletion would be wholly unjustified censorship. Johnbod 12:40, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Categorisation is a method of sorting content. Censorship might be a relevant word if we were discussing the deletion of articles, but that's not wht CfD is for. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:12, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and split per Hersfold & Johnbod. King of the North East  (T/C) 01:26, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep terrorist is to be avoided, but as described in the article Designated terrorist organizations, the label has real world consequences - it's not WP saying that these organizations were terrorists, it is that we're saying that someone designated them as terrorists which had the consequences described in the article. Carlossuarez46 22:32, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Kbdank71 13:04, 23 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Split into Category:Defunct designated terrorist organizations for orgs that went out of business while still bearing the designation and Category:Organizations formerly designated as terrorist for those orgs that still exist and are no longer designated. For whatever reason we don't seem to care much for the word "defunct" in category names (can't imagine why, it's a perfectly good word) but in this instance the potential for confusion is too great to use variations on the word "former" in both category names. Otto4711 17:22, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * That's better than any other proposal for renaming or splitting, but per my reasons above, I'd still prefer deletion. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:22, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Support suggestion of Otto4711. It is entirely appropriate for "organisations designated as terrorist" to exist.  Accordingly, those de-designated need a category.  I suspect that the criterion for includion is a US state department designation, but the UK government has a similar designation, I think "proscribed" organisations.

 * Propose renaming Category:Brewing to Category:Brewing (beer)
 * Nominator's rationale:


 * Rename per nom, and salt Category:Brewing to prevent re-creation. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:00, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * comment Is this category supposed to include Beer brands, beer brewing companies, and beer breweries (the building)? Pick one or more.   Maybe the category name can then be made to be inclusive of all that is to be included.  Hmains 02:06, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I think it is clear that this is for the process. I'm not sure how this area needs to be changed, but creating Category:Beer brands, Category:Brewing companies (beer) and Category:Breweries (buildings) seems to be reasonable.  I'm not convinced that we need to break out the buildings by product at this point since I did not see many articles that would fit there.  Still not sure about the parents.

 * Oppose - so where would we put cider-brewing, the brewing stage of whisky production, etc. Peterkingiron 23:29, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
