Category:Defunct shopping malls in Dallas-Fort Worth

 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was: merge. Kbdank71 13:59, 21 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Suggest merging Category:Defunct shopping malls in Dallas-Fort Worth to Category:Defunct shopping malls in the United States
 * Nominator's rationale: Merge There are no others like it in the parent category. There are other markets in the parent category that have five or more dead malls to their name, so why does Dallas-Fort Worth need to be separated out? Raymie Humbert (TrackerTV) (receiver, archives) 22:47, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Upmerge - the parent category is not so enormous that subdivision by metropolitan area is warranted. By state subdivision isn't warranted at this point so by metroplex certainly isn't. Otto4711 (talk) 23:36, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: Withdrawn. Vegaswikian (talk) 22:10, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * without borders organisations


 * Nominator's rationale: Inclusion is based on having the phrase without borders in the article's title. Clearly OCAT.  Vegaswikian (talk) 19:21, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep - I just fixed up the explanation for the category to make it clear that these org's (and their articles) have much more in common than merely their names. It would be silly not to group them together in a category. Cgingold (talk) 23:11, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * keep The common purpose of these organizations is what makes them notable, thus the category. Hmains (talk) 00:31, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep names are not coincidental, but copycats. Johnbod (talk) 03:02, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per Cgingold and Hmains. usefull. --Bduke (talk) 05:48, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Regional NGOs

 * The result of the discussion was: rename all, Category:Caribbean NGOs to Category:Non-governmental organizations of the Caribbean, et cetera. Angus McLellan  (Talk) 10:22, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Caribbean NGOs to Category:Non-governmental organizations of the Caribbean
 * Category:Caribbean NGOs to Category:Non-governmental organizations of the Caribbean
 * Category:Eastern Europe NGOs to Category:Non-governmental organizations of Eastern Europe
 * Category:Europe NGOs to Category:Non-governmental organizations of Europe
 * Category:Southeast Asia NGOs to Category:Non-governmental organizations of Southeast Asia
 * Nominator's rationale: Rename. Expand the acronym per recent decisions here. Personally I think this series, including the Africa one below should be deleted as they are too small at this time and are not needed. If the discussion supports deletion, I would not have any objections. Also based on the introduction for some of these categories it may be justified to add 'based in' to the name resulting in Category:Non-governmental organizations based in Foo. Vegaswikian (talk) 18:59, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Support renaming as proposed, assuming that the outcome of the ongoing discussion on this topic is consistent with the earlier decision. — Lincolnite (talk) 19:11, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I assume you are limiting this to the discussion on the acronym expansion which does not appear to be at issue. Vegaswikian (talk) 20:02, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Rename per last discussion.-- Lenticel ( talk ) 03:27, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was: merge Category:Africa NGOs to Category:Non-governmental organizations of Africa. Angus McLellan  (Talk) 10:22, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Suggest merging reverse merging Category:Non-governmental organizations of Africa to Category:Africa NGOs
 * Nominator's rationale: Merge the two cats. Category:Africa NGOs is the title consistent with sister cats . Sister cats look likely to change, per discussion above. It looks as though the format Category:Non-governmental organizations of Foo is what we're going with, in which case I support reverse merging. Lincolnite (talk) 17:59, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Reverse Merge. Current and recent discussions here clearly support the need to expand this acronym as is normal for categories. Vegaswikian (talk) 18:52, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge or Reverse merge - 'Category:Africa NGOs' is a pagename that is very easy to deal with. --Mr Accountable (talk) 14:37, 14 July 2008 (UTC) ''(category creator)
 * Reverse Merge in the light of recent discussions. Peterkingiron (talk) 21:06, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Suggest merging Category:Faroese grammar to Category:Faroese language
 * Nominator's rationale: Category contains only one article, Faroese grammar, which would be better recategorised to Category:Faroese language and Category:Grammars of specific languages. FordPrefect42 (talk) 15:02, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom -- no need for a category when there's only one article with a clear, self-explanatory title. Cgingold (talk) 23:16, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:08MAYBTOPG logo.gif to Category:Punggol Sapphire Logo.gif

Category:700 home run club

 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was: delete. Kbdank71 13:58, 21 July 2008 (UTC)


 * 700 home run club


 * Nominator's rationale: Delete - small category with next to no growth potential. The closest active player to 700 home runs is Ken Griffey, Jr. and seeing as how it took him four years to go from 500 to 600 homers the category isn't going to increase beyond its current membership any time soon. 700 home run club is a redirect to 500 home run club and the three members of this category are the first three entries on that list.

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. Angus McLellan  (Talk) 10:24, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * the rickrollerz albums


 * Nominator's rationale: Delete. The Rickrollerz was deleted, this category contains only a user subpage. Reverend X (talk) 08:36, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete If we discount the subpage which should not be in a mainspace cat then it is empty with no hope of re population. -Icĕwedg Ё  (ťalķ) 01:07, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Withdrawing rename. Should've checked first; but, the proper name already exists.  Re-catted the two articles which were here, and preparing to delete instead. Neier (talk) 08:17, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: merge. Kbdank71 13:51, 21 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Suggest merging Category:Newspapers of India to Category:Newspapers published in India
 * Nominator's rationale: Merge, categories are essentially duplicate. Target category is older and in the standard format of Category:Newspapers by country. I don't know of any use for having both categories, unless the one contains articles about newspapers not published in India that contain news targeted towards ethnic Indians. However, it doesn't look like this was the intention or the result of the organization.  Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:36, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I have no problems either way. The only reason I created it under that was because it fit will with many subsections which go under the title "Newspapers of (respective city)". Merger is absolutely fine and fits well. Please let me know, when you have completed the merger. --ChiragPatnaik (talk) 03:20, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
