 * Support -- For alumni categories, alumni of a college that amalgamated or was renamed are treated as alumni of the successor. The problem here is similar.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:20, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: rename to . Consensus here was in agreement that the current name of the category was ambiguous, but did not agree on the proposed rename. —  ξ xplicit  00:28, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Santiago to Category:Santiago (city), Chile
 * Nominator's rationale: Santiago needs dismabiguation, both for the kind of place it is and its location. Am willing to speedy rename sub-cats piecemeal should this nom. succeed. Mayumashu (talk) 19:12, 25 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose current category matches article name . MilborneOne (talk) 19:52, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename to Category:Santiago, Chile to match head article Santiago, Chile. The current category name does not match the article name (MilborneOne seems not to have checked), and it is ambiguous: we also have Category:Santiago de Cuba and Category:Santiago, Cape Verde, so there is plenty of scope for confusion. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 20:10, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment that's ambiguous, there's the commune, the conurbation, and the province. 76.66.195.196 (talk) 20:58, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose Per MilborneOne.  Lugnuts  (talk) 09:29, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Lugnuts, did you notice that MilborneOne is wrong, and that the current category name does not actually match the article name? -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:51, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry I did get it wrong, support rename as per article Category:Santiago, Chile and BrownHairedGirl suggestions. Apologies I though I had checked. MilborneOne (talk) 15:39, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename to Category:Santiago, Chile to match main article Santiago, Chile. This is unabmiguous.  I do not think we need to worry about the disticntion between the city and province.  If necessary we could provide the province with a separate category.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:23, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment As the anon contributor mentioned, 'Santiago, Chile' while good as an article page name per WP:Commonname is still too ambiguous a choice as a category name.  Category names should only article names when there isn t an issue of ambiguity. Mayumashu (talk) 02:02, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Power stations in the West Midlands to Category:Power stations in the West Midlands (region)
 * Nominator's rationale: Rename to clarify that its scope is the West Midlands (region) rather than the West Midlands (county), adding the "(region)" disambiguator per convention of . Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:04, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: Rename. England has a county and a region which share the same name, leading to lots of scope for confusion. The parent categories are logically named:
 * West Midlands (region)→Category:West Midlands (region) and West Midlands (county)→Category:West Midlands (county).
 * Most of the sub-cats of the region use the "(region)" disambiguator, and the others are tagged for renaming, but most of the sub-cats of Category:West Midlands (county) do not use the disambiguator. This mass renaming adds the disambiguator to all (or I hope all!) of the sub-cats, for consistency and for clarity. The current ambiguity leads to good-faith editors making the reasonable mistake of thinking these ambiguously named category refer to the region, hence the need for corrections like these:,.
 * I have checked that all these categories do indeed apply to the county rather than to the region, and have disambiguated some categs such as . -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 20:27, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

 * I won't swear to Bob that I have caught every single miscategorisation, but I spent several hours checking these categories and I think I have got all of them. I'm only human, so I may perhaps have missed one or two :( -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:39, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Oppose. Way back when I created the category it was to contain only .ogg file format files, and I see it still contains only those. Why change what's working?  // Halibutt 13:15, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: Rename to expand abbreviation and match the main article name. Darwinek (talk) 09:04, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * No objection, as creator. We could do the same for everything in Category:Malaysian politicians by party, except UMNO which I think should stay UMNO because the full name is almost never used. --Mkativerata (talk) 09:18, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * You are right. Should we make a batch nomination then? - Darwinek (talk) 12:25, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Here is a list for batch nomination. Anyone please feel free to amend the new names. --Mkativerata (talk) 20:30, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Villages in Vermont to Category:Incorporated villages in Vermont
 * Nominator's rationale: Villages in Vermont can be incorporated or unincorporated. The 37 incorporated villages in Vermont are located in this category, and unincorporated villages are located in and ; this category's name should reflect that it contains only the incorporated villages. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 03:56, 25 June 2010 (UTC)


 * What determines whether an unincorporated community in Vermont is a "village" beyond the generic meaning of the word? postdlf (talk) 05:31, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * In New England, "village" is generally used the same way as "unincorporated community" or "hamlet" would be used in other states; see New England town. Villages in Vermont are an exception because they can be incorporated, but unincorporated communities there are still called villages. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 17:52, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. However as a follow on, Category:Unincorporated villages in Vermont needs to be created for the villages contained in the other categories.  It may also be wise to recreate Category:Villages in Vermont as a parent for both.  Now, if nothing in Category:Unincorporated communities in Vermont is a village ....
