 * images with a rationale but unknown copyright status


 * Nominator's rationale: Empty, redundant to Category:Wikipedia files with unknown copyright status, the category that the common template Di-no license categorizes in. It even contains the shortcut and the category tracker for the "Wikipedia files with unknown copyright status" category. The Evil IP address (talk) 16:59, 4 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete per nominator, together with Category:All images with a rationale but unknown copyright status and Template:Images with a rationale but unknown copyright status subcategory starter. These were created by User:ST47, and used by the outdated User:ST47/rnt, and User:ST47/notagr. I have dropped him a note. Debresser (talk) 07:16, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

 * ford 300


 * Nominator's rationale: Delete. We've renamed all the NASCAR race categories to categories based on their racetracks, but this one's a bit different. All the ones we renamed were part of the Sprint Cup Series, the main NASCAR circuit. This is part of the Nationwide Series, which is (kind of) a minor league circuit. None of the other Nationwide races have categories, so this one doesn't need one either. (It's already in Category:NASCAR Nationwide Series races, so we don't need a rename.)--Mike Selinker (talk) 13:23, 4 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. With only two articles it is scarcely needed. Insert optional quip about Ford 500 here.- choster (talk) 20:03, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: Keep.  Useful suggestions for reorganising categorisation in this area have been made, however at this stage their implementation is beyond the scope of Cfd.  --  X damr  talk 16:57, 13 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Propose merging
 * Category:Majority Leaders of the United States House of Representatives to Category:Party leaders of the United States House of Representatives
 * Category:Minority Leaders of the United States House of Representatives to Category:Party leaders of the United States House of Representatives
 * Nominator's rationale: Merge. Right now, there's a category for Majority leaders (which has 21 articles) and a category for Minority leaders (which has 2 articles). I suggest merging the two into one category which could also allow whips to be included.  Thus we'd have a more inclusive category.  Many Reps go from Whip, to leader, to majority, back to minority, and it makes better sense to capture that in one category.  Let's leave Speakers separate, though. —Markles  11:48, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Also, I notice that the nominator's proposal omits the existing category of minority leaders, and would leave us with a separate category for the minority leader but the majority. That seems perverse. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:01, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Tentative oppose. I don't know the structure of the US Congress as well as I know that of Westminster or the Oireachtas, but my impression from this side of the pond is that in Congress the position of Majority leader or Minority leader is a much more high-profile position than that of a whip, and that Majority leader is the more significant of those two. It seems to me that it would be more appropriate to create a new which could include whips, and to make both  and  sub-categories of that.
 * PS Just spotted the minority leaders in a separate nomination below, so will merge the two discussions. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:03, 4 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose Merges The distinction between majority and minority leader is an important one. While there will be some minority leaders who become majority leader after a change in control, the distinction is still worth making. Alansohn (talk) 21:30, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps Delete and reorganize into Category:Democratic Floor Leaders of the United States House of Representatives and Category:Republican Floor Leaders of the United States House of Representatives. We avoid double-tagging articles for those in charge when control changes, and the relatively ambiguous "Party leaders" nomenclature (Party leaders of the United States House of Representatives notwithstanding, the top leader of the majority is actually the Speaker). The lengthy names are unfortunate, but at least if we specify the U.S. House, we don't need to dab the party names, either.- choster (talk) 02:12, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I like that idea, because it reduces category clutter on biographies. The only problem is familiarity: aren't these new terms much less known han Majority Leader and Minority Leader? -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 02:52, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

 * shipsbywikipedian7878


 * Nominator's rationale: Delete, per numerous precedents against wikipedians creating categories for pages in their own userspace. I appreciate the desire of an editor to keep track of all their subpages, but the job can be dine quite simply without a category by using Special:Prefixindex. In this case the link is http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix=Wikipedian7878&namespace=2 . -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:30, 4 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Note. Category creator notified. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:37, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Users can keep track of pages in their userspace using Special:PrefixIndex, (e.g., Special:PrefixIndex/User:Wikipedian7878), as noted by the nom, or by maintaining a list of subpages on their user page. There is ample precedent for deletion of similar personal userspace categories. -- Black Falcon (talk) 17:49, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Category:Educationists by nationality

 * 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: keep. Will manually populate shortly. —  ξ xplicit  00:39, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
 * educationists by nationality


 * Nominator's rationale: Delete. This is a redirect to Category:Educationists that is supposed to remain empty. However, the template Fooian fooers contains an "#ifexist" clause that automatically populates this category if it exists, and as a result Category:Irish educationists has been placed in this category incorrectly, even though it is also in the redirect target category.  Deleting this category will eliminate the duplicate categorization and allow the template to function as intended. R'n'B (call me Russ) 10:43, 4 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep. I guess this is my fault, because I spent a few hours yesterday adding Fooian fooers (or its cousins in ) to all sub-acts of, and it was me who added the "#ifexist" clause to Fooian fooers. I still think that the "#ifexist" clause was an improvement, because it removed a pointless redlink from many categories, but I hadn't considered this side-effect. However, I don't think that the existence of one link to a redirect is a good enough reason to remove that useful redirect. A permalink to a redirect is ugly, but I think that not having the redirect is likely to impede navigation. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:21, 4 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Query Why is Category:Educationists by nationality supposed to be empty and not a parent to the various Category:Fooian educationists in the usual fashion? Occuli (talk) 14:46, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * There seems to be a general convention that a Category:Fooers by nationality is created only if necessary to distinguish nationality from other ways of organising Fooers. In this case there are two such categories:  and, so I think it would be a good idea to create  and populate . -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:51, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment Having just created two more national subcats of Category:Educationists, I suggest that the best solution to this is to create Category:Educationists by nationality as a proper category, and populate it. It would start with 25 sub-cats, which seems plenty to justify its existence. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:03, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Vs. (series) to Category:Capcom series
 * Propose merging Category:VS. Capcom series to the renamed category.
 * Nominator's rationale: Not quite too sure what to name this category, but its current name is very ambiguous. Perhaps rename to or something similar, but keeping as is would be very obscure. —  ξ xplicit  06:52, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Rename to Category:Capcom crossover fighting games. I'm sure I've never heard this as "Vs." (that's this collectible card game system, which also features Marvel characters). Most of these articles have the term "crossover fighting game" in them, so that seems like a good name for the category.--Mike Selinker (talk) 01:33, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Vs. (video game series) and Vs. (Capcom franchise) are the best I can come up with. Whatever it'll be called, you may want to keep the games SNK created in mind, regardless the series belongs to Capcom.  « ₣M₣ »  16:56, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Rename all per nominator, for consistency, and to clarify that these are not necessarily pages which "will" be speedy deleted; they are "candidates", because they appear in these categories when tagged by an editor who asserts that zie believes the fit the criteria. They won't be speedy-deleted unless an admin agrees with the nomination, and they won't be speedy-deleted in there is an objection.

 * Use "Wikipedia" in the naming of whatever names are chosen, since these are maintenance categories. 70.29.210.242 (talk) 04:21, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename - more descriptive, slightly less bitey, and shows the hierarchy better. - 2/0 (cont.) 09:54, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename per nom. If we were to add Wikipedia to the name, and I don't have any particular feeling on the matter, then we should also do it to the main category at Category:Candidates for speedy deletion. It's less of an issue than it might be, since these are hidden categories. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 13:16, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename all per nom and per BrownHairedGirl. Anything to get rid of that annoying "This category is being considered for renaming" template from the pages.

 * Comments - it isn't eponymous as there is no Knowles family article. It is certainly ambiguous as Knowles (surname) is a common name. Category:Beyoncé Knowles family might be defensible ... I suppose being related to Beyoncé might well be defining. Occuli (talk) 15:53, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep per Debresser. Redirects are cheap, and there is no claim that this one causes any problems.

 * Propose renaming Category:Districts of the Constitutional Province of Callao to Category:Districts of Callao Region
 * Nominator's rationale: Category:Districts of Peru is subcategorized by region first and by province second. Since the Constitutional Province of Callao is the only province in Callao Region (see Callao and Provinces of Peru), I think that the category should be at the level of the region. Also, as "Callao Region" is a proper noun and should not, therefore, be preceded by a definite article, I have dropped the "the" in the proposed name. If there is no objection to this second change, then I will nominate the approximately 200 similarly-titled Peru-related categories in the next day or two.

 * Propose merging Category:Provinces of the Callao Region to Category:Provinces of Peru
 * Nominator's rationale: The Callao Region of Peru contains only one province, the Constitutional Province of Callao (see Callao and Provinces of Peru). In light of this, and since the article Callao is already in Category:Callao Region, this added category layer seems to be unnecessary. On the other hand, its existence ensures that Category:Provinces of Peru contains subcategories for all 25 regions of Peru. (Category creator and WikiProject Peru notified using Template:Cfd-notify)
 * At this time, I am neutral, and merely want to bring the issue here for discussion. By the way, any thoughts as to whether articles about provinces of Peru should be categorized into the regional subcategories only or into both Category:Provinces of Peru and the regional subcategories?

 * Nominator's rationale: This is a userbox-populated user category for a joke WikiProject and, as such, does not facilitate encyclopedic collaboration between users. Displaying the userbox is quite fine, but the category serves as nothing more than a "bottom-of-the-page" notice and is merely a byproduct of the userbox. The category should be deleted as overcategorization on the basis of a characteristic that is primarily humorous or satirical, and per consistent precedent for deletion of similar categories grouping users by defunct or non-existent project. -- Black Falcon (talk) 01:49, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
