 * Propose merging Category:Pondicherry to Category:Puducherry
 * Nominator's rationale: Merge. Pondicherry is the former name of Puducherry. — Thaejas (talk) 12:24, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * keep and redirect and speedy close There are no contents thus no need to merge. I've kept it and turned it into a redirect since the name Pondicherry is still well known. Since the article is at Puducherry I think we can speedy close this.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 16:11, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes redirect it to Category:Puducherry.Shyamsunder (talk) 00:14, 6 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep as redirect category -- The old spelling is well known so that it is a likely search term, and prevents inadvertent re-creation. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:07, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

(For the nominator's future reference, this could have been listed at WP:CFD/S. WP:TWINKLE makes it all very easy. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 01:40, 10 May 2014 (UTC)
 * The result of the discussion was: speedy rename. WP:C2C per convention of Category:Rivers of England.

Rename Category:Rivers on the Isle of Wight to ♦  Dr. Blofeld  09:39, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
 * rename per nom WP uses 'on' for manmade structures atop the land and 'of' for natural features. Hmains (talk) 03:46, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting roslagsbanan maps


 * Nominator's rationale: Page only contained Roslagsbanan, no maps at all. Aaron-Tripel (talk) 07:22, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete Creator of this category intended to make a Wikipedia commons category, which was already present. I explained the difference.--Aaron-Tripel (talk) 07:47, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. The Bushranger One ping only 00:58, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting make this a talk


 * Nominator's rationale: This is not an appropriate use of categorization. DexDor (talk) 06:38, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep I'm using this category to organize my user articles; in this case I'm using this category as a tag for potential presentations at WikiMedia events, viz., WikiCon USA 2014. Perhaps, I've overlooked user categories; is there a category tool for user pages, is there a way to add categories in the user namespace? --CmdrDan (talk) 07:09, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Typically, the only categories for User space are ones that indicate groups that the editor is allied with (Wikipedians who are engineers, who belong to WikiProject Spain, etc.) or who are sockpuppet accounts. Even on drafts in your user space, categories should be added only when the article is moved into mainspace. It's not appropriate to have personal categories that don't serve organizational purposes for en.wikipedia. Maybe there is something similar you can use at WikiMedia.org? Liz  Read! Talk! 01:34, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per G3. Nerd in Texas (talk) 15:39, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

Category:University of al-Karaouine alumni

 * 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: rename. The fact there was "no sign of a move discussion" is being used more and more often as an oppose (especially at CFDS), and this isn't a good thing; WP:BOLD is still a thing, and there's no reason to consider an uncontroversial move a problem. The Bushranger One ping only 01:02, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:University of al-Karaouine alumni to Category:University of al-Qarawiyyin alumni
 * Nominator's rationale: per main article University of al-Qarawiyyin Tachfin (talk) 06:12, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep – the main article seems to have been moved yesterday from University of al-Karaouine and I can see no sign of a move discussion. There is also Category:University of al-Karaouine. Oculi (talk) 12:58, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Didn't notice that but I agree with that move. I don't think a formal request would be opposed as the current spelling is more popular in RS, and is in line with standard English transliteration of Arabic. (al-Qarawiyyin scholar al-Karaouine on shcolar also britannica) --Tachfin (talk) 13:28, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Rename. I don't see a reason to keep the category spelled differently than the article. No one seems to be opposing the move of the article. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:50, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Category:Films that pass the Bechdel test

 * 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. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:49, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting films that pass the bechdel test


 * Nominator's rationale: Not how we normally categorize films and possibly trivia. The only current member of this category doesn't mention the film having this characteristic.  Not WP:DEFINING. DexDor (talk) 04:48, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete as being non-defining. And also see this discussion too.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 08:46, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
 * delete clearly not defining, esp since we have discussed examples of bechdel test passes and fails that happened long after the film was released.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 11:47, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-defining. Possibly listify. Pichpich (talk) 14:31, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Listify per Pichpich. Liz  Read!</b> <b style="color:#006400;">Talk!</b> 01:37, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
 * delete Listify would sound good except that such a list is sure to be a WP:OR magnet, and it's unlikely that the coverage in citations is going to be very complete. Mangoe (talk) 12:46, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
