Category:Media of North America

 * 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. ~ Rob 13 Talk 04:25, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Propose merging:
 * Category:Media of North America to Category:Media in North America
 * Category:Media of South America to Category:Media in South America
 * Nominator's rationale: Redundant. As we recently renamed the by-country categories to "Media in foo", we should probably stick with that convention for these ones, too. See also Categories for discussion/Log/2016 July 3. --PanchoS (talk) 23:13, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom These are duplicate categories. Dimadick (talk) 00:04, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. ~ Rob 13 Talk 04:14, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting spokane


 * Nominator's rationale: With no parent categories, no meaningul category text and containing just one page (in User namespace) it is very unclear what this category is intended to be for. DexDor(talk) 22:44, 9 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete per nominator....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 23:43, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Presumably redundant with Category:Spokane, Washington. RevelationDirect (talk) 11:46, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per redundancy. DavidLeighEllis (talk) 03:21, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete – it actually looks more like it's related to the Spokane language, so it's not redundant to the category about the city, but all in all just looks like a test by that can be safely deleted. Ibadibam (talk) 18:41, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

Category:Media franchises articles

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. ~ Rob 13 Talk 04:16, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting media franchises articles


 * Nominator's rationale: I have previously nominated this page for speedy deletion on the grounds that it was empty, but the request was declined. Although the page does contain subcategories, all of the subcategories are empty. Furthermore, this category is a duplicate of Category:Media franchises, which seems to be the main venue for the articles that would otherwise be in this category. Therefore, I propose that it be deleted. Gluons12  talk 22:28, 9 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete – The category itself is not empty, though it contains mostly empty categories. It looks like this is the former maintenance category for WikiProject Media franchises, which was superseded by the tree at Category:WikiProject Media franchises articles created by, I'm guessing over some objection about grammar. I can't find any record of a discussion about this change, but it's been stable for several years, so we may as well leave things as they are and delete the old categories.

 * The result of the discussion was: relisted here. ~ Rob 13 Talk 07:45, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Gostaresh Foolad F.C. players to Category:Gostaresh Foulad F.C. players
 * Nominator's rationale: It was pointed out to me that the corresponding article, Gostaresh Foulad F.C., spells the club name differently. If this spelling is correct, then we should rename the category. Note that the article has been moved multiple times. The name "Gostaresh Foulad Tabriz" is used on the logo in the article's infobox. Stefan2 (talk) 22:22, 9 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment I guess the logo contains a spelling mistake, compare article names Foolad F.C. and a lot more of them. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:41, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

Category:16th century in El Salvador

 * The result of the discussion was: relisted here. ~ Rob 13 Talk 18:49, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting 16th century in el salvador


 * Nominator's rationale: El Salvador clearly didn't exist in the 16th century. For consistency, it should either (1) be deleted and the pages upmerged to Category:16th century in Central America or even Category:16th century in North America; or (2) it can renamed to Category:Colonial El Salvador to follow Category:Colonial Guatemala and Category:Colonial Panama like at Category:Colonial Central America. Ricky81682 (talk) 19:25, 9 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Rename to Category:Colonial El Salvador, which did exist since 1525 and was included within the Kingdom of Guatemala in 1609.GreyShark (dibra) 20:13, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
 * REname but to Category:Audencia of Guatemala. That in 1609 was promoted to be the Captaincy General of Guatemala.  Strictly the inclusion of events of 1525-1540 would be an anachronism.  Nevertheless, since the Audencia did not exist for as long as 100 years, we do not need a split by centuries.  El Salvador categories for the period from 1609 should be in those the Category:Captaincy General of Guatemala, which might merit a split by centuries.  At present the article on the Captaincy General or "kingdom" seems to be structured as if it were a new country (or colony), when it was only restructured with a new title in 1609.  I am reluctant to encourage the use of the translation to "kingdom", which implies full sovereignty for a person who was actually no more than a viceroy.

Category:Userbox user templates

 * 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 to . עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 17:10, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Userbox user templates to Category:Userbox-related user templates
 * Nominator's rationale: For clarity of purpose/scope. This category is for templates about userboxes. However, due to the vague name, people have been mistaking it for a "misc. userboxes" or "all userboxes" dumping ground, so some items in it need to be recategorized into particular subcats of Category:Userboxes after the rename. Also, it has some stuff in it that belongs in Category:Userbox arrangement templates.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  14:25, 9 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment shouldn't "Wikipedia" be the first term, since these are not encyclopedic. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 01:57, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Rename to Category:User templates about userboxes. I don't think the proposed name is very clear either. It sounds like any userbox could be a "userbox-related user template". While I can appreciate your desire for consistency within the category tree (which generally uses X-related user templates as the category names), I think this name would be much clearer. ~ Rob 13 Talk 18:56, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Wikipedia editing-related user templates. ~ Rob 13 <sup style="margin-left:-1.0ex;">Talk 18:51, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Edit user templates to Category:Editing-related user templates
 * Nominator's rationale: Just so it makes some sense in English. I thought of "Edits-related user templates", because they're mostly edit counters and the like, but a few are broader, about topical editing preferences, editing approaches or philosophies, etc., so they'd have to be recategorized if the name were that narrow. (And the edit-counters need to move into the Category:Statistical userboxes subcat with the rest of them, anyway). Regardless, "edit user templates" sounds like a request, or templates relating to the editing of users, or something else confusing.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  13:31, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting tennessee volunteer nba players


 * Nominator's rationale: This category seeks to intersect status as an NBA player with alma mater. This is WP:OVERCATEGORIZATION in that Category:Tennessee Volunteers basketball players already exists (and is a sub-category of "Univeristy of Tennessee alumni") as do categories for each NBA franchise. The category also sets a precedent for 350+ other potential categories, none of which would be replacing any current ones. A list of players from UT who played in the NBA is interesting information, but would be best captured as a list on the Tennessee Volunteers basketball page or as a stand-alone list along the lines of List of Florida Gators men's basketball players in the NBA. Rikster2 (talk) 12:20, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Strong delete per nom. This sets a bad precedent of an unnecessary and non-defining characteristic of these players. Jrcla2 (talk) 19:02, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Note – Please also delete incorrect Category:Tennessee Volunteers NBA players which serves as a bad redirect. Jrcla2 (talk) 19:04, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Propose Renaming/Expanding Category:Smithsonian Institution-related animals to Category:National Zoological Park (United States)
 * Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCASSOC and WP:COMMONNAME
 * This category sounds like it might involve taxidermy in Smithsonian exhibits but it actually groups individual animals--mostly pandas--in the National Zoological Park (United States), which is under the Smithsonian. I doubt many zoo goers are aware of the parent company so the category name is unclear, grouping animals as a "museum collection" doesn't match the rest of that tree, and expanding the scope would allow us to add related articles: 1, 2, 3, 4. (Alternatively, if we really wanted to keep the current scope, Category:Individual animals at the National Zoological Park (United States) would be clearer if a bit wordy.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:57, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Note: The creator, notified Kumioko, was banned indefinitely but I added this discussion to WikiProject Smithsonian Institution. – RevelationDirect (talk) 02:57, 9 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Support main proposal per nom. (Wrt the alternative proposal, I couldn't find any other Category:Individual animals at foo and~developing a tree for categories like that would probably result in very thinly populated categories.) Marcocapelle (talk) 06:54, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Propose Deleting Category:Letelier-Moffitt Human Rights Award
 * Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCAWARD (WP:NONDEFINING)
 * The Letelier-Moffitt Human Rights Award is given out twice a year by the IPS for advocating human rights in the Americas. Winners have included Harry Belafonte, Families Speak Out, Pete Seeger and, despite their non-American focus, the Free South Africa Movement. The award is notable enough for an article but doesn't seem defining to the individual recipients; the articles in this category generally mention the award only in passing. If we decided to delete this category, the recipients are already listed here. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:54, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting ed block courage award recipients


 * Nominator's rationale: Certainly an example of a non-defining characteristic. Also, WP:OCAWARD. Could be converted to a list at Ed Block Courage Award, but I question whether that's even a good idea, given how many players receive this award. One player from each of the 32 NFL teams has received this award each season for a good while now. ~ Rob 13 <sup style="margin-left:-1.0ex;">Talk 01:58, 9 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Support More per WP:OVERLAPCAT All of these players are already categorized by their team and their position. I don't think this third category is defining and is unlikely to aid navigation. If anyone wants to list this, I'd recommend one list for each of the 32 teams. RevelationDirect (talk) 03:30, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Listify then delete as we usually do with NN OCAWARD cases. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:47, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Winners of an award can either be in a list or category or both. For example List of Nobel laureates in Chemistry, or Category:Nobel laureates in Chemistry Jason from nyc (talk) 23:34, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination. Jweiss11 (talk) 03:29, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
