 * The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 08:52, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting 2nd-millennium disestablishments in greenland
 * Propose deleting 2nd-millennium establishments in greenland added 5 July
 * Propose deleting 2nd millennium in greenland added 5 July
 * Nominator's rationale: This category and its subcategories are very sparsely populated and not useful. Haukur (talk) 18:24, 24 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete - As usual with millennial categories, it is unnecessary. It is unnecessary to have anything higher than centuries.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:33, 29 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment to would it not be appropriate to consider this in conjunction with Category:2nd-millennium establishments in Greenland and Category:2nd millennium in Greenland? – Fayenatic  L ondon 21:56, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Happily. There is a lot of empty scaffolding here. Our Greenland coverage is not so tight that we need categories by year, like Category:1982 establishments in Greenland which has one member, or even by decade. It seems to me that doing these categories by centuries only would best serve our readers. Haukur (talk) 22:04, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Added the two additional categories to the nomination and tagged their pages. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:16, 5 July 2019 (UTC)

Category:Company owned by a blind CEO

 * 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 (non-admin closure) . Marcocapelle (talk) 06:18, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting company owned by a blind ceo


 * Nominator's rationale: WP:OC, seems to be created just to highlight a fact about one article. Overly specific with no likelihood of expansion. The category name is also nonsensical, as CEO ≠ owner, though those roles may sometimes coincide in the same person. postdlf (talk) 13:53, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: Withdrawn by nominator. Oculi (talk) 16:13, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
 * organisations based in greenland

 * Category:Scientific organisations based in Greenland to Category:Scientific organizations based in Greenland
 * Category:Sports organisations of Greenland to Category:Sports organizations of Greenland
 * Category:Transport organisations based in Greenland to Category:Transport organizations based in Greenland


 * Rationale - Greenland is closely associated with North America, and also Denmark. We have, , and  (which is a parent category of Category:Organisations based in Greenland). As the official language of Greenland is Greenlandic, with Danish being the other language in use, there is no case to be made for 'organisations'. Oculi (talk) 10:19, 24 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Oppose. This needs greater investigation.  Why are some European countries with a "z" and some with and "s" in the first place?  Why  but ?  Why  but ?  Why  but ?  Shouldn't there be uniformity for the whole region?  And if so, shouldn't it be with an "s", as I believe we usually use British English for European topics?  -- wooden  superman  13:57, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
 * From our article American and British English spelling differences: "The European Union's style guides require the usage of -ise".  -- wooden  superman  14:08, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Also I've just spotted that and its major subcats were speedily moved very recently without discussion to .  These should be moved back to the correct European spelling (BrEng) and all countries brought into line with that.  -- wooden  superman  14:55, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Further digging seems to indicate that this move is against the recent discussion: Village pump (policy), but the discussion there is... complicated. -- wooden  superman  15:22, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
 * It also seems this discussion didn't pass. -- wooden  superman  15:25, 24 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Yes, the RfC gives no support to 'organisation' except vehemently for Australia/New Zealand. Perhaps you could make the case for 'organisation' in Greenland. Oculi (talk) 15:35, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
 * We use British English (not Oxford English) for European topics per WP:ENGVAR. -- wooden  superman  15:37, 24 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Withdrawn by nom - I wish to withdraw this apparently contentious nom (which appears to be re-opening a tedious and long-drawn-out RfC). I have de-tagged the categories. Oculi (talk) 16:08, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Category:People of Italic descent

 * 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. MER-C 08:53, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting people of italic descent


 * Nominator's rationale: delete, this is mixing up linguistics with genealogy. The category contains descendants from people of nationalities and ethnic groups which adopted an Italic language. Descendants from people of those nationalities and ethnic groups do not have Italic ancestors though. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:55, 24 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete -- The term Italic is not even correctly used. It refers to a series of languages found mainly in the Italian peninsula, but is being used for peoples whose native language belongs to the Romance group.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:36, 29 June 2019 (UTC)
