Sri Lankan people of Fooian/Jewish 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 18:36, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting:
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Belarusian-Jewish descent (only contains Jeanne Hoban, who was not "Belarusian")
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Belarusian descent (empty, except for Category:Sri Lankan people of Belarusian-Jewish descent)
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Latvian-Jewish descent (only contains Jeanne Hoban, who was not not "Latvian")
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Latvian descent (empty, except for Category:Sri Lankan people of Latvian-Jewish descent)
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Lithuanian-Jewish descent (only contains Jeanne Hoban, who was not "Lithuanian")
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Lithuanian descent (empty, except for Category:Sri Lankan people of Lithuanian-Jewish descent)
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Ukrainian-Jewish descent (only contains Jeanne Hoban, who was not "Ukrainian")
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Ukrainian descent (empty, except for Category:Sri Lankan people of Ukrainian-Jewish descent)
 * Category:Sri Lankan people of Polish-Jewish descent (only contains Jeanne Hoban, who was not "Polish")
 * Nominator's rationale: This is a classical case of unverified and unsourced Overcategorization by where a user has created a lot of pseudo-categories and parents for one person Jeanne Hoban based on her purported Jewishness, when in fact her article clearly states Jeanne Hoban: "She was born in Gillingham, Kent. Her father, Major William Leo Hoban was a British featherweight boxer and former soldier of Irish roots, her mother, May Irene Free, was a small businesswoman of partly Jewish extraction." providing no sources whatsoever. Basically Jeanne Hoban was born in England and lived in Sri Lanka and she should go into  Category:Sri Lankan people of English descent & Category:British expatriates in Sri Lanka which for some unknown reason she is not placed in.
 * Thank you, IZAK (talk) 21:15, 2 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Judaism-related deletion discussions. 21:36, 2 July 2020 (UTC)  IZAK (talk) 21:36, 2 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete non-notable intersections. Another set of "descent" categories suffering not only the problem IZAK identifies of miscategorization, but the usual problems of objectively determining: how much of Fooian descent must one be and how distant must/can it be; then finding reliable sources tell us that the person is within those objectively determined definitions (without adequate sourcing of any patrilineal claims of descent - not everyone is the child of who they call dad). This also has the additional problem of the inclusion of "Jewish", which may remain purely a religious designation. Does someone become of "Jewish" descent if an ancestor converted to Judaism but their collateral relatives from non-converting ancestors have different ethnicities/descents. If so, then these "descent" categories for some imparted blood-lines are even more useless. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 00:20, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete all per nominator. This is a good catch: a forest of non-notable intersections of attributes not held by the one person placed in the forest, and which would be of dubious value even if there was evidence for their veracity. -- Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 02:27, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete all per above. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:58, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete all -- They seem to exist because one person was distantly of some unspecified eastern European (Ashkenazi) descent. Jewish descent is matrilineal, which might make a Jewish (or of Jewish descent).  The Jews in eastern Europe were generally endogamous, so that Carlossuarez46's comment is misplaced: Being Jewish is not purely an issue of religion, but a quasi-ethnic category.

 * Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. Southeastern Massachusetts "is not an official designation [and] its borders are not exactly defined." User:Namiba 20:00, 2 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Note: nomination cleaned up. @User:Namiba, it would help a lot if you took a few moments to format your CFD nominations in the conventional way.

 * Propose renaming Category:Ex-gay organizations to Category:Organizations in the ex-gay movement
 * Nominator's rationale: Proposed category would better the actual purpose of these groups, and would also better reflect that 'ex-gay' is a contested term. 'Ex-gay organizations' is unclear and suggests that it is the organizations which are 'ex-gay'. Darren-M   talk  19:59, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

If the category exists on en.wp, it follows the name of the head article, which is St. John's Abbey, Kilkenny. If you want the head article to be renamed, then open a WP:RM discussion ... but please note that per WP:COMMONNAME, article titles are follow usage in ... and one editor's imprssion of the views of everyone in Kilkenny is not a WP:Reliable source. -- Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 07:49, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

 * @A.-K. D., renaming the category would not resolve the problem that it fails WP:SMALLCAT. The fact that Commons has lots photos is the abbey is irrelevant; this category exists to group the content on en.wp, and there isn't enough content on en.wp to support a category on en.wp.

That is not a one-off issue: I stumbled across this nest of WP:SMALLCATs when my AWB run adding missing eponymous categories across all topics repeatedly found similar cases of missing eponcats for Japanese towns.

 * @Maculosae tegmine lyncis, try some WP:Civility. The only frivolous/vexatious actions here is your 8-year-long run of creating categories without trying to populate them.  In the case of this category, you didn't even bother to add the head article Bungo-Ōno: it was added on  by Good Ol'factory 9 hours after you created the category.
 * @Maculosae tegmine lyncis, it is not useful to just mention articles that belong in the category in this discussion. Take your responsibility and actually add these articles to the category. (Which you should have done when you created the category.) Marcocapelle (talk) 19:01, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Please could you clarify how the save function works in terms of server storage space/requirements. For instance, say you have a town page of 100k and create ten new categories, adding in the categories one by one (each category addition being of c. 30 bytes); would you then have 1 mb of additional storage requirements or 300 bytes? Is it the diffs that are saved (and somehow combined when you load a page) or the new page in aggregate? Thanks, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 11:18, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * @Maculosae tegmine lyncis: this is nothing to do with storage space. This is about the fact that smallcats are an impediment to navigation, which is the primary purpose of categories (see WP:CAT). --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 11:38, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Such considerations may relate to how particular users edit, which presumably does not relate to whether a category is WP:SMALLCAT compliant or not. Also, when these categories are added, the corresponding eg towns are (?typically? - always, I think, certainly by me) not removed from the Category:Towns of x prefecture category, eg Tawaramoto is both a subcategory and a page, thus obviating such a problem; where then is the impediment? thanks, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 11:54, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

 * To quote the article on the town, "The town consists of the islands of Kume, Ōjima, Ōhajima, Torishima, and Iōtorishima." The island is in the town, so the article belongs in this category. ··· 日本穣 ·  投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe ·  Join WP Japan ! 17:02, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

 * We recently decided to merge Category:Support ships into the proper subcategories of Category:Auxiliary ships in this CFD discussion.

 * Legal death may predate cardiac arrest - as necessarily so in heart transplant donors. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 00:26, 3 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment: There doesn't appear to be a Category:Deaths from ischemic heart disease, which I suspect might be a more accurate categorisation for many of the articles. --Paul_012 (talk) 10:02, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete I have broader concerns about obituary based categorization, but this one is especially non-defining. RevelationDirect (talk) 14:31, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete the cause of death I think is notable, but this is basically how death is determined (as opposed to "brain death", where someone is legally dead before the heart stops.) Carlossuarez46 (talk) 00:26, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
