Category:Fictional element redirects to lists

 * 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 Timrollpickering (talk) 20:51, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Fictional element redirects to lists to Category:Fictional element redirects
 * Propose renaming Category:Redirects from fictional elements to Category:All fictional element redirects
 * Nominator's rationale: While this category is named "Fictional element redirects to lists" the actual template is named R from fictional element since 2014, when it was moved for consistency after the R from fictional character discussions here and here. Additionally, the template text itself mentions that it can be for non-list entries as well. This means that not all redirects tagged with this template are "to lists".


 * This naming would match the one used for fictional location and character redirects: Category:Fictional location redirects and Category:All fictional location redirects and Category:Fictional character redirects and Category:All fictional character redirects, both of which were recently renamed here, and here. If this passes, then followup speedy nominations can be done for the sub-categories. Gonnym (talk) 18:28, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Films featuring hunters to Category:Films about hunters or Category:Films about hunting
 * Nominator's rationale: "Featuring" is not a category format Wikipedia supports. It's too vague to be defining. "About" is the standard. ★Trekker (talk) 14:36, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete contrived category to connect Daffy Duck Hunt with the Predator films; they have nothing to do with one another other than in someone's opinion to be "about" or "featuring" hunters/hunting. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 22:08, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Organization of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union

 * 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 using the alternate targets proposed by Marcocapelle.  bibliomaniac  1  5  18:26, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Structure of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to Category:Organization of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union
 * Propose merging Category:Apparat of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to Category:Organization of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union
 * Propose renaming Category:Apparat of the Communist Party of Ukraine to Category:Organization of the Communist Party of Ukraine
 * Nominator's rationale: These categories (minus the Ukraine one) seem to follow the same purpose. Much of the content is duplicated between several of these categories and/or mother Category:Communist Party of the Soviet Union and/or child Category:Branches of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Proposed target name follows the pattern of parent Category:Organizational structure of political parties. Ukraine subcategory should follow the format chosen for the parent. Place Clichy (talk) 14:07, 29 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Not sure. Category:Structure of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union contains organizational bodies and might be kept (and perhaps renamed) for that purpose. The next one, Category:Apparat of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, seems to be a sort of occupations category and might be kept (and perhaps renamed) for that purpose. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:08, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment. I am not certain if you familiar with what the Communist Party of the Soviet Union is. Nonetheless, if you really think it should be merged, I am ok with it, yet I think we should keep it. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 22:32, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
 * could you also react on my comment ("perhaps rename")? Marcocapelle (talk) 20:19, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , you put it actually exactly in the way I thought could be useful and I would support. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 01:31, 2 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Ok, then I'll put it in bold below (while I'm still open to alternative names, and while I am not changing the Ukrainian nomination). Marcocapelle (talk) 06:37, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Alternative proposal
 * Propose renaming Category:Structure of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to Category:Bodies of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union

The tree could use some organization by type as well, such as categorizing MS7 as a surface-wave magnitude scale. A couple of these are listed for merging into other ones that are synonymous, such as Ms and MS. I don't have enough time to tag all of them. Do they require "the"? –<b style="color:#77b">Laundry</b><b style="color:#fb0">Pizza</b><b style="color:#b00">03</b> ( d c̄ ) 01:25, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Support. Categories are for the benefit of general readers. We don't need them coded so that only experts know what they refer to. Grutness... wha?   04:39, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * If kept, support. I wonder if these maintenance categories are used for any maintenance at all. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:06, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete/Rename if Kept Category:M z is empty and Category:M wpd contains only Seismic magnitude scales. I know they are tagged as admin categories but, if articles are using scale, they should really be tagged indefinitely so I don't think these are being used. (The 2nd through 4th on this list are more plausible--invalid, missing and needing verification--but I want to hear an affirmative case for their use.) Certainly rename if kept. RevelationDirect (talk) 09:12, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete (Rename if Kept). Is there any workflow that uses these categories? (What-links-here doesn't show any) If not then best to delete just to avoid unnecessary complexity. DexDor(talk) 12:17, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment - I agree that these should all be renamed, but I would like a bit of time to work out the most appropriate names for them. Their opacity is of course why some of the proposed renames are not appropriate. I'm someone who actually uses at least some of these categories - I have recently worked on checking some of them to make sure that magnitude scales used actually match the sources, which in quite a few cases they did not. It may be very niche, but they do have value if you're into the more technical aspects of earthquake articles. I would also like to propose a renaming of the category that was recently moved as the new name is not entirely accurate. Category:Articles using unknown earthquake magnitude scales should be Category:Articles needing specification of an EQ magnitude or magnitude scale, the current Category:M uk handles those where the magnitude type is unknown. Mikenorton (talk) 14:25, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Could you write some notes about the workflow (with links to the categories, or at least the top one)? - e.g. in a wikiproject page. If there's a reasonable use for the categories I'll change my !vote. We've had cases in the past where categorization like this has been pointless (e.g. when the person who set it up found it didn't work and abandoned it). If it's something you expect other editors to do it should be documented; if it's only ever going to be you then perhaps it should be done offline. DexDor(talk) 15:10, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Why not use unspecified instead of needing specification of? Similarly, unverified instead of needing verification of. A bit more concise, and also consistent with other Articles using ___. — MarkH21talk 19:34, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree with DexDor; I'm totally willing to reconsider if there is evidence editors are collaborating with these categories. RevelationDirect (talk) 01:07, 9 May 2020 (UTC)


 * All these categories were created by User:J. Johnson to go with M, which he also created. Unfortunately JJ is currently on an involuntary wikibreak and cannot respond here himself (even if he felt like it). He has done most of the population of the categories by adding the particular M varieties to articles, whereas I have been doing follow up and checking work, if only in the last few months once I had realised what a useful tool it was. Many editors who work on pages that mention earthquake magnitudes find it difficult to navigate amongst the many magnitude types used in scientific literature, which is compounded with news sources often getting it completely wrong, i.e. referring to everything as "Richter". These categories provide a quick way to focus on earthquakes that use for instance, which is not the same as , although they both do use surface waves. Is some cases the upper case "S" will simply be a typo while others are actually following the sources correctly. To answer some specific questions:
 * There is no hierarchy within the categories - they all belong within Category:Articles using templated earthquake magnitude scale.
 * There is no formal workflow (or nothing that I would dignify with that name) - just a case of picking a category and checking the usage against the sources in the article in question, the categories simply make the task more tractable.
 * I have added something to the "Open tasks" section of WikiProject Earthquakes to encourage other editors to use the categories, particularly the "invalid, missing, unspecified, unverified and dubious Richter categories" - I'll wikilink them once this CfD is finished.
 * Finally I have come up with an alternative set of names and just the one merge - those using with those using, as they are exactly the same. See one of my sandboxes for my proposal. I have used the suggestions by User:MarkH21 such as removing the "the" and in most cases the plural for "scale". I have also not gone for a full description, but rather used shortenings like Mw to keep them both concise and accurate e.g.  is only one of the magnitude scales used by the Japanese Meteorological Agency. Mikenorton (talk) 13:10, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I have just tweaked a few of my proposed changes in the sandbox. Mikenorton (talk) 11:37, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Comments:
 * I prefer the titles with the article ("the") as in the original proposal.
 * Regarding Category:Articles with unspecified EQ magnitude or scale - is "EQ" a scale or is that short for earthquake? If it's for earthquake, then there is no reason to abbreviate it.
 * Prefer the full name of the scale when it is named such as Category:Articles using the Japanese Meteorological Agency magnitude scale.
 * Regarding Category:Articles using seismic moment M0 and Category:Articles using M0 with 0tex option, a sub-category should follow the parent name, so Category:Articles using seismic moment M0 with 0tex option
 * --Gonnym (talk) 15:48, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
 * The original proposer wondered if "the" was necessary and I thought that it probably wasn't, but I'm happy either way.
 * I've changed "EQ" to "earthquake" as suggested.
 * As stated above the Japanese Meteorological Agency use more than one scale, only one of which is denoted, so my current proposal is more accurate I think.
 * Category:Articles using M0 with 0tex option renamed as suggested. Mikenorton (talk) 16:26, 13 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Support proposal with any needed adjustments based on Mikenorton's data. --Gonnym (talk) 15:48, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Propose Deleting/Listifying Category:Recipients of the Robert Schumann Prize of the City of Zwickau
 * Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD)
 * The city of Zwickau, Germany is justifiably proud of native son Robert Schumann so they have the Robert Schumann Prize of the City of Zwickau prize to those who honor the composer's legacy. There are a few actual Schumann scholars here, like Bernhard R. Appel, who are defined by Schumann if not this award, but most of the articles don't even mention this award or Zwickau so it doesn't seem generally defining. We already have the winners listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 01:00, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
