 * The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:SVG images of trademarks. (non-admin closure) (t &#183; c)  buidhe  21:39, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: Only member of the tree using "vector" rather than "SVG". User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 18:42, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Non-free university technical college logos. (non-admin closure) (t &#183; c)  buidhe  21:42, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: The main article is called University technical college, which more clear than "UTC (school)". Furthermore, the category tree is  should be named consistently. User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 18:39, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Category:Somaliland television stubs

 * 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 (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 06:36, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: Underpopulated stub categories with no indication that they were ever approved by the stub sorting project. As usual, stub categories are neither useful nor wanted until the category can be populated with somewhere around 60 entries, but the sizes here are only 3, 7 and 10, and none have any obvious prospects of immediately finding 50 more entries to salvage them with (even just upmerging Category:Nigerian television show stubs to Category:Nigerian television stubs still wouldn't hit 60) — and precisely because there's that minimum size rule on stub categories, the rule is that they have to be proposed and approved by the stub sorting project and cannot just be created willy-nilly by just any editor the moment there are one or two potential entries, but i can't find any evidence that these were ever discussed or authorized. The stub templates are fine, but should simply sort into a more general category, such as the proposed targets, until such time as 60 potential entries can be identified to justify the creation of a dedicated new category. Bearcat (talk) 15:14, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Somaliland television stubs to Category:African television stubs and Category:Somaliland stubs
 * Propose merging Category:Nigerian television stubs to Category:African television stubs and Category:Mass media in Nigeria stubs
 * Propose merging Category:Nigerian television show stubs to Category:African television show stubs and Category:Mass media in Nigeria stubs

Category:Savoyard counter-revolutionaries

 * 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: no consensus. – Fayenatic  L ondon 21:16, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: Only 2 articles - brothers. No suggestion that there was any sort of movement based in Savoy. Rathfelder (talk) 15:02, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Savoyard counter-revolutionaries to Category:Italian counter-revolutionaries and Category:18th-century people from Savoy‎.


 * Oppose. Italy did not exist until 1861, and this is a late 1700s period category. Category:Italian counter-revolutionaries should be split apart, e.g. Fra Diavolo should be in Category:Neapolitan counter-revolutionaries.-- Mvqr (talk) 12:22, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
 * We have Category:Italian people by century and occupation going back to the 11th century and Category:Italian people by century going back to the 4th century, mostly because we dont like categories with fewer than 5 articles. There are only 3 articles in Category:Italian counter-revolutionaries.  Its not practical to split it between the Italian states. Rathfelder (talk) 17:20, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom. Mvqr's concern is not resolved by keeping the categories separate, because Category:Italian counter-revolutionaries is already a parent category and thus they are already categorized as Italian. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:25, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom. --Just N. (talk) 21:26, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Object -- Savoy is now part of France. It was part of the kingdom of Piedmont, later called Sardinia, in a period when Italy was disunited.  If we are to have Italian categories before 1861, they need to be confined to people living south of the Alps.  Peterkingiron (talk) 14:41, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Both articles are about politicians in the kingdom of Sardinia, so I do not think that it harms to count them as Italian. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:01, 23 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Oppose Italy was a loose concept prior to 1861. Also since Savoy was an integral part of the Kingdom of Sardinia, ignoring its later annexation by France is not solved by that move. This is essentially trying to make the term less hisotircally accurate. Yes, there was an idea of Italianess in the 18th century, but it lacked clear and defined limits. It is not good to try to use one category to merge together unlike things that happen over time to have had the same name. We have a huge problem of ignoring the national designations that best describe people based on when they lived and were publicly known.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:44, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

 * 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 to Category:15th-century Spanish poets. (non-admin closure) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:25, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: merge, contains only one article, which is not particularly about a troubadour. Note that the era of troubadours is generally assumed to end in the 14th century. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:55, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:15th-century Spanish troubadours to Category:15th-century Spanish poets

Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:51, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

 * 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. – Fayenatic  L ondon 21:11, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: Both's scope appears to be likely under-TOO logos marked as non-free. Both titles are not optimal IMO, but the name of the older cat is at least not paradoxical. User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 12:15, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Non-free logos that should be free to Category:Simple non-free logos


 * support - Jonteemil (talk) 18:03, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:25, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: rename both categories as proposed. (non-admin closure) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 05:36, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: rename, aligning with Category:Pubs in the United Kingdom and Category:Pubs in London. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:39, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:LGBT public houses to Category:LGBT pubs in the United Kingdom

Category:Defunct LGBT nightclubs

 * The result of the discussion was: no consensus. – Fayenatic  L ondon 17:41, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:32, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Defunct LGBT nightclubs to Category:Defunct LGBT drinking establishments


 * Merge per nom. * Pppery * <sub style="color:#800000">it has begun... 01:25, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure I understand why the category should be merged or deleted. Just because there's one subcategory for the U.S.? Surely there are other notable defunct LGBT nightclubs around the world. The category should populated, not eliminated... --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 16:31, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * It seems that Wikipedia has very few articles about defunct drinking establishments in general (not just LGBT), see also Category:Defunct drinking establishments. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:03, 18 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom. We don't typically divide drinking establishments by their current status. Dimadick (talk) 08:56, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * @Dimadick "Defunct" is not the issue here. Nominator seems to have issue with the "nightclubs" portion of the category. Unless I am misunderstanding? But not all drinking establishments are nightclubs, hence why we have Category:Drinking establishments and Category:Nightclubs. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 12:54, 23 January 2022 (UTC)@Dimadick -- Another Believer  ( Talk ) 12:54, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
 * (as nom) I have an issue with neither, the issue I am having is that the current strucure unnecessarily impedes navigation. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:21, 24 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Oppose, per Another Believer. I'd rather see the category be better populated than merged; I don'think it provides sufficient hindrance to navigation to be worth changing. — OwenBlacker (he/him; Talk; please &#123;&#123;ping&#125;&#125; me in replies) 07:40, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Officially casting a vote to keep. No need to merge. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 15:21, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure) (t &#183; c)  buidhe  03:40, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only two subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:18, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Academic works about psychology to Category:Works about psychology


 * Keep It's not at all SMALLCAT. Nobody should bring well populated subcategories in a line with single entries! --Just N. (talk) 21:36, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Neither of the two well-populated subcategories has been nominated because of WP:SMALLCAT. This is a nomination to facilitate easier navigation through the category tree, no more and no less. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:05, 23 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Comment -- I would have expected the parent also to have "Novels about psychology"; and it does though not by that name. We have two subcats in the subject.  I am not sure that we need to a separate "academic" category level.  Peterkingiron (talk) 14:22, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep (although there is an alternative solution that I'll explain). Even though it's currently inarguably not well-utilised, there's value to separating out the academic and non-academic works in the case of psychology. Lay people love to write "psychology" self-help books or memoirs/autobiographies about mental health, or just their general opinions about psychology. For a bunch of examples, see Category:Books about mental health. The current categories are - again - a disaster, but there's value to having some categorisation about what is and is not academic. The alternative here to keeping and populating Category:Academic works about psychology, would be to delete the current category and instead create and populate Category:Non-academic works about psychology, but that would be out of step with the parent categories. --Xurizuri (talk) 06:01, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

Nominator's rationale: Adding "an" for grammatical reasons, and changing to "aircraft" to include helicopters (e.g. some of the victims of Argentina's Dirty War) and balloons (e.g. Sophie Blanchard). Clarityfiend (talk) 04:36, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Alt merge to Category:Deaths by defenestration. Laurel Lodged (talk) 13:26, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Defenestration is being thrown out of a window. Auric Goldfinger is the only example I can think of off the top of my head for a defenestration from an airplane. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:32, 19 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Support Wider scope. Dimadick (talk) 08:57, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment the current name is missing a "s" to be grammatically correct Category:Deaths by falling out of airplanes -- the proposed name is overly long by an "an", as you can just use Category:Deaths by falling out of aircraft, "aircraft" is plural in this case. Compare "Deaths by falling out of windows" instead of "Deaths by falling out of a window" -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 13:47, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting scientific laws
 * Keep and merge Category:Empirical laws into it, this presumably can be speedied per WP:C2D, since Empirical law redirects to Scientific law. I will tag Category:Empirical laws as well. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:58, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment: Handling of the categories should follow state of the art in science theory, not existing article redirects. Imo, "scientific" is more general than "empirical". I suggest to collect all discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Philosophy. - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 22:05, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
 * these are two different discussions, one about the correct name of the article, which should be discussed by means of a move request on the article talk page, and the other about the merge direction of categories at this platform (which will normally follow the name of the article). Straight deletion of this category is out of order anyway, it should be a merge, in either direction. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:34, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
 * From the lead of scientific law it seems that "Scientific law" is used synonymously to "Empirical law" in English. This is different in German (the name of the translated article, "de:Naturgesetz", literally means "law of nature" resp. "law of natural science"), and it seems that I have been mislead by the latter. Provided the lead appropriately reflects the state of the art, merging in any direction would be ok for me. - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 10:17, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep --Just N. (talk) 21:41, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep (at worst merge). The distinction between a scientific law and an empirical one is a narrow one, but i think there is a difference, though some of the content of empirical laws would be better in scientific laws.  I would suggest that the observation that there is a correlation between one factor and another is empirical, but where there is an exact arithmetic relationship, as with Ohm's law V = IR or Einstein's E=mc2, it is a scientific law.  Peterkingiron (talk) 14:35, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
 * If we keep the categories separate based on this distinction, then quite a few articles should be moved from Category:Empirical laws to Category:Scientific laws. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:58, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't see your distinction, since Ohm's and Einstein's laws describe correlations, too. The exact arithmetic relations are idealized from empirical observations by attributing any deviations to measurement errors; moreover, even the exact relations are (special cases of) correlations. - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 21:48, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
