 * The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure)  JBchrch   talk  14:28, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:History of Bangladesh (1971–present) to Category:Post-independence history of Bangladesh
 * Nominator's rationale: The present name for the category is not suitable. "1971–present" - here the word 'present' isn’t specific. The proposed name is better. Mehedi Abedin 22:44, 5 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Oppose for consistency with main article History of Bangladesh (1971–present). Marcocapelle (talk) 07:22, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose as inconsistent with History of Bangladesh (1971–present) as pointed out by Marcocapelle.-- Mvqr (talk) 11:01, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose How is "present" not specific? Present is present. Laurel Lodged (talk) 14:37, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Pre-1971 in Bangladesh

 * The result of the discussion was: Rename the first four to East Pakistan. It is not clear whether there will be sufficient content for an East Pakistan companies hierarchy, so I will merge the last one for now, but this is without prejudice against seeing up such categories if justified. – Fayenatic  L ondon 22:26, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:1966 in Bangladesh to Category:1966 in Pakistan
 * Propose merging Category:1966 establishments in Bangladesh to Category:1966 establishments in Pakistan
 * Propose merging Category:1969 in Bangladesh to Category:1969 in Pakistan
 * Propose merging Category:1969 establishments in Bangladesh to Category:1966 establishments in Pakistan
 * Propose merging Category:Bangladeshi companies established in 1969 to Category:Pakistani companies established in 1969
 * Nominator's rationale: merge, Bangladesh did not exist before 1971. In principle renaming to years in East Pakistan would also be possible, except we do not have a tree for years in East Pakistan yet. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:01, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Don't merge, rename them, I propose to rename them to years in East Pakistan. If we don't have tree for years in East Pakistan then it will be good if that tree can be created. East Pakistan is former unit of Pakistan. So it will be appropriate. Mehedi Abedin 14:23, 5 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Rename per Mehediabedin's suggestion. East Pakistan covers the years from 1955 to 1971. Before that it was East Bengal (1947-1955). Dimadick (talk) 04:38, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Support as proposed above Hugo999 (talk) 12:30, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Rename, Bangladesh->East Pakistan. This was a separate part of Pakistan and a straight up merge would lost information.-- Mvqr (talk) 11:02, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment -- I would not oppose the emerging consensus on East Pakistan (and previously East Bengal), but the whole tree contains only two actiual articles: a company established in 1969 and a place established in 1966. Unless these can be better populated, the scheme as nom ought to proceed.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:21, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Some articles related to East Pakistan are in the category of year of Pakistan. We can move them after creation of year category of East Pakistan. Also many article don't have establishment category, for example see - Pabna Mental Hospital. Mehedi Abedin 14:21, 17 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Rename per Mehediabedin's suggestion. While Peterkingiron is technically correct, I see potential for growth. Laurel Lodged (talk) 14:40, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Support we should name such categories based on what a place was named at the time of the events, and in the years in question this was Pakistan.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:01, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Wonder Boy (video game series).  ✗  plicit  01:18, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Wonder Boy series to Category:Wonder Boy (video games)
 * Nominator's rationale: rename, clearer disambiguator. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:19, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. "series" without the type of series is very unhelpful. Gonnym (talk) 11:26, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sideswipe9th (talk) 01:30, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Alternate rename to Wonder Boy which is the name of the main article and therefore not ambiguous as some have claimed. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:58, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Qwerfjkl  talk  09:17, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
 * The alternative rename is not reflecting the category content accurately. The content is about video games and the category belongs in the video games tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:45, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Support Clearer disambiguation with Wonder Boy (character), the superhero by Quality Comics. Dimadick (talk) 04:40, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Support in principle, as Wonder boy is ambiguous. However, the exact name should either be Category:Wonder Boy video games or Category:Wonder Boy (video game series) to be consistent with others in Category:Platform video games by series & in siblings of that one. – Fayenatic  L ondon 14:02, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
 * (as nom) I am happy with those alternatives too. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:47, 16 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Rename to Category:Wonder Boy (video game series) per Naming_conventions_(video_games) - "For video game series: Typically, disambiguate by appending "(series)". If this is still ambiguous – for instance with a book, film, or television series – use "(video game series)" to avoid incomplete disambiguation." Looking at Wonder Boy, the further disambiguation would seem to clearly be necessary. - jc37 09:36, 30 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Rename to Category:Wonder Boy (video game series) - a rename is definitely needed, but renaming it to Category:Wonder Boy (video games) seems confusing as no other category functions like that. (Oinkers42) (talk) 20:50, 7 August 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  16:59, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting Category:Kumu (social network)
 * Propose deleting Category:Shows that use Kumu (social network)
 * Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:SMALLCAT, one article in each category and both articles are already directly interlinked. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:42, 5 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. JBchrch   talk  14:27, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
