 * I think if you did the split, wouldn’t the “managed by” and “owned by” just be sub-cats of the main categories for the management companies. Why delete them? That seems like an un-needed step. SecretName101 (talk) 21:12, 30 October 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment: I've taken the liberty to strike out Category:Central Group, which I've removed from the category as it was miscategorised. --Paul_012 (talk) 21:04, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep all that are valid eponymous categories, and reorganise as appropriate. The current categorisation of many of these categories as shopping malls is erroneous. See for example Category:JCPenney, which contains items such as J. C. Penney Historic District and Category:JCPenney people. They should not be deleted whether or not Category:Shopping malls by management company is. --Paul_012 (talk) 21:12, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep, having categories for companies with multiple articles about their subsidiaries is usual practice. These are no different to the BP, NatWest Group or Nike categories. Some may need tweaking as suggested by, but to delete would be throwing the baby out with the bath water. Untreegoo (talk) 03:09, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * OK my understanding of the above reactions and of the previous discussion in conjunction is that the categories should be purged from shopping malls but not deleted. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:50, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Looking at the previous discussion, I'm thinking Johnpacklambert's main argument, that malls change management company a lot, might be skewed towards an American-centric view of the industry. Briefly looking at the American categories, the members indeed do not appear to share a strong association with the companies. But in contrast, looking at e.g. Category:SM Prime (based in the Philippines) and Category:Central Pattana (Thailand), all members share the name and branding and most at least appear to have been built from scratch by the respective companies. I would oppose purging such categories. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:13, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep, except maybe Category:Shopping malls by management company. It makes sense to categorize properties notable enough to have articles about them by their owner/manager. I'm not wedded to a category that brings all these management companies together, though and would be OK with deleting that one. The categories can still be categorized under businesses, organizations, real estate companies, retailers or what have you. Jahaza (talk) 02:16, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Purge? Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Qwerfjkl  talk  22:25, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Copying my comments from the previous discussion, which still apply:
 * WP:TNT categorising any property "...by management company". There is a huge difference between "by company", and "by management company". Each of the Category:Buildings and structures by company may also have one or more management companies managing the site. A management company could be anything from a service provider (janitorial, landscaping, etc), to a rent collector, to essentially being a landlord, and more. The term is just too broad. See also Property management. If someone would like to list malls by who they were built by, please check out Lists of shopping malls. - jc37 10:08, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * That said, as has been noted above, some of the nominated categories are broader in inclusion than just management company, so in those cases, Purge - jc37 09:34, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * (as nom) I am ok with purging too. In most cases it will lead to deletion per WP:C1 anyway. I am also fine with leaving Category:SM Prime and Category:Central Pattana alone per Paul_012's comments. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:38, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Oppose as the proposed title it just duplicating the same word, the current category title is more concise and easier to understand. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:00, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment -- The broadcasting channel was called BBC Light Programme, before it was renamed BBC Radio 2. Possibly Category:Programming on BBC Light Programme or Category:Programmes on BBC Light Programme as a means of avoiding having a repeated word.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:49, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
 * The capitalization helps differentiate the two meanings of same word, but I'd be fine with either suggestion as long as we're OK with breaking the pattern of Category:BBC Radio programmes. BTW, we'll eventually have the same problem with BBC Third Programme. Fuddle (talk) 00:25, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Support, the current name is not accurate. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:40, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Support – Makes sense and follows the existing category tree naming structure. Duplication of the word doesn't matter. If there were a band called "The Songs", we could have a category called "The Songs songs". MClay1 (talk) 01:48, 22 November 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  17:46, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Database templates to Category:Conversion templates
 * Nominator's rationale:


 * 1) The category consists only of one template (and has been this way for a while, since at least this discussion in 2020).
 * 2) The category name is confusing – it's not a topical category for templates related to databases, it is for templates that are a kind of database lookup. —⁠andrybak (talk) 21:16, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting epic video games
 * Nominator's rationale: The "epic" genre is not one typically associated with video games, and not a common descriptor that games are associated with (with the exception of The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim and perhaps a few other outliers). As such this category is unlikely to be useful and any effort to populate it will result in disputes as we cannot reliably source the categorizing of many games as "epics". <small style="font-size:80%;">silvia  <small style="font-size:75%;"> (inquire within)  17:55, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

Astronomical objects by source of name

 * Propose deleting astronomical objects by source of name


 * Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization, those astronomical objects are categorized by details about their name rather than by their defining characteristics. Category:Astronomical nomenclature by nation and Category:Lists of astronomical objects named after people are not included in the nomination, as they are categories of lists of astronomical objects rather than astronomical objects themselves. Cambalachero (talk) 14:40, 14 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete - this is exactly WP:SHAREDNAME. Oculi (talk) 15:27, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Sorry, I got busy linking and tagging all the categories that I forgot to mention that. The 2019 nomination was withdrawn by the OP, and the 2018 uses faulty arguments for keep. Many of them say that it helps to search, but it doesn't. "Useful" categories would be planets by planet type, by type of star, by existence of atmosphere, by suspected habitability, by distance ranges from Earth, etc; but which use is there in grouping planets named after comic book characters? Another claims that the name is significant because the article discuss it, but that's not the way it works. The guideline means that we categorize things for what they are, not by aspects of its name. A Rose by any other name would still belong in "Garden plants" and "Rosoideae", but not in "flowers whose name starts with R". Cambalachero (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete, these objects have nothing substantively in common. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:54, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep – Seems useful to me. I'm not sure what the benefit is to deleting them. I understand that WP:SHAREDNAME is a thing but why is it important? The names of astrononomical objects seem to be important and defining. It's a well-made category tree and doesn't present any issues. I'm of the opinion that if you don't like a category tree, don't use it. Users who are into astronomy appear to have gone to great effort to create it, so they must find it useful. Deleting it wouldn't be a huge loss though as the content is available in articles and lists. I created a few of the categories but only to round out the missing pieces in the category tree; I didn't start it and I'm not attached to it. MClay1 (talk) 09:46, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
 * "Usefulness" is an ambiguous concept. E.g. it entirely escapes me how it can be "useful" to navigate from one minor planet named after a plant to another minor planet named after a completely different plant. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:23, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
 * WP:ILIKEIT isn't a valid reason to keep these. <b style="color:#0033ab">Joseph</b><b style="color:#000000">2302</b> (talk) 13:46, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I was addressing usefulness not likeability. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:14, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Categories are not only useful for navigation. They provide useful collections of articles. You could get most of the same function from a list, but I prefer to simplicity of the category format. Usefulness will vary from user to user. I just don't see the point in taking something away from other users. This category tree is not problematic, just a bit niche. MClay1 (talk) 01:36, 22 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete exactly what WP:SHAREDNAME says, these have nothing in common other than a shared name. <b style="color:#0033ab">Joseph</b><b style="color:#000000">2302</b> (talk) 13:46, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
 * WP:SHAREDNAME says: "Avoid categorizing by a subject's name when it is a non-defining characteristic of the subject". It was argued in previous CfDs that it is a defining characteristic, and I think that argument should be addressed this time before deleting. MClay1 (talk) 01:41, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * So what is the defining characteristic that they share apart from the name? O sure, they are minor planets. But the articles are already in other Minor planets categories too. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:30, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I have already addressed that non-argument in an earlier message. The only argument advanced to justify it is that the article discussed the origin of the name somewhere, but that's not what being a "defining characteristic" means. Rule of thumb: let's say that the subject of the article changed its name to "Foo". Would we need to make a substantial rewrite to the article, other than move it and in the "reason of the name" section or passage? Cambalachero (talk) 14:06, 22 November 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  17:54, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting kickboxing stubs
 * Nominator's rationale: Delete. I mistakenly nominated Kickboxing biography stubs for merger to this parent as well as, see Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_November_2. The only contents are 9 templates and biographies, both of which are categorised under martial arts stubs, so this is not needed after all, and no merger is required. – Fayenatic  L ondon 09:40, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
