Category:Failed crowdfunding projects

 * 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: combine to  Category:Crowdfunding projects (except for Category:Failed crowdfunding projects). (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  16:35, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Crowdfunded projects to Category:Crowdfunding projects (updated Feb 26)
 * Propose merging Category:Failed crowdfunding projects to Category:Crowdfunding projects
 * Propose merging Category:Unsuccessful Kickstarter campaigns to Category:Crowdfunding projects
 * Nominator's rationale: Merge per WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. "Failed" or "unsuccessful" is a subjective judgement that doesn't account for potential success later, acquiring actual publisher funding, choosing to cancel a Kickstarter, etc. Even when supposedly "failed", a Kickstarter can give a game free advertising. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:51, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

William Allen Simpson (talk) 06:06, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose for the reason that a failed crowdfunding campaign is a project that did not end up getting crowdfunded, so it would not fit into the latter categories. Maybe "unsuccessful crowdfunding campaigns" would work better, putting more focus on the attempt to crowdfund than the larger project of doing things with the funds - if this even is worth categorizing an article by in the first place.--AlexandraIDV 00:16, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you would agree if the parent category was moved to Category:Crowdfunding projects? That is how it is written in the title of List of highest-funded crowdfunding projects after all, and doesn't imply the project reached its target or not. The two parent categories of that one are also Category:Crowdfunding and Category:Projects. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 00:39, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * That makes sense to me.--AlexandraIDV 00:42, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Category:Failed crowdfunding projects, it is not a defining characteristic of the two articles in this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:11, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Rename/Merge as updated pending discussion. I've removed one of the two Category:Failed crowdfunding projects, as crowdfunding was never mentioned in the article. The other "failed" upward, as $793,000 raised is not usually considered a failure, and the platform may be completed later.

 * Propose merging Category:Soviet scholars of Roman history to Category:Russian scholars of Roman history
 * Nominator's rationale: merge, for scholars of Roman history the distinction between Soviet Russians and post-Soviet Russians is rather trivial. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:03, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

William Allen Simpson (talk) 04:02, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge — verified that they all were born in Russia or Tatarstan, all seem to be Russian, some already in Russian scholars.

 * Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, currently only two articles in this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:57, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

William Allen Simpson (talk) 04:04, 19 February 2023 (UTC) William Allen Simpson (talk) 05:39, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete
 * Delete per WP:SMALLCAT. The two articles are actually about Greek historians that lived in Roman times (Polybius, 2nd century BC, and Plutarch, 1st-2nd centuries AD). So they are anyway a bit misplaced in the category tree of Category:Historians of ancient Rome, which is in (although, of course, they did write about Roman-era Greece and the Roman world). The category  were they belong is therefore, which I guess is thus named instead of Category:Roman-era Greek historians (after ,  and ) because it includes historians that wrote in Greek but were not Greek themselves, such as Josephus. As both are already in this category, there is nothing to merge. Place Clichy (talk) 15:03, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Modified mine to delete, as there is nothing to merge. Thanks for the detailed explanation.
 * Agree with Place Clichy and amended the nomination. As the two articles are already in Category:Greek-language historians from the Roman Empire, a merge is no longer needed. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:03, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Rulers deposed as children to Category:Monarchs deposed as children
 * Propose renaming Category:Rulers who died as children to Category:Monarchs who died as children
 * Nominator's rationale: rename and reparent  to the Monarchs hierarchy. Monarchs is more specific than rulers and the concept of child rulers only makes sense in a monarchy. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:14, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

William Allen Simpson (talk) 05:51, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Rename per nom. Scratching my head, I can only think of the Dalai Lama as a case where a state would select a child that is not a monarch to rule it, obviously through regents. There are other culture which also select children as religious figures, but I'm not sure there is any other place where they are also invested temporal powers. Anyway, this case practically comes down to a non-hereditary monarchy, so I subscribe to the nomination. Place Clichy (talk) 18:06, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Rename per nom. It is highly improbable that any child would be appointed as a ruler, other than by inheriting the position.  As a child, actual rule will be in the hands of a regent(s).  This includes Dalai Lama, who is believed to be his predecessor reincarnated.  "Child" needs to be judged according to whether they had a regent, as some kings declared themselves of age and began ruling at less than the normal full age.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:01, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting wikipedia categories named after subway systems
 * Nominator's rationale: WP:OVERLAPCAT. Poorly named and unmaintained Maintenance category. Petscan shows that a number of "underground" rapid transit systems are missing. Using Category:Rapid transit itself would be better and more complete than only "subway systems".
 * William Allen Simpson (talk) 09:51, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

William Allen Simpson (talk) 16:45, 18 February 2023 (UTC) William Allen Simpson (talk) 04:23, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, overlap with the tree of Category:Rapid transit - unless someone can explain what kind of maintenance is done here. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:31, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep - and populate using eg the Petcan mentioned in the nom. 'Delete because incomplete' is a novel rationale at cfd. Oculi (talk) 13:16, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Overlapping categories that are not well populated is a fairly common rationale. Over the past 6+ years, mostly and I have proposed deleting one or more of these.  always opposes without explaining how s/he is doing maintenance. Perhaps the creator  can explain what maintenance is actually done. In the meantime, I'll purge those not specifically about subways.
 * If it's a worthwhile category to populate, sure, I'm on board with populating it. So what administrative purpose does it serve? - RevelationDirect (talk) 16:49, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * It is a completely different category (a category of categories) from Category:Rapid transit (a standard topic category), with a completely different structure, as a swift glance at both will demonstrate. William Allen Simpson has a history of bringing these to cfd without attempting to understand them; eg 2021 March 3#Category:Wikipedia categories named after regions. user:BrownHairedGirl, whose sagacious contributions to cfd are sorely missed, supplies a well-reasoned defence at 2020 March 25#Category:Wikipedia categories named after Presidents of Czechoslovakia. There is a discussion at 2012 March 3#Category:Eponymous categories which decided they should be hidden and discusses administrative/project properties. Oculi (talk) 01:44, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * BHG provides an argument for closely monitoring eponymous biography categories but that doesn't apply here. How does this category aid the encyclopedia? - RevelationDirect (talk) 03:37, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I've been around some time longer than Oculi, would appreciate that s/he stop personal insults. I understand category maintenance rather well. Still waiting for decription of the actual maintenance procedure for this case.


 * Delete clear case of WP:OVERLAPCAT while avoiding WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. If a plausible case that this serves an administrative purpose is raised, I'm happy to reconsider. - RevelationDirect (talk) 16:49, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete unless a valid reason to keep for maintenance is provided; however, I've yet to see one. –Aidan721 (talk) 05:35, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting templates used by fb templates
 * Nominator's rationale: We don't have a category tree for templates that are used by other templates, and for a good reason. The fact that only 3 templates are listed here shows that even this category is not really used. Gonnym (talk) 09:28, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Suggest just Category:Train fires. Subways and rapid transit are normally species of railway.  We actually have articles on fires on subways and London underground.  There may be merit in separating fires in tunnels from other railway fires as they are particularly nasty.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:16, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Reduce confusion with the London "Underground", and others demonstrated by:

No rapid transit lines distinguish their rolling stock as exclusively "underground". No upmerge will be necessary as I've already reviewed and restored the earlier parent category.
