 * The result of the discussion was: speedy delete. CSD G7 Liz Read! Talk! 03:06, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting svg templates
 * Nominator's rationale: This category has no use as inline SVG is not supported today. The two templates that appeared here were TFDd (and userfied) accordingly. Suggest deletion without prejudice to some (likely very far-off) future where inline SVG is supported. Izno (talk) 22:51, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Category:Fictional heart attacks

 * 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: delete. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 ( d  c̄ ) 22:09, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting fictional heart attacks
 * Nominator's rationale: Having once had a heart attack is not a defining characteristic of any of the fictional characters in this category. This category just serves as an arbitrary list of characters who had heart attacks at one point in their fictional lives, which is not a notable event. Di (they-them) (talk) 04:18, 21 April 2023 (UTC)


 * It is occasionally defining (e.g. Homer's Triple Bypass) but not very often. If the category is deleted we might move that article to Category:Fiction about diseases and disorders. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:45, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Strong keep and rename – A lot of the characters on the list (e.g. Roy Evans, Frank Tate (Emmerdale), Bill Webster, Jim Robinson and Derek Branning have died because of the heart attacks and the heart attacks are important attributes to the character especially due leading to the characters' exits. For other character it also essential - for Cleo McQueen, the heart attack was part of the bulimia storyline and is sourced in the development. For Mr. Big (Sex and the City), this is sourced in 2 sections as not only did the character die because of a heart attack, but the storyline made sales of peloton bikes go down due to audiences worrying about getting heart attacks themselves from using them, thus illustrating the real life impact of the heart attack in the show. Additionally, heart attacks are a notable event. Not everyone has heart attacks and it not like a character breaking their arm or having the flu - generally, heart attacks are big deal both in real life and in fiction it is often a big deal for storylines and sometimes even exits. It would be non-sensical to not include but to still include categories such as "Fictional cancer survivors" as they are both health conditions that affected the characters and (more importantly for wikipedia) their storylines. It groups characters that have experienced it together and allows readers to learn about heart attacks in fiction. I am happy to go through each article and expand more about the heart attacks and their impacts with sources over the next coming weeks too to help the project, but I think deleting would be a big mistake. DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 06:48, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Writers of soap operas have various possibilities to get a character removed from a series and this is an obvious one. A hearth attack is not at all special. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:38, 22 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment "have died because of the heart attacks". This would be defining if this was a subcategory of Category:Fictional deaths by cause. But this is not a category by either death cause or for patients with specific diseases. Do we even have articles where the heart attack is the article's main topic? I can't think of any. Dimadick (talk) 07:31, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete The ones I clicked on were all soap opera characters that had a passing reference to a heart attack buried way in the text. (Alternatively, if kept, we should rename the category since it is about characters who had heart attacks, not about the heart attacks themselves.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:24, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I am not against renaming this to "Fictional characters who have had heart attacks" or something along those lines.DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 06:48, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep and rename this is a notable attribute for many characters. It changes characterisation and with the above real-world impacts that mentioned above, I believe this is a defining event for characters. However, it could do with a rename to "Fictional characters who have had heart attacks" as suggested above. – Meena • 18:56, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete, listify if wanted. - In fiction any character can have a heart attack, at the author's whim. This event could be essential to the plot, or trivial background information. Context is important for this. So this should be a list (per WP:CLN, point #2) - if anything - in order to explain that context. - jc37 10:11, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep and rename to Category:Fictional characters with cardiovascular disease. I don't thing subcategorizing under Category:Fictional diseases and disorders works, though, as that sounds like a category for diseases that are themselves fictional. BD2412  T 18:23, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete, rename if kept. Not notable.<span id="Qwerfjkl:1689272703704:WikipediaFTTCLNCategories_for_discussion/Log/2023_June_25" class="FTTCmt"> — Qwerfjkl  talk  18:25, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. We deleted categories for real people by common causes of death including heart attack, see Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_June_23%23Deaths_from_heart_disease, and they should not be placed in the parent category Category:Deaths from heart disease. So I don't think a heart attack is necessarily notable for fictional characters (whether they survive it or not). – Fayenatic  L ondon 23:48, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Oppose. Newly-created category, mostly with plenty of scope for expansion. This is another vindictive, disruptive bad-faith nomination by LL, who is stalking my contribs and has clearly not done any WP:BEFORE.<Br />This is NOT diffusion by place; it is diffusion by nationality, which is an establsihed series. --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 16:18, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Note that most of these categories are for sub-disciplines. But because this is a rushed, vindictive, disruptive bad-faith nomination, LL had not even taken the time to designate the parent category as the merge targets.

 * Support - the nominator is not required to do a WP:BEFORE which relates to articles (AFD). These are not articles and it is a merge, not delete. I would suggest a merge in some cases to Category:Biologists from Northern Ireland. It is difficult to see why this needs to be diffused. Another is Category:Computer scientists from Northern Ireland. It is for the creators of these tiny categories to do some prior research on potential numbers. Oculi (talk) 16:59, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 17:38, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

If categories are to be nominated for deletion less than 48 hours after creation, by a nominator who makes mo attempt whatsoever to assess their scope for expansion, then categorisation work is made unreasonably difficult. That appears to be the aim of LL@s stalking. All the nominated cats are part of least one established series, sometimes several series), and there is no basis whatsoever for bringing them immediately to CFD without any scrutiny. -- Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 17:32, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. These merges have been proposed purely on the basis of the current size of the categories, which is clearly not the grounds set out in WP:SMALLCAT. The nominator also wholly ignores the "established series" part of WP:SMALLCAT.
 * Oppose merging those categories which are part of an existing hierarchy, ie where there are existing categories for "English","Scottish" and "Welsh", as for the subcategories of Category:British geneticists. So, oppose merger of Category:Geneticists from Northern Ireland, Category:Palaeontologists from Northern Ireland, Category:Statisticians from Northern Ireland, Category:Meteorologists from Northern Ireland, Category:Botanists from Northern Ireland, Category:Naturalists from Northern Ireland. Neutral on the other categories where other considerations may apply. Pam  D  18:29, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
 * There are only 3 in, so in the spirit of fairness this could be nominated too. Where is the due diligence from the creator of to support the creation of this category? (English, Welsh, Scottish, NI is hardly a large scheme.) Oculi (talk) 19:04, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
 * My due diligence was in checking that it is part of a existing series, per WP:SMALLCAT. Which it is: see Category:Paleontologists by nationality and Category:People from Northern Ireland by occupation and its 547 Fooers .* from Northern Ireland subcats.
 * And no, Category:Welsh palaeontologists should not be nominated. Oculi's tag-teaming with LL is based on ignoring WP:SMALLCAT what WP:SMALLCAT actually says.  (And yes, I can produce evidence of the tag-teaming, which I will do if this as to be take to WP:DRV.)   Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 20:42, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Note to Closer Make sure you note that you're being threatened here and not for the first time. I know what you're thinking, "You don't even know who I am or what my close will be." But you see if a CFD goes the "right" way, this is the proper forum but, if not, it by definition has to be moved to WP:RFC. (If that venue's consensus goes the "wrong" way, I assume you have to move it to the village pump; you get the idea.) So go ahead and go through the motions of the pre-ordained closing of this nomination, but don't kid yourself about having any free will here. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:01, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Sigh. There is no "threat".  WP:DRV is no some sort of punishment or hostile action.
 * The closer will have a difficult task weighing a discussion where some editors wholly ignore the actual content of the guideline they cite. If that guideline-flouting is upheld, then a DRV is the appropriate venue to review that.   Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 00:23, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Struck part of my comment that did not follow WP:5P4 or WP:AGF. I have no reason to think another editor wouldn't respect the outcome of WP:DRV. - RevelationDirect (talk) 10:09, 30 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Let's wait for another week to see if the categories are better populated by then. BHG seems quite sure of that. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:25, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
 * No, @Marcocapelle, I made no such assertion. I do believe that some of these categories, such as Category:Women mathematicians from Northern Ireland‎ and Category:Botanists from Northern Ireland‎ have a lot of potential for growth (per WP:SMALLCAT); but others, e.g. Category:Roboticists from Northern Ireland‎ may not.
 * However, each of the categories nominated here is part of an established series, and as such are permitted by WP:SMALLCAT without regard to size. That's the basis on which i created them, and is is quite invidious to propose to demolish my work contrary to the guideline, or to demand that I put in a lot of work to satisfy somebody'a arbitrary preference to ignore the long-standing guidance.
 * In my work since May on categorising tens of thousands of Irish biographies I have often found that required categories do not exist, esp since I moved on last week to Northern Ireland. Usually I find is when I already have dozens of tabs open, and I have found repeatedly that attempting to fully populate the categories I create along the way causes an exponential growth in my open tabs count, crashing my browser.  So I don't usually try at the time to fully populate the part-of-an-established-series categories, and trying to abuse WP:SMALLCAT to demand that I do so would seriously impede my categorisation work.   Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 22:01, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment Jeez, there's been a lot of drama at CFD lately for the most boring categories imaginable! It's fine to scrutinize editors for doing their homework for mass nominations but it's also fair to ask what work went into creating the many categories in the first place. When I create categories, I first list them in a sandbox and, when I have at least 5 articles, I create the category. I doubt other editors had to wait 5 minutes before my latest award category was populated. Certainly, this involves recategorization on a much larger scale than I do, so maybe my perspective is just too simplistic, I dunno. Moving forward here, I'm totally fine with Marcocapelle's proposal to put this on ice for a week as the creator works to populate them.- RevelationDirect (talk) 10:52, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
 * @RevelationDirect: please do read WP:SMALLCAT. Like really read it.
 * When I create a cat which is not part of an established series (e.g. today's Category:People from Killead, Category:Former churches in Dublin (city) ' Category:Former churches in County Cork), I check for a minimum of 5 articles.
 * But I don't do so when the category is part of an existing series, per WP:SMALLCAT, Which these are: see Category:People from Northern Ireland by occupation and its 547 Fooers .* from Northern Ireland subcats, and the by-nationality siblings in each case.
 * Sadly, some editors in this discussion have chosen to disregard the "existing series" part of WP:SMALLCAT. If they want to modify that guideline, then WP:RFC is thataway, where they can seek a WP:Consensus for the radical change they seek; but in the meantime it is extremely disruptive to misrepresent WP:SMALLCAT and to abuse it as a weapon to demolish categorisation which accords with both the long-established guideline and established practice.   Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 21:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * My comment called for lowering the temperature of this discussion and giving time to improve the nominated categories. You quite justifiably take the nominator to task for not taking the time to have appropriate merge categories and I would have hoped there would be a similar duty for category creators to initially populate their creations. Your clarification that you're not planning to populate these categories moves my !vote to Merge.
 * I read the exception in WP:SMALLCAT for “a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme” to be for branches of trees that are generally well populated or I don’t “accept” them. You read the same passage and come to a different conclusion. This type of good faith difference of opnion is why we have CFD! - RevelationDirect (talk) 01:33, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * @RevelationDirect: are you seriously arguing that "Fooers from Northern Ireland" is not “a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme”?   Really really?
 * Note that Category:People from Northern Ireland by occupation has 584 Fooers from Northern Ireland subcats. If 58 is not enough, what's the threshold?
 * And no I did not say that I am not planning to populate these categories. I do plan to continue to populate categories for people from Northern Ireland an these will of course be part of that. What did say is that I will not accept the use of a malicious and unresearched CFD as a weapon to bully me into populating them now.
 * Note to closer Apart from RevelationDirect's implausible rejection of the "large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme” clause in WP:SUBCAT, their !vote is clearly not founded in the "no potential for growth" headline purpose of WP:SUBCAT.  If RevelationDirect (or anyone else) wants to amend WP:SUBCAT to read "small where the creator does not promptly populate them" then they should open a WP:RFC to seek consensus for that radical change, rather than trying to abuse CFD as a weapon to bully me into doing that work now.   Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 01:59, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Yikes. No room for collegial discussion, no possibility of compromise, just absolute right and wrong. And my wrongness can’t even be from sincere but misguided viewpoints, bad faith is the only possibility where every iVote that disagrees with you is bullying. I really have nothing against you and, in other situations have really appreciated your work. I have no idea where this is coming from. - RevelationDirect (talk) 12:25, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * On the contrary, it is absolutely clear that you flagrantly disregard what the guideline actually says. Sadly, instead of correcting your assertions, you have chosen to make offenc .Please withdraw your deeply uncivil allegation that your decision to misrepresent the guideline is a flaw in my conduct.

 * Comment Could the hatnote not be utilised for these new ones? Or have I been misusing that when I have stuck it on for a few days til I find time to finish it? Crowsus (talk) 17:14, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
 * That's seems like a good idea! - RevelationDirect (talk) 18:17, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
 * @Crowsus & @RevelationDirect: under construction is for articles. Its use on these categories would be highly misleading, because the category pages are complete.
 * The issue here is that the categories are not yet anywhere near fully populated. For that we used to have Underpopulated category (mostly known as popcat), but it as deleted per WP:Templates for discussion/Log/2019 January 4.
 * The problem here is is simply that this a malicious nomination by a nominator wo has wholly disregarded the actual wording of WP:SMALLCAT, ignoring bot the "no potential for growth" headline and the "existing series" clause.  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 20:30, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * If it's only intended for articles, why does its wording automatically change to reflect that it has been added to a category? Crowsus (talk) 22:24, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Sorry, @Crowsus; I hadn't spotted that. Thanks for the crrection.
 * But it doesn't alter my point, which is that these category pages are not under construction.  The issue here is that the categories are not yet anywhere near fully populated.   Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 23:41, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * But you left off the first part of your response. Were you mistaken about the under construction template not be usable in the category space? - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:11, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

 * Oops, I missed that; struck my comment. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:45, 29 June 2023 (UTC)


 * 246 Categories added. In this edit I am adding to this nomination a further 246 categories.
 * They all fit same criteria as those stated by the nominator:


 * 1) They are subcats of Category:People from Northern Ireland by occupation
 * 2) They currently contain less than 4 members
 * This will allow this CFD to uphold the priciple of consistency, by applying the same action to all categories which fit the criteria stated by the nominator.
 * I made the list by first using Petscan to find all the subcats of Category:People from Northern Ireland by occupation whose title ends in "from Northern Ireland". My Petscan search found 548 such categories.
 * Then I made two subpages of this discussion, listing all the categories found by Petscan, and I used the WP:Magic word  to list the size of each category, in a sortable table. Technical limits on the number of parser functions on a page required me to split the list into two parts: part 1 and part 2.
 * I sorted each of those two lists by number of pages, and selected the categories with fewer than pages.
 * This brings the total number of categories in this nomination to 256, which as of now is 46.7% of all the "Fooers from Northern Ireland" subcats of Category:People from Northern Ireland by occupation. In other words, applying the nominator's principle consistently will lead to the upmerger of almost half all the "Fooers from Northern Ireland" categories.
 * As noted in my comments above, I think that this is a terrible and destructive proposal. However, the nominator and some other editors in this discussion want to abuse WP:SMALLCAT by disregarding the "established series" clause and warping the "Small with no potential for growth" purpose of WP:SMALLCAT into "currently small". If that radical change is to be adopted, then it should be applied consistently.
 * Note also that the 10 categories selected by the nominator were overwhelmingly recent creations by me (most within 48 hours). The categories I have added are not selected by age; many are multiple years old, so they have had much more time to to be populated. --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 10:24, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm struggling really hard to WP:AGF with this expansion and not seeing it as a WP:POINTY disruption. - RevelationDirect (talk) 12:22, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * @RevelationDirect: please explain how it is WP:POINTy to add to a CFD nomination a set of other categories which fit exactly the same criteria as those stated by the nominator.  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 12:37, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Changing another editor's nomination with such a huge addition, 4 days after the nom was opened, just below complaints about trivial 'refactoring'? I can't recall anything similar in the last 15 years. Open it as a separate nom by all means but this should be reverted asap. (I would support the new nom - I see some Rathfelders in there - although specific unmerge targets would be nice. Smallcat does not permit intersection of every conceivable 'occupation' with nationality. Many of these are not occupations anyway.) Oculi (talk) 13:03, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * @Oculi: I most definitely will not revert.
 * Why do you believe that a proposal to merge categories selected by specified criteria should be restricted to only a subset of the categories which meet all those criteria?
 * In my 17 years at CFD I have never before seen a nomination like his one: a bad faith nom targeting one editor, based on a blatant misapplication of the guideline, supported by a tag team. If we are actually going to discuss such an outrageous nomination, let's make a decision on the whole set.   Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 13:29, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Tag team? No honest reading of my comments above show me giving Laurel Lodged a rubber stamp. I think you sincerely think these categories should be kept and that you're not a meat puppet of some other editor. Pity I don't get the same WP:AGF in return. - RevelationDirect (talk) 13:49, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Your choice to wholly disregard the "Small with no potential for growth" headline of WP:SMALLCAT does not in any way suggest good faith. Nor does your decision to support merge because BHG did not personally pledge to promptly populate the categories.  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 14:52, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Question Are you changing your iVote to "Merge" based on your improvement to this nomination? (If so, this is not a pointy disruption.). - RevelationDirect (talk) 13:49, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * No, of course I am not changing my iVote. Please read what I wrote above when I added the extra categories.
 * As I have already stated very clearly I think that this is a terrible and destructive proposal. I am simply remedying the absurd situation that a proposal to merge categories selected by specified criteria should be restricted to only a subset of the categories which meet all those criteria.
 * The only pointiness here is from those who want to apply their weird misrepresentation of WP:SMALLCAT to a small set of articles selected in bad faith.  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 14:02, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose this would cause the worlds greatest series of unending edit wars. BHG knows the sensitivity of the Northern Ireland space, so I find this odd. Who decides if someone should go in the British category or Irish category (and why should it as that's a different country so logically they should all go into the British categories)? This is a sensitive space, you cannot go around miscategorising people into one or the other or heaven forbid both. The anarchy such a thing could cause is horrific. As an admin heavily involved in Northern Ireland related topics and areas under no circumstances should someone in a Northern Ireland category be moved to an Irish or British category without careful individual article thought and deliberation. <b style="color: Blue;">Canterbury Tail</b> <i style="color: Blue;">talk</i> 13:56, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * @Canterbury Tail: As you can see from my many comments above, I agree entirely with your grounds for opposing, especially your emphasis on the WP:NPOV issues.  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 14:06, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Apologies I misread the proposal and thought BHG had proposed it, which is why I was surprised. Still surprised that Laurel Lodged would suggest it as they're also aware of this. <b style="color: Blue;">Canterbury Tail</b> <i style="color: Blue;">talk</i> 14:39, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

 * Would using European or global categories as the merge targets (instead of British and Irish ones) avoid the sensitivities for this topic area? - RevelationDirect (talk) 14:20, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Category:Women mathematicians from Northern Ireland are already categorised as both Irish and British via subcats, so this objection applies to the existing set-up. Oculi (talk) 14:24, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * @Oculi: they are categorised under both Irish and British, but neither Irish nor British appears in the category on the page. That is one of the reasons why "Fooers from Northern Ireland" categories are important, because for some people the label British is obnoxious and for others the label "Irish" is repugnant.  Sadly, you support placing those divisive labels on the page.   Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 14:32, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep all When I saw the original nomination I could have been convinced that this was not a well-accepted subcategorization scheme, but now that it's over 250 categories it's clear that it is, and that merging creates a bigger mess than some small categories existing. * Pppery * <sub style="color:#800000">it has begun... 17:14, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose, it would be a lot of work for something that doesn't seem like a big enough issue and occupation by nationality is an established series of categories. Irish/British nationality is a sensitive issue and if the current system works then I think it's better to leave it as it is. Suonii180 (talk) 07:23, 30 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Clearly part of a wider category tree and the proposal is not in any way helpful to Wikipedia navigation. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:45, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose, generally, merging categories on people by profession in Northern Ireland to categories for "British" and "Irish" people in those professions, as that seems tilted towards erasing Northern Ireland as an entity. BD2412  T 18:27, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Merge, part of an apparently abandoned scheme. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:43, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. @Marcocapelle @Oculi, I am almost finishing categorizing by decade and the Category:2000s assassinated politicians reached 193 pages, which compelled me to subdivide it. As such, I was thinking that given that "Category:1970s assassinated politicians" now has more than 100 members, I could start the subdivision from it forwards to the 2010s. Therefore, I am planning to take again the "Category:1970s assassinated South American politicians", if feasible. Regards, Thinker78  (talk) 19:46, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep but rename to Category:1970s assassinated politicians in South America per parent Category:Politicians in South America. There are more assassinated politicians than I expected. The scheme is being populated and   is now viable. Oculi (talk) 12:38, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

 * @DaxServer
 * @Marcocapelle Hello, dear listeners! I do appreciate @DaxServer's contributions and his concern about this Category:Gujjar places being deleted. I have created this category, and this category mostly contains the pages where it is written that this place was named after the Gurjar or Gujjar ethnicity. So this category should not be deleted because it does not meet the criteria for deletion. It may be redirected to another destination with a similar name if possible instead of deletions because this category is important to define the many places that are named after Gurjar,Gurjara, Gujar, or Gujjar ethnic groups. If this category doesn't have any citations, maybe that's why @DaxServer put it on deletions so I can provide some sources on the category page for its verification. If anyone has any other suggestions or processes to oppose the deletion request, I would like to try my luck. أسامة بن عبد الله وليد (talk) 18:33, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
