Category:Private members' clubs

 * 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. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  15:32, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Private members' clubs to Category:Clubs and societies
 * Nominator's rationale: In Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_October_4, more people complained about this category being redundant, due to clubs being inherently private, than discussed the subcategories that were nominated. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 21:03, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep Seems a sensible category - I've made the very extensive Category:Gentlemen's clubs tree a sub-cat; of course most of these now have women members. Some clubs are much more private than others. Johnbod (talk) 21:23, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge, subjective distinction. E.g. what makes Annabel's more private than other clubs? Marcocapelle (talk) 04:33, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
 * It's the usage. Of course the various stamp-collecting etc societies in Category:Clubs and societies are private, but they can mostly be joined by anyone ready to pay the sub. Johnbod (talk) 02:51, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep 'Private members' clubs' is the recognised term for these clubs which used to be known as 'Gentleman's clubs'. They are more rarefied than other member's clubs such as Working men's clubs in British parlance. Annabel's and other clubs are exclusive as they invariably require proposers and seconders for membership before extracting a hefty annual fee. No Swan So Fine (talk) 14:16, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Merge - It would appear that this cat only exists to contain Gentleman's clubs which include women. Easily solved by a merge to Category:Clubs and societies, which would also have Category:Gentlemen's clubs as a subcat. - jc37 11:19, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
 * The articles are already elsewhere in the tree of Category:Clubs and societies so merge translates as deletion. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:15, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting backyard broadcasting stations
 * Nominator's rationale: Backyard Broadcasting sold all its stations, so there are no articles to populate this category. Sammi Brie  (she/her • t • c) 06:25, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Stadium (sports network) affiliates to Category:The Nest (TV network) affiliates
 * Nominator's rationale: Stadium OTA service to end 10/30; Nest article hasn't been created yet; rename or delete if possible Mvcg66b3r (talk) 04:50, 30 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Support as The Nest is replacing Stadium on at least all of Sinclair's stations and probably elsewhere. Additional information:  Sammi Brie  (she/her • t • c) 06:22, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. There is only one article in this category – Antoni Blank – so I think it is more appropriate to discuss whether it should be in Category:German emigrants to Poland at Talk:Antoni Blank (as opposed to CfD).  feel free to open said discussion. (This is explicitly a WP:NSUPER vote.) (non-admin closure) HouseBlastertalk 00:07, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Emigrants from the Kingdom of Prussia to Poland to Category:German emigrants to Poland
 * Nominator's rationale: small cat that's not defining for emigrants Mason (talk) 04:21, 30 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Just delete, the only article is about someone who moved from Warsaw to Dresden and after 6 years moved back to Warsaw. (And Dresden was not even part of the Kingdom of Prussia.) Marcocapelle (talk) 04:51, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
