 * Propose renaming Category:Drum Corps Associates corps to Category:Former Drum Corps Associates corps
 * Nominator's rationale: The organization was dissolved and the members moved to the All-Age classification of Drum Corps International. I wish to rename it to Former Drum Corps Associates corps for maintaining the grouping for its historicity. Why? I Ask (talk) 06:05, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

 * No, they should not be in both, because if Category:Drum Corps Associates corps would be kept as Category:Former Drum Corps Associates corps, then Category:All-age drum corps would be its parent category. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:55, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Nope, because some corps had switched to being junior corps (e.g., Carolina Gold Drum and Bugle Corps). Why? I Ask (talk) 00:53, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * In that case delete, this merely leads to WP:OCAT and WP:OVERLAPCAT. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:55, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @Marcocapelle: How about this? Have Category:All-age drum and bugle corps point to both Category:Drum Corps Associates corps (for the defunct corps that did not make the move to Drum Corps Internationa) and Category:Drum Corps International All-Age Class corps‎ (for the modern ones). Would support either changing the name or keeping it. But I do not support deletion for this category. Why? I Ask (talk) 05:23, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose upmerging Category:Slavic-American history to Category:European-American history
 * Nominator's rationale: Follow-up to Categories for discussion/Log/2024 April 7, Articles for deletion/Slavic Americans (2nd nomination), Articles for deletion/Slavic diaspora, Categories for discussion/Log/2023 August 26, and many more. This is a classic example of an inappropriate intersection of the Category:People by nationality tree and the Category:People by ethnicity tree. There is no country in the world whose nationals are all native speakers of a language of the same language family. NLeeuw (talk) 21:15, 23 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Merge, trivial intersection as is obvious from the very small amount of overarching topic articles. Funnily enough, Hunky (ethnic slur) is derived from Hungarian, who are not Slavic at all. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:54, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Category:Mohave tribe

 * 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: Rename * Pppery * it has begun... 21:05, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Mohave tribe to Category:Mohave
 * Nominator's rationle: The Mohave people belong to two tribes, the Fort Mojave Indian Tribe and the Colorado River Indian Tribes. The current name implies that the Mohave people belong to a single tribe. Rename for accuracy. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 20:19, 6 April 2024 (UTC)


 *  Comments I guess the proposed move is an improvement, although the fact that people belong to two different federally recognized tribes does not prevent them belonging to a single (non federally recognized) tribe. It is best to forestall readers drawing the inference, even if it is an invalid inference, hence deleting " people tribe"† from the name is an improvement. OTOH article Mohave is currently a dab, so the shorter name may be ambiguous. I ask whether WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America has (or ought to have) any standard/guideline for category (and corresponding article) names —— e.g. capitalization; legal name vs common name; and group taxonomy labels (e.g. "people" vs "nation" vs "tribe" vs nothing; always vs disambiguation vs never). From browsing, I infer that "Category:Foo people" is the standard for subcats of Category:Native American people by tribe, so Category:Mohave people is about individuals (plural "people") whereas Mohave people is about the group (singular "people"). (The fact that Category:Mohave people is a subcat of Category:Native American people by tribe also seems to imply, contra the nomination, that that the Mohave people are in some sense a tribe.) jnestorius(talk) 23:55, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
 * † corrected myself: current name is "Mohave tribe", not "Mohave people" jnestorius(talk) 22:24, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Regardless whether it is renamed or not, shouldn't we convert the category page to a disambiguation page just like in article space? Marcocapelle (talk) 06:13, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @Jnestorius Being a people is not the same as being a tribe. EG, the article for Cherokee refers to them as an Indigenous people belonging to three tribes; the Cherokee Nation, the Eastern Band, and the United Keetoowah Band. Mohave peoplehood doesn't imply being a single tribe. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 11:14, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * the article for Cherokee refers to them as an Indigenous people belonging to three tribes No, it says "three Cherokee tribes are federally recognized", not the same thing. It also says 'By the 19th century, White American settlers had classified the Cherokee of the Southeast as one of the "Five Civilized Tribes"'. Five Civilized Tribes says "The term Five Civilized Tribes was applied ... to the five major Native American nations in the Southeast". Category:Cherokee people is a direct subcat of Category:Native American people by tribe. Article Tribe (Native American) says "In the United States, an American Indian tribe, Native American tribe, Alaska Native village, Indigenous tribe or Tribal nation may be any current or historical tribe, band, nation, or community of Native Americans in the United States. ... Many terms used to describe Indigenous peoples of the United States are contested but have legal definitions that are not always understood by the general public." We have a variety of words (tribe, band, nation, community, people, ...) used variously across different articles and categories, sometimes in accordance with a US federal legal definition, sometimes in a different sense used by ethnologists or historians; sometimes meaning an ethnic group, sometimes a subcomponent of an ethnic group split out by geography, administration, or something else. Are you implying that Wikipedia article/category titles should always used words in the sense given to them by U.S. federal law? That is certainly not true in general; it may be the consensus for WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America but I have not seen evidence of that yet. jnestorius(talk) 13:36, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Comments in general would be appreciated, but in particular input on whether this should be a category disambiguation and the precise new name – if it is to be renamed – whether the new name should be "Mohave" or "Mojave". Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 04:28, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Support for simiplicity's sake, although Category:Mojave would be even better. "tribe" lowercased isn't a problem, so not enthusiastic about massive renaming of all Foo tribe categories. Yuchitown (talk) 23:55, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Yuchitown

 * Speedy rename to Category:Mohave people per WP:C2D. The main article is Mohave people. Let's not make it needlessly complicated. NLeeuw (talk) 14:31, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Your proposed new name is not available, because it is an existing subcategory. Are you suggesting merging the two? In general we have separate categories for an ethnicity and for people who have that ethnicity; merging them only makes sense if they are both small. jnestorius(talk) 17:37, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Hmmm now that you mention it, yes. The subcategory (created February 2023) has only 3 articles and a subsubcategory with 2 articles.
 * Step 1: Upmerge Category:Mohave people (3 P) and Category:Colorado River Indian Tribes people (2 P) to Category:Mohave tribe per WP:MFN.
 * Step 2: Rename Category:Mohave tribe to Category:Mohave people per WP:C2D. NLeeuw (talk) 04:54, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * That's even worse, as it mixes together the Mohave tribes with Mohave individuals. That's the opposite of the clarity I was seeking by nominating the category for renaming. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 12:49, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Fwiw, step 1 and 2 can be combined by merging Category:Mohave tribe and Category:Colorado River Indian Tribes people to Category:Mohave people. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:14, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Which I would oppose, because it lumps together both the Mohave as a whole with Mohave individuals. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 12:47, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. This would be consistent with the names of topic categories for many other tribes. Although Mohave redirects to the disambiguation page Mojave, (i) Mohave people is clearly the primary meaning, (ii) that category name is already taken for the biographies subcat, and (iii) the current disambiguator "tribe" is unsatisfactory in this case. – Fayenatic  L ondon 12:08, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Category:Film controversies in Spain

 * 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: withdrawn on behalf of NL. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 01:00, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting film controversies in spain
 * Nominator's rationale: All 4 items are articles about the films themselves. Follow-up to previous CfDs finding that the controversy should be the subject of a stand-alone article, and not just a (sub)section in the article about the film itself.
 * Precedents:
 * Articles about films themselves cannot be labelled "controversial" per WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. Category:Controversial films has been repeatedly deleted (last in 2008).
 * Categories for discussion/Log/2020 October 1: keep. There also appears to be consensus that articles about the films themselves should not be placed in this category.
 * Categories for discussion/Log/2021 October 23 (deleted)
 * Categories for discussion/Log/2021 October 23 (deleted)
 * Categories for discussion/Log/2022 March 5 (films purged, remainder merged to Category:Film controversies).
 * That also applies here. Should a sufficient number of stand-alone articles about film controversies in Spain be written, this category can be re-created without prejudice. NLeeuw (talk) 14:20, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Qwerfjkl  talk  18:25, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:34, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Procedural oppose. I would note that there are 59 other sibling categories in, and all of them are populated almost entirely by "the films themselves" rather than "stand-alone" articles about the controversies as separate topics. So I'm unclear on why this would be different than all of the others — either they're all problematic for the same reasons and need to be collectively considered together, or this is as valid as the others, and there's no legitimate reason to single this one out for different treatment than the others. As well, most of the "precedents" listed above aren't particularly relevant here — Christmas, adventure and animation didn't get deleted on the grounds that it was fundamentally improper to categorize films as "controversial", they got deleted on the grounds that the intersection of controversy with genre wasn't defining. So I'm not at all wedded to the need for this, but those categories have nothing to do with it because they're not the same issue in the slightest. Bearcat (talk) 15:53, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Fair points. In my defence, I didn't intend to single out Spain and spare all other countries in the world; I was just busy improving the Category:Culture of Spain tree, as you can see.
 * Per WP:OTHERSTUFF, feel free to follow-up nominate all other categories populated only by articles about the films and not stand-alone articles on the controversies they created. I did not intend setting a higher standard for Spain; if we conclude this category is improper, or at least improperly populated at the moment, that should evidently apply to all children of Category:Film controversies by country. NLeeuw (talk) 19:42, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * While I understand that we cannot single out one country, I would encourage a broader nomination. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:17, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Yes, although I would rather not play the role of nominator of the follow-up discussion. Unless someone knows of a way to easily tag 61 categories for discussion, and not make lots of people angry and confused? ;) NLeeuw (talk) 22:12, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Support merging Category:Harvest deities to Category:Agricultural deities, but keep Category:Food deities instead of merging it, I think the Food gods/goddesses are related but not the exact same thing as Agricultural gods/goddesses. AHI-3000 (talk) 21:23, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
 * In principle, I agree with you, but all the deities I checked that are currently categorized as food gods/goddesses/deities are actually harvest/agriculture gods.  Pepper Beast    (talk)  00:20, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose merge for Food deities agree with @AHI-3000, The Hindu goddess Annapurna (goddess) is the goddess of food, but is unrelated to Agriculture. Phosop is the goddess of rice, not agriculture in general. Mellona is the goddess of apples.  Redtigerxyz  Talk 16:48, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Food and agricultural/ Harvest are two different characteristics. There is many agricultural/harvest deities, who are also related to Grain, thus food. There are other overlaps also. Many agricultural deities are also fertility deities as they make humans and the land fertile. Redtigerxyz  Talk 14:24, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep as this awards are defining characteristic of recipients and they are frequently labelled as Padma Awardee in references. Another reason is lists of Padma awardees are not by their fields but by year. Each list contains all awardee of all field in a year.

Or else it is a random place, e.g. the place of the hospital where they died, which is not defining. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:28, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting screwball pitchers
 * Nominator's rationale: In baseball, unlike knuckleball pitchers who are utterly unique and stand apart from all other pitchers, its actually hard to tell screwball pitchers apart from someone throwing a circle changeup so people who never threw one are in here. And while throwing a real screwball is uncommon, they aren't so rare as to warrant a category of their own - certainly not as rare as knuckleball pitchers. Omnis Scientia (talk) 12:02, 23 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. Unlike knuckleball pitchers, throwing a screwball is not a defining characteristic. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:11, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:MIT Engineers seasons to Category:MIT Engineers
 * Nominator's rationale: Only one subcategory. Let&#39;srun (talk) 11:47, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: no consensus. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 12:49, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Feminist historians to Category:Women's historians
 * Nominator's rationale: merge to clarify that this is about women's history rather than a category of historians who happen to support feminism. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:53, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't this one be more specific to Historians of feminism? Mason (talk) 22:18, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I would be perfectly ok with creating a subCategory:Historians of feminism. Just renaming the nominated category to Category:Historians of feminism is currently not possible however because not all entries of this category would belong there. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:32, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Flemish sinologists to Category:Flemish orientalists
 * Nominator's rationale: Non-defning intersection between ethnicity (flemish) and subspecialization. Single merge because the only person in the category is already in the French sinologists category. Mason (talk) 04:00, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose splitting Category:Czech-Polish translators to Category:Czech translators and Category:Polish translators

 * Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:49, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose Why is it redundant? It includes 5 articles and clearly has a scope for expansion. Dimadick (talk) 22:43, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I have removed Corned beef and Goulash but I will withdraw my support because of the other three articles that have just been added. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:00, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Because those article weren't in there when I nominated it, just the subcategory. But now that they are, my position has changed. Withdrawn. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 07:36, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
