Category:1430s establishments in Poland

 * 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: Merge (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkl  talk  21:10, 27 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Propose merging Category:1430s establishments in Poland to Category:15th-century establishments in Poland
 * Propose merging Category:1460s establishments in Poland to Category:15th-century establishments in Poland
 * Propose merging Category:1480s establishments in Poland to Category:15th-century establishments in Poland
 * Propose merging Category:1490s establishments in Poland to Category:15th-century establishments in Poland
 * Nominator's rationale: New cluster of one, two or three-item categories. As always, navigation of Wikipedia is not aided by obsessively filtering everything down into narrow categories of just one or two articles each -- these would be fine if there were a lot of things to file in each of them, but with only seven articles total across these four categories combined, that's too narrow and they don't need to be categorized more specifically than by century until there are a lot more things. Bearcat (talk) 19:30, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment There are similar one, two or three-item categories for other countries like Denmark, France, Ireland, etc., for the same time period. Logical would be to either keep these categories, or merge those as well. Marcin 303 (talk) 10:02, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I can only deal with categories I've noticed. In this case, I noticed these categories because you left each of them filed in at least one redlinked (i.e. nonexistent) parent category that I had to clean up from the redlinked category report — which means I saw these, and didn't see any others that you might consider equivalent. If this closes with a merge, then obviously you're perfectly free to propose those other categories for similar merges on the same grounds — but I nominated these categories because they were the ones I saw in the process of cleaning up an error you made. Bearcat (talk) 18:37, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Merge per nom. –Aidan721 (talk) 14:54, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Support per nom Mason (talk) 02:08, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose Size is not a reason to merge everything to a century category and make navigation difficult. Small categories are useful. Dimadick (talk) 08:59, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Too-small categories are what makes navigation difficult, so the second part of your rationale contradicts the first. Bearcat (talk) 16:39, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge; no objection against recreation if it can be appropriately populated. House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 02:56, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Category:English-language television shows

 * 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: containerise. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  21:36, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting english-language television shows
 * Nominator's rationale: delete, there are - not surprisingly - no less than 18,000 articles here, this is just categorizing for the sake of itself and not to help readers to easily find the most related articles. Categorizing by English language may be well be useful on other Wikipedias but not here at en.wp. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:27, 19 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Propose containerization. I agree that this isn't all that useful in its existing form, but subbing them out by specific country of production would result in more useful and defining groupings of genuinely related articles. Bearcat (talk) 19:33, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Diffuse as proposed by Bearcat but also by genre, year, and studio, following the example of Category:English-language films. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 11:15, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep: This category is to help navigating categories like "shows by language" etc. I know that many people view English as default language simply due to sheer dominance of Hollywood in the Western world, but it is not, and it shouldn't be given such treatment on Wikipedia, and should instead be treated as any other language. That is, it should have its own language category for shows, films, songs, etc. Otherwise, you send the message that English is default language of media, and all other media should go into their own seperate language categories.Artemis Andromeda (talk) 01:33, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * It is the opposite, English language is very dominant especially on en.wp and everyone will understand that. That the proposal sends the message that English is defunct is absurd. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:30, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I am guessing Artemis Andromeda meant "default", not "defunct"? House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 02:54, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi. Yes, I meant "default". Autocorrect did me dirty there Artemis Andromeda (talk) 03:56, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:AJR (band) albums to Category:AJR albums

 * Propose renaming Category:AJR (band) album covers to Category:AJR album covers

 * Speedy discussion has been saved here. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 14:25, 19 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Fails WP:C2D: it generally does not apply to proposals to remove a disambiguator from the category name, even when the main article is the primary topic of its name, i.e. it does not contain a disambiguator. Categories do not follow the same naming disambiguation conventions as articles. –Aidan721 (talk) 16:34, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * In full discussion we may put speedy criteria aside though. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:43, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * C2D no longer applies as this isn't a speedy proposal anymore. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 06:16, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Support Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars's proposal (i.e. delete Category:AJR (band) and rename the rest as nominated).

 * Propose merging category to Category:1920s murders in Ireland, Category:1920s crimes in Northern Ireland, and Category:20th-century murders in Northern Ireland

 * Propose merging category to Category:1960s murders in Ireland, Category:1960s crimes in Northern Ireland, and Category:20th-century murders in Northern Ireland
 * Nominator's rationale: Not a very useful tree before the 1970s. WP:NARROW. Only 1-3 articles in the nominated categories for upmerging. No need to merge Northern Ireland categories to UK categories as they are already in YYYY murders in the UK. –Aidan721 (talk) 13:30, 19 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom, but presumably Category:1940 murders in Europe and Category:1942 murders in Europe are also relevant merge targets for the RoI categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:16, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: Except for these, all other sibling categories in are named as "Real estate companies of Country", not "Property companies of Country". Ireland seems to be the one oddity where both categories seem to exist with "real estate" sitting as a subcategory of "property" -- with the added bonus that they're both sitting in the by-country category as sibling categories for the same country. In the other countries, "property" exists instead of "real estate" rather than alongside it, but the divergence has caused several real estate companies in those countries to get left in the  parent due to the seeming lack of a country-specific subcategory.

 * Rename Italy and UAE, reverse merge and redirect for Ireland, keep UK & Malaysia as WP:ENGVAR. As a young Brit, hearing "real estate agent" on TV sounded like nonsense – what, as opposed to a pretend estate agent?? – Fayenatic  L ondon 17:45, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

 * shouldn't the British, Irish and Malaysian categories become "estate agents", aligned with Estate agent? Marcocapelle (talk) 16:41, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * No, Estate agent is not the same as property company. Sorry for any confusion; I only mentioned agents as the first context in which I ever heard the phrase "real estate". – Fayenatic  L ondon 21:42, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Rebel groups in Myanmar to Category:Paramilitary organisations based in Myanmar
 * Nominator's rationale: These two categories overlap considerably and pretty much serve the same purpose. I know that not all paramilitary organizations are rebel groups but there are no articles in either that can be distinguished in that way. That said I would be opposed the creation of a separate category for the ethnic armed organisations (EAOs) as there is a distinction between them and WWII resistance movements like the Anti-Fascist Organisation. Charles Essie (talk) 00:40, 19 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Oppose, part of series under Category:Rebel groups by country and it is not clear why Myanmar would be an exception in this tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:43, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose for the same reason as above- better to be consistent with others. I think a subcategory for EAOs would definitely be helpful.  EmeraldRange  (talk/contribs) 20:08, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * You're right. Proposal withdrawn. Charles Essie (talk) 03:01, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
