The result of the debate was rename

Halfway through sorting decorative art stubs (I was tagging the textile arts with textile-stubs), I found this unlisted "crafts" template and category full of 60 textile arts, like knitting and weaving. It was not in the stub table of contents so its a discovery. Having a "craft" category could cause a conflict in scoping decorative art from crafts for others since they cover almost the same art medium when looking at the permanent categories. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with word crafts but it overlaps the category "decorative arts" almost entirely in scope, and that was not really what was inside. Here are 60 articles on textile arts (and there are more under textile-stubs). I have more tagged with textile-stub. I suggest to rename this what it is, textile arts, and change it's parent to "textile arts" rather than "arts and crafts". In our table of contents for stubs it could be added under decorative art as a subcategory of art. Goldenrowley 18:48, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I suggest rename to: textile-arts-stub and.
 * That's not just a rename, it's a "downscope", which is a slightly odd way to be going, but granted it does seem to accurately describe the current contents. If renamed, we should certainly eliminate the old template name, lest confusion become rampant.  Alai 16:20, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Whoever made this category had a limited scope, they were very concentrated on knitting. Anyway we need a textile arts category and this is what I found to start it off with. Goldenrowley 16:22, 6 October 2006 (UTC)


 * The category was labelled as a speedy deletion, it did not fit the criteria, and I removed the tag. An admin responsible for closing discussions here should deal with it. Ans e ll  06:17, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
