Category:Food and drink user templates (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Propose renaming Category:A.S.C. member to Category:American Society of Cinematographers members
Nominator's rationale: Rename to make it plural and expand the abbreviation. Darwinek (talk) 00:08, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I can live with either listifying or renaming per nom here. Since the category contains the list, a few of which are redlinks, I'm slightly more in favour of making an article out of it (or appending to the ASC's article, it's short enough), but failing that getting rid of the acronym is a good plan.

Category:Rabbinic Levites (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Delete per my comments here. רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 04:01, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Upmerge per nominator. As the nominator pointed out elsewhere (see his link), there is no inherent connection between being a Cohen or Levi and being a rabbi. Debresser (talk) 13:28, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Upmerge per nominator. Being a Rabbi is a matter of study and ordination, being a Kohen or Levite is a matter of parentage. The two categories should remain separated. -- Avi (talk) 23:57, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Upmerge to Category:Levites per nom. All these people are already included in Category:Rabbis or one of its subcategories, so it doesn't make sense to me that they should be further classified as Kohen, Levi or Yisrael. This just seems to be an unnecessary classification. Yoninah (talk) 23:20, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Rabbinic Kohanim

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. I am closing as "delete" instead of "upmerge" to avoid creating unnecessary recategorization work. Of the 21 article in this category, 16 already are in Category:Kohanim or Category:People of Kohanim descent. The remaining 5 articles—Abraham Isaac Kook, Dovid Leibowitz, Irving Greenberg, Ishmael ben Elisha ha-Kohen and Nesanel Quinn—may be added to either category as appropriate. -- Black Falcon (talk) 22:02, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Category:Rabbinic Kohanim (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Delete per my comments here. רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 03:59, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. To make things easier for editors who want to contribute to this discussion, please post a summary of your rationale here with the nomination. Editors should not have to go to another page in order to get any hint of the reason for the suggested deletion. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:42, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Notifications: I have notified WT:JEW. It's a pity that the nominator did not do this. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:42, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Upmerge to Category:Kohanim or perhaps Category:People of Kohanim descent – OCAT trivial intersection. Occuli (talk) 11:53, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think that Rabbinic Kohanim is a useful sub-category of Kohanim or People of Kohanim descent, because that status gives them both limitations (such as the prohibition against going into cemeteries or doing funerals) or rights (such as "duchening": delivering the Birkat Kohanim/Aaronide blessing) which has an impact on their roles as rabbis. Plus, one of the roles of the ancient Kohanim, according to the Bible, was to teach the differences between the "pure" and the "impure" (and by extension, between right and wrong), part of the role of the modern rabbi, so it is an interesting sub-category, to see which kohanim are continuing the ancient roles. Some rabbis have had increased followings because of their identities as kohanim. Finally, there is a category of Rabbinic Levi'im, a sub-category of Levi'im, so it would make sense to have Rabbinic Kohanim as a sub-category of Kohanim.
