Rationale updated' CN1 (talk) 22:37, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The subcategories are named either "X terms" or "X terminology", but their content is - as far as I can see - the same, so is there actually a difference between these descriptions? Should we not choose one of them and apply to all subcategories? I have no strong favourite for either of these two, so what do you think? I got the idea from translating the descriptions into german and "terminology" and "term" are translated to two very different looking and sounding words which I think is bad for catgories of the same object.

The result of the discussion was: rename/merge. This discussion did not decide to change the format of the subcategories; they were not nominated. Good Ol’factory (talk) 06:52, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: per actual content. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:47, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • To me this is an issue of low priority. There is no ambiguity in the current names of the subcats, everyone will hopefully understand that French society is equivalent to Society of France. But if anyone else would bother about it and propose that as a next step, I would support it for consistency reasons. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:44, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Do not change It is not a low priority, it is the core of the problem since your nomination rationale only says rename "per actual content" but the subcategories are the exact opposite of what you say--they are all named in the nationality pattern. You need to nominate all of them with some valid reason or withdraw the nomination. Hmains (talk) 03:39, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete category and recategorize articles when needed. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 05:07, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:OC#SUBJECTIVE. This is the only "football personalities" category in en wp. For info: This category was created with inappropriate text and inappropriate parent category. Most of the articles in this category are in Category:Ghanaian footballers. Some (e.g. Asamoah Gyan) have many many category tags. James Oyedeji and Kwesi Nyantakyi could be upmerged to Category:Football people in Ghana. DexDor (talk) 05:56, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Recently created category has one article, which does not currently mention the topic. It seems to be a "welfare trust" of some kind (based on this edit which was later removed from the article. — TAnthonyTalk 02:57, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
