Nominator's rationale: An article such as Co-driver or Zero car is not an article specifically about terminology (a subset of linguistics). In fact, none of the articles currently in the category are about terminology (the article titles may be terminology, but we categorize by topic not by title).

The result of the discussion was: rename option A. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 04:21, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Propose either:
or
Nominator's rationale: I had proposed this as a speedy renaming to Category:De La Salle Brothers schools (Hong Kong), as a minimal change per the head article De La Salle Brothers, renamed per WP:RM discussion at Talk:De La Salle_Brothers#Requested_move_21_August_2016. However, the speedy nom raised a number of concerns, and none of the possible solutions fits any of the speedy criteria.
Option A is basically a tidier version of the proposed speedy, retaining this is a category of schools. However, one of the items in the category is a biography, so the alternative is Option B , which makes this a broader category relating to the order in Hong Kong.
I prefer option A, because it causes less category clutter on the articles ... and the one article which doesn't fit is Brigant Cassian, which is already in the sub-cat Category:La Salle College. So if we go for Option A, it can simply be removed from this category. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:57, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. As noted, it looks like an WP:ENGVAR issue. I have created a redirect. Good Ol’factory (talk) 07:16, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: See Category:Radio presenters. Kanghuitari (talk) 04:43, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per WP:UE. "Presenter", in the sense of a radio or television broadcaster, is a Britishism not normally used in North American English dialects — what the Brits call a presenter, Americans (and Canadians) call a host. Wikipedia policy is to reflect local dialect variations when necessary, even if that causes some variance in the spelling or wording of category names, rather than arbitrarily forcing countries to use terminologies or spellings that would not be recognized in their own normal speech. Further, the problem that led to the creation of this category was that American radio hosts were frequently getting misfiled as Category:American DJs, even though that category is meant for the kind of DJ who is a recording or performing musician (in genres such as EDM, techno or hip hop), not the kind who is a voice on the radio — so this category was created (not by me) in order to reflect the distinction better. Renaming it to Category:American radio hosts (with this kept as a categoryredirect to that) might be suitable, but "American radio presenters" would not be consistent with the usual usage in American English.

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OVERLAPCAT and WP:OCAWARD (WP:NONDEFINING)
The Collar of the Order of the National Coat of Arms is automatically given to the President of Estonia and to no one else. The correct category here is Category:Presidents of Estonia and--look at that--everyone single person in the nominated category is already in that one! - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:22, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:PERFCAT and WP:OCAWARD (WP:NONDEFINING)
When foreign heads of state visit Venezuela, they receive one of these souvenirs from the government as part of the official welcome. I don't see how Albert I of Belgium, Queen Sofía of Spain, and American Vice Admiral Alfred Johnson are defined by a Venezuelan award. Of the 14 people in this four subcategories, zero are from Venezuela. (I don't think the remaining category is defining either but I'll nominate it later since it contains some actual Venezuelans.) To see the category clutter created by awards for visiting dignitaries, look at this mess. If we delete this category, the recipients will still be listed here. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:21, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
