Category:New Age texts
- 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: disperse to other categories, mainly Category:New Age books, Category:New Age literature and Category:New Age media, as suggested below. -- Black Falcon (talk) 22:13, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:New Age texts to Category:New Age books
- Nominator's rationale: In principle the difference between Category:Religious texts and Category:Books about religion is clear, as in the case of say Category:Christian texts versus Category:Books about Christianity. In practice the distinction between "New Age texts" and "New Age books" is less clearcut and editors seem to be adding articles to one or other category at random. Better to merge the categories than to impose and police some arbitrary standard for distinguishing them. jnestorius(talk) 19:06, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
- Merge This distinction only works when there is an extablished body of religious texts, which in some ways is hard to exist in something as free form as "new age", although at some point "new age" may come to refer to a specific movement in the same way as "modernism", at present it is still in its growing phase, especially from the perspective of defining texts.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:08, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Most of the articles in this category are books and should be moved to the Category:New Age books category. However, there are exceptions. Dreamspell is not a book, it is a proposed calendar. The Michael Teachings are religious doctrines taken from a book, but we have no article on the book. Savitri: A Legend and a Symbol is a poem, loosely based on the Mahabharata. Seth Material is not a single book, it is a collection of "channeled" texts, adapted into multiple books over a period of decades. Dimadick (talk) 19:29, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment. I moved the articles which are obviously about books to the Category:New Age books. The question now is what to do with the remainder. It is a hodgepodge, perhaps upmerge it to Category:New Age literature, and add child Category:Channelled texts also to Category:Religious texts as a partial upmerge. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:14, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- I like your suggestion. Maybe Dreamspell can go further up to Category:New Age media rather than Category:New Age literature. jnestorius(talk) 13:45, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:41, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: relisted, see here. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:24, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: With only three articles, all of which are already interlinked, this is too few members for categorization (WP:SMALLCAT) —Farix (t | c) 12:47, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

Category:6th century in Israel
- 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. The sole member article is already in Category:6th-century establishments in the Byzantine Empire, which is a sub of Category:6th-century establishments in Asia. -- Black Falcon (talk) 22:30, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:6th century in Israel to Category:6th century in the Byzantine Empire
- Nominator's rationale: An obvious case of anachronism, as the territory of modern Israel was at the time governed by the Byzantine Empire, which already has an appropriate category. GreyShark (dibra) 11:52, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
- Support in principle however the one article is already in Category:6th-century establishments in the Byzantine Empire. On the other hand it can still be added to Category:6th-century establishments in Asia. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:07, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
- De facto delete since the article is already better categorized in another way.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:08, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment I agree that the category is an anachronism. However, the single article is not an event for the main category Category:6th century in the Byzantine Empire. It is a synagogue established in Byzantine Palestine. Based on an inscription, it was established during the reign of Justin I (518-527), the dynasty founder of the Justinian dynasty. Dimadick (talk) 19:42, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
- Presumably adding the article to Category:6th-century establishments in Asia should address that problem. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:31, 3 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. "Israel" can have multiple meanings, but either it's an anachronism because "Israel" is far away in the future or far away in the past, or it's a symbolic usage of "Israel" to mean Judaism. Neither one is appropriate to use for categorisation. Nyttend (talk) 12:21, 11 November 2017 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: With only two articles, this is too few members for categorization (WP:SMALLCAT). Creator originally included Rube Goldberg machine, but I removed it per WP:CATDEF. —Farix (t | c) 10:45, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: With only four articles, all of which are already interlinked, this is too few members for categorization (WP:SMALLCAT). It is questionable whether the article about song really belong in this category. —Farix (t | c) 10:06, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: With only three articles, all of which are already interlinked, this is too few members for categorization (WP:SMALLCAT). "Call Me Maybe" was also in this category, but there is no strong connection to the song to the manga or anime series. —Farix (t | c) 10:04, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
- TheFarix accidentally added this twice to the page. The other nomination included the following extra information:

- Nominator's rationale: With only three articles, all of which are already interlinked, this is too few members for categorization (WP:SMALLCAT). When populating the category, the creator added several voice actor actress articles in order to pad the category out, but this isn't done on other anime related category. —Farix (t | c) 10:02, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). Marcocapelle (talk) 06:41, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Only one articles for the category. Category creator attempted to stick in voice actresses articles into the category in order to pad it out, but that isn't done on any anime related article. This is too few members for categorization (WP:SMALLCAT) —Farix (t | c) 09:59, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

Category:All non-free logos

- The result of the discussion was: no consensus. If anyone is interested, I started a related thread at Template talk:Non-free logo#Category code. -- Black Falcon (talk) 20:27, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: This category was/is a duplicate of Category:Non-free logos. It was populated almost exclusively by school logos until I changed Template:Non-free school logo to categorize into Category:Non-free logos several days ago. Brightgalrs (/braɪtˈɡæl.ərˌɛs/)[1] 06:51, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
- Keep and edit the templates. All pages should be placed into the lowest level of any category tree: a nonfree logo shouldn't be put in "Nonfree logos" if it can also be put into one of the subcategories, e.g. Category:Non-free software logos. However, for some purposes (e.g. facilitating bot maintenance), it sometimes helps to have every page in the whole category tree show up together in a single location: that's what pretty much every "All [topic]" category does, and that's what this is doing.
