February 26

Category:MARCA

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. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 09:03, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Eponymous overcategorization for just one newspaper and its associated television station. This is not enough spinoff content to warrant a category for them -- it would be fine if there were a lot of spinoff content here, but for just two articles that already crosslink each other anyway it's just a navigationally unnecessary WP:SMALLCAT.

Category:Principality of Samos

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: merge to Category:History of Samos. There was other content here besides the eponym itself that needed to be moved. Bearcat (talk) 00:01, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:SMALLCAT, only contains the eponymous article and a subcategory. No need to merge, I have already added the article to Category:History of Samos. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:01, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:SMALLCAT, the categories only contain the eponymous article and a subcategory. No need to merge, I have already added the articles to Category:Subdivisions of Kievan Rus'. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:31, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Ukrainian medical doctors

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: no consensus. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 06:49, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: To align with the subcategories Category:Ukrainian women physicians, Category:Ukrainian physicians by century and Category:20th-century Ukrainian physicians (and Wikipedia Commons). While "medical doctors" is the term used in many English-speaking and British or ex-British countries, this does not apply to the Ukraine. Hugo999 (talk) 00:35, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The vast majority of Category:Physicians by nationality are physicians. We should be consistent unless there is good reason not to be, otherwise we are giving the impression that physicians and medical doctors are in some way to be distinguished from each other. Rathfelder (talk) 14:13, 17 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
earlier discussion at CFD/S
  • Comment Will move to full discussion; as I recall the earlier "medical doctors" versus "physicians" was about retaining "medical doctors" categories for British and ex-British countries but that hardly applies to the Ukraine. Hugo999 (talk) 23:54, 17 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted from CFD 2018 February 18 to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Category:Weather beacons

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. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:44, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The articles in this category (apart from the eponymous article* which may need to be upmerged) are articles about corporations, buildings, TV channels etc for which having a weather beacon (for a period) is non-defining - the articles (e.g. Näsinneula) don't generally mention the weather beacon in the lede. Note: the article  contains a list. DexDor (talk) 12:14, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
and Weather Machine. DexDor (talk) 20:35, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Many of the articles in the category aren't about buildings. DexDor (talk) 20:35, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Years and decades in Castile

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: merge/delete per nominator. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:39, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Example
The full list of nominated categories can be found in this section.
Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, mostly just one article per category. This is follow-up on a previous nomination that was supported in principle but considered to be too broad so that country specific details could not be discussed. So here is a first separate country nomination. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:19, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support but limited to Castile, but at this stage merge to decade in Iberia (covering Portugal, Castile, Aragon and a few other states) and see what that looks like, rather than straight to a Europe category. We can then see what that looks like before merging further. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:37, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 09:06, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Seems like it will be a WP:SMALLCAT for the foreseeable future, category is unnecessary. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 16:12, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Works about knees

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 (non-admin closure). Marcocapelle (talk) 09:10, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is a silly category, containing only one sub-cat and a single article, which really doesn't belong in the category, IMO. Just because the word "knee" is in the name of the movie doesn't mean it's "about knees", ferkrisake. Anomalous+0 (talk) 14:11, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:DiMuro family (MLB)

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: merge. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 09:16, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT, category contains only 3 articles. TM 13:41, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Atomic bombings

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 (non-admin closure). Marcocapelle (talk) 09:19, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is a superfluous and completely unnecessary category. (It is comprised entirely of one subcategory, ‹The template Cat is being considered for merging.› Category:Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.) In the event that there is ever another atomic bombing -- perish the thought -- it can be resurrected at that time. (Assuming, of course, that we don't need resurrecting, ourselves... ) Anomalous+0 (talk) 09:04, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Great Florida Birding Trail

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. Bearcat (talk) 00:07, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Being on this trail is non-defining for many/most/all of the places in the category (e.g. Bahia Honda Key and Lemon Bay).  Siesta Beach doesn't mention the trail and Key West Tropical Forest & Botanical Garden doesn't mention birds. Note: Great Florida Birding Trail and List of sites in the South section of the Great Florida Birding Trail may need to be upmerged.
For info: Many places-on-trail categories have previously been deleted - e.g. CFD from January. DexDor (talk) 07:17, 26 February 2018 (UTC) (Adjusted DexDor (talk) 08:34, 3 March 2018 (UTC))[reply]

Category:Bay Area Rapid Transit stations with ticket exchange windows

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 (non-admin closure). Marcocapelle (talk) 09:22, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Trivial category. Wikipedia is not a travel guide; the presence of a ticket exchange window at a station is not significant enough to justify a separate category. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 07:15, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Albums recorded in a home studio

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: relisting on current date for further discussion. Bearcat (talk) 00:13, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is a really trivial category and its inclusion in indie music seems pretty ropy at best... ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:30, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Restricting to albums primarily recorded in a home studio is reasonable, but I don't see how a manor doesn't count (so long as somebody actually uses it as a home).--Ilovetopaint (talk) 21:28, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Boxers from Kavajë

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: merge both. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 09:31, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Propose merging:
Nominator's rationale: per WP:SMALLCAT. The one article Andrea Derjaj is already in Category:Albanian male boxers, so no need for dual upmerge. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 04:02, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
adding Category:Cyclists from Kavajë whose 3 articles are already in Category:Albanian male cyclists. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:20, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Would you consider nominating ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:Cyclists from Kavajë (3 articles) as well?--TM 16:48, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Namiba: good idea; done. Would you consider adding a !vote? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:22, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Merge both per nom.--TM 17:36, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Wikipedia:Gender

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: merge. Renaming the target would require a further nomination. – Fayenatic London 22:38, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category:Wikipedia gender is an administration category for pages related to gender on Wikipedia. It is not helpful to further segment it by gender, especially when all three categories are rather lightly populated at the moment.

Category:American mixed martial artists of Italian descent

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: merge to Category:American sportspeople of Italian descent. Bearcat (talk) 00:20, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization by ethnicity. Nothing unique about American MMA artists of Italian descent. TM 01:08, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That was an oversight on my part. I forgot to add the dual merge to the nomination. Thanks for catching it. I've added it to the proposal.--TM 13:39, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
