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) 04:28, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is all one market/urban area. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 22:10, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. The relevant city cats should be added to the articles themselves, too. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 23:55, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
checkY Done. Nate • (chatter) 00:54, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support, though just emptying out those categories and adding them to the proper one is much less bureaucratic? Nate • (chatter) 00:31, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Categories emptied and Hampton Roads cat created. Nate • (chatter) 00:43, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Please do not empty categories that are part of a discussion at CFD. It defeats the purpose of people participating here and offering their opinion since the categories have been emptied. Why express an opinion when the categories could just be speedy deleted as CSD C1s? Liz Read! Talk! 01:30, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment It felt like something that easily met WP:BOLD and took me fifteen minutes to complete; the nominator should've just done it, told the TV task force 'it's done', and adjusted if there were objections/reversions, rather than waiting a week for the go-ahead here. Nate • (chatter) 03:39, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • WP:CFD explicitly says: "Except in uncontroversial cases such as reverting vandalism, do not amend or depopulate a category once it has been nominated at CfD as this hampers other editors' efforts to evaluate a category and participate in the discussion."

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Polish rebels. Kbdank71 22:47, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: There dont seem to be any other categories of insurgents, and its not clear how insurgents are different from rebels. Category:Insurgents is a redirect to Category:Rebels Rathfelder (talk) 21:16, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: keep. bibliomaniac15 05:48, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: BLP Sensitive sensitive categories because it states subject is a criminal (WP:COP#Sensitive and WP:BLPCRIMINAL). I've removed several names who were either not convicted of a crime or were convicted of misdemeanors. Additionally this is a rather narrow category so it's functional usefulness is questionable.

Nominator's rationale: downmerge, the scope of the two categories is the same and the tree of Category:LGBT has much better expanded. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:25, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Two points: "LGBT people" would be better than "LGBT" as a noun (and the category's main article has already been renamed to LGBT people and military service). Also, I think "in the military" or "and the military" would be more appropriate than "in military service", which could be taken to have an implication of conscription (such as national service) and can imply an endorsement of "military service". On a quick search, it looks like we have a mixture of the two in article titles, so I'd support moving all such article titles to the more neutral forms "in the military" and "in the <country adjective> military". — OwenBlacker (he/him; Talk; please {{ping}} me in replies) 07:50, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @OwenBlacker:, could you expand on how "military service" implies endorsement? I suspect there's some context that I'm missing. I will just also note that the article military service is not in anyway restricted to conscription. --Xurizuri (talk) 16:09, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Xurizuri: It's more common in the US for people to talk about "thanking the military for their service" than it is here in the UK — the US places a higher cultural value on their army than we do. Here, "service" implies a sense of moral endorsement that, in the UK, would be POV. And the term "military service" can be used (lazily, but colloquially) to describe "national service" when that is commonly in the military, such as is required of Israeli citizens or Norwegian citizens, for example; that would be a form of conscription (albeit very time-delimited).
    I could live with LGBT people and military service and Category:LGBT people and military service, but LGBT people in the military and Category:LGBT people in the military feels more Neutral to these British eyes. (I'd have said the same on the article RM, had I known about it.) — OwenBlacker (he/him; Talk; please {{ping}} me in replies) 18:12, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @OwenBlacker:, thank you for explaining! In Australia, we generally only refer to national service as conscription, and we'd say someone works for the military, served in the military, or is in the military. Within our colonised history, we have had very little conscription so it doesn't spring readily to mind for us. --Xurizuri (talk) 00:00, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: adding target category also for renaming.

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 05:00, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: These categories were apparently intended to be populated with every show that was in production during the stated years. Only one show was ever added. This is not part of our standard hierarchies for television shows. – Fayenatic London 17:04, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Vegan restaurants. bibliomaniac15 06:11, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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:Vegan restaurants in the United States. bibliomaniac15 06:12, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, narrow intersection and rather subjective. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:18, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't know what upmerge means? All I really want is a way to easily find fine dining vegan restaurants that doesn't require people to go look at fine dining restaurants and then at vegan restaurants and figure out for themselves where the overlap is. I disagree that this is subjective. valereee (talk) 18:04, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Valereee "Upmerge" means that its members all move into the parent category, in this case the vegan restaurants category. This will do exactly what you've asked. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 23:57, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Sammi, but that'll put it into the category with vegan counter-service restaurants, won't it? So people looking for fine dining vegan won't be able to figure out without visiting every article? valereee (talk) 16:00, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is a whole grey area between counter-service and fine dining, which is why categorization based on that is not very useful. We do not even have Category:Fine dining restaurants in the United States so a split by vegan is even less needed. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:46, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Marcocapelle, I'm not an expert in categories by any stretch. All I really want is some way for readers who are interested to easily find vegan fine dining (which, yes, is a small subset both of vegan and of fine dining). If a restaurant is described in RS as fine dining, it's not a reasonable categorization? I get that there's an element of 'I know it when I see it' but restaurant reviewers do discuss whether a restaurant is counter service, fast casual, casual, fine, etc. valereee (talk) 19:06, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
