Category:Advocates of the European Union[edit]

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. bibliomaniac15 02:33, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is a very ill-defined category. It is mostly just a list of British politicians who supported Remain in 2016, some of which now are on board with Brexit. It is really not appropriate to describe them as "Advocates of the European Union". There is no clear logic to who is included on this list, and in any case it is a very inconclusive list, mostly chosen at random. It should be deleted. Elshad (talk) 09:44, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Pages using infobox body of water without convert template[edit]

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. MER-C 09:41, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Merge is proposed as functionally they appear want to track the same lack of conversion of the same parameters in the Infobox body of water, but the proposed merge location is what is implemented in the Infobox body of water as a tracking category.

The result of the discussion was: merge. MER-C 09:40, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: upmerge per WP:NONDEF, while Culture hero is a nice article, it is not something that Greek mythological heroes are specifically known for. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:30, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Bad television[edit]

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 Timrollpickering (talk) 17:18, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Unencyclopedic name and topic for a category. Similar to Category:Bad music currently at CfD. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:54, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, entirely subjective. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:25, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. The nominator LaundryPizza03 and Marcocapelle seem to have missed the point of this category. They seem to assume that it is being used to group TV shows which an editor has rated as "bad" ... but actually, it is clearly being used to group articles which are about works which identify bad TV.
The current name doesn't convey that clearly, so a rename is needed. Maybe "criticism of bad television" or "works identifying bad television". But please don't delete a category due to a misunderstanding of its purpose. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:22, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: There was a breach in protocol in which the contents were moved to a new category while the discussion was ongoing. Please suggest such changes in the discussion instead of unilaterally implementing them. I'm reverse merging/deleting the "Criticism of bad cinema/television" cats and relisting so that proper discussion can continue.

Category:Bad cinema[edit]

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. In light of the deletion of Category:Bad television. I'll note that a number of the respondents in this discussion seem to have misinterpreted what the category is about (which may have something to speak about the quality of the category itself). bibliomaniac15 19:23, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Same as Category:Bad television below. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:32, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Selectively merge to Category:Film criticism, the category content is not entirely nonsensical but the category cannot be kept with this subjective name. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:55, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Could be renamed Category:Bad movies, for instance. There are (presumably well-sourced) articles on this topic, so why not have a category (which is not intended to list individual films; see current category content)? Apokrif (talk) 04:56, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename. The nominator LaundryPizza03 seems to have missed the point of this category. They seem to assume that it is being used to group films which an editor has rated as "bad" ... but actually, it is clearly being used to group articles which are about works which identify bad film.
The current name doesn't convey that clearly, so a rename is needed. Maybe "criticism of bad films" or "works identifying bad films". But please don't delete a category due to a misunderstanding of its purpose. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:23, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
