The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 03:46, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Figure this one out for yourself. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 23:45, 30 May 2024 (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:Cue sports writers and broadcasters. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 03:56, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Rename; three commentators and only one is a writer. The writer can be moved to the parent category. Alt: merge with Category:Cue sports writers and broadcasters given its small size. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:03, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support either, prefer alt, writers and commentators are quite different occupations (although some people profess both) and a category of three is not very helpful for navigation between articles. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:41, 31 May 2024 (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: split. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 03:54, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Split per previous precedent. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:01, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Split, writers and commentators are quite different occupations (although some people profess both). Marcocapelle (talk) 06:42, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral for the moment. I'm concerned that such a split would result in some of the resultant categories being too small for our usual tolerance level. They were combined into a kind of "cue sports media people" hybrid for this very reason. The fact that two occupations (or whatever) can be distinguished does not mean that they must be, especially if the result will be problematic, and if the original more general category is appropriately categorized with regard to its content scope so that readers can find what they are looking for, as is the case here. If we're sure that some small categories that would result from the proposed split will be kept because they are part of systematic sports-occupation and media-occupation categorization structures, then I would support the split as ultimately clearer for readers (and for editors too, actually).  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  15:00, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Manufacturing companies based in West Fargo, North Dakota

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 (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 03:48, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Overly narrow intersection of characteristics, resulting in categories with just one entry each. While some "Manufacturing companies based in Specific-City" categories do exist for major US cities with a lot of articles to be filed there, like Los Angeles or Chicago or NYC, they do not need to exist right across the board the moment a smaller city or town has one manufacturing company with an article.
No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when there are five or six articles that can be filed in each of them, but it does not aid navigation to funnel everything down into microcategories of one. Bearcat (talk) 17:46, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 03:53, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete, redundant category layer with only two subcategories. There is no need to merge, the subcategories are already under Category:History of Punjab, India and Category:History of Punjab, Pakistan. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:53, 30 May 2024 (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: delete. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 20:09, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete - I understand this was made in good faith per an ongoing Cfd on Category:West London Synagogue but there is no category tree for "religious leaders by religious building". Omnis Scientia (talk) 19:03, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose/keep A synagogue isn't a building; it's a religious community, which can exist independently of the building. As for "religious leaders by religious building" see, for example, Deans of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin and its associated category. Headhitter (talk) 13:05, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would suggest to nominate that category too. It is similar to WP:PERFCAT. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:03, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Marcocapelle, there are three such categories for Deans in Dublin only (as far as I can tell). Should I do all three or leave them for later? Omnis Scientia (talk) 18:04, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Marcocapelle, ah okay, I see. @Headhitter, Deans and archbishops are assigned to a particular city or region. That is not the case here or with Judaism. Besides that, there are no similar "Rabbis by synagogues" tree so it doesn't make sense. Omnis Scientia (talk) 14:32, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    In any case, this was made despite there being an ongoing Cfd on the matter. You should have waited for that Cfd to close before creating this category. Omnis Scientia (talk) 14:33, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: I don't see why we need two separate categories. This causes confusion with many of the articles in Category:Private secondary schools in Victoria (state) really belonging in Category:Private secondary schools in Melbourne. — GMH Melbourne (talk) 03:17, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I don't see this as an issue; its something that happens with a lot of categories which have further subcategories. Just move private schools which are in Melbourne to the appropriate category. Omnis Scientia (talk) 11:49, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge and I will copy the contents of the categories to User talk:Apandeyhp89. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 19:50, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Dual merge. This is an interesting, but non-defining intersection between royalty, nationality, military service. Perhaps a list? Mason (talk) 11:50, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Mason, thanks for the consideration of these categories. I created these three categories because Indian royals did have representation in the British Indian Army. These were mostly in ceremonial roles, as, for instance, honorary colonel, honorary major general, or more substantively in some cases, as, for instance, involvement in actual fighting or sending troops to the fights of the British Indian Army. The royals to whom I have added these three categories are all princes, rajas, or maharajas of Indian princely states. British India was composed of these two kinds of territories - regions under direct British administration, and the princely states, which came under the suzerainty of the British Crown. The rulers of the latter were required to provide men for various imperial wars, and sometimes went to serve in such wars themselves too. By creating these three categories, I thought of pooling together known instances of Indian princely state rulers and their family members who were in any capacity related to the British Indian Army. One of these three categories, however, can do better with renaming: Former Indian royals in Pakistani Army can simply become Former royals in Pakistani Army. Ultimately, however, whether to keep these three categories or not is your call, of course. Let me know what you think. Best wishes. Apandeyhp89 (talk) 15:46, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the added context. What you've written here sounds like a good case for a list or an brief article. The challenge is that categories need to be DEFINING as in the characteristic could (and often is) mentioned in the lead or is something that meets the criteria under WP:EGRS. Were these people regularly described as being Royals in the British Indian Army? Mason (talk) 23:20, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's true, perhaps then these would do better as a list. While these individuals would wear the same uniforms as others if in active service (that wasn't often the case), their commanding officer would know this person was a royal, and the officer would make it sure to neither give hard manual tasks to such personnel nor send them in the heat of battles. More often, the royals to whom I added these categories were given honorary ranks by the British Indian Army for having provided men from their princely states for colonial military expeditions and wars, such as the Waziristan campaigns, World War I and II, etc., and sometimes just as symbols of political expediency. Apandeyhp89 (talk) 09:24, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
