Category:Characters created by Roy Thomas (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Delete per precedents here and here. To illustrate the problems with "creator" categories, Adam Warlock was added, because he had altered the character from how it was originally created by Stan Lee & Jack Kirby. Postdlf 14:06, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
To me, because of the persistent issues surrounding character creation in mainstream U.S. comics from the 1930s to the present, an attempt on Wikipedia's part to organize these creations by creator and to connect these characters together (something a list would not really do) would be a great service. Most if not all of the entries list creators as per the template so there should be no reason not to categorize the entries by creator/co-creator.
The situation is not quite the same with Shakespeare or Dickens since there are really no active legal issues surrounding the creation or ownership of the characters.
If the issue is the actual phrasing of the category (ie, Roy Thomas characters vs Characters created by Roy Thomas) this is easily rectified and I wish those voting against would specify. A category like DC Comics characters also implies ownership, even when ownership may be in dispute (there will never be a category called Characters created by DC comics unless perhaps DC buys a program or monkey that randomly generates characters). --Gothamgazette 08:29, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Visegrád Group (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Created only this summer, subj. is a rather loose and passive association: the only content can be 4 member states plus the main stub, Template:Visegrád Group at their end does the same service without creating problems in category tree (see category's talk).

Category:Military drugs (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Delete, Well intentioned, but poorly thought out category. Every drug for every purpose may find use in military medicine. There are NO drugs that are unique to military medicine. Not stimulants. Not vaccines. Not anabolic steroids. Not even nerve agent antidote. All of these are used by nonmilitary healthcare providers. Apparently all that has to be done to put a drug in this category is cite a source stating that some military force has used it. This category is of little practical relevance, and completely unmanageable if carried out to its fullest logical extension. Give Peace A Chance 03:26, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Caciques of El Salvador (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Delete. To judge from the circumstances of its creation, and its solitary entry, this category is intended for indigenous rulers/figures from the pre-Columbian/conquest era history of the region (now embraced by the modern country). A couple of problems with this category, however- (1) 'El Salvador' as a nation/concept did not exist in this era, so its use for this category is anachronistic. (2) 'Cacique' is a conquest-era spanish adoption of a title meaning "ruler" or "chieftain", which was in some general use at that time but actually comes from the indigenous Caribbean languages, and not those of this region (in particular, not Pipil/Nawat), and so its use is out-of-place here. Delete this category, the alternative ones now assigned to its sole entry should be sufficient.cjllw | TALK 02:50, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
