Propose renaming Category:People murdered by Westies (criminal organization) to Category:People murdered by The Westies
Nominator's rationale: The gang is called The Westies and this article is a subcat of The Westies, so let's make things simpler and simply say People murdered by The Westies. RepublicanJacobiteTheFortyFive 15:21, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Multi-sport events by country

The result of the discussion was: put it back. The promised speedy nominations never followed the last discussion, so I'm putting it back to where it was. I've renamed
Category:Multi-sport events by country to Category:Sports festivals by country
Category:Multi-sport events in Canada to Category:Sports festivals in Canada
Category:Multi-sport events in China to Category:Sports festivals in China
Category:Multi-sport events in Denmark to Category:Sports festivals in Denmark
Category:Multi-sport events in India to Category:Sports festivals in India
Category:Multi-sport events in the Netherlands to Category:Sports festivals in the Netherlands
Category:Multi-sport events in the United Kingdom to Category:Sports festivals in the United Kingdom
Category:Multi-sport events in the United States to Category:Sports festivals in the United States

Further subcategorization can begin as desired.--Mike Selinker (talk) 14:36, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is terrible what was done to this category due to the renaming form Sports festivals by country to Multi-sport events by country. A multi-sport event is clearly a subcategory of sports festivals, but never all sports festivals are multi-sport events, see for instance Category:Multi-sport events in the United States and Category:Sports festivals in Germany. And see also the interwikis - here is needed Sports festivals by country as correct name.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Florentyna (talk • contribs) 13:17, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Separate branches?. Are you saying hierarchy should be: Category:Sports competitions → 1) International sports competitions by country 2) Multi-sport events? — Bill william comptonTalk 19:58, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I would not do too much confusion in one step. Let's first recreate the former state of the art, then we need to sort in a proper way all the competitions into the correct branches (what will be already a lot of work). The "international" thing should be discussed later due to new confusions probably arising from that (what is a football match Spain-Netherlands?). At the moment the categories are really wrong. Let's at first create a correct tree. Florentyna (talk) 20:36, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was:
Propose renaming Category:Transportation reliability to Category:Transport reliability
Nominator's rationale: Rename. It's already been estaablished that except where ENGVAR indicates that American English should be used, we use the word "transport", not "transportation".. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 12:48, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Rename, with no prejiduce against a reverse renaming as part of the entire Category:Sport in Ireland by year tree. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 20:04, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming

Category:1922 in Irish sport to Category:1922 in Irish sports & Category:1923 in Irish sport to Category:1923 in Irish sports

Nominator's rationale:

The 21st century years in sport for Ireland are all Category:2005 in Irish sports (sports with an s) so these years should be the same as the series by year for Ireland may eventually fill up between 1924 and 2002. Note though that there are more countries using sport (singular) eg Category:2011 in Australian sport with only two using sports eg Category:2011 in American sports. But all the years for a particular country should be uniform. Hugo999 (talk) 10:27, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Soria Province to Category:Province of Soria
Nominator's rationale: Per main. I'm putting this at CfD instead of speedy to ensure that there's consensus for renaming this entire scheme: Category:Provinces of Spain. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:18, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename.--Mike Selinker (talk) 06:20, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming Category:People associated with Dalkey to Category:People from Dalkey
Nominator's rationale: There are thousands of categories of the sort "People from X" rather than this naming scheme. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 00:23, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Query What to do with Bono? He's not from Dalkey but he currently lives there. Same is true for other famous residents. Laurel Lodged (talk) 22:50, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Response If you live somewhere, you are from there. It's my understanding that "People from X" categories are intentionally broad, so that you can be born there or have resided there in order to "be from" there. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:37, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • In fact, it's quite questionable whether merely being born somewhere makes a person be "from" there. Category discussions have always decided that place of birth is not of biographical importance but not defining. Good Ol’factory (talk) 01:20, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
