- The result of the discussion was: Rename to Gannett (company) (WP:NAC) with no prejudice against a further CFD (or RM of the article) if any editors want the category name and the article name to match exactly and think there might be consensus to do so.

- Propose renaming Category:Gannett Company to Category:Gannett (company) or Category:Gannett Co., Inc.
- Nominator's rationale: The company is not called "Gannett Company"; it is, instead, "Gannett" or "Gannett Co., Inc." (see website). At WP:CFD/S, it was argued that Category:Gannett would be ambiguous (see the archived discussion at the category's talk page), which is a fair point (see Gannett (disambiguation)).

- Sorry, I should have been more constructive with what I see as the solution:
- Next to supporting the first proposal of nominator (see below), I'm also supporting this variant. It is not very likely that Gannett without disambiguator is taken for something else than the company. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:13, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Nominator's rationale: The page Artsakh itself is a dab, with two primary meanings - the republic and the Armenian name of the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh. For the republic we have Category:Republic of Artsakh, while this particular category is actually about the region under its Armenian name which violates WP:NPOV. For the name of the region there's already neutral Category:Nagorno-Karabakh. Brandmeistertalk 18:49, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- The maps on the articles show they are about different geographical areas (albeit in the same region of the world). Artsakh currently is a dab - and if it was changed to a SIA (especially a dab-like SIA) (assuming that's what you mean by "an index page") then that would still indicate that it's an ambiguous name (no primary topic) and an hence unsuitable name for a category.

- The republic consists of a much smaller area, true, but the same applies to Hungary and Austria which are much smaller than before 1918 while we still have categories for Hungary and Austria including their history before 1918. It would have been more convincing if we would have had an overview article about the geographic history of Artsakh in the course of ages, but having a main article is not a mandatory requirement for having a category.

- This isn't really a matter of geography/history; it's a matter of wp categorization - it doesn't make sense for Category:Foobar to be a category (not a redirect) whilst Foobar is a dab page (or dab-like SIA). Either "Artsakh" is ambiguous (in which case it shouldn't be the title of a category) or it has a primary meaning (in which case there shouldn't be a dab page at that location). Are there any other such cases? DexDor (talk) 19:54, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Nominator's rationale: I am not sure if such a category is useful. The division of Delhi into "districts" is a fairly recent phenomenon. I believe the boundaries of these political/administrative divisions have also shifted a bit. Associating these with birth place/origin is not that easy. I have hardly seen people claiming to be from "North Delhi district". In most cases, people claim to be simply from "Dehi". There are currently 3 articles in this category Sikander Bakht, Subhadra Joshi, Saksham Yadav and I am not sure how they were classified as being from "North Delhi district". Could we delete this category please? DreamLinker (talk) 12:02, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- The problem is that districts as a formal division is a very recent phenomenon. More importantly, it is almost never applied to people. For example, I have never heard of someone being from "North Delhi district", most people will just say I am from "Delhi".--DreamLinker (talk) 08:57, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
