Nominator's rationale: These are the same category, just with different formatting/wording. "Antarctic culture" matches the format of the other continents listed in Category:Culture by continent. Jmertel23 (talk) 22:24, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose renaming Category:Pollinator decline pesticides to Category:Pesticides implicated in pollinator decline
Nominator's rationale: Grammatically awkward. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 21:42, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Marcocapelle (talk) 09:05, 3 April 2020 (UTC) [reply]
  • Who is doing the accusing and when? This, like all categories, is meant to be permanent, so even assuming we can agree on whose accusation merits inclusion, once the accusation is refuted (assuming it is retracted by all accusers), the chemical remains in this category.

  • Propose renaming:
  • Category:Template Category TOC on category with less than 100 pages to Category:Template Category TOC on category with fewer than 100 pages
  • Category:Template Large category TOC on category with less than 200 pages to Category:Template Large category TOC on category with fewer than 200 pages
  • Category:Template Large category TOC on category with less than 1200 pages to Category:Template Large category TOC on category with fewer than 1200 pages
Nominator's rationale: Grammar. Opera hat (talk) 02:57, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The new categories all avoid that grammatical faux-pas, and are listed here:
Category TOC tracking categories

((Category TOC))

((Large category TOC))

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: 'no consensus. As a general point about conduct of CFD, I find no fault in the creation of well-populated siblings during the discussion, but it should be accepted that such new categories could be brought into the action arising if there is a consensus to rename/merge/delete. – Fayenatic London 07:13, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary category since list of hospitals is not split by county in parent Category:Hospitals in New Jersey. I don't see why only Hudson County had entries. Tinton5 (talk) 02:15, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Category:Hospitals in Middlesex County, New Jersey now exists, more to come.Djflem (talk) 08:53, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Djflem: I would request that you hold off until we reach a consensus here. RevelationDirect (talk) 10:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. Djflem created the one under discussion and supplied no siblings for 6 years. Springing into action now is too late. Oculi (talk) 11:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment:Wikipedia:NOTDUP clearly states that "it is neither improper nor uncommon to simultaneously have a category, a list, and a navigation template which all cover the same topic. These systems of organizing information are considered to be complementary... (not inappropriately duplicative. Furthermore, arguing that a category duplicates a list (or vice versa) at a deletion discussion is not a valid reason for deletion and should be avoided".) In other words, the suggestion to clean up and organize the list is great, but not a reason to delete categories.Djflem (talk) 14:58, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose Deleting/Listifying Category:Slovenian Hockey Hall of Fame inductees
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD and WP:OCASSOC)
A large majority of the biography articles in this category don't mention the Slovenian Hockey Hall of Fame at all, the rest mention it in passing with other awards. While this is not officially an Olympic hall of fame, it sure looks like on in practice: 28 of the 33 articles are in some combination of Category:Olympic ice hockey players of Yugoslavia, Category:Olympic ice hockey players of Slovenia and Category:Olympic officials. (The other 5 are in Category:HDD Olimpija Ljubljana players.) While being in the Olympics is certainly defining for athletes, getting an award later for that same participation is not. The contents of the category are already listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:02, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose Deleting/Listifying Category:National High School Hall of Fame inductees
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD and WP:OCASSOC)
The American National High School Hall of Fame primarily recognizes high school athletes, but also high school coaches. Not a single one of these athletes have a Wikipedia article because of their high school career; rather these athletes became notable later because of success in college, Olympic or professional sports. Since their high school athletic career was not defining, it's hard to imagine an award they received for it is. (The high school coaches generally are notable as high school coaches but are already well categorized under Category:High school athletic coaches in the United States.) The contents of the category are already listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:02, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
