The result of the discussion was: merge. bibliomaniac15 22:05, 5 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: These categories are non-defining intersections of their various genres and Category:Open-source video games. Each should be upmerged as appropriate. Izno (talk) 21:52, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This category is a trivial intersection of Category:Open-source video games and long-time deleted Category:3D video games. Upmerge to the parent and delete. Izno (talk) 21:38, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete Timrollpickering (talk) 09:29, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Similar to this related discussion for video game sequel by year categories, prequel/sequel films by year is an odd and unnecessary cross-categorization with a limited scope makes for a tree of mostly WP:SMALLCAT failures. IceWelder [✉] 21:03, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • The year categories are recent but not sure what you mean by "refusal to discussion"; there is no mention of "sequel" on their talk page. The decade categories were created a few years ago by other editors. Peter James (talk) 13:52, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete Timrollpickering (talk) 09:29, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:SMALLCAT, only two articles in this category. There is no need to merge to the parent categories, because the articles are already in a denominational subcategory of Category:Cathedrals in India and they are also in Category:Churches in Kolkata.

The result of the discussion was: Rename all Timrollpickering (talk) 09:33, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006_August_6#Newspapers_by_country renamed Category:Austrian newspapers to Category:Newspapers published in Austria (see its exemplary rationale). Moreover these are all subcats of eg Category:Mass media in Austria, which was likewise renamed to use 'in' via Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2016_February_10#Media_by_country. A similar rename for magazines was endorsed via Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2020_May_15#Magazines_by_country.
Further, Fooian television was renamed to 'Television in foo' in 2008: Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2008_December_10#Category:Norwegian_television. Oculi (talk) 11:06, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Associations

[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: disperse/merge Timrollpickering (talk) 12:45, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose dispersing Category:Associations:
move Category:Professional associations to Category:Non-profit organizations by type
move other subcategories to Category:Non-profit organizations by subject
disperse the handful of articles between Category:Non-profit organizations and Category:Non-profit organizations by subject
Nominator's rationale: in the the previous discussion, there was sort of consensus that Category:Associations is merely a matter of WP:SHAREDNAME, but nothing happened yet because there is a whole set of subcategories that needs to be addressed simultaneously. So here is the full proposal, basically to merge everything to Non-profit organizations.
@Jfhutson, RevelationDirect, Rathfelder, and Bibliomaniac15: pinging contributors to previous discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:37, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Like Peterkingiron I dont much like non-profit as a basis for categories. I recall discussions about Non-government organizations, which we decided should go because it was so difficult to define as a negative. I'd be perfectly happy with the professional associations, which is the main content, sitting directly in the categories of organizations based in Foo. Rathfelder (talk) 22:11, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think we will need a different approach in countries where Non-profit organization is a verifiable legal status from those where it is just a negative description. Rathfelder (talk) 09:32, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • After some hesitation I think I will agree with a future merge nomination of non-profit organizations. After all, it contains almost all sorts of organizations but companies. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:14, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose Deleting Category:Nation's Little Sisters
  • Propose Deleting Category:Nation's Little Brothers
Nominator's rationale: Non-defining characteristic. Per the article, these are informal titles that refer to "a young female [or male] celebrity in her [or his] late teens to early twenties... [who is] cute, bright, and innocent." ƏXPLICIT 02:57, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose Deleting/Listifying Category:AAA Hall of Fame
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD and WP:OCASSOC)
The AAA Hall of Fame was founded in 2007 and recognizes professional wrestlers in Mexico, where there is a distinct style. The biography articles in this category generally mention the award in passing, often with other awards, so it doesn't seem defining. The contents of the category are already listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:39, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
*RFC There is an open request for comments on proposed changes to WP:OCAWARD. Your input (pro/con/other) is always welcome here. -RD

  • Propose Deleting/Listifying Category:German Ice Hockey Hall of Fame inductees
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD and WP:OCASSOC)
The German Ice Hockey Hall of Fame was founded in 1988 and mentions to in on the web are mostly Wikipedia and mirror sites. The biography articles in this category generally are split between not mentioning the the award at all or mentioning it in passing with other halls of fame so it doesn't seem defining. (A few do mention it in intro but that appears to be due to one enthusiastic editor.) The contents of the category are already listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:39, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
