  • Propose merging Category:Nazis who committed suicide in Berlin to Category:Nazis who committed suicide in Germany
  • Propose merging Category:Nazis who committed suicide in Nuremberg to Category:Nazis who committed suicide in Germany
  • Propose merging Category:Nazis who committed suicide in Flensburg to Category:Nazis who committed suicide in Germany
  • Propose merging Category:Nazis who committed suicide in Lüneburg to Category:Nazis who committed suicide in Germany
Nominator's rationale: Where they committed suicide is not defining. Rathfelder (talk) 22:54, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • WP:OCLOCATION. The death categories are just meant to distinguish by cause of death and they are intersected by country in order to avoid they become too big. Intersecting at city level is certainly not helpful. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:20, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: None of these characters were created for the game. They're just gueststars, which makes it non-defining. ★Trekker (talk) 18:55, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Merge Timrollpickering (talk) 10:01, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Duplicate categories. Article Manikongo starts by: "The Manikongo or Mwene Kongo was the title of the ruler of the Kingdom of Kongo". List of rulers of Kongo is introduced by: "This is a list of the rulers of the Kingdom of Kongo known commonly as the Manikongos". Reverse merge is also an option.

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: Merge Timrollpickering (talk) 10:03, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, in the articles the word "mayor" is used so there is little reason to keep the articles of this category apart from those in Category:Mayors of Moscow. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:18, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • What exactly is the difference, why aren't they mayors? Isn't "Municipal City Head" a perfect description of the function of mayor? Marcocapelle (talk) 19:42, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Debresser: there is a difference: governors-general of Moscow are the heads of the country subdivision Moscow Governorate. In contrast, the articles in this category are the heads of the municipality of Moscow. Btw I agree that the articles are lacking information about it but I am not confident enough about this to purge these articles. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:30, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If that is so, then they should be in a separate section of Mayor of Moscow. But for some reason, only Vadim Rudnev is in that list article, and he is listed as governor-general. Perhaps we need an expert on Moscow history to have a look at this. Debresser (talk) 10:56, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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: delete. – Fayenatic London 09:05, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:OCMISC. The two current country data templates should be moved to a new category for United Nations General Assembly observers. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:29, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe rename it to something like Category:Country data templates of non-state entities or "...of sovereign entities"? That seems more characteristic than the two entities' UN observership. SiBr4 (talk) 21:04, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: It looks like a rename rather than a delete is being discussed. Would like to see some discussion about what target name would be best.

The result of the discussion was: Rename Timrollpickering (talk) 10:04, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Andrew Watt is primarily know as a record producer and his bio page is know known as such. → Lil-℧niquԐ1 - (Talk) - 19:15, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I wondered this too @Carlossuarez46: but I believe categories are matched to the main bio article name where there is one. → Lil-℧niquԐ1 - (Talk) - 20:52, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • If confusion would otherwise result, yes. Where there is no possibility of that, I don't think that's a rule. See the subcategories of Category:Mercury (element), which don't include the parenthetical, but the planet and the god don't have compounds, poisoning, isotopes, or whatever elements tend to have.

Video game series

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: rename. No outstanding opposition has emerged regarding the proposed renames. bibliomaniac15 05:52, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Rename for clarity. These were opposed by Zxcvbnm on the Speedy page because he would only accept renaming to the short titles with no qualifier at all, but the main titles are ambiguous – see F.E.A.R. (disambiguation) and White Knight Chronicles which is only about the first gamein its series. – Fayenatic London 21:31, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Copy of speedy discussion
  • Category:F.E.A.R. (series) to Category:F.E.A.R. – C2D: Main article does not have disambiguation ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:16, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    ZXCVBNM, you already made that nomination back in December, when it was opposed because F.E.A.R. is ambiguous. So now I will oppose speedy because C2D doesn't apply for an ambiguous title. Armbrust The Homunculus 14:28, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    If not moved to proposed title, should at least move to (video game series) as proposals below. "series" is just a meaningless word without the media it's about. --Gonnym (talk) 09:21, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    It is not actually ambiguous, because the main article is called F.E.A.R. and is about the video game. I am simply saying that the category should match the main article.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:26, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @Zxcvbnm: Where a word or phrase has multiple meanings, articles may be named according to WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, but a much higher threshold is required to do that for categories, and it requires a full CFD discussion (for an example, see e.g. Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2016_September_6#Major_US_cities). You cannot use speedy renaming for categories with a name that is in any way ambiguous.
    Please state whether you oppose renaming to Category:F.E.A.R. (video game series), as that could go ahead under C2C if unopposed. Your comments here and in the one below currently imply opposition to that alternative. – Fayenatic London 07:39, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Category:White Knight Chronicles (series) to Category:White Knight Chronicles – C2D: Main article has no disambiguation ZXCVBNM (TALK) 10:47, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    ZXCVBNM Oppose speedy White Knight Chronicles is about the first game and not the series. Armbrust The Homunculus 15:01, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    If not moved to proposed title, should at least move to (video game series) as proposals below. "series" is just a meaningless word without the media it's about. --Gonnym (talk) 09:21, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    The series page, if it existed, would likely not be disambiguated. There is no practical reason to disambiguate as there is nothing conflicting with the title.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:29, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: What makes a music video a YouTube music video that being available on YouTube becomes a defining aspect of the song? Number of views? Exclusivity?

  • Propose Deleting Category:Sturt Football Club Hall of Fame inductees
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCAWARD and WP:OVERLAPCAT
We don't have an article on the Sturt Football Club Hall of Fame , the Sturt Football Club makes no mention of it, and only 8 of the 25 articles in the category even mention it so it's clearly not defining. (In contrast, the Australian Football Hall of Fame, if received, is clearly defining to those players.) If anyone wants to create a list/main article, I listed the current category contents right here so no work is lost. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:50, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose Deleting/Listifying Category:New England Auto Racers Hall of Fame inductees
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD)
The New England Antique Racers vintage car club has about 350-400 members and created the New England Auto Racers Hall of Fame in 1998. The inductees have a variety of racing experiences (demolition derby, NASCAR, Formula One, Indy 500) but all are from or otherwise tied to New England. In the articles, the award is generally mentioned in passing (often with other halls of fame) so it doesn't seem defining. The contents of the category are already listified here within the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:50, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
