Category:Art museums and galleries in the United States

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/rename all. bibliomaniac15 04:58, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Inconsistent tree scheme when compared to Category:Art museums and galleries. Both Category:Art museums and Category:Art galleries redirect to Category:Art museums and galleries. Previous discussions resulted in this precedent. –Aidan721 (talk) 20:20, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Shia Muslim scholars

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 to option A, Category:Shia scholars of Islam. – Fayenatic London 16:12, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename to avoid the misunderstanding that this might be for Muslim people who are scholars of in any kind of subject like chemistry or linguistics. It is intended for scholars in Islam only.

  • Category:Shia Muslim scholars to Category:Shia Muslim Islamic scholars, C2D per List of Shia Muslim Islamic scholars. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:54, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oppose speedy. Moved without discussion less than a month ago, so C2D does not apply. Also, Muslim and Islamic is uselessly redundant. Place Clichy (talk) 14:03, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oppose speedy I agree Muslim and Islamic are not both necessary, because Islamic covers the fact that they are Muslim, however I would support renaming to 'Shia Islamic Scholars' as Muslim scholars includes both Muslims who have studied secular courses and Ulama, whereas Islamic scholars refers to Ulama.

Category:Han dynasty people related to the Three Kingdoms

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 all. – Fayenatic London 14:04, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose renaming Category:Han dynasty eunuchs related to the Three Kingdoms to Category:Eunuchs during the end of the Han dynasty - added on relisting
  • Propose renaming Category:Han dynasty imperials related to the Three Kingdoms to Category:Imperials during the end of the Han dynasty - added on relisting
Nominator's rationale: rename, the current category name is entirely unclear. The Three Kingdoms proper start in 220 after the formal fall of the Han dynasty. Historians sometimes also include the last decenniums of the Han dynasty in the "period of the Three Kingdoms" concept because the Han dynasty did not have much power in its end phase and China suffered from local warlords in that period too. That being said, "related to the Three Kingdoms" suggests related to those three states (emerging in 220), not to a period. People during the end of the Han dynasty is more simple and more accurate.

Added to the nomination at a later date

Nominator's rationale: Per a similar recent example, we don't cat people based on where they died. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 15:06, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: if you’re doing that Category, then you could include Category:Deaths in Baghdad and Category:Deaths in Greater London too. Thepharoah17 (talk) 15:43, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
and Category:Deaths in Damascus Thepharoah17 (talk) 15:49, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that. Obviously I also support deletion of those tagged categories. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 06:28, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

you see LOL? Each time people look at it, they can take a different view on it. It's been brought up before here, I appreciate I kinda went against your advice there – which was that Segunda B and Segunda RFEF were a continuation – and made a new season cat tree, but the reason was that the existing Category:Segunda División B had Category:Third level football leagues in Europe which is no longer the case going forward (it has since been removed, nothing to do with me that one, will need to get looked at as part of this) so do we instead re-name that and have both 'third level' and 'fourth level' in its descriptive cats? If we continue that pattern, Tercera Division in its three eras will require 'third level', 'fourth level' and 'fifth level' for its overview. I'm not saying that shouldn't happen, but just something to take into consideration looking at the reorganisation overall and what we want the divisions to show. On a related note (although maybe this isn't the place – can just move it all to the FOOTBALL project page I suppose), why do we have separate player categories for all the Spanish divisions and also, for example, Category:Footballers in Germany by competition including 1. and 2. Bundesliga seprately, but English and Scottish football up to the 1990s is simply Football League/Scottish Football League players? A big task to split them up and probably unnecessary, but then why do we have them for different countries? I know for a fact that La Liga and Segunda Division in Spain are under the same umbrella, with lower levels under a different body, and pretty certain that is the same for Germany with the top two tiers (the 3rd seems to be separate). Shouldn't they all be under a common category? Crowsus (talk) 12:23, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Marcocapelle: see Talk:Tercera División RFEF#Requested move 8 July 2021, which saw the old article about Tercera División moved to Tercera División RFEF. For some reason, rather than undoing the move and creating a new article about the new Tercera División RFEF, @BrazilianDude70: has simply created a new article about the old Tercera División. So the 'Tercera División' history is actually currently at Tercera División RFEF; this needs sorting by somebody not INVOLVED. GiantSnowman 18:15, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
