1st millennium in Guatemala

Nominator's rationale: Follow up of Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2025_March_9#Early_establishments_in_Guatemala. The modern-day territory of Guatemala was part of the Maya civilization in this period. –Aidan721 (talk) 22:18, 23 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes it was, but the categories are useful for investigating the history of the territory now covered by Guatemala, without getting lost in a maze of categories and articles that are not directly relevant. I therefore oppose. Modern territorial boundaries are often used for historical study. Simon Burchell (talk) 15:07, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:25, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • oppose. Modern territorial boundaries are often used for historical study, like Simon Burchell said. This "simplification" removes the direct link from the current geographic unit to what happened there in the past. The history of a country is shaped by what happened before it was established just as much as by what happened after it was established. Fram (talk) 11:51, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Fictional events

Nominator's rationale: these are events in the very vague meaning of "anything that happened in history". This is follow-up on this earlier discussion. The article History of Arda can be added to Category:Middle-earth history after renaming. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:02, 23 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: A unilateral merger of two distinct and well-defined categories: Category:Science fiction detectives and Category:Fantasy detectives (disclosure: my creations). Clarityfiend (talk) 20:38, 23 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep this page instead as a parent category to Category:Fantasy detectives, Category:Science fiction detectives, Category:Fictional paranormal investigators, and Category:Superhero detectives. AHI-3000 (talk) 20:41, 23 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. It used to apply to Tybira, which was removed from this category somehow. I'd argue that Tibyra is known entirely because of sodomy condemnation and then contemporarily being reclaimed as a queer (homo/trans) icon. So this category is useful for the 'questioning' period of time that scholars are still speculating what sexuality suits them best. Sappho, for instance, would certainly be considered WlW, yet some still question if these sapphist relations were merely falsified 'mockery' (story) or history. The same can be said to a lot of them. People in general, including scholars, may interpret these labels as degrading. On the other hand, much research has confirmation bias, post-truths, or logical leaps, things that are avoided in STEM sciences. Foucault denominated this phenomenon anachronistical. Vivb1 (talk) 08:56, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As someone who was involved in the first two discussions, most potential issues with this category have already been addressed. I do not believe that this conversation is any different than the ones already had. I have no problems with the category in its current form because it is written to specify where it does and does not apply. The category isn't any less valuable to well sourced articles just because of the slim chance it could be misused. Also, if this category referencing a historical figure's sexuality is "non-defining" then shouldn't that apply to all LGBTQ categories? Either all of these categories are relevant to understanding a person's identity, or none of them are. Rylee Amelia (talk) 22:50, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Poems by country of setting

Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer, this is the only content of the target. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:25, 23 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle That suggestion is completely illogical. I would strongly oppose that as Category:Poems by setting is not and never will be a subcategory of Category:Works by country of setting.4meter4 (talk) 01:29, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Lists of events lists

Nominator's rationale: these are events in the very vague meaning of "anything that happened in history". This is follow-up on this earlier discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:04, 23 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Category:Lists of events lists holds lists of lists of events: containers of containers. The lists in the lists of events itemize events. Many of these events are not notable, and have no article. Thus Lists of murders contains List of journalists killed in Guatemala, which has many entries for killings that are not notable in the Wikipedia sense. It is not a list of historical events even if we assume that all events recorded in Wikipedia are historical. Aymatth2 (talk) 14:11, 30 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:40, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Strains of copycat crimes can be defining (and is for Christchurch and Columbine, which have had academic works written about them in connection with the attacks they inspired), but there has not been a single actually confirmed or generally agreed upon Isla Vista copycat attack and the phenomenon is not really discussed as it does not exist. The Toronto van attack tie to Isla Vista was later revealed to be a lie the perp of that made up for attention and the connection to the others is not established, and is not even mentioned in some of these articles - the perp merely being an incel who mentioned him does not a copycat make.

Category:1st house of Courtenay

Nominator's rationale: Merge per nom. Being honest, I can't tell the distinction between the "1st" and the "House of Courtenay". As far as I can tell, its the same family/relation. Omnis Scientia (talk) 20:32, 8 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People associated with GLAAD

Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization by association. The people categorized here were not all associated with GLAAD in the same way -- some were presidents, some were staffers, some were board members -- so they cannot simply be generically categorized as "associated with".

Category:Bolshevik Regional Forces During The Russian Civil War

Nominator's rationale: Not sure what the purpose of this category is supposed to be. It appears to be a collection of republics, which are already well categorized, rather than a collection of "Regional Forces." Gjs238 (talk) 12:46, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The category was originally meant to be a collection of soviet republics and regional forces that existed during the russian civil and acted under the bolsheviks. The list came from a previous version of the russian civil war article which at present does not list these republics, instead listing them under "Regional forces". I tried adding the category as a link in the infobox but ran into problems. In my opinion, the category still has use since it directly links several soviet republics with little documentation outside of their own articles and esspecialy within the russian civil article which makes little mention of them.

Category:Tyla (South African singer)

Nominator's rationale: I was going to submit a speedy rename request per C2D before realizing that this was requested 5 months ago but was opposed at Category talk:Tyla (South African singer) on the grounds of "Tyla" being too ambiguous. I disagree with this assertion because the main subject article has no disambiguation required and there is nothing at the non-existent Tyla cat. Considering no formal CfD was initiated from that original discussion, I am starting this now. People looking for a cat about Tyla would not be surprised to find articles only for the singer mononymously known as Tyla. Trailblazer101 (talk) 03:36, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support, all I can say is that I was the one who requested the move/rename 5 months ago. dxneo (talk) 04:03, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, too ambiguous. After renaming, people may well add articles of other Tylas to this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:57, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Even when Tyla is the primary topic of the singer predominantly known by this name? That's why Tyla (disambiguation) exists, and if any other Tylas from that DAB warranted a cat of their own, I'm pretty sure they would be properly disambiguated. That logic just does not add up to me. Trailblazer101 (talk) 05:08, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • People can add articles to categories without looking at the main article or even without looking at the category page, so disambiguators are more important for categories than for articles. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:23, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      I suppose, but reasonably, most editors would likely do their due diligence first. We cannot and should not preemptively take inaction just because some people could assume something that is incorrect. I find it hard to believe someone would genuinely want to add this cat thinking it would be for anyone with this name. Trailblazer101 (talk) 22:54, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      Saying people might add other articles to the cat is not really valid reason, because there are lots of Chris Browns and we do not see that happening. Beside, we will keep our eyes on the cat to make sure that simple mistake does not happen. dxneo (talk) 23:22, 22 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

700s–990s in Japan

more nominations
Nominator's rationale: Not useful for navigation through at least the end of the 10th century. WP:NARROW/WP:OCYEAR. Manually merge to the decade parent as many of the articles may already be in subcategories of that category. –Aidan721 (talk) 16:38, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per nom and WP:G4. After merging it will become much easier between the articles of the century. Within a decade there is very little to navigate to. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:11, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Disagree. Time categories like years are inherent categories. One knows what the categories will be even if they "don't exist" yet (i.e. don't have an included Wikipedia article--yet). The answer in this and other cases of (for now) "underpopulated" years is to always include a good breadcrumb template at the top of the category to easily move to the next or previous year in the category. This provides not only simpler navigation but more precise categorization. If people who insist on "ease of navigation" through years really want to help out, I suggest a discussion on assigning an all-purpose standardized year navigation template, expected in any year category, that would have a robust skip-gap feature that seamlessly incorporates years as they are added to the category. Doprendek (talk) 15:43, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • There is no such thing as inherent categories, we create categories upon need. In ancient periods there is no need for years, in even more ancient periods there is no need for decades. The chance that someone interested in the ancient history of Japan is only interested in the 950s is very close to zero. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:20, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
