Category:Hello Girls

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. A rename nomination might find consensus. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 19:20, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete and recategorize; this is supposed to be a category for what is known as "Hello Girls" who were switchboard operators but also has women who seemingly had nothing to do with it - not sure how it helps with navigation. Biographical articles should be diverted to Category:Switchboard operators and Category:Telegraphists where appropriate. Omnis Scientia (talk) 16:10, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure). –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 10:59, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
more categories nominated
Nominator's rationale: merge, up to 1800 these are mostly one-article categories, unhelpful for navigation. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:50, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge - Although my gut feeling was to keep, having so many categories with only one or two articles in seems overkill. In most cases, I don't see there being much impact from merging these categories as proposed. Gazamp (talk) 14:21, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Russian military personnel of the war in Donbas

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: just purge. Consensus to do something; no consensus as to which action to take, so this WP:BARTENDER is going with the least change option. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 19:04, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is a subcategory of Category:Pro-Russian people of the war in Donbas and has a subcategory Category:Pro-Russian military personnel killed in the war in Donbas. The War in Donbas involved Russian separatist forces in Ukraine who were not all part of the Russian military.
An alternative would be to change Category:Pro-Russian military personnel killed in the war in Donbas to Category:Russian military personnel killed in the war in Donbas as proposed as a speedy nomination.

Biota by biogeographic realm

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: keep Category:Flora of the Antarctic, Category:Tropical Atlantic flora, Category:Tropical Eastern Pacific flora, and Category:Western Indo-Pacific flora. Rename the rest as nominated. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 19:06, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Consistency with all other biota categories. In fact, one of the nominated categories was an exact duplicate. I'm not sure if the ocean-based ones should be suffixed with realm, as their parent categories are not. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 13:38, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I would also oppose the three names Category:Flora of the Tropical Atlantic, Category:Flora of the Tropical Eastern Pacific and Category:Flora of the Western Indo-Pacific as being confusing with existing well-defined WGSRPD categories such as Category:Flora of the Pacific and Category:Flora of tropical Asia and their subcategories.

Category:Hexactinosa

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure). –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 11:00, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: According to WoRMS, and as described at Hexactinellida, Hexactinosa is no longer in use; it is polyphyletic, and its former members have been split between Sceptrulophora and Dactylocalycidae. jlwoodwa (talk) 21:00, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 19:20, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is a non-"defining" trait. All articles I checked in the category do not even mention this feature, nevertheless in such a way that "defines" the game or would warrant inclusion in the lede. No change in the five years since the last discussion. Games like Audiosurf and Musika are covered by the (strangely titled) Category:Music generated games and do not need this custom soundtrack category. czar 19:42, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 11:04, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Underpopulated stub category, not approved by WikiProject stub sorting. As always, stub categories are not free for just any user to create on a whim for just any topic of their choosing -- a stub category requires at least 60 articles in it before it can be created, so its creation has to be authorized by the WikiProject in order to ensure that there are actually enough articles to justify it. But this didn't go through the proper process, and was created solely to parent the Maghrebian people stubs category that has been listed below for similar reasons.
The template is completely unused, further, and there's no prospect of finding 60 articles for it -- virtually any possible use of this template would already be tagged with country-specific stub tags as it is, without needing this alongside that. Bearcat (talk) 16:21, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge/delete as nominated. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 19:17, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Very few disasters by year. Merge up for better navigation. WP:NARROW.
Note: OPEC siege (1975 article) is already in Category:1975 murders in Austria and Category:Terrorist incidents in Europe in 1975. The 2020 and 2021 categories only contain COVID-19 pandemic in Austria and do not need to be merged to C:Y disasters in Europe. –Aidan721 (talk) 14:42, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Rename
At speedy, User:LIrala proposed option A but I would rather go for option B. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:23, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • I was going to say "either", but on further reflection, option A makes more sense, since the events themselves can't really be gay, transgender, or intersex. The events (as "things") have no sex, i.e. gender, sexual identity (though it's theoretically possible for them to include "sex"). The wording of things in this field is so susceptible to misinterpretation that clarity seems indispensable in category titles. It would probably be better to rename all of the categories to match option 'A' than to increase the potential for confusion by giving another category an awkward name, just because similar categories have equally awkward names.

Nominator's rationale: WP:OCASSOC, WP:SHAREDNAME, & WP:NONDEFINING
Preston Brook really had nothing to do with these 3 towns other than them being later named in his honor. While it's astonishing that communities are still named after him, it's not defining. The biography article mentions the 3 towns, and the town articles mention him, should any reader be interested in this naming topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 03:01, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Contains only a navbox, whose only contents are companies. Abandoned by its creator, and initially had itself as a subcategory. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 02:37, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Nothing about these categories is "by year". Completely redundant categories that are not needed. –Aidan721 (talk) 01:28, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Merge/delete per nom. Omnis Scientia (talk) 12:33, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
An Alternate suggestion would be to rename as "Seasons in X" rather than "X per Year", since that is what essentially end up being categorized, rather than per initially intentioned names. Respublik (talk) 07:35, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see how that would be a reasonable solution. None of these articles are about seasons. It's just a collection of competitions. There is already Category:Baseball by year to which the articles are categorized. –Aidan721 (talk) 16:30, 18 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If you examine what is [deep]categorized, you will notice that all the articles are competition seasons, with the competitions being double included in the subcats only as title anchors. The categories themselves are just named as competitions avoiding additional sublevel. Respublik (talk) 07:00, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
