The result of the discussion was: Rename. Dana boomer (talk) 01:07, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming Category:Modern American anti-submarine rockets and missiles to Category:Anti-submarine rockets and missiles of the United States
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Establishing "X of Y" naming which is standard and is used by the only other existing subcat of Category:Anti-submarine rockets and missiles. Also, "Modern" qualifier creates a rather small category with little chance for expansion and nebulous inclusion criteria (what is "modern"?). Should be for all American ASW rockets/missiles, and this would make it so. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:56, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Shot blasting to Category:Abrasive blasting
Nominator's rationale: To move the category name to the same as the article name (Abrasive blasting). This name is also more inclusive. Also see User_talk:Andy_Dingley#category:shot_blasting. Wizard191 (talk) 19:24, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Procedural close. Nominator agreed to withdraw so that category could be emptied and tagged for C1. Non-admin closure. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 21:11, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Category:Chikayo Fukuda albums (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Article for artist doesn't exist. The album is a small section in an article for a video game series. Categorization by artist here is unnecessary. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 18:52, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If no objection, I will withdraw my nomination to allow for speedy deletion. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 21:05, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Sunday Best albums to Category:Sunday Best (music company) albums
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Suggest matching to article Sunday Best (music company). Sunday Best can also refer to a TV programme (or a song), so confusion is possible. Good Ol’factory (talk) 15:13, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Mr. Bear Records, reissued on Spigot Records albums (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete. I'm reasonably sure we don't want or need a category for albums that were originally released on Mr. Bear Records but then reissued on Spigot Records. I would suggest breaking this into two categories, but do not have articles for Mr. Bear Records or Spigot Records. Good Ol’factory (talk) 14:36, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Merge. Dana boomer (talk) 01:07, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Propose merging Category:Bootsy's Rubber Band albums to Category:Bootsy Collins albums
Nominator's rationale: Merge. There's a large amount of duplication here. Bootsy's Rubber Band redirects to Bootsy Collins, so I just suggest we keep the older target category. Good Ol’factory (talk) 10:19, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete. Dana boomer (talk) 01:07, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Category:Happy Face albums (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete. The records label is actually "Happy Face Records, but on WP that just redirects to Diamond Head (band), which set up their own label. My understanding is that if the label doesn't have a WP article, we don't categorize albums by that label. If kept, it needs to be Category:Happy Face Records albums. Good Ol’factory (talk) 10:07, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Can we get clarification on that? User:Rich Farmbrough created a ton of these albums by record label categories, and many of the labels don't have articles. I started removing them out of process because of that, and then I agreed to go through some of the ones created because I kept finding errors. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 19:08, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I'm not 100% sure if it's been settled this way in the past, which is why I have brought it here. I know we routinely delete categories for albums by redlinked producers, so it would be consistent to do so with redlinked labels. I agree with that approach, at least. If it's not notable enough to have an article I don't see why we would want a category for it. Good Ol’factory (talk) 01:17, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – I would distinguish between producers/labels/songwriters who have no article but could/should have one, and those for whom an article would be wholly excessive, and this seems to be the case here. Occuli (talk) 11:47, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Geologic provinces of California

[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: No consensus; only one comment asking for more information after two weeks.. Dana boomer (talk) 01:07, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming Category:Geologic provinces of California to Category:Geomorphic provinces of California
Nominator's rationale: Rename. The introduction points to Geography of California as the source of information. That article claims there are 11 and not 12 provinces as stated in the category and that they are geomorphic provinces. In any case neither of of those numbers seems to be mappable to the contents of this category. So while this is proposed as a rename, I suspect that some cleanup is called for here. A delete is also a possibility since I suspect that the current contents are not appropriate for inclusion since their reason for inclusion here is not mentioned in the articles.

  • Comment, perhaps needs editors' clarifications/consensus on whether cat. is for Geologic province focused articles, or broader Geomorphology inclusiveness with additional factors. If USGS/geology criteria is used perhaps current name is more accurate? Are other factors already in Cat:Landforms, Cat:Drainage Basins, etc? Not my expertise area, and will listen now. — Look2See1 t a l k → 20:56, 23 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Ely to Category:Ely, Cambridgeshire
Propose renaming Category:People from Ely to Category:People from Ely, Cambridgeshire

The result of the discussion was: Rename all.
