Category:Survival horror films (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete This is a category of a genre I have never heard applied to films. There is no definition of the genre in the category, there is no article for it, and browsing through google only related Survival horror to video games. Not films. I propose we delete this category.

Propose renaming Category:Destruction to ?
Nominator's rationale: Rename or Delete or clarify the introduction or split. Not sure if this is the correct name or if a better introduction would help. Deletion is a valid alternative. The current introduction states This category deals with the partial or total annihilation of entities. I'm not sure that is clear and objective. In any case from looking at the contents, what do road debris, paper shredder, shelf life, weapons‎, wear and tear and lost works‎ have defining in common?

Category:Free public outdoor meals (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Two entries. One entry is a person and I don't think he would want to be considered as a free public outdoor meal, and the the other can possibly be added to Category:Free meals. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 18:48, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problem at all. Please go ahead and rename it. BPositive (talk) 13:27, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete. Timrollpickering (talk) 14:26, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming Category:Wikipedians by Clan: Clan Elliot to Category:To be determined by consensus
Nominator's rationale: This user category tries to encompass a category hierarchy in its name, a practice which is deprecated by WP:NCCAT: Don't write the category structure in names. Example: "Monarchs", not "People - Monarchs".A search reveals no other Wikipedians-by-clan categories, and while the simplest naming format would be Category:Clan Elliot Wikipedians, the convention of Category:Wikipedians is for "Wikipedian(s)" to be first word in the title. Any suggestions? BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs)12:56, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
PS I have just spotted that Category:Wikipedians has other sub-cats which encompass a category hierarchy in their name (see e.g. the subcats of Category:Wikipedians by alma mater. Is there a consensus for following that format here? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs)13:09, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Category:RPOTD articles (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: This is a userspace category for Presidentman (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). Do we still permit categories for individual editors to organise their subpages? (I seem to recall lots of them being deleted). --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:12, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Dorchester, New Brunswick

[edit]

The result of the discussion was: Delete. The Bushranger One ping only 03:41, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Category:Dorchester, New Brunswick (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete per WP:SMALLCAT. With a population of 1,167, I don't believe this village has the potential for growth to merit an eponymous category. I also don't believe there's any exception to WP:OC for settlements. Based on what I've seen in Category:Villages in Canada, this does seem to be OCAT: there is but one other eponymous village category, Category:Stirling, Alberta, and it is a populated place that is a National Historic Site of Canada, along with Quebec City and Louisbourg, and does not offer a precedent for the nominated category.
