The result of the discussion was: Delete. Ricky81682 (talk) 19:46, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Looks like a subcategory that was missed in a bulk nomination of Category:Music videos by year in 2007. Is there any speedy criteria for this type of thing? StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 18:29, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Historic department store buildings in the United States

[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: Keep. As is, this category fits within the current structure. The arguments for merger relate to the larger question regarding Category:Buildings and structures by former use versus Category:Historic buildings and structures in the United States. Rather than merge a single category and create inconsistency, an RfC on the larger question is appropriate. From there, the child categories can be merged/renamed/re-populated as needed. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 19:33, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Merge. Historic is ambiguous and we generally avoid using it. Upmerge to the category where most of these articles probably existed until moved into this category. Vegaswikian (talk) 17:02, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like the Category:Buildings and structures by former use tree already accomplishes what I'm looking for. (The naming convention between that reused building tree and the buildings that no longer exist tree is blurred though.) RevelationDirect (talk) 05:04, 21 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I will not argue that there is confusion between defunct, former, demolished and so on. The question there is what is the best solution, if any. But that is a different discussion. Vegaswikian (talk) 23:55, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
If we're just looking at this category, I would favor keeping it but renaming it to Category:Former department store buildings in the United States. That continues the confusion with the nonextant bulding tree but that's nothing new.RevelationDirect (talk) 03:05, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. Good Ol’factory (talk) 05:15, 26 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Merge. Another 'related to' category which is inappropriate. Upmerge to parent since the few I checked belong there. Any that do not can be removed after the merge. Vegaswikian (talk) 16:48, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The general format for categories I believe is the full "United States", not U.S. Ricky81682 (talk) 00:57, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
And government isn't generally capitalized. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 01:01, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
