Category:World Heritage Tentative List by Bosnia and Herzegovina

The result of the discussion was: no consensus to delete, so rename to Category:World Heritage Tentative List for Bosnia and Herzegovina. – Fayenatic London 09:44, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category appears to have been created by a non-native speaker of English, and "...by Bosnia and Herzegovina" is clearly not correct. According to Wikipedia:Category names#State-based topics, it seems that it should be "...of Bosnia and Herzegovina", but "...in Bosnia and Herzegovina" is also a possibility. Richard3120 (talk) 15:01, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@DexDor: @Marcocapelle: by the same argument, do you think the category below regarding Colombia should go as well? Richard3120 (talk) 23:36, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
