Category:Turtle articles needing attention

[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The result of the discussion was: withdrawn. – Fayenatic London 15:26, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Empty category for long time. Have long since forgotten how things get added to this category, although I created it in 2011 but it doesn't get used anymore. Regards, Sun Creator(talk) 21:35, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 
 |attention          = {{{attention|}}}
 |ATTENTION_CAT     = Turtle articles needing attention

so that if someone adds the parameter "|attention=yes" (in fact, =anything) within the WikiProject Turtles banner on an article talk page, the page will be added to the category. I believe those two lines would have to be removed from the template if the category is deleted. – Fayenatic London 10:42, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Fayenatic london: Okay, excellent. I've removed depreciated parameters including "Turtle articles needing attention" category. Regards, Sun Creator(talk) 13:52, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@SpinnerLaserz: |attention= applies to any class of article, and not just stubs. If a C-class article needs attention, it should not be placed in Category:Stub-Class turtle articles. Even if the catagories were somehow combined, that would be a discussion regarding {{WPBannerMeta}} and does not apply specifically to turtle articles. --Nessie (talk) 17:25, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @NessieVL: The documentation had included the 'attention' parameter for years until I edited it some hours ago in response to a comment above. Thank you for CleanupWorklistBot list that you've used to populate the category. Doesn't the CleanupWorklistBot list make the category redundant? I mean you are using a CleanupWorklistBot list, to then alter talk page templates, to alter a category that itself is unused. If someone really wanted to see what required attention would be better to go straight to the CleanupWorklistBot list and skip the other stages. Regards, Sun Creator(talk) 17:02, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Sun Creator: sounds like you actually want to have a discussion about |attention= at {{WPBannerMeta}}, as none of your arguments apply specifically to {{WikiProject Turtles}}. CWB is great, but is external to Wikipedia, and the rules it uses are not controlled by WPTurtles. Having an on-site category keeps some of that control in-house. --Nessie (talk) 17:25, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:United Kingdom–France proxy conflict

Nominator's rationale: As for Category:United States–Russia proxy conflict which was nominated below, these categories have unclear scope and have been filled using very light criteria beyond any academic consensus. E.g. were added either open conflicts between the two powers (such as the Seven Years' War or the Korean War), or conflicts where involvement of any of the two is very debatable.

  • Keep (except for the United Kingdom–United Kingdom–France proxy conflict) but only they have their own articles We could, however, created an article on the mentioned proxy conflicts (if you take a look at the Yemeni Civil War you can see that both the United States and North Korea had supported the Hadi forces and the Houthi forces respectively) but as for the United Kingdom and France (there is not a lot).

Category:Alumni of Reimann School

The result of the discussion was: convert to disambiguation page. MER-C 09:28, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The Reimann School was an art school founded in Berlin in 1902, re-established in London in 1937 after persecution by the Nazis, which closed at the outbreak of World War II. Alumni of both instances of the school are currently found at Category:Alumni of Reimann School (Berlin) and Category:Alumni of Reimann School (London), themselves part of Alumni by art school in Germany and Alumni by art school in the United Kingdom. The container category is stranded alone at the root of Category:Alumni by university or college in Europe. Do we really need this container category?

Roman Catholic churches by continent

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: option b. (non-admin closure) DannyS712 (talk) 02:37, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
OPTION A
OPTION B
Nominator's rationale: These categories does not contain articles on individual church buildings, but only sub-categories named Roman Catholic churches in the Caribbean etc; all the sub-cats are "churches", "cathedrals" or "parishes and churches". Many other categories were nominated at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2015_May_1#Churches/Church_buildings, with a consensus to use "churches", but the inconsistent one was overlooked in that nomination. Since then, some editors have supported the use of "church buildings" to distinguish the category purpose from church denominations.
Option A was proposed at CFD August 11, to revert an out-or-process move of the North America category in 2015, and to make it consistent with the sub-cats. However, being considered on its own, that was not carried. Note that this category is consistent with its other parent Category:Catholic church buildings in North America and with Category:Eastern Catholic church buildings by continent.
Option B would make the siblings and parent consistent with the North America category and with the smaller hierarchy for Eastern Catholics.
One or the other should be adopted. – Fayenatic London 12:17, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. I'll list these on the manual page in case someone wants to create a list. MER-C 09:30, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: With limited exceptions where there is a historical context for it (e.g. Category:Christian sites of the Roman Empire, Category:Buddhist holy sites), we do not categorize places by religion. There is no reason we should start doing so with World Heritage Sites, as this status is not linked to a particular religious connection.

Nominator's rationale: This category is steeped in subjectivity and/or original research. There is no scholarly consensus that the Afghan, Syrian, and Yemeni civil wars, the Persian Gulf crisis, and the Donbass war are theatres of a supposed U.S.–Russia proxy conflict.
