The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 06:53, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Wakefield, Massachusetts has too few people to support a location category per precedent at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2018 December 17#Category:Wikipedians in Mount Juliet, Tennessee. Adding "or associated with" to the category title makes it even less useful for collaboration. A merge to the parent category is not necessary since the sole user is already in that category. * Pppery * it has begun... 16:54, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename all. bibliomaniac15 23:22, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Rename to Category:Hoards from Roman Britain. These hoards aren't in Roman Britain, since Roman Britain no longer exists, but they originate from Roman Britain. The articles are not about the hoards in Roman times, but what they are now. -- 64.229.90.53 (talk) 15:58, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support the specific suggestion above of P Aculeius. And also watching this, as I'll create 'Medieval' and 'Post-Medieval' hoards categories in whatever nomenclature is decided.Zakhx150 (talk) 12:51, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. bibliomaniac15 23:22, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Delete Unlike the often-confused-for Category:Dual-listed companies, which holds articles on companies with a rare, and defining, corporate structure, this recently created category is WP:NOTDEFINING for any of the companies currently within it, and of course is missing many thousands of companies for which this category applies.

The result of the discussion was: split between Category:People of the Siamese revolution of 1932 and Category:People's Party (Thailand) politicians. bibliomaniac15 23:23, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The main article was renamed to People's Party (Thailand) in December 2020. This would be C2D to Category:People's Party (Thailand) politicians, but I'm suggesting renaming to Category:Members of the People's Party (Thailand) instead, as some of the members of the group, which wasn't an actual political party and is best known for instigating the Siamese revolution of 1932, did not enter politics. Paul_012 (talk) 04:17, 6 November 2021 (UTC), updated 05:23, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose while matching the main article title is of course fine, we do not have "Members of . . " political party categories for a reason: if the person is not a politician, it is likely that their party membership is WP:NOTDEFINING. The correct choice is the aforementioned Category:People's Party (Thailand) politicians and any non-politicians should be removed from the category. UnitedStatesian (talk) 04:28, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Despite its often-used English name, the People's Party was an ad-hoc group and was never registered as a political party (this would have been impossible, as the legal framework for political parties didn't exist in the country at the time). Its Thai name, Khana Ratsadon, doesn't use the word for party. It is primarily known for instigating the Siamese revolution/coup of 1932, and only later did it become seen as a de facto political party. It wouldn't be right to exclude non-politicians who were involved in the revolution, as that is the most defining aspect of the group. --Paul_012 (talk) 05:06, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: split per above discussion. bibliomaniac15 23:24, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Redundant to Category:Khana Ratsadon politicians, as the coup/revolution was entirely instigated by the group, and the entirety of the group were involved in it. Paul_012 (talk) 04:11, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Recently created and now redundant to Category:Military coups in Thailand, which has now been purged so that failed attempts are separated into the (also recently created) Category:Failed coups in Thailand (itself nominated for speedy renaming).

Show business and sports families

[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 without objection to a short term renomination of these categories, but in smaller batches. I will leave the CfD tags on the category pages for a few days in case User:Mike Selinker finds it easier to re-use them. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 07:23, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Standardizing to style of most Category:Show business families and Category:Sports families categories. There is no other Alvarado, Baldwin, Gibb, Starr, Sumner, or Swan family] with a category. There is a Category:Matthews family (UK), so Matthews needs the disambiguator per Category:Long family (American football); similarly the Earles, Harrisons, Harts, and Johnsons. Belle Starr and Pearl Starr are in Category:Hatfield family, so don't need a Starr category. The Stewarts and Youngs' businesses are less uniform, so I just went with location.--Mike Selinker (talk) 01:37, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Same with Alvarado wrestling family and Category:Alvarado wrestling family - they should not be moved, but should instead match the parent article. I am also concerned about the proposed move of Category:Family of Rod Stewart to Category:Stewart family (UK) because there are multiple Stewart families in the UK... GiantSnowman 08:06, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Grutness: except categories should match the article name, see WP:C2D. GiantSnowman 12:38, 6 November 2021 (UTC),[reply]
Exactly. We're currently in a quandary, with trying to get categories to match article names and also match a category tree. Since that can't be reconciled without (a) moving a handful of articles and categories to match the current usual format, or (b) moving hundreds of articles and categories to match a different format, it would make sense to move the handful. And given that there doesn't seem to be any reason in terms of common usage why one article title is naturally the "right" one, so it's hardly going to cause a major problem to make them conform to the others. Grutness...wha? 12:58, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Historical inaccuracies in film

[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: delete. bibliomaniac15 23:22, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Historical inaccuracies in film are so common that I don't see this being a defining category. All things being equal I'd say we could perhaps limit it to films that received significant attention for their inaccuracies, but I don't know how we could define 'significant' in this case, as there's plenty of sources that will cover even relatively minor inaccuracies. Which in turn begs the question of when a historical inaccuracy becomes noteworthy. DonIago (talk) 01:14, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
