Category:Indian subsidiaries of foreign multinational companies

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: Rename. Timrollpickering 22:20, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: To make the naming consistent with other subcategories under Category:Multinational companies. Mar4d (talk) 20:01, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename If the company has a subdivision in India and is based in another country, it is by definition multi-national, at least as most use the term. Even if a company based in Pakistan with an Indian sub-division and no other operations outside of Pakistan would not be multi-national, it just does not seem worth subdividing in such a way that we would exclude such from this category.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:19, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename to the alternative target Category:Theatre-owning companies. Moving to the first-mentioned target would have implied a merge to an existing biographies category, that seems not to have been the intention of this discussion. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 03:52, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Crisis in Venezuela (2012–present) is the main article. Charles Essie (talk) 17:18, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle: The problem is that in Spanish the article was renamed, while in the English Wikipedia a new article was created, so I think the solution would be to move any remaining content and delete the article. Any thoughts? --Jamez42 (talk) 21:46, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support merging There may be a few divisions of comapnies that might not quite be multi-national by all definitions, but I see nothing gained by making such distinctions, and I am not sure there would be an agreed upon way to make such distinctions.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:23, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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. (Note: it now contains 4 articles.) – Fayenatic London 14:51, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:NARROWCAT - unclear there is any room for growth here. —swpbT 14:56, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment -- The one article is reasonably well categorised, but deletion would remove it from the Category:Defunct socialist parties tree, where all articles are diffused by country. The immediate parent is a "by country" category, where the article would be out of place. Its parent is a container for country and continent subcats. Is the solution to delete the continent branch as adding little, and merge "by country" and this article there? Peterkingiron (talk) 15:55, 2 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. – Fayenatic London 14:55, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT —swpbT 13:30, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. SMALLCAT specifically states that it does not apply to situations where a category has an accepted overall scheme of subcategorization, such as a large international umbrella category having its contents diffused by country — because Category:Coming-of-age films by country exists, any country is allowed to have one of these as soon as there's at least one article to be filed in it, and since it's a very common genre of film there is a feasible prospect of expansion.
