Category:Arabic films

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: merge/delete. Practically speaking, Falafel Cart would not fit in the target category, and Theeb is already there, so this is really a deletion. bibliomaniac 1 5 22:01, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Category:Arabic films to Category:Arabic-language films

Nominator's rationale: Arabic is a language, not a locality such as for "Mexican films". We already have a category for the language. Opencooper (talk) 20:35, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Falafel Cart appears from the trailer to be English-language. Is there a category for films set in the Arab world? Should this be renamed to fill that role? The 50-odd categories for Lawrence of Arabia (film) don't include such a category. Johnbod (talk) 21:40, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, Falafel Cart does not fit here, while Theeb is already in Category:Arabic-language films and also in Category:Films set in Jordan, the latter in response to User:Johnbod's comment. Marcocapelle (talk) 02:53, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:IP talk pages for speedy deletion

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. MER-C 18:52, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:IP talk pages for speedy deletion (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: This is a category that should never be used as there is no speedy deletion criteria for IP talk pages. The most relevant discussions seems to be at Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion/Archive 9#IP talk pages from March 2006 and Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2007 February 19#Category:IP talk pages for speedy deletion. The reason that it was kept back then seems to be that it was actually used as a list of pages that should possibly be blanked in the future. Continuing to keep this serves no purpose and can lead to confusion by conflating it with all the proper categories at Category:Speedy deletion. --Trialpears (talk) 18:59, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per nom. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 16:22, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. While I understand the intent behind the nomination, I'll have to oppose it. Categorization as a group helps find other relevant articles, whereas if you lump them into a bigger character category, you'll have to check each link to find what other characters are relevant (in this case, for the 1989 film series). --Gonnym (talk) 08:54, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. For the purpose of diffusing saturated parent categories. --Atvica (talk) 08:55, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Dual merge to Category:Batman (1989 film series) and Category:DC Comics film characters. There are only three articles in the category so WP:SMALLCAT seems valid. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:52, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. bibliomaniac 1 5 22:02, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Academy of Fine Arts, Munich alumni to Category:Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, alumni

Nominator's rationale: Without the second comma, we could believe it is the "Munich alumni" (natives of Munich), instead of the alumni of the academy of Munich. Edelseider (talk) 09:16, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Academy of Fine Arts, Munich faculty to Category:Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, faculty

Nominator's rationale: Without the second comma, we could believe it is the "Munich faculty" (natives of Munich), instead of the faculty of the academy of Munich. Edelseider (talk) 09:16, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. The convention is "Foo" alumni, where "Foo" is the title of the university or college. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 09:25, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe it is a convention worth revisiting? --Edelseider (talk) 09:28, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I hope not, @Edelseider. Variations make it harder for editors to categorise articles. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 09:31, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Procedural note. I have merged two separate nominations, since they raise the same issue. Also, neither category was tagged, so I tagged them. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 09:29, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. There isn't a convention: many of these are at "Alumni of Foo" and "Faculty of Bar", and that would work much better here than messing about with the commas (i.e., Category:Alumni of the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, Category:Faculty of the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich). That said, the nomination is correct, the parenthetical comma for Munich needs to be closed. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 09:59, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Justlettersandnumbers: There is a convention. "Alumni of Foo"/"Academics of Bar" for countries which follow British English usage .... and "Foo Alumni"/"Bar Faculty" for the countries which follow the US English convention. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:43, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@BrownHairedGirl: And does Germany follow British English usage or the US English convention? In fact, it does neither, because it is not an English-speaking country. The convention that you mention appears to be real, but not global. --Edelseider (talk) 11:55, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Edelseider, it would have taken you only a few seconds to look at Category:Alumni by university or college in Germany and see that the convention there is "Foo alumni". --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:07, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@BrownHairedGirl: Indeed, you are right. But this only means that at some point in the past, somebody decided to use US English instead of British English for that country. It could have been the other way round (it would have been more logical, even, to use British English, since both countries are almost neighbo[u]rs, and the current dynasty comes from Hanover...), but it somehow ended up like this. A decision had to be made, and a coin was tossed, et voilà. And now, some people are unhappy (me). But I'll get over it, if nothing changes. Cheers, --Edelseider (talk) 12:15, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Edelseider, feel free to make a group nomination changing all the subcats of Category:Alumni by university or college in Germany to "Alumni of Foo". But move either all or none; keep them consistent. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:36, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - exactly this point was raised relatively recently with an alumni category. Here 2020_March_4#Category:Islamia_College_(Lahore)_alumni and 2019_October_24#Xxx_of_the_University_of_California,_Los_Angeles. The conclusion was to leave things as-is. Oculi (talk) 14:19, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, "alumni of foo" is clearer especially in instances like this, but so far nobody cares enough about the issue to make a group nomination. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:30, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Frankly, I think in instances like this it's being overly pedantic to insist on "Foo alumni" when "Alumni of Foo" would obviously bee much clearer, consistency or not. Personally, I think all these categories should be moved to "Alumni of Foo". It's not in any way an ENGVAR issue (surely nobody is claiming that American English doesn't use this construction?), and it's much better and clearer English. "Faculty"/"Academics" is an ENGVAR issue, but "Faculty of Foo" would still be much clearer and the word order, once again, isn't an ENGVAR issue. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:41, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @Necrothesp, feel free to make a group nomination changing all the subcats of Category:Alumni by university or college in Germany to a new format. But move either all or none; keep them consistent. Inconsistency in sets such as this is a nightmare for both readers and editors.
  (Personally, I agree that the "Foo of Bar" format is clearer. But inconsistency is worse). --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 10:46, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Category:Pokémon fangames to Category:Fangames

Nominator's rationale: No need for such a small category. ★Trekker (talk) 08:06, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Per WP:SMALLCAT - "Note also that this criterion does not preclude all small categories; a category which does have realistic potential for growth (...) may be kept even if only a small number of its articles actually exist at the present time." This category has potential for growth as there exist/will exist other Pokemon fangames._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 08:23, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- It doesn't have any more realistic growth than most other small categories.★Trekker (talk) 09:47, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per nom. WP:SMALLCAT is unclear here, the way I interpret it is that there should be a dedicated reason to expect growth, otherwise nearly any category could claim growth potential. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:27, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per nom. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 16:23, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per nom and Marcocapelle. There certainly are other Pokémon fangames in existence, but it is rare for fangames to be covered in RSs to the point of meeting GNG. If the situation changes and several new high-profile ones emerge, we can recreate the category.--Alexandra^IDV 08:32, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
