September 19

[edit]

Category:Neo-fascist states

[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. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 16:56, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: A recently created category, it is unnecessary because there are very few (if any) states that could be described as "neo-fascist", those that can should simply be placed on the original category. -- 2804:248:FBE5:1D00:8D4A:4D8D:9DCE:E108 (talk) 23:21, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Marina Malls Around The World

[edit]

The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 16:56, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This deserves at the very least a renaming (to, say, Category:Marina Malls) but I don't really see the point. These are just shopping malls that happen to share a name and, presumably, the property of being close to a marina (although that does not seem to be the case for Marina Mall Accra or Chennai Marina Mall).

Category:Non-sovereign countries

[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. The category's contents are already in the merge target. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 17:01, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: 'Country' can mean anything, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of non-sovereign countries. Remove England, Scotland and Wales, all the rest are dependent territories. Privybst (talk) 15:37, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Non-sovereign country is clearly defined in the category page and the page List of non-sovereign countries Titus Gold (talk) 16:19, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This should probably be decided after we get a result from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of non-sovereign countries. If it indeed results in deletion, I support the merge. Pichpich (talk) 18:31, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, this covers grey area that can better be dealt with in a list (in which details can be elaborated), not so much in a category which only offers inclusion or exclusion. For example Curaçao is that a non-sovereign country or a dependent territory? There is no definite answer to that question. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:02, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and do not merge. Dependent territory has some definition, even if it gets really fuzzy at its edges. Non-sovereign countries is simply vague, and not remotely a defining characteristic (WP:CATDEF). CMD (talk) 05:05, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and do not merge despite the creator's claim, there is no clear definition of the contents of this. The phrase being referred to is presumably recognised as countries but do not hold supreme sovereignty, but the phrase recognised as countries is meaningful only if "country" means sovereign state, and that's explicitly ruled out by the second half of the definition. The definition of a dependent territory, as CMD says, gets fuzzy around the edges, but in most cases it is clear whether an entity meets the definition or not. And several of the entities in this category are clearly not dependent territories. Kahastok talk 07:20, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename/merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 17:03, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename, Moorish appears to be used as a synonym of Al-Andalus in these three cases, while Al-Andalus is more precise. Also merge the 3rd category per WP:SMALLCAT. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:12, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 17:04, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete, not a defining characteristic. The term Mauritanian Moors is presumably meant to refer to the Arab-Berber part of the population but they are the majority anyway (~70%). Marcocapelle (talk) 07:02, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- Moors is the name used for the Arab-Berber "white" population (also known as Bidhane in the local Hassaniya Arabic dialect). Although it's more common in French, it's not rare to see it in English productions about the country. I think that keeping it does no harm :) Tidjani Saleh (talk) 18:11, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Fiction about astronomical locations

[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 Category:Fiction about astronomical locations to Category:Fiction about astronomical objects; split Category:Fictional astronomical locations to Category:Fictional astronomical objects. – Fayenatic London 11:01, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: To match the real-world Category:Astronomical objects; space stations are not currently in the category. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 16:30, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • We would be narrowing the scope of the category tree by excluding any articles on fiction about astronomical locations that are not celestial bodies. Arthur C. Clarke's "The Sentinel" is set in Tycho Crater, and not the entire Moon. There are stories already out there written about specific extraterrestrial locations that are not just a generic setting on a celestial body or several parts of one, but about a specific place. Similarly there is a lot more fiction about non-terrestrial locations which are fictional that don't cover entire selestial bodies or several parts of one. The first category in this nomination is about fiction about locations, which would deal with real places. The second category in this nomination is about fictional ones, such as found in many a short story in the standard scifi pulp magazines (ie. Asimov's, Analog). Though instead of "astronomical" perhaps it should use "space", because of the fictional aspect -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 03:18, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People fined in the Partygate scandal

[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. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 17:13, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Precision, NPOV, and naming consistency per WP:CATNAME. 'Fined' is ambiguous and inaccurate as these are civil, not criminal penalties, and 'fine' is more generally used for criminal penalties in the UK, and 'fine' is not used in the article - it is always 'fixed penalty notice'. 'Scandal' is subjective. Other similar categories use 'Recipients of something' rather than 'People who had something done to them'. -- DeFacto (talk). 06:47, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete nondefining for all members (t · c) buidhe 09:59, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename -- The title should be shorter. Category:People fined for Partygate affair might do. The full explanation can go in a headnote. I am not wholly clear, but the penalty notices were issued by the police and appeal would be to the magistrates court, not the county court or a tribunal. This is much what happens with minor motoring offences. Yes, they are technically not treated as criminal convictions, but I do not think they have been decriminalised in the way that parking enforcement has been.

  • Delete as non-defining. Pichpich (talk) 18:44, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete SMALLCAT: Partygate has been a big political issue in UK, ultimately ending in the resignation of the Johnson government. However, the names of the offenders (mostly civil servants) have not been publicly named. Thus we have only four names in the category. The article mentions one more person who has no article but 126 Fixed Penalty Notices were issued to 83 people. So, there are 78 people who might be in the category, but whose names have not been published. There is thus no prospect of the category being properly populated. The known FPN recipients are all named in the article. I am thus concluding that this is not something useful to have as a category, unless a full list of FPN recipients is published, which is unlikely.

Nominator's rationale: Propose upmerging to Category:Cities in Ternopil Oblast. In Ukraine, there is no formal separation into cities and towns. Sometimes urban-type settlements are erroneously called "towns", but all entities in this category are cities. Ymblanter (talk) 21:08, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
