Category:Doping

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. per C2B (disambiguation required) and C2C (lies between Category:Drugs in sport and Category:Doping cases in sport in the tree). Renamed to Category:Doping in sport as the tree uses the singular, not the plural. - The Bushranger One ping only 02:01, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose renaming Category:Doping to Category:Doping in sports
Nominator's rationale: Rename. doping is a disamiguation page, so this category name is highly ambiguous. It only covers doping in sports, not doping in semiconductors, or construction materials, etc. 76.65.128.252 (talk) 23:37, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: keep as ((Category disambiguation)) page. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 06:24, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Probably speedily. A cat page that is trying to be a dab page! Note that there is a Wold Newton dab page. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 22:57, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That's the template I couldn't seem to find. keep, as an empty place, as per the disambiguation template - to avoid two mostly unrelated topic being confused for each other.Oranjblud (talk) 03:26, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose renaming Category:Electro rock to Category:Electro rock music groups
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Of the 25 entries in this category 23 are groups playing this music genre. The remaining two are an album and an individual musician. __meco (talk) 16:04, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Nominator's rationale: Merge. No others in Category:Ancient Greek sites by country have a sub-cat called "archaeological", and neither category explains what the intended difference was (if any). I'm open to a reverse merge (probably leaving a redirect) to avoid ambiguity. – Fayenatic London 11:57, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Klingon-language operas

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.

Nominator's rationale: There is only one Klingon-language opera (so far), but even the whole parent-category:Klingon language has just six articles, with another four more in its two sub-cats. I propose deletion of category:Klingon-language operas, but at the very least it should be broadened to Category:Klingon literature or the like. tahc chat 02:41, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Please read WP:SMALLCAT, the part after "unless".
I didn't point to the July 2011 CfD because it was recent, but because of its arguments to keep this category. There is no need to repeat those arguments here; however, there is a need to produce new arguments for the category's deletion. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 01:19, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Any arguments last year's CFD would also apply to Category:Klingon literature, but this fact was not noted then. I think most would agree we don't need both. Since Category:Klingon literature would have 3 or 4 pages, we should still either delete category:Klingon-language operas or broadened it into Category:Klingon literature. tahc chat 05:58, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I don't understand – there is no and, as far as I can tell, there never was a Category:Klingon literature. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 06:55, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
True, but not the issue. My point is that (while we don't really need either) renaming/expanding Category:Klingon-language operas into Category:Klingon literature would be much better than keeping the Klingon-language operas, for which some folks are voting for. You may vote to rename instead of just "Keep" or "Upmerge". tahc chat 00:25, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
