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 especially for consistency's sake, considering the consensus for the parent category. bibliomaniac15 04:08, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: In line with similar categories. Mechanicians might be a Danish term, but as an English term it is very obscure. Rathfelder (talk) 21:39, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Alumni of New College Stamford

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 for now. bibliomaniac15 04:14, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The category contains one article, Harriadnie Beau, and two redirects to crime articles. I can't find any evidence that Beau attended the college, so inclusion fails WP:CATV. None of the articles mention New College, Stamford (now renamed as Stamford College), so I suggest that the category should be deleted. TSventon (talk) 20:37, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Name Article Redirect to Verified Notes
Harriadnie Beau Article No
Jemma Lilley Redirect Murder of Aaron Pajich Possible I don't have access to Times article
Shaied Nazir Redirect Murder of Ross Parker No
Doxis Bekris Article No hospitalitynet article mentions University of Wolverhampton not Stamford College
I have found four potential members of the category, but not verified any of them as alumni of the college. The two articles are of borderline notability (Beau's article was nominated for deleted with no consensus and Bekris' article is tagged for notability) so I don't think the college article needs a notable alumni section. The category has some potential for growth as the college has been around from 1967 to the present. TSventon (talk) 11:00, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
In that case, I'm swayed to delete with no prejudice against later recreation at the new name iff articles on several verified alumni are found/created. Grutness...wha? 15:21, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. bibliomaniac15 04:07, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:OVERLAPCAT, there is no obvious difference in scope between the two categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:42, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. bibliomaniac15 04:07, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:NONDEF, people in this category are characterized neither as "Islamic" nor as "figure", they are people occurring in the Hebrew Bible, the New Testament and the Quran and already categorized as such. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:36, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: speedy delete WP:G7. @IslamMyLoveMyLife: if you create a page by mistake, please tag it with ((db-author)) rather than redirecting it. – Fayenatic London 19:42, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: speedy delete WP:G7, category was emptied and redirected to Category:Islamic figures by its creator. – Fayenatic London 19:44, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete, no need to have a redirect for such an implausible search term. "Pre-Islamic figures" would apply to everyone who lived before Muhammad. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:13, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. bibliomaniac15 04:06, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:NONDEF, apart from Muhammad nobody in this category was well-known as a preacher. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:05, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It seems the creator of this category who made all the entries doesn't know what Medieval means. Smeat75 (talk) 02:02, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Pre-Muslim saints

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: speedy delete WP:G7, category's creator has moved the contents to Category:Pre-Islamic figures and then to Category:Islamic figures, e.g. [1]. – Fayenatic London 19:50, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Confusing name. Saints canonised before Islam? Is there an article discussing these? I'd expect to see them discussed in Wali, although that does say "As scholars have noted, saints venerated in traditional Turkish Sunni Islam may be classified into three principal categories:... The "greats figures of Islam", both pre-Islamic and those who came after Muhammad, as well as certain sainted rulers." So, perhaps there's case for Pre-Islamic Saints but that's also confusing as it covers Christian saints that aren't consider saints in Islam. Doug Weller talk 13:38, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Doug Weller: There are many people who were considered Muslims, following the teachings of Islamic prophets before Muhammad. IslamMyLoveMyLife (talk) 13:42, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Too little content for an eponymous category. ―Justin (koavf)TCM 09:19, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Category was created a month before the template (over two years ago) and has links to not only the episode list, seasons, but also the images created for the series, certainly more than a "little". Wyliepedia @ 10:36, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Being abused for figures who are not Islamic at all, but pre-Islamic. Elizium23 (talk) 06:45, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom.Smeat75 (talk) 10:22, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Yup. And newly created Category:Pre-Islamic figures doesn't make much sense either. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:40, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
