Category:Psychiatry awards

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 to Category:Psychiatry profession and Category:Medicine awards. The other parent Category:Psychology awards also seems perfectly valid, so I am going to merge it there too. – Fayenatic London 00:13, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: upmerge to parent categories per WP:SMALLCAT, currently only article and generally it seems there is no clear boundary between psychiatry awards and psychology awards. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:48, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is a fair point. I changed the second target for that reason. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:05, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. – Fayenatic London 00:16, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete and move Glossary of psychiatry directly in Category:Psychiatry, except the one latter article the other articles are not about terminology but about a content topic within the field of psychiatry and already categorized as such.

Category:LGBT legislators in the United Kingdom

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 keep, WP:SNOW applies (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 12:49, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Procedural nomination. This category was first created in September because there were categories for both Category:LGBT members of the Parliament of the United Kingdom and Category:LGBT members of the Scottish Parliament separately filed as subcategories of Category:LGBT legislators (as well as three members of the Welsh Senedd individually filed there without being subcatted). However, the category has been arbitrarily emptied out of process by anonymous IPs several times in the past three days, initially with no explanation whatsoever and then later with a claim that politicians in the UK are not called legislators. (But then explain Category:Legislators in the United Kingdom, which has existed for over 15 years.)
As always, however, editors arbitrarily emptying categories themselves is not acceptable Wikipedia practice — people may nominate categories they don't like for a deletion or renaming discussion, but may not simply empty them out themselves without following the established process. Accordingly, I'm listing this here for discussion about a potential new name for it, but removing it from articles or categories without consensus is not acceptable — especially since this category was simply removed from the contents rather than being replaced with a different category, meaning that the removal pulled everybody out of the parent trees entirely (which is also not acceptable). Bearcat (talk) 17:05, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, this is the IP who's been editwarring over it. Interesting about-face, there. Bearcat (talk) 19:17, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: speedy merge C2A. – Fayenatic London 13:36, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Recently-created duplicate category. * Pppery * it has begun... 14:42, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment We can move without deleting. It's not necessary to delete from my view. We don't have graphic designer categories yet. Arian Writing Talk 06:10, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies. My mistake. No Great Shaker (talk) 09:03, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Speedy deleted as G4 by Izno * Pppery * it has begun... 14:32, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This category is clearly an example of WP:PERFCAT, and a nearly identical category was previously deleted [1] in July of this year. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 13:46, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People from the Collectivity of Saint Martin

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 to Category:Saint Martinois people ("Alt 1"). – Fayenatic London 17:26, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Saint Martin (island) is divided between the French Collectivity of Saint Martin and the Dutch Sint Maarten. The name of the main people category for the French part is cumbersome and its subcategories use the ambiguous form of Saint Martin foos. These problems can be resolved by using the demonym Saint Martinois. This proposal follows discussion at WP:CFDS and Talk:Saint Martin (island)#Saint Martin category names. TSventon (talk) 12:42, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You're right, Fayenatic london. Sorry, I was referring only to the child category. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:03, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Saint-Martinois is the denonym in French. In English it goes without -. Super Ψ Dro 13:34, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Note: this comment of mine was made before Alt 2 was added as an option. Super Ψ Dro 13:09, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No Great Shaker, Oculi, Fayenatic london, Super Dromaeosaurus, I have added some alternatives above, please let me know if the format is wrong. TSventon (talk) 23:47, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:University of Notre Dame faculty

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: Withdrawn by nom. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 13:53, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I'd like to merge this into Category:University of Notre Dame as a subcategory thereof. It seems like a natural place to put it. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 06:06, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Categories:Acts of the Oireachtas

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 to Category:Acts of the Oireachtas of the 1920s, Category:1923 in Irish law (etc). – Fayenatic London 12:38, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: None of these categories have any more than 4 pages, and some have just a single page. It's more useful to have them all in the same category, and then sort them by year within that. Iveagh Gardens (talk) 11:05, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Then perhaps a wider proposal is needed. What is in modern Irish Law (by year) that is not also in Acts of the Oireachtas (by year)? They cannot be many Common Law decisions of note in modern times. Could these be merged as first step? Laurel Lodged (talk) 11:12, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Marcocapelle (talk) 05:56, 21 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]
– Fayenatic London 22:58, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • With decades it will be easier to implement than with legislative periods because certain years will need to be split in the latter case. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:21, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the ping, Marcocapelle. I have no objection at all. I've already voted in favour of a merge into legislative periods but I'll be happy with decades as an alternative. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:07, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • On the contrary, decade categories usually start with the decade. Please check the subcategories of e.g. Category:2020s. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:23, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • These are legislation categories. They belong to a wider group of categories that are not generally organised that way. Please check, for example, the subcategories of Category:Statutory law by legislature. Putting the word "Act(s)" at the beginning has the advantage that it is compatible with either capitalization of that word. It is presently capitalized in the overwhelming majority of WP articles because the laws of all or most English speaking countries say that it is supposed to be. James500 (talk) 06:52, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • In every category tree by topic, the century, decade and year category names start with time while most other category names start with the topic. If you want to change that, please go ahead proposing it, but then it should be changed all over and not just for Acts of the Oireachtas. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:21, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have not proposed any change. This is already the status quo for legislation categories generally, including the existing year categories for numerous countries' legislation, including but not limited to Ireland. James500 (talk) 08:03, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the comment on the proposal from James500, if not the objection to it below, that it would be a lot better to move from Category:Acts of the Oireachtas 2020 to Category:Acts of the Oireachtas of the 2020s, keeping the current style and capitalisation.

Nominator's rationale: consistency of naming with other Go competitions categories by region and by country Coastside (talk) 04:47, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I should have noted that this request meets criterion C2E: Author request. Coastside (talk) 16:00, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 08:04, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Contains only a userbox. This was nominated separately from the below nomination since it wasn't previously discussed back in 2020. The same logic applies, though. * Pppery * it has begun... 04:21, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale These categories were previously kept at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2020 October 8#Category:Wikipedians who like Cocotama because SpinnerLaserzthe2nd joined themn. They have now left the categories, putting them in an identical situation to the ones that were deleted at that CfD. * Pppery * it has begun... 04:16, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
