Category:Classical albums by date

[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: no consensus to delete these; I also don't see a consensus for the proposition that by-year categories should be created for every genre of albums, so I would recommend against creating them in favour of more discussion on this issue.

Subcats:
Nominator's rationale: /Merge (Listify if there is interest) There is no pre-existing scheme of Category:Albums by date and genre and no need for it as well. WP:ALBUM didn't deliberately create this scheme, nor is it a part of any project goal to segregate albums by genre and date. If you want to navigate classical albums by year, it's totally appropriate to create (e.g.) List of classical albums released in 1998 and there is some precedent to create lists of album by year and genre but not categories. Merge back into parent categories by genre/subgenre and year. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 18:40, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Beethoven Sonatas, Volume 2, No. 3, Op. 69; No. 5 Op. 102, No. 2 which contains recordings of 19th century music on an album released in 1984 (date of recording not noted).
  2. Mario Lanza Sings Songs from The Student Prince and The Desert Song is compilation of songs recorded in 1959 and released in 1989.
  3. Porgy and Bess (Glyndebourne album) is a 1935 opera, recorded in 1988 and released in 1989.
Leaving aside that in the more pop ends of Wikipedia, different recordings of the same thing are supposed to be merged, but taking on board that in pop music there is incremental changes to style, genre etc by year in commercial music just about makes sense. Does it for classical music? Does grouping the 3 disparate entries above as 1980s classical albums actually help navigation in anyway?
I had started this with a firm decision to support deletion, but on reflection, feel my knowledge of classical music is not strong enough to cast a !vote. Thinking aloud with my fingers is a different matter! --Richhoncho (talk) 05:00, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well edit warring is down to the individual article, so that's not really a good argurement not to do this. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 06:22, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It leads to incorrect categorization that is not always going to be caught. So you want to see articles like 21 (Adele album) in Category:2011 pop albums, Category:2011 soul albums, and Category:2011 contemporary R&B albums?
Yes. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 09:06, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Rename. To bring into line with parent categories Category:Companies based in Washington, D.C. and Category:Companies based in Pennsylvania. Discussed originally as a speedy nomination here. Tassedethe (talk) 18:30, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. Category:I Am Weasel characters redirects‎ was not tagged for this discussion and would therefore require a separate discussion. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:07, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary category; you may as well use What Links Here on List of I Am Weasel episodes. Possibly also the subcategories too. — This, that and the other (talk) 06:13, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:08, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose renaming Category:Relatives of Swami Vivekananda to Category:Datta family
  • Propose deleting Category:Relatives of Swami Vivekananda
Nominator's rationale: Consistency of categorization(this is the only "Relatives of <person>" category currently in WP:En) and relatives-of categorization risks causing circular categorization. After the category is renamed the Swami Vivekananda article should be placed in it. DexDor (talk) 04:22, 28 September 2013 (UTC) Changed to delete per comments below.

Category:Charter 77 signatories

[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: no consensus. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:09, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Having been a signatory to something is not normally a WP:DEFINING characteristic of a person. Some of the articles in this category (example) don't even currently mention the charter. For info: This could be listified to Charter_77#Signatories_.28selection.29. Many of the (at least 242, according to the article) signatories don't currently have a WP:EN article so the category doesn't form a complete list. An example of a previous CFD for signatories is Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2013_August_7#Category:Signers_of_the_Humanist_Manifesto. For info: All of the articles in this category that I've checked are in a category that better describes the person - Category:Czech writers, Category:Czechoslovak democracy activists etc. DexDor (talk) 04:17, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. Good Ol’factory (talk) 03:09, 10 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. This is basically a follow up from this discussion which was closed as no consensus since there was a mix of trails, some of which probably should be deleted and others kept. So I'm sorting through that list to see which ones merit a separate deletion discussion. Again the question here is, are the places along the trail defined by the trail? Note that mamy articles do not mention the trail. Vegaswikian (talk) 01:31, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
