  • Propose renaming Category:Recipients of the Médaille Militaire to Category:Recipients of the Médaille militaire
Nominator's rationale: The correct name has a lowercase m. The previous CfD Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2009_August_30#Military_awards probably did not realize the error in capitalization Werieth (talk) 20:54, 7 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"The Order is the highest decoration in France and is divided into five degrees: Chevalier (Knight), Officier (Officer), Commandeur (Commander), Grand Officier (Grand Officer) and Grand Croix (Grand Cross)."
Alright, now let's look at Médaille militaire:
"An interesting feature of the médaille is that it is also the supreme award for leadership, being awarded to generals and admirals who had been commanders-in-chief. This particular médaille is considered superior even to the grand cross of the Légion d'honneur."
...therefore it's clear that this is, in fact, an extremely defining award. - The Bushranger One ping only 01:50, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Commons category with local link same as on Wikidata

  • Propose deleting Category:Commons category with local link same as on Wikidata (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: This Wikipedia category currently contains over 300,000 categories/pages (e.g. Category:1009 and 10), and was presumably created for a good reason, but queries about the purpose and accuracy of the category on its talk page have gone unanswered since October. Why should a Wikipedia category/page be tagged for having a "a local link that is the same as the one stored in Wikidata" (whatever that means) ? How does it help Wikipedia readers/editors ? Note: Many categories/pages in this category are placed there by a template rather than containing a category tag. Note: This is just one of several categories below Category:Wikidata tracking categories.
Note: Due to the size of this category (and hence the disruption if this is deleted then recreated) this CFD shouldn't be closed as delete until a discussion period well in excess of the 7 day minimum. If someone (perhaps User:Multichill) can explain the purpose of this category and whether it is intended to be permanent or temporary then I may withdraw this CFD. Note: Closer integration of (English) Wikipedia with Wikidata may bring many benefits - e.g. it may reduce the attempts by some editors to use the Wikipedia categorization system as a sort of database (e.g. Category:Birds of Ukraine).

  • Keep. Read d:Wikidata:Commons category tracking. These categories are needed for a smooth transition to Wikidata. Multichill (talk) 09:31, 7 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    "Transition" implies a move from Wikipedia - is that the intention? Will these categories be deleted when the transition is complete? DexDor (talk) 08:30, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Yep, no point in keeping them when the move is done. I don't expect the move to be completed any time soon. These categories will probably be around for at least another year. Multichill (talk) 21:43, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Useful for maintenance. Jackmcbarn (talk) 19:30, 7 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete. While Category:Commons category with local link different than on Wikidata is useful to keep track of categories/pages that need attention, the categories/pages ended up in Category:Commons category with local link same as on Wikidata do not need any further maintenance and hence the purpose is unclear. If this category is deleted, the code of ((commons category)) which corresponds to adding categories/pages to this category will also need to be removed.--Quest for Truth (talk) 15:07, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Always adding a category is done to make life easier. It's also very nice to have the same consistent system in (10) different languages. It makes it easier to cope with this puzzle. Multichill (talk) 21:43, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    The same category helps us with figuring out how many are "good to go" compared to how many still need fixing. Legoktm (talk) 08:35, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Multichill. Legoktm (talk) 08:35, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus on deletion vs. retention, but for now we will rename all to "FOO matches". This is without prejudice to a future nomination of the new categories for deletion based on any rationale. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:15, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. All these categories contain Championship matches from a certain year. These categories are unnecessary and I'm pretty sure these are a clear example of WP:NOTDEFINING. – Michael (talk) 07:04, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. – Michael (talk) 07:49, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • If categories cannot be populated then what purpose do they serve to aid navigation, whether they are part of a series or not? Perhaps those that can be populated (3 articles as an absolute minimum) should be kept, and if they are I agree they should be renamed. GiantSnowman 13:58, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think we are coming to a bit of agreement here, because I agree no point in keeping them all if they are tiny; but a few tiny ones as part of a series can serve a useful purpose. Unfortunately, we don't yet know how much material exists to populate these categories. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:58, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
