Propose deleting Category:Self-published authors (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: While some authors, in various genres, may have become known for some works they self-published, this seems to be non-defining characteristic that is incidental to their defining traits as novelists, cartoonists, playwrights, etc. and contra WP:COPDEF guidelines. I think this is a trivial and arbitrary category: how many self-published works are required to be included? Self-publishing can be found in any literary genre, from alternative comics and punk zines to poetry, fiction, and self-help books. I'd say that any category that groups Oscar Wilde, Gerhard (cartoonist), Beatrix Potter, David Duke, Milo Yiannopoulos, Stephenie Meyer, and Kamala (wrestler) is pretty indiscriminate and unhelpful for anything but niche trivia. --Animalparty! (talk) 21:24, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Self published just means you're paying for the costs and I assume notable people pay for any number of services: valet parking, groceries, utilities. If these people are notable as authors, then group them by whatever type of author they are. - RevelationDirect (talk) 11:00, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The exact method by which a writers works was published is not defining.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:06, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Several of these people were self-publishing because their work kept being rejected by mainstream publishers or could not pass censorship tests. For example Beatrix Potter's article explains concerning her debut novel: "Unable to find a buyer for the work, she published it for family and friends at her own expense in December 1901." In Oscar Wild's case, he apparently self-published The Soul of Man Under Socialism to voice his support for libertarian socialism. Not exactly a mainstream view in the Victorian era. I feel that we are trying to sweep under the rug how inhospitable the publishing business tends to be. Dimadick (talk) 22:27, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

These are two verifiable yet widely unrelated facts that may be significant to their respective biographies, but that don't demonstrate "self-published" itself is a defining trait of the author. We don't have categories for "People ignored by mainstream publishers." How many self-published books by Potter, Wilde, or anyone else would merit inclusion? All? More than half? Just one? Unlike Category:Self-published books, a person's publishing status can vary by time and medium. Similarly, we have Category:Crowdfunded projects, but not Category:Crowdfunded people. --Animalparty!

Propose deleting Category:Prisons in Haryana

Nominator's rationale: Only one article categorized under this. A list article about prisons in Haryana. No articles about prisons in Haryana exist on Wikipedia making this category a one-off. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:14, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- The article indicates there are 19 prisons which would make a viable category if we had articles on individual prisons; but we do not. The list artifcle is well categorised so no need to merge anywhere. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:09, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The mainspace was deleted over failing GNG. Thus, the category is now useless and is only under two articles that are members of the faculty of the school. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:14, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Do we have, or do we need, a clear policy of when Male categories are needed in occupations?Rathfelder (talk) 22:55, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

We have WP:OCEGRS, are you thinking of something more specific? Marcocapelle (talk) 04:32, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the male categories are actors, singers, artists, writers and sports people. We have male poets, Male dramatists and playwrights and Male non-fiction writers. I'm inclined to agree that for journalists this is a trivial intersection, but if so, is this not also true for non-fiction writers? Maybe we agree that imagination is affected by gender, but more factual stuff isnt? We dont seem to have male scientists. Rathfelder (talk) 14:19, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Isn't it useful to have such a division? BTW non-trivial. --Just N. (talk) 14:33, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That's completely against the WP:CATGENDER consensus. Abstract:
As another example, a female heads of government category is valid as a topic of special encyclopedic interest, though it does not need to be balanced directly against a "Male heads of government" category, as historically the vast majority of political leaders have been male. [...] Do not create separate categories for male and female occupants of the same position, such as "Male Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom" vs. "Female Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom".
Unlike sportsmen or actors, there is no reason to argue that male journalists would have any activity that would be defined by their gender, even for men's magazines (I guess that women are just as good as men in writing articles in men's magazines).

Merge/delete per nom. Place Clichy (talk) 00:52, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I was going to support, but I'm ending up oppose because we have Category:Women journalists. If there is some encyclopaedic interest in women journalists then there has to be encyclopaedic interest in men journalists. Either both are removed or neither - otherwise it is sexist: men journalists become invisible - we cannot assume that a genderless Category:Journalists is populated entirely by male journalists - and if it is to be populated entirely by male journalists, then it should be identified as such. My utter preference is that we simply have Category:Journalists populated by male, female, and non-binary journalists with no differentiation. Gender is complex - people assigned a gender may not identify with that gender. And some people (such as myself) may be very aware they have characteristics of both genders, and on some days, and in some circumstances, may identify with one gender more than the other. And people may publicly or privately permanently change their gender. Removing gender from categories where it serves no useful purpose would be my preference, but it has to be done bilaterally or multilaterally rather than unilaterally. SilkTork (talk) 17:44, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:CATGENDER explicitly says that male and female categories do not need to be balanced directly. Sports is an exception that is specifically mentioned in the guideline, because men and women competitions are usually separated. Consequently Category:Women by occupation has 157 subcategories, while Category:Men by occupation has 34 subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:31, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Journalism is an occupation where neither gender is dominant, like acting. Subcategorization by gender should follow acting's example. Dimadick (talk) 22:31, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose See WP:GENDER and also because Category:Women journalists exist. If you're going to remove these roles, remove female based roles as well. -- User:SuperSkaterDude45 (talk) 02:23, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as creator of at least some of these. We have been dinged in the past for segregating women of a certain profession into categories by gender without doing the same for men in the same profession. This is an attempt to respond to that concern. Yes, there are a lot more male journalists than female, historically...even so, if we're going to categorize by one gender we need to start thinking about doing so by both more broadly.

Or if I may borrow a line from BDD, who said it elsewhere better and more concisely: "...this move would absolutely further entrench our systemic bias. It's probably worth discussing clarification to CATGENDER." --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 17:47, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Paintings of the Rubenshuis to Category:Paintings in the collection of the Rubenshuis

Nominator's rationale: The subcategories of Category:Paintings by collection previously used a mixture of the styles "Paintings in" and "Paintings of"; in a CfD nomination in May I argued for changing the instances of the latter style as (e.g.) "Paintings of the Louvre" could be taken to mean paintings depicting the Louvre's building, rather than ones in its collection. The outcome of that nomination was that every "Paintings of" was changed to "Paintings in the collection of", because "Paintings in" was thought to be imprecise. (A painting in the Louvre's collection might not actually be in the Louvre at any given time; it might be at the Louvre-Lens, at the Louvre Abu Dhabi, or on loan to another institution.) So it now remains for these examples of "Paintings in" to be changed to "Paintings in the collection of", in order to achieve consistency.

In the cases of the Castello Sforzesco, the Old St. John's Hospital and the Palazzo Abatellis, which are buildings housing museums rather than museum collections per se, I propose changing the names in the categories to those of the museums in question: the Pinacoteca del Castello Sforzesco, the Memling Museum and the Galleria Regionale della Sicilia. I've also found five instances of "Paintings of [a collection]" which slipped through the net at the time of the original nomination, so I've included those as well. "Paintings of the Royal Collection" should be changed to "Paintings in the Royal Collection", as opposed to "Paintings in the collection of the Royal Collection" (which would be both redundant and meaningless), per the outcome of this CfD nomination in June. Ham II (talk) 09:00, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose move from Category:Paintings in the Old St. John's Hospital to Category:Paintings in the collection of the Memling Museum, as the museum is not called the "Memling Museum" but the "Saint John's Hospital".[1] We shouldn't be making up names. Would support a move to Category:Paintings in the St. John's Hospital as the "Old" isn't necessary here. Fram (talk) 07:47, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't make "Memling Museum" up; there are several pages of results for it at Google Books, notably a guidebook published by the museum itself titled The Memling Museum—St John's Hospital Bruges (Irène Smets, 2001). (Some of these instances will be of the variant form "Hans Memling Museum".) That said, I've found a single source that says this name is outdated: Andre de Vries, Flanders: A Cultural History (2007): "What was formerly called the Memling Museum is now part of the Sint-Janshospitaal complex". Conversely, The Art Museum from Boullée to Bilbao (Andrew McClellan, 2008), published a year later, refers to "the new Memling Museum in Bruges".

Given these contradictory sources, a category name that uses "St. John's Hospital", or whichever variant of it is the WP:COMMONNAME, might be best. Perhaps this should be "Sint-Janshospitaal" instead of "St. John's Hospital", but the existence of other St. John's Hospitals (not to mention the various ways of writing "Saint"/"St."/"St") makes this hard to determine. As other St John's Hospitals exist, I would oppose Category:Paintings in the St. John's Hospital without "Bruges" as a disambiguator. Whatever is deemed to be the best name, the title of the article currently at Old St. John's Hospital should be consistent with it. Ham II (talk) 16:52, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose -- This is merely adding unnecessary verbosity to what are reasonably clear names. If verbosity is necessary, it can be put in a headnote, to define the scope more clearly. I have no view on the Memling controversy, which ought to be dealt with in a separate nom. It is reasonable to regard a picture as "in" a museum, even if it is in practice out-housed in a remote store or even on loan to another museum. Picture of the Louvre (which is a former royal palace) ought to refer to paintings of the building, not the collections housed in it. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:25, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
What about the categories already at "Paintings in the collection of"? Should they be moved to "Paintings in", as I originally suggested? Whichever style is decided on should be applied consistently across Category:Paintings by collection. Ham II (talk) 06:57, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If a consistent style were agreed on, I'd start CfR nominations to apply it across the category tree for paintings in museums and other collections, and after that for other works in museum collections such as sculptures, drawings, etc. I'm looking at the subcategories of Category:Collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art at the moment, where there's a mixture of three styles: "Paintings in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art", "Clothing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art" and "Architecture in collection of [sic] the Metropolitan Museum of Art". It strikes me how the architecture category really needs "collection of" (even if the current name is grammatically incorrect); "Architecture of the Metropolitan Museum of Art" suggests the architecture of the museum's building, and "Architecture in the Metropolitan Museum of Art" requires more careful parsing than the unambiguous "[...] in the collection of [...]". Ham II (talk) 09:07, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Propose Renaming Category:Waterways campaigners of the United Kingdom to Category:British waterway activists

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:CATNAME and the spirit of WP:C2C, consistency with established category tree names

These people are definitely defined by their activism preserving British waterways and canals but there doesn't appear to have been a single "campaign" and this follows the more common naming format in Category:British activists.
