Nominator's rationale: rename, television series are normally diffused by country, e.g. Category:Animated television series by country.

Historic places in New Zealand

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: do not rename the renaming nominations, but merge those nominated for merging. Participation has been strong over the renamings, but the mergers do not seem to have been examined closely. It is not appropriate to merge the regional NZHPT categories to Category:Heritage New Zealand, as their sub-cats (the ones nominated for renaming) are already within Heritage New Zealand Category 1 historic places, Heritage New Zealand Category 2 historic places or Heritage New Zealand historic areas; so I will implement the merger by merging where appropriate to Category:History of the Auckland Region etc, because I do not think anybody intended to remove the subcats altogether from the parent hierarchy for each region. – Fayenatic London 10:46, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:CATNAME Do not write the category structure in names. Heritage New Zealand no longer uses the term register. Match parent "History of ...." Eliminate WP:SMALLCAT layer of one 1 or 2 subcategories.

  • Nonsense. "Category 1 historic places in Taranaki" stands alone. Nobody gives a flying fig that this is a "NZHPT" or "HNZ" category. We're never going to allow parallel local categories of historic places for the same thing.
    William Allen Simpson (talk) 06:47, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • You say "Nobody gives a flying fig", but most of the commenters here have objected to the removal of "Heritage New Zealand" from the category names, so clearly there are people who do "give a flying fig". And who is the "we" you speak of? If there were local categories of historic places proposed that were defining characteristics of those places, then that would be entirely appropriate and within the guidelines, and I personally would have no problem in allowing them. Since you mention Taranaki, it's worth noting that of the 1,140 historic heritage buildings, structures or items identified in Taranaki by district councils as of 2014, only 160 were listed by Heritage New Zealand,[3] so there could be potential scope for local categories! Paora (talk) 10:46, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've had a lifelong interest in historic preservation, and live in one of the original homes in the oldest historic district of Ann Arbor. (Down the street from "Ann [Allen]'s Arbor" on Allen Creek. I'm an Allen, on my mother's side.) My great-aunty on my father's side lived in a "category B-listed" art deco house in Scotland. We have local historic districts, but the listing standards are state and national by law.
  • "Category 1 historic places in X" is how we've done the rest of the world. We don't graft "National Heritage List of <Foo>" onto each of them.
  • This eliminates the "New Zealand [...] in <region>, New Zealand" naming issue.
    William Allen Simpson (talk) 15:34, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Responding to William Allen Simpson's three points above:
    • Interesting but not relevant here, as this discussion is about New Zealand, not Michigan or Scotland.
    • How we've done these New Zealand categories for the last 10 years, since the first of these categories were created, is to begin the category name with the listing authority, until now NZHPT, i.e. the New Zealand Historic Places Trust, to distinguish clearly from local authority heritage listings. This format has been stable and has not previously attracted comment. The New Zealand Historic Places Trust has been renamed Heritage New Zealand, hence the need to rename the category.
    • Not a big issue.
    Paora (talk) 09:40, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The point to take away is that I'm familiar with categorization of historic places in multiple jurisdictions. New Zealand isn't really that different. While nobody cared enough to notice that NZHPT junk on the old categories, that's not a good reason to resist standard category naming practices.

Cultural depictions

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: keep. Note 1: There is support from both sides for listing and purging less significant instances. That can go ahead anyway without further discussion, but if there's a mass purge which might be contentious then I suggest linking to diffs or noting the removed items on the category (or main article) talk page. Lists in some form probably exist in all these cases already, either near the end of the main biography or as a separate page. Note 2: the category for James Joyce has been separately nominated and deleted with partial merging per Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2023 February 3#Category:Cultural depictions of James Joyce. – Fayenatic London 22:41, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
more categories
Nominator's rationale: manually merge as follow-up on this earlier discussion in which the top "depictions of people" category was merged to Category:Works based on real people. In contrast to the works categories, the depictions categories contain an awful lot of non-defining mentions, so this really has to be sorted out manually.

Nominator's rationale: These are effectively the same, most mountaineering equipment companies (and manufacturers) also make climbing equipment and visa versa. The new target category should also, therefore, be renamed as "Climbing and mountaineering equipment companies". Aszx5000 (talk) 00:47, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Given we have two large "head" categories of "mountaineering" and "climbing", it is better not to choose one over the other (and for some people, climbing is rock climbing and not mountaineering). Also, would not disperse, as most of these companies have consolidated over time and do such a wide range of mountaineering, climbing, hill walking, camping, etc so dispersal would not be helpful. For example, here is one of the biggest climbing and mountaineering magazines, Outside, calling Mammut Sports Group a "mountaineering and climbing company". We have them in Category:Climbing equipment companies and in Category:Mountaineering equipment manufacturers. We should merge and rename "Climbing and mountaineering equipment companies", like the magazine. Aszx5000 (talk) 09:28, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I notice that we previously merged Category:Climbing and mountaineering-related lists, which also made sense. Aszx5000 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 10:42, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't do this as some historically only focused on mountaineering, and as we have the major head category of Mountaineering, so readers will search for them from that. Also, some of these are not "magazines" but "journals", with large advisory boards, issues and volumes, etc. Given there is not a large amount, merging them all into "Climbing and mountaineering magazines and journals" would make it easier for readers to find them without missing any due to what are now semantic definitions.
