Nominator's rationale: Per WP:C2D main article List of monarchs of Frisia, which I just renamed after reaching agreement on the talk page, and re-parenting some (grand)child cats so that all would fit in the Category:Monarchs tree. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 21:51, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People of the Dutch East Indies

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: option B (from foo). (non-admin closure) CLYDE TALK TO ME/STUFF DONE (please mention me on reply) 20:03, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Option A
  • Propose renaming Category:People of the Dutch East Indies to Category:Dutch East Indies people
  • Propose renaming Category:Netherlands New Guinea people to Category:Dutch New Guinea people
Option B
Nominator's rationale: Option A would match Dutch East Indies people by century and its sub-cats. Option B changes "of" to "from" following recent precedents, but there are also recent precedents for the pattern in Option A. Note: the century sub-cats and Category:People of the Dutch East Indies by occupation + its sub-cats can follow this CFD using the Speedy page. Fayenatic London 21:37, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Currently included in the Category:Paralympic competitors by sport and country, category names do not reflect that as all paratriathletes or likewise are not necessarily Paralympic competitors. Categories are formatted (or what to call it) as an Olympic/Paralympic category (Sportspeople of Foo instead of Fooian sportspeople) and I have not yet found any larger or longer-included parasport having a cross-category Category:Fooian (parasport)people from Category:(Parasport)people and Category:Fooian (sports)people.
Four categories with one non-Paralympic connection are proposed merge. A couple have a single Paralympic connection, but small categories seem accepted in the sub-categorisation scheme.
Note: One subcategory not included here, Category:Paracanoeists of Tahiti, is currently proposed for deletion at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2023 April 30. Kaffet i halsen (talk) 17:12, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@LaundryPizza03: It's been almost a week, and I notice the category still has not been renamed. Is this because it still needs to be purged?

Men's club did not play above the fifth tier in Austria in 27 years. The "article" LUV Graz is a just a redirect to women's club. Geregen2 (talk) 15:25, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: WP:C2D main article Regnal list. Also to avoid confusion with Category:Lists of monarchs (which regularly happens).
Re-parenting We may even have to take it out of its parent category Category:Lists of monarchs to avoid confusion and because it may not be is the proper place for it, but its grandparent Category:Monarchy-related lists maybe? and per Marcocapelle entirely remove it from the Lists tree, since that tree is about Wikipedia lists, not real lists. The problem is: how else would we categorise Regnal list and this category? And its most basic, regnal lists are just Category:Texts, but they may be Category:Documents (on paper) or Category:Inscriptions (carved in clay, stone, rock, wood etc., like the Abydos King List), so we can't specify it further. The alternative would be to put
Put regnal lists in both Category:Documents AND Category:Inscriptions?, because they can be written on documents like paper/papyrus/parchment etc. or inscribed into clay tablets, stone walls, rock, wood etc.
What else might we add? Category:Sequences in time, perhaps? Category:Lines of succession seems to be about future successions, not past successions. Regnal lists do not claim what should happen, but what has happened already. (Although they may sometimes be inaccurate or fraudulous, they make claims about past sequences of people who have been monarchs in/over a particular area/state or people/society/community). Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 13:29, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That seems to point to a parent/child relationship rather than parallel tree structures. That is "Legendary Sumerian kings" as a child of "Sumerian kings". No? So the remedy is renaming, not merging. No? Laurel Lodged (talk) 15:06, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Laurel Lodged Not quite. The Sumerian King List is a group of clay tablets with text carved into them. It exists physically, outside of Wikipedia.
The List of Mesopotamian dynasties is a web page on Wikipedia, which compiles information from a number of sources (either physical or digital). It does not exist outside the Internet. We Wikipedians created it. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 15:49, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
On wiki, "list" means a wiki list. If it's a clay tablet, then that's a whole other thing. A new nmae, but not a neologism, is needed for this situation. Laurel Lodged (talk) 16:51, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's why I propose "Category:Regnal lists" per WP:C2D main article Regnal list. My only question is how it should be parented. My current suggestions for parents are:
^ These cats are about the medium/material by which these regnal lists have been recorded. Most of the Regnal list#Historical examples are carved in stone walls, the Sumerian King List is carved in clay tablets, the Turin King List is written on papyrus, so only that last one is a "document". (Technically, a list of monarchs on Wikipedia is a digital regnal list, the medium being "the Internet/Wikipedia", so Category:Lists of monarchs should be in Category:Regnal lists rather than the other way around, but that's MOS:SELFREF, WP:CIRC, "breaking the fourth wall" etc., and generally just plain silly).
Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 19:55, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure but perhaps Category:Archaeological artifacts might qualify for all the non-document regnal lists, i.e. the inscriptions of successive series of monarchs carved into clay, stone, rock, wood etc.. For the "document" regnal lists written on paper, papyrus, parchment etc. Category:Reference works might actually suit, because that's what it's basically is: a collection of information for reference purposes just in case anyone forgets which king or queen ruled when and in which order.

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SHAREDNAME. Same as Category:Churches by Patron Saint.Laurel Lodged (talk) 10:09, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Aciram: with apologies to @Paul 012: You say "it is a subcategory to the usefull category "Category:Temples by deity"". If that is true, then it is also true for Category:Churches by Patron Saint which is also parented to Category:Temples by deity. Your objections are therefore contradictory. Laurel Lodged (talk) 11:01, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry, but I do not understand your conclusion. This is not a question of the name of a building- It is a question of the building being dedicated to the worship of different dieties. If you want to delete this category, you will have to empty and delete the entire "Category:Temples by deity" and each subcategory it contains. It is not the same thing with :Category:Churches by Patron Saint. The Christian churches all worship the same god, even if they are dedicated to different saints. They are not included in the "Category:Temples by deity". In the cases of :Category:Churches by Patron Saint, it is sorted by the names of buildings, not by the worship of different gods. Because of all these things, it is not contradictive at all, and very different cases. Not that I have ever even been aware of the Category:Churches by Patron Saint-discussion in the first place, but since you brought it up. --Aciram (talk) 15:52, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply the policy Unrelated subjects with shared names has "Churches named for St. Dunstan" as an example of what not to do. How is "Temples named for Zeus" any different? Laurel Lodged (talk) 11:25, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Unlike Catholic churches which are all dedicated to the worship of the same Christian God regardless of their name, these Greek temples are different sects worshipping different gods, so the categorization is very much a matter of reigious practice, not of mere naming. --Paul_012 (talk) 16:15, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Temples dedicated to the worship of Zeus are dedicated to the same god - Zeus. Since they are physically separate temples and the only thing that they share is their dedication to the same named deity, then the above rule covers this situation.

    • Sorry, I don't know how I can better explain this. You're claiming that the religious practices of the temples are mere names. That's the mistaken notion. It's like claiming that all Anglican church categories should be deleted because they're just churches named "Anglican church", etc. --Paul_012 (talk) 17:15, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • You say "it is a subcategory to the usefull category "Category:Temples by deity"". If that is true, then it is also true for Category:Churches by Patron Saint which is also parented to Category:Temples by deity. Your objections @Paul 012: are therefore contradictory.

    • (1) I wasn't the one who said that, and (2) sorry, but I can't quite tell if you're being obtuse on purpose. I don't have any further responses. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:21, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Follow-up to recently renamed "European monarchs" > "Category:Monarchs in Europe" etc. per WP:C2C. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 09:08, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Note: the reason why Category:Oceanian rulers, Category:North American rulers and Category:South American rulers are not nominated here, is because each of them is currently a WP:SMALLCAT, and being proposed for downmerging. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 09:19, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: None of the articles in it appear to be Uyghur sub-ethnic groups. I was reviewing the articles in the category and removing them as I did if it didn't appear that they were sub-ethnic groups of Uyghurs and noticed that this seemed to apply to all of them. For the purposes of review, the articles I removed were Taranchi, Äynu people, Dolan people, and Yugurs. ~Cherri of Arctic Circle System (talk) 06:15, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This should be renamed to plural. Some subcategories are already renamed (German dadaists‎), others need a rename (ex. American dadaist‎, Italian Dadaist‎ - that one is even pointlessly capitalized). This should be a non-controversial technical request, I think...
