Category:12th-century women rulers
- 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: Split It's quite clear from both this discussion and others on other days that despite one person (who !voted twice) vociferously disagreeing, they have failed to convince any of the other participants and hence there is a consensus to split this tree. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:52, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Nominator's rationale: This better describes the lives of these medieval women. I'm suggesting a split into no fewer than 9 new categories. Follow-up to Category:5th-century women rulers (Split), 2nd-century BC women rulers (Split), 3rd-century BC women rulers (Split), and 4th-century BC women rulers (Split). The "6th-century women rulers" CfS closed as "Split" as well; the "7th-century women rulers" CfS, the "8th-century women rulers" CfS, the "9th-century women rulers" CfS, the "10th-century women rulers" CfS, and the "11th-century women rulers" CfS are still ongoing.

Currently non-viable categories and doubtful cases

- Constance of Antioch. Recommend: Princess regnant, but princess consort also acceptable
- Melike Mama Hatun. Anatolian beylik. Recommend: Princess regnant, but queen regnant also acceptable
- Duchesses regnant (2)
- Doubtful cases

- For categorisation purposes, I count (pun intended) margravines, landgravines and viscountesses as "countesses". Two women were princess regnant and two were duchess regnant, but that's not enough for a new separate category for the time being. I recommend classifying them as "consort" for now, and also putting the duchesses regnant in Category:Duchesses regnant. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 14:05, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

- Nominator's rationale: WP:NARROWCAT. Essentially same scope, and many of the same subcategories already. Notably, the "main article" Germanic history already redirects to Germanic peoples, so this is almost a WP:C2D. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 23:27, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- As one would expect Category:Germanic peoples to be primarily a set category with peoples in it, it may make more sense to upmerge Category:Historical Germanic peoples to it. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:50, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- One could. But that's not what this nom is about. Perhaps a good idea for a follow-up, but I believe it has already been rejected a few months ago. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 06:50, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- I tend towards opposing, the merge would result in an odd setup of Category:Germanic peoples with lots of subcategories in it that aren't about a Germanic people. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:42, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Who says it should be about individual Germanic peoples (groups)? The subcategory Category:Historical Germanic peoples already serves that role, while Category:Germanic culture doesn't. That's fine. I don't see the problem. NLeeuw (talk) 20:55, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Rename (over redirect) to Category:History of the Germanic peoples - Compare to Germanic peoples. (It looks like it was boldly moved in 2018.) - jc37 14:27, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- That seems unneccessary; we've already got Category:Historical Germanic peoples for that. NLeeuw (talk) 20:56, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- As I noted in the nom above -We try to keep categories of people separate from the topic. So there is a difference between Category:History of the X peoples and Category:X peoples. So no, they are not the same. - jc37 12:56, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Celtic history
- 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 merge or rename this category in isolation, however there is a consensus for the broader restructure. Take note however, that none of the other categories were tagged. It appears from a quick glance that the restructure consists mostly of actions that could be done boldly, but if that's not the case things may need to be brought to a new CfD. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:55, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

- It is not the same, e.g. Celtic languages and Celtic nationalism do not belong under history. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:37, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- @Marcocapelle I know, but that's not what I'm proposing. ;) Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 06:46, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- I know, but then it is not clearly formulated why you are proposing what you propose and I am not sure if merging is necessary. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:35, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- @Marcocapelle Alright then let's make it clear: the Celts are history. They no longer exist. Everything we've written about them is historical. Adding a subcat called "history" is therefore redundant. You can compare it to your own recent CfM to merge Category:History of the Socialist Republic of Macedonia to Category:Socialist Republic of Macedonia. The state no longer exists; everything there is to write about it, is in the domain of history. NLeeuw (talk) 20:49, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- The category also contains stuff that still exists, I mentioned languages and nationalism before. Of course I agree that the ancient Celts no longer exist but that may merely lead to renaming Category:Celtic history to Category:Ancient Celts (over redirect) and perhaps renaming Category:Celts to Category:Celtic topics. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:24, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- I think indeed there is a modern meaning for Celtic which is not really very linguistic or technical and more based on perceived links between Ireland; Scotland; Wales, Britanny etc. It may be based on old academic ideas but I think it is now a distinct everyday concept? Andrew Lancaster (talk) 15:23, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Rename to Category:History of the Celtic peoples - Compare to Germanic peoples; or to Category:History of the Celts per Celts (which also uses Celtic peoples). I prefer setting the standard "X peoples", if we can, because there may be more of these. - jc37 14:25, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- That seems unneccessary; we've already got Category:Historical Celtic peoples for that. NLeeuw (talk) 20:51, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok, so we try to keep categories of people separate from the topic. So there is a difference between Category:History of the X peoples and Category:X peoples. So no, they are not the same. - jc37 12:56, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- It also will lead to POV discussions, e.g. would Category:History of Scotland belong under Category:History of the Celtic peoples, as it is arguably the history of the Scottish people? I'd rather prefer Category:Ancient Celts in order to avoid that. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:31, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- We can discuss a group nom of Category:Celts and its subcats to Category:Ancient Celts, if you would like, but until then, Celts would appear to be the topic, I think? - jc37 12:56, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Both of you are making good points I hadn't considered yet. I hope this isn't too long, but that's what happens when fellow Wikipedians inspire you to think very deeply.
Reasoning; you can skip this if you prefer

- This last comment by @Jc37 is making me rethink the parentage of the whole tree. One of the key problems is that the Celts as a people or group of peoples ceased to exist in antiquity, and Category:Celts are therefore categorised as Category:Ancient peoples of Europe. But as @Marcocapelle correctly pointed out, Celtic languages and Celtic nationalism do still exist. Therefore, these topics are (perhaps somewhat paradoxically) independent of Celts/Category:Celts, because they can exist without them. On the other hand, the Celts couldn't have existed without the Celtic languages; they were/are defined by those languages. (Similarly, Celtic nationalism is, if not defined by, dependent on those languages.) So I think we got the parentage wrong. We shouldn't have:
- Category:Celts > Category:Celtic culture > Category:Celtic languages.
- Just like we shouldn't have:
- Category:Germanic peoples > Category:Germanic culture > Category:Germanic languages.
- Maybe we should reverse the parentage? I'll come back to this point.
- Another question is where to put a category like Category:Celtic nationalism. The Category:Pan-nationalism tree suggests we shouldn't cross-breed it with a language (family) tree, even though as a theoretical concept and movement, language-based nationalisms like this depend on the (purported) existence of a language family. So Category:Celtic languages cannot be its parent/ancestor. (Compare how Category:Pan-Germanism is not a child/descendant of either Category:Germanic languages or Category:Germanic peoples).
- In both cases, Category:Celtic culture presents a dubious link. The fact that main "article" Celtic culture is a disambiguation page makes it all the more dubious, and seems to confirm my suspicion, namely that it is an WP:ARBITRARYCAT or WP:OCMISC catch-all. (Incidentally, I'm afraid Category:Celtic topics will also be an WP:OCMISC catch-all).
- Category:Ancient Rome seems to offer a solution, if a somewhat convoluted one, which may or may not work for Celts and Germanic peoples:
- The good thing about this tree is that the ancient people is in a separate branch of the tree than its culture and its main language. But, although we've got a Germania and a Category:Germania, I'm not sure we can say the latter should be the parent of Category:Historical Germanic peoples (because "Germania" didn't necessarily encompass their entire habitat, for lack of a better term, as Category:Ancient Rome did as a state for the Category:Ancient Romans), let alone Category:Germanic peoples (which currently actually is its grandparent rather than its child). The worse problem is that we've got no "Ancient Celtica" or something which encompassed the habitat of all ancient Celts (Gallia Celtica is only a small part of it, and the so-called "Celtic nations" are a modern concept which also encompass only a small part of the entire ancient Celtic habitat).

- Proposed restructuring
- The best thing I can come up for now is to make Category:Ancient Celtic culture the parent of Category:Celts and Category:Celtic history (similar to how it was created 10 years ago). Everything ancient in Category:Celtic culture should be moved to Category:Ancient Celtic culture. Meanwhile, everything to do with Celts (modern) and Celtic Revival, including Celtic nationalism, should be moved to Category:Celtic Revival. And we should Template:Category see also these two trees to each other, but otherwise I would keep them wholly separate. Lastly, I think Category:Celtic culture should be little more than a disambiguation category between Category:Ancient Celtic culture, Category:Celtic Revival, and Category:Celtic languages, the only thing we could put in both trees, but also in neither. The fact that the main page Celtic culture is a disambiguation page also seems to warrant a "disambiguation category".
- I think this resolves pretty much all underlying parentage issues. NLeeuw (talk) 15:36, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- What about Modern Celtic instead of Celtic revival? If it is the old type being revived then why have such a distinction? Andrew Lancaster (talk) 15:25, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Because Celts (modern) is in Category:Celtic Revival. NLeeuw (talk) 09:28, 2 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- This is a very clever solution! That would resolve the chronological inconsistencies without the need of a Category:Celtic topics. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:32, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Not sure where I should thread in this, but just wanted to note that while the Celtic language is one defining feature of the Celts, it was not the only one. They don't exist as a people due to the languaage in and ofitself, but rather as a people, in which language is one of the culture's features.
- Suggesting that the Celts only exist due to language would be like saying the Gauls only did due to language, or that the Greeks only did due to language, or the Persians, or or or. I think you get the idea. - jc37 20:17, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Qwerfjkltalk 21:17, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments - I can support the re-structure, but with 2 changes: First that History of X peoples should not be in a tree of Culture of X/X culture. They should be in a history tree. There's a difference between history and culture. Second, that I don't think Category:Gaelic culture is appropriate under Category:Celtic Revival. If anything, it probably should be directly under the parent: Category:Celtic culture. Maybe the issue is having "revival" as the parent. If the parent of one is "Ancient Celtic culture", then one would think that the parent of the other would be "Modern Celtic culture". So maybe rename/split the "Revival" cat, per Celts (modern). - jc37 12:06, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- And to be clear, as far as the original nom, my opinion has not changed - Rename Category:Celtic history to Category:History of the Celtic peoples. It's clearer and more precise. - jc37 12:06, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

- The result of the discussion was: Diffuse There seem to be a lot of different terms being used here to describe the same thing, which makes finding a consensus harder, but in the end everyone agrees that some content but not all content should be moved from this category to new categories, and this one should be kept as a parent. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:46, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Nominator's rationale: I'd still like to keep the current category, but the list of pages are, in my opinion, a mess right now. Because New Brunswick is officially English and French, it has a multitude of both English (Anglophone) and French (Francophone) high schools, so I'd like to create categories dividing the schools based on their language to better sort them out.

- Propose Deleting Category:Massey Lectures
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCASSOC and the spirit of WP:C2F, one eponymous page
- The Massey Lectures are given at Massey College which are typically published into books, so there is a well populated Category:Massey Lectures books subcategory. The only thing directly in this category are the main article and a movie, based on a book, based on a lecture. If that association doesn't sound defining the editors who wrote Payback (2012 film) didn't think so either because the article doesn't even mention the Massey Lectures. (The only real growth potential is to add the speakers, but we've consistently found that categorizing people by individual lecture is WP:PERFCAT.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:30, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, redundant category layer, the subcategory suffices. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:48, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak UpMerge to Category:Massey College, Toronto - noting that all except the film article is in the parent already. I can see it either way with the film. But since the book it was based upon was specifically written for the college's lectures, upmerging is not necessarily a bad idea, I guess. I also thought about a merge of Category:Massey Lectures books to Category:Massey Lectures, but that would fall afoul of WP:EPON. - jc37 21:48, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

- Propose Deleting Category:Holloway brooch recipients
- Nominator's rationale: WP:PERFCAT, WP:OCAWARD, & WP:OVERLAPCAT
- Suffragettes who were arrested in London were often detained at HM Prison Holloway. The WSPU gave out the Holloway brooch to recognize core members who had sentences there as part of suffrage jewellery. While these women are not defined by an automatic award, they are defined for being suffragette activists and are all already somewhere under the Category:Suffragettes tree. I previously added any category contents that were not already listified right here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. (Alternatively, if we think the underlying prison stay is defining, we could rename and broaden the category to Category:Inmates of HM Prison Holloway.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:30, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- againt delation Hello. I'm totally opposed to this proposition : what's the point to mix up "inmates of the prison" (including common law prisonners) and women celebrated by the Women's Social and Political Union, with many references (photographs), a WP article Holloway brooch and books (Elizabeth Crawford for instance : Medals and brooches presented by the WSPU, The Women's Suffrage Movement.

- Keep, not all arrested suffragettes were in Holloway, not all WSPU members were arrested. So this category is both useful and interesting. Convinced by Pierrette13's plaidoyer.--Cbyd (talk) 16:42, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:BEFORECAT. Due to the need to clarify inclusion - as illustrated above by those wishing to keep - this should be a list rather than a category, per WP:CLN. I would have said Listify, but the list apparently already exists at Holloway brooch#Recipients. - jc37 21:35, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
