|
| Category:Alleged brutality by the New York City Police Department |
rename to Category:Alleged police brutality in the United States. This may not be the best name to use, but there does not appear to be a better one based upon the discussion. There is definite consensus that this category should not stay as is. Based upon the argument that "more Wikipedia articles about alleged brutality by the NYPD have been written than articles about alleged brutality by any other police force", it seems to be a better idea to go with a rename instead of merge, at least for the now |

no consensus. The discussion has yielded at least five unique proposals (rename "centres" to "centers", keep as is, rename to "Ice hockey centers from the United States", upmerge, double-upmerge), each of which has some basis in category guidelines for consistency, spelling differences, and/or overcategorisation. Additional discussion is warranted to determine whether the category should exist at all or should be upmerged; if there is no consensus to upmerge, then discussion could focus on the issue of naming. However, a renomination would probably result in a more focused discussion than a relisting. |

delete. Many of the keep arguments fall around the "but others of the same exist", which does not explain why this should be kept, just explains what else is out there. One very strong argument for deletion, or at least listification, is that you cannot watchlist what gets added or removed from a category, as pointed out by Lquilter. You can with a list. As for stability, which was another concern, it may be true that membership may be stable over spans of 5, 10, 15 years, but the category is not. In a perfect world, the category would be populated and not touched until a school gained or lost accreditation. But it is very easy to add a school to a category that should not be there, or remove one that should. A win win solution is a list, which takes care of overcategorization and accuracy concerns, and the data is still grouped together, albeit in a different form |

delete. Postdlf said it best with It's also about the worst thing you could inaccurately apply to a company article, and living people aren't the only entities that can be defamed. If we are going to categorize companies that have filed for Chapter 11 protection, it has to be done right, and there is no consensus as to what a good rename target would be. The temporary situation/difficult to maintain argument is also very strong |

Like Johnbod and C J Cowie, I suspect there may be a baby or two in the bathwater, and Arthur Rubin seems to agree when he says "although a merge may be appropriate, it shouldn't really be necessary, and there's a reasonable debate about where to merge". However, there clearly is a consensus to do something, and that something can only be to delete these categories with the exception of those nominated on 2008-03-15 |

| People from cities without states |
rename all. Since most of the regular closers (including me) have commented here, I'll close this. There are two opposition arguments here. First is the theory that people will be miscategorized if the state name is added. I don't see how the current names quell this fear either. Second is the theory that other major cities use their names alone, since no confusion can take place. The fact is, these don't. The parent categories all use the state, so their subcategories should too. The analogy to non-US cities is flawed (and based on, of all things, confusable cities like London and Paris), since states are not the same as countries. There remain about a half a dozen metropolises in the United States that do not use the state name, so this nomination may serve as a basis to reexamine those. (Note: I'm relisting Manhattan, since the correct form is not necessarily clear.) |

rename to Category:People from the Governorate of Estonia |

|
| Category:People from Lawrence, Kansashi |
speedy deleted as the by-product of vandalism which has been reverted [2]. Of course the result is identical to that of a formal category merge, but that would be too dignified a description for this particular case. — |

| Phoenix, Arizona categories |
rename all. As with other like discussions, adding the state simply means "the phoenix in arizona". It does not mean, "and also restrict to phoenix city limits". If these categories included articles "in and around phoenix", that will not change. It will just limit it to "in and around phoenix, arizona". I understand the concerns of Vegaswikian, but I think he is trying to deal with a problem that may not exist |

rename all. There is much consensus to have the category match the main article. While Riksdag is a dab page, that does not mean we cannot rename this to foo of sweden, and just create foo of finland. If consensus determines a move from parliament of sweden to swedish riksdag, this can be easily moved as well |

| Template categories whose names include "navigation templates", "navigational templates", "navigational boxes", etc |
no consensus and more importantly wrong venue. No specific category or group of categories has been nominated for renaming or deletion. Abstract discussion about naming conventions for categories of templates used in articles would be better suited to be bold and rename them all yourself if nobody is likely to have a rational objection. — |
