The result of the discussion was: rename. MER-C 16:52, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale:
MOS:GNL prefers gender-neutral language. There's an exception for environments which were known to be all-female, but I'm not sure it applies here. According to Women in the United States Coast Guard, women did serve in the USCG during WWII, so it's unclear to me all the people on board all the ships currently in this category were men. But presumably this category could also include ships from later eras when crews became generally co-ed, as well as ships in the future since there's no time scope in the category name. -- Beland (talk) 19:41, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply

Nominator's rationale: delete per
WP:SMALLCAT, apart from the eponymous article there is only one spin-off article. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:45, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply

  • Fair enough. Meanwhile a few more Vyborg articles have been added to this category with a very loose relationship with the castle, not providing any good reason to keep the category. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:13, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

But what about buildings in the Untied Arab Emirates? --Orange Mike | Talk 19:13, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Lugnuts: Could you then also correct the category link in the articles and subcategories? Marcocapelle (talk) 21:16, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle: - Done. Apologies for that, I was certain a bot would auto-move the pages. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 08:02, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
