(added latter)

Nominator's rationale: Category implies that the articles in it are confirmed war crimes. There is only article in this category. There are other categories that are more appropriate for articles of this nature (Category:War crimes in Ukraine and Category:War crimes committed by the Ukrainian Insurgent Army). Until there are confirmed and convicted war crimes this category could be abused. Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 23:27, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose renaming just the Ukrainian (and Russian) category. If this is the way to go there should be a nomination of the whole tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:40, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: I've added the rest of the tree per Marcocapelle.

  • By co-nominating the whole tree it becomes obvious that an immediate rename to army categories may well lead to a lot of errors. The article in the Albanian category is 1901 massacres of Serbs deals with a massacre that happened even before Albania became an independent country. If we need categories by army rather than by country the steps should be: 1. create categories by army as subcategories of the existing country categories, 2. (optional) nominate the country categories for deletion. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:57, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Armies are not responsible for war crimes, their governments are the ones orchestrating them. Dimadick (talk) 06:09, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Further comment -- In many cases, no one has proved that the event is a war crime. In many cases, the perpetrator may argue that their actions were justified. IN other cases, "massacres by fooland" would be a NPOV title. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:20, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep all the listed categories. There is one important distinction here. Something like
    ethnic group, i.e. Russians. In the latter case I would say "delete". Only Category:Ukrainian war crimes is indeed concerning because it currently includes only one sub-cat, Category:War crimes committed by the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, but that Army was not a state actor; the Ukraine did not exist as a state at that time.

  • Oppose it's perfectly named category, it contains crimes comitted by Ukrainian state and Ukrainian organisations such as OUN-UPA Marcelus (talk) 17:40, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep all the listed categories. I think it should be kept, if it's not confirmed then it can be mentioned in the article. -Artanisen (talk) 19:38, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 07:36, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply

Nominator's rationale: merge, trivial triple intersection between state, occupation and gender. No other American states have a women artists subcategory. See also
WP:EGRS for the limited application of intersections with gender. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:03, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Neighbourhoods in Dhaka and Category:Uttara. bibliomaniac15 05:50, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename,
Uttara (town) is a suburb of Dhaka and a populated place itself. The category contains areas within Uttara. We use the term "populated places" for cities, towns and villages. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:42, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply

Category:NHS hospitals in South East England

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: merge to Category:NHS hospitals in England. bibliomaniac15 05:53, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Arbitrary geographical category. The English NHS has been divided into regions quite a few times, but South East England has never been one of them. Rathfelder (talk) 09:42, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose: I see your reasoning but South East England is a defined region and it is useful to break up the very large category of NHS hospitals in England. Also, London is not an NHS region (i.e. there is no such thing as NHS London) but such a category still exists. Elshad (talk) 17:01, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge, this is a very unusual geographical classification. Hospitals are already geographically categorized as subcategories of Category:Hospitals in England. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:42, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • South East England is not a defined region in the NHS, and I dont think it ever has been. Rathfelder (talk) 07:33, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- A better solution would be to split the target according to the Standard English regions, which still exist though they are less used by government than they used to be. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:24, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I Think all these are categorised by county, and that is sufficient. Given that these are almost all NHS organisations it doesnt make sense to use a geography not used by the NHS. Rathfelder (talk) 21:12, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Withdrawing objection -- Categorisation by county (which would include London (defined as Greater London) seems appropriate. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:23, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: We already have Category:Marvel Cinematic Universe characters for characters in the MCU that got their own articles, and Category:Marvel Cinematic Universe character lists for the rest. There is no need to categorize comic book characters here. Besides, this category was created and deleted several times already, see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2021 November 4#Category:Characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: split. bibliomaniac15 05:43, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The category contains mostly people, but also includes a variety of important non-person articles (including legal contracts and places affiliated to the tribe). The new category (Ngāi Tahu people) would more accurately categorise people affiliated to the iwi. — HTGS (talk) 00:14, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Makes perfect sense. Technically this would not require a CfD discussion, but this split is quite a big job so I can imagine that consensus is sought upfront. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:32, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The existing category is a sub-category of Category:New Zealand Māori people by waka, iwi, hapū or whanau, one of about 84 such sub-categories, all similarly named, without the additional word people. If the change is to be made, then the whole category tree should be reorganised, for all iwi, not just Ngāi Tahu, along the lines of:
To maintain consistency, I don't think that Ngāi Tahu should be changed in isolation. Paora (talk) 08:05, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • My advice would be to start with splitting biographies to "people" subcategories and after that is finished evaluate if further splitting is needed. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:04, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with Paora. It needs a comprehensive approach. Schwede66 07:42, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I fully agree about changes for every iwi—as Marcocapelle surmised I only posted Ngāi Tahu to test for disagreement. My intention was to make the move and then repeat for each iwi in turn. I hadn’t considered further subcategories (marae, history, etc.), and planned to assess those as necessary once people were done. — HTGS (talk) 06:14, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@HTGS: No problem with that approach. There doesn't seem to be any objection, so I'd say go for it! Paora (talk) 04:35, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
