(non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 18:06, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply

Nominator's rationale: Recently created category that is inherently OR, as there is nothing like consistent support in RSes for the idea that there is, was, or will be a "China-US Cold War", let alone consensus in RSs on what events are part of it. Similar to the reasons that Category:Cold War II and Category:Second Cold War were deleted (Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2019 February 2#Category:Cold War II). —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 14:54, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Talk page was obviously ignored, and I quote: “This was made in response to the Chinese category here: zh:Category:中美冷战 Twillisjr (talk) 00:00, 21 February 2023 (UTC)”[reply]
  • Keep The Chinese version has this category and if you suggest it does not comply, add the same request to that page. I believe this category is justifiable and there is enough content to suggest it exists. Twillisjr (talk) 16:01, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete What occurs on another language Wikipedia doesn't determine what happens on this one. I think this category will be appropriate when there is a sourced article about a China-US Cold War. Categories have to reflect verifiable information in articles, they just can't be original inventions even if they exist on other language Wikipedias. Liz Read! Talk! 19:17, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is the Second Cold War article that describes something like this occurring but it doesn't go by the name of "China-US Cold War". You might consider renaming this category to be in keeping with scholarship on this subject. Liz Read! Talk! 19:28, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Liz, a rename is better than a deletion. Twillisjr (talk) 00:19, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for now. Category is inherently OR. The category on Chinese Wikipedia is currently up for deletion and the Second Cold War article isn't only about China-US relations. Mucube (talk • contribs) 01:03, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for now, we can easily re-create the category when this becomes a common term in reliable sources. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:20, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question Why "China-US Cold War" but not "US-China Cold War" or "Sino-US Cold War"? Vacosea (talk) 10:46, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
