  • Merge for now, there is no navigational benefit. No objection to recreation of the category when there are a lot more articles about this. Many sibling categories may be nominated for the same reason. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:48, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. ]
Nominator's rationale: This category seems a clear case of
Subjective inclusion criteria, as plant flower colors are often categorized differently by different people. What is clearly a blue flower to one author is a purple flower to another writer since there is no hard division between the color hues. Additionally, almost all blue/purple flowers will also have a white form, many partially blue flowers have patterns or stripes of other colors on the flowers, and/or have different colors at different stages of development. E.g. Mertensia virginica, which in addition to being blue also can have pink or white flowers. Iris missouriensis which has flower that might be fairly called purple and has white parts on the falls between dark blue or purple veins. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 17:20, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply

Category:ROK nationalism

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 ). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete. ]
Nominator's rationale: Creation of this category is possibly restriction evasion. Wikipedia:Editing restrictions/Placed by the Wikipedia community, User:Storm598 was banned. "There is a consensus from the community to ban User:Storm598 from the topic of American politics, all eras, broadly construed."
On the other way, meaning to the catoegory is dubious and "ROK-aligned Korean nationalism" and "a nationalism which support the view: South Korea is a distinct nation with previous Korea" are not same.
Only Dawn of Liberty Party support that South Korea is a distinct nation with previous Korea. Other conservative movements support Korean nationalism and think that South Korea and North Korea are single nation but North Korean governmwnt is illegal and North Korean authorities deprive wealth of North Koreans. For example, meaning of Liberal Unification Party is Liberal Unification(자유통일), Which means Korean Unification by liberalization to rescue North Korean.
Category containing only one article is inappropriate. 대한민국 정치 (talk) 16:50, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Storm598 had a bad track record, I'm still dealing with their stuff. Using the abbreviation "ROK" is also not great ]
Delete Category:Korean nationalism already exists and if a sub category is needed it should be "Republic of Korea" rather than ROK. Editors in this area can decide if a new category is needed in the future. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 20:50, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Pointless category - contains only the eponymous page and redirects to it. * Pppery * it has begun... 15:05, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. Mason (talk) 17:01, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support, the purpose of a category is to help readers find similar articles and this category seems not to fulfill a need for that as everything in the category is a redirect to Toyota dealerships (Japan) as noted by the nom. I also cannot find any other categories for Ford, GM, or BMW. There are also very few dealership articles on Wikipedia generally since most of them lack notability. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 18:21, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support: Russia has never had dukes as part of its nobility. Furius (talk) 22:50, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support for the proposed deletion. I looked a large portion of the wikipedia articles with both "duke" and "Russian" and the one article that listed a member of Russian nobility as a "duke" looks like it may be an error of translation and the rest were "grand dukes" or were dukes in other countries like Germany. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 19:24, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
