). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 16:01, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, the parent category is nearly empty and a "series" subcategory is not very common. This was opposed at
WP:CFDS where it was nominated for C2F which obviously does not apply. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:51, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply

The result of the discussion was: soft rename.
(non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 18:06, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply
]
Nominator's rationale: Match categories with {{
WP:TPN). I also think we should change with missing to simply missing, as the former construction is a little awkward. HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 16:47, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply

No objections to the unknown parameter category renaming. Thanks for the talk page notice leading me here. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:19, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 22:01, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Finishing the tidying up of these climbing/mountaineering categories and want to align their naming with the others, such as Category:Works about climbing and mountaineering. Aszx5000 (talk) 15:45, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 22:01, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Finishing the tidying up of these climbing/mountaineering categories and want to align their naming with the recently renamed others (such as Category:Works about climbing and mountaineering). Should also add the term "journals" here as there are several 'mountaineering journals' contained in this category. Aszx5000 (talk) 15:44, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:1890 establishments in Malawi

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: rename (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 22:09, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: "YYYY establishments" categories are supposed to follow the name the place had at the time, not the name it has now, so "Malawi" is an anachronism in these years. (In addition to these, I also found a couple of siblings where "YYYY in the More Appropriate Name for that Year" already existed, so I've simply redirected those accordingly -- but in the cases batched here, the appropriate "British Central Africa Protectorate" or "Nyasaland" category doesn't already exist yet, so the Malawi one would need to be moved.) Bearcat (talk) 14:16, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am the creator of the categories and I agree with the above renaming proposal as it makes more sense. Tumbuka Arch (talk) 14:39, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 16:04, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: There is no such container category for other continents, and there is no valid reason to make an exception for Africa. All these categories are already included in the Category:People of African descent tree through categories like Category:Asian people of African descent and Category:European people of African descent, among others.

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 16:01, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete per
WP:NONDEF. No other shadow (i.e. opposition party) ministries in any country has categories like this. Omnis Scientia (talk) 12:07, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 16:03, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Dual merge. This is a
WP:OCNARROW Mason (talk) 02:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply
]
Dual merge per nom. Omnis Scientia (talk) 11:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dual merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:53, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I created this category. It is worth noting that it is not intended for restauranteurs who run restaurants physically located on Broadway in NYC, but instead for those who run restaurants which cater to and are frequented by "Broadway people" - actors, directors, theatre-goers, etc. As such, it is a rather specific list, and I think it has some value that would be lost if it was eliminated. OTOH, I created a bunch of these categories a while back and some of them have been eliminated already for similar reasons, by editors who didn't see the point in special-casing "Broadway".Brianyoumans (talk) 20:19, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • We do not even have restaurateurs categories by U.S. states or cities. By state would be acceptable though. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:19, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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 (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 18:06, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: From the hatnote, If you do not find what you are looking for in here, try the parent category Category:Wikipedia utility templates or one of its other subcategories. The distinction between these categories is unclear, and this one may need to up-merge. Either they need to merge (which is probably the easiest), or we need to come up with a clear distinction between the two (which will be a pain to put into effect, unless there is some preexisting distinction that is not clear to me). HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 02:12, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge. What does "function template" even mean? jlwoodwa (talk) 05:45, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
