This matches the existing standard of "Lists of...", and "X-related" and uses "...accidents and incidents" per the category contents, and other varied subcats of
Category:Accidents. - jc3722:54, 21 August 2012 (UTC)reply
Oppose I don't see any consistency in the various accident and incident categories. At any rate I don't see any "-related" categories in the group, and omitting the phrase is better English anyway.

A relationship can mean anything. I'm also not that happy with the word "incidents", which is nearly synonymous with "event". But more to the point, the subcategories are almost entirely about accidents. For instance, the entire railroad subcategory tree uses "accidents". Therefore I propose to Rename
Category:Transport incidents to
Category:Transport accidents with an eye toward renaming subcategories in the same manner and leaving the accident list category alone. And I think the horse category needs renaming along the same lines. I'm not utterly opposed to "accidents and incidents"; I'm just not convinced that the subcategories are about anything but accidents. I do absolutely oppose the "-related" phraseology as weaselly, potentially misleading, and not the way people in the field talk about them.

Yes, because some of these incidents were not accidental. (Note the aviation subcat for eample). As for "people in the field", who? transport is a rather wide topic. which people in the field? - jc3716:19, 22 August 2012 (UTC)reply
As for "transportation", I think we're getting into an ENGVAR issue here. Transport and transportation have differences of definition in some english-speaking countries. And further, I did a quick google search, and it seems that governements prefer "transportation" (possibly to help avoid some of that possible confusion). With that on mind, I would support transportation instead of transport (per many other CfDs where we try to use wordings to avoid ENGVAR confusions, whenever possible). - jc3718:07, 22 August 2012 (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

deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
Nominator's rationale: Contested speedy: originally suggested "...by the WWE", but it was pointed out that that form is not used based on the main article. However the category still has an awkward name - and slightly ambigiuous, as based on other subcategories of
Category:Television series by studio one might assume "WWE" at a glance to be a TV station's call letters. While no other subcategories of
Category:WWE spell out "World Wrestling Entertainment", this is also the only subcategory to use "X of Y" name format - but appropriately, as all subcats of
Category:Television series by studio use "X of Y" (barring a change to "WWE television series", which would, otherwise, make perfect sense). Therefore, the name WWE should be spelled out for grammar and clarity here, I believe.
Copy of speedy nomination
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
The article says "World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (doing business as WWE, Inc.)". Did they completely change their name or just adopt a d/b/a? And if the former would "the WWE" work? -

Nominator's rationale: The idea of this category seems to be POV/original research. Note that Wikipedia has no corresponding 'fashion freedom' article; the closest equivalent,
Men's fashion freedom, was
deleted at AFD as non-notable back in 2006. Perhaps this could be turned into a category on gender-neutral clothing, and expanded to include articles such as
Bloomers (clothing) and
Victorian dress reform. But the current version, with its description 'efforts by men to gain equality in clothing', is clearly POV.

Nominator's rationale: There was never a rank called "knight grand cross" in the
Order of Pedro I. The ranks were, from lowest to highest: knight, commander and grand cross. See
this and
this (especially the latter). If you click on the second link, you'll see "A ordem consta [The order is consisted]: 1) De Grão-Cruzes [Of Grand-crosses] 2) De Comendadores [Of Commanders] 3) De Cavaleiros [Of Knights].

Nominator's rationale: Despite the hype that many engines will be built using
XNA, we still have only 1 notable included and I don't see this expanding any time soon. Parent category
Category:.NET game engines only has 2 entries (duplicating the one in this one as well). —

Keep - There are several other major XNA games engines which have been added to
Category:XNA game engines (which also aren't otherwise in the .NET game engines category), and there are other reasons why to keep, as described below: --

Some engines like
Clickteam TGF, don't target (or allow developing with) .NET languages, but just provide an XNA-based deployment/exporting option, while there are .NET-based engines like the
RealmForge Game Engine which are not built on XNA.
It's also important to keep it as a distinct category from .NET game engines considering that many engines that claim to be .NET game engines or engines with .NET scripting really only do so by providing a COM-based API (which therefore can be accessed indirectly from .NET languages, despite the engine not using or building on or simplifying use of .NET with it).
However, an XNA-based engine indicates a purely managed solution.
Also XNA game engines, to a degree, represents a set of deployment platforms (Zune and Xbox 360) and potentially a different platform than Xbox 360 traditional deployment (providing digital distribution accessible to indies, even without publishers, and development without requiring an Xbox console developer kit)
