COMMENT Some of these categories included are painted with a broad brush and the renaming is insensitive to the original intent of the category. On that grounds, I would oppose but I only have one dog in this fight. Specifically: [[Category:Germans in New Jersey]] isn't "German-American" by any stretch. It's a collection of sites and locations connected to Palatine German settlement in the northwest of the state in the 18th century (1709 to 1780/1790, roughly). It should be renamed to [[Category:Palatine German settlement in New Jersey]] or something appropriate and similar. The current proposed move to [[Category:German-American culture in New Jersey]] lacks precision vis-a-vis given the nature and intent of the category and quite frankly, I fear the nominator has probably made this mistake throughout the list of proposed changes. Please review each before unwise moves get discovered later. But on the basis of [[Category:Germans in New Jersey]], I oppose.-- ColonelHenry ( talk) 04:50, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
I'll accept an edit or new name for the category. SunDevilKnitter — Preceding unsigned comment added by SunDevilKnitter ( talk • contribs) 02:08, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
