Rename some articles already have things like "and customes" added into their name. The use of culture in the name seems to me to better capture the scope of what we are trying to cover.

Support per Macrocapelle. We may get other multi-national regulations in due course, in which case we can create an international regulations parent.

Support per nom. This is about one championship (the Call of Duty Championship, proper name), held in multiple years. If there were multiple notable championships (e.g. a European Call of Duty Championship, etc.), then the category would be "Category:Call of Duty championships" (plural and lower-case c). —

Nominator's rationale: This is a POV category. Iran denies that these groups like the Islamic Jihad or whatever groups are their proxies. And these groups consider themselves as a resistance movements against Western colonialism.--

Keep - this proposing statement is just a personal opinion claim, which is not a balance of reliable sources. We have a large number of WP:OR sources including reliable news networks, academia and political research institutes naming Hezbollah, PIJ and others as Iranian "proxies" - participating in respective
Iran-Saudi Arabia proxy conflict and other violent events in the Middle East
[1],
[2],
[3],
[4]. Saying "Iran denies" - is WP:IDONTLIKEIT, especially if there are no sources brought for that Iranian denial.

Do not confuse POV and RS - different things. Any way, the source you brought is just playing with definition of proxy - it says "Although Houthis are not proxies of rival Iran, Tehran is definitely a supporter of the rebels."

Of course Iran is going to support any group against any country that it is hostile to Iran either by their media or whatever. That is common sense. That doesn't mean that these groups are fighting for Iran. Like for example Hamas is fighting against Israel which most of the middle Eastern people consider it as a European invasion and Hamas consider itself as a resistance movement. Iran is a middle Eastern country and it is also against Israel that doesn't make Hamas a proxy group for Iran. Same thing can apply to the Houthis and the European-backed the Saudi--

Hamas is not so much fighting Israel now, it has been mainly fighting the
Fatah and Salafist groups for the past several years.
Hamas is now a proxy of Turkey and Qatar, but until the Syrian War Hamas had been a proxy of Iran.

Thats nonsense, Arab leaders which the Europeans support do not represent Arabs. They are dictators who were not democratically elected. All Arabs and indogeneus people of the middle East are against the European invasion of Palestine and all democratically elected presidents of Arabs are against Israel. Like
Kais Saied,
Mohamed Morsi etc. The Bolivian first indigenous president is not a friend of the European colony in Palestine. So these people are not proxies to Iran, but they share the same struggle and the same goal, they support each other but that doesnt make them proxies.--

(with some regret) delete -- The allegation that they are proxies tends to imply that the alleged proxy does not have a mind of its own and is a mere puppet. That is clearly nonsense. However that does not mean that the groups do not enjoy support (perhaps financial support) from Iran. It may be that there is a genuine category here, but a different name would be needed better to define the relationship. Perhaps
Category:Political movements supported by Iran.
