The result of the discussion was: delete ( non-admin closure) Marcocapelle ( talk) 09:18, 17 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Despite its name, the category does not contain carcinogenic substances in their own right, possibly except Heated tobacco product, and is thus misleading. Brandmeister talk 17:55, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: upmerge. The other categories suggested will have to be nominated separately; I think individual discussion needs to take place for those specific ones, at least. bibliomaniac 1 5 05:53, 25 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Dual upmerge. This is a non-notable triple intersection by nationality, gender, and profession. TM 14:22, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply
User:Place Clichy, I would be happy to support those if you nominated them.-- User:Namiba 13:16, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Post-closure notes: the merge to Indian biographers should have been done manually, since all but one of the merged pages were already in a diffusing sub-cat by century. I have also merged the members of both categories to Indian women non-fiction writers. – Fayenatic London 09:43, 25 April 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: rename both. – Fayenatic London 11:34, 24 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Organization name change in 2018, matching change in name for article. Naraht ( talk) 14:09, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply
FYI, the bulk reversion was meant to force you here to avoid out of process moves and under construction wouldn't have helped. Doing an WP:RM on the main article followed by a WP:C2D on the categories would have been optimal but that's water under the bridge. Live and learn!

Category:Wars named after non-human animals

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: delete. – Fayenatic London 11:26, 24 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: We don't normally categorize things by characteristics of their name (or one of several names) - some example CFD discussions. This category also has other problems (some of the articles aren't about actual wars, some aren't actually named after animals...). Note: I have listified the category. DexDor (talk) 13:10, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply
All right, if such a category goes against established practice but such a list doesn't, I'm fine with deleting the category and keeping the list (thanks for creating it btw). It could be argued that this element of the name's origin is just too insignificant to merit a category, at least that's what I'm getting from previous discussions. It does seem to me the list should be subcategorised from Category:Things named after animals to Category:Lists of things named after animals. Greetings, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:50, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply
The list has been de-prodded by another editor. DexDor (talk) 10:53, 19 April 2020 (UTC) reply

People from Sheffield

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: keep. Note: five have already been speedily deleted under WP:G7. – Fayenatic London 11:21, 24 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Merge all into Category:People from Sheffield. Someone from Sheffield will usually have lived or gone to school in many sub-areas; being born or having lived in a particular area is not defining; 'from Sheffield' is enough. Several of these are recreations of categories merged at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2009_June_28#Category:People_from_Sheffield_(district). Meadowhead has no article, Longley is a dab page, most have 1 or 2 articles. Oculi ( talk) 09:30, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • The same could be said of many cities. Cities expand and engulf the surrounding villages. But I cant see why we would treat Sheffield differently to all the other cities and their component districts. Rathfelder ( talk) 22:19, 9 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Sheffield is probably large enough that it makes sense to at least have some suburbs with people from categories for example Category:People from Ecclesfield has 25 articles and is currently a CP. The problem indeed might be that there aren't enough people to merit a category for some or boundaries are hard to define. There are some boundaries listed here but note that since 1974 the former CB has been unparished so only ward boundaries exist and they tend not to be stable for long.

Category:Commercial spaceflight

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: no consensus to merge (nor, for that matter, to reverse the hierarchy).– Fayenatic London 11:16, 24 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: The commercial spaceflight and private spaceflight are same thing. Soumyabrata stay at home wash your hands to protect from coronavirus 09:15, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: rename. – Fayenatic London 11:11, 24 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Proposing a scope change to include all prototype vehicles of SpaceX rather than the suborbital prototype rockets of SpaceX. Soumyabrata stay at home wash your hands to protect from coronavirus 09:08, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: merge/delete per expanded nom ( non-admin closure) Marcocapelle ( talk) 08:20, 13 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Pointless intermediary category. It currently contains only one article, but even if it has the full set it would still serve no purpose. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 20:01, 23 March 2020 (UTC) reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Marcocapelle ( talk) 07:57, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply

Category:Steamboats built at Dockton, Washington

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. – Fayenatic London 11:05, 24 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCLOCATION
There are no other city of construction subcategories under Category:Steamboats which would still be fine if these two locations were known for specifically building steamships. Neither one was though: Dockton had one significant shipbuilder who built a variety of types of ships and Tacoma was a major shipbuilding center where, again, a variety of ship types were built. This doesn't seem like a viable category tree to start because steamboat construction was very decentralized and we have articles on steamboats built in dozens of cities/towns just in Washington state alone. The Dockton, Washington article already listifies the first category and the second category will remain categorized under Tacoma. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 00:18, 5 April 2020 (UTC) reply
