Category:Non-orphaned talk pages tagged with G8-exempt

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 delete, so rename. – Fayenatic London 22:39, 23 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: This category isn't exclusive to talk pages. Steel1943 ( talk) 22:31, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • It is also on a few user subpages, but does that make sense at all? Marcocapelle ( talk) 05:20, 11 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete unless a process (workflow) is identified that uses this category (neither the category text nor what-links-here gives any clue as to the purpose of the category). The pages in the category are a mix of all sorts of different things (e.g. some are redirects). Maybe the template should be changed to only categorize talk pages, but who knows? DexDor (talk) 06:15, 11 July 2020 (UTC) reply
This is a maintenance category to list pages tagged with {{ G8-exempt}} when they aren't orphaned so not eligible for deletion anyway. The rename is fine IMO. Jo-Jo Eumerus ( talk) 13:22, 11 July 2020 (UTC) reply
That's a description of what the category is, but there's still no indication of what (if any) purpose it has. DexDor (talk) 14:38, 11 July 2020 (UTC) reply
It's to recognize when people are applying the G8-exempt tag unnecessarily (i.e when the main article was not deleted). Jo-Jo Eumerus ( talk) 13:05, 13 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: per WP:SMALLCAT. Contains only the head article Eskimo bowline and the image File:Eskimo-bowline.jpg. The category appears to have been created solely for the image; I added the head article. However, I have now moved the image to Commons, so the category no longer serves any purpose.

Category:European Association of Archaeologists

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. MER-C 19:07, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Propose deleting:
Nominator's rationale: per WP:SMALLCAT, and per WP:NONDEF.
The Category:European Association of Archaeologists contains only the three items: head article European Association of Archaeologists, the biog of its founder, plus the members subcat. That's too small to be any use.
The subcat Category:Members of the European Association of Archaeologists contains only one page, but could be expanded to two if the founder was moved there. But however many pages it contains, its a WP:NONDEF category. This is not a learned society where membership is distinction awarded to high-achievers. Its website says EAA MEMBERSHIP is open to all professional archaeologists, students of archaeology and retired archaeologists, as well as interested public. -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 12:33, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Category:Japhetic people

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 as nominated; revisit the wider tree if necessary Consistency has been invoked; the broader tree issues are best handled separately. Timrollpickering ( talk) 15:47, 30 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: This category is for things related to the Japheth son of Noah. The other two sons also have categories and are simply named Category:Ham (son of Noah)‎ after Ham (son of Noah) (and not Hamites) and Category:Shem‎ after Shem (and not after Semitic people). This naming should be WP:CONSISTENT for all 3 brothers. Also, there is no article Japhetic people, only a redirect. Gonnym ( talk) 10:16, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • That is a very narrow interpretation, bypassing the fact that the brothers were on the Ark and played an important role in Genesis 9. Yes, a genealogy are given in Genesis 10, but it is neither unique nor the first genealogy in Genesis. Marcocapelle ( talk) 19:59, 13 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: disambiguation. The bare title Fang is about a type of tooth, but this category is for Fang people, an ethnic group in Africa (predominantly in Equatorial Guinea). By convention, the title Category:Fang people is used for individual people of that group, so we need another disambiguator. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 09:57, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: keep. bibliomaniac 1 5 05:41, 23 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: delete, this category (surprisingly) is not part of a series by century, but even if it were it would probably not make too much sense to start the series this early. The frequent appearance of Christian religious leaders beyond clergy and abbots takes off in the 16th century at earliest. Marcocapelle ( talk) 08:50, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Oppose. Sure, @ Marcocapelle is right that Christian religious leaders outside the clergy and monasteries emerged in large quantities only the 16th century, as the Reformation took hold.
But there were exceptions in previous centuries, so the category should exist to accommodate them. -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 10:43, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Even in the 16th century there is not much beyond clergy, abbots and Category:Protestant Reformers. Besides the exceptions are still part of the x-th century Christians category so it is not like the information is completely lost. As we need to determine a subjective starting point for this tree anyway, why not start with a century that we can decently populate. Marcocapelle ( talk) 11:43, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 19:08, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: SMALLCAT. There have been a lot of discussions about this category before. But the main reason why it should be deleted is that there appears to simply not be very many films that are about hebephilia. ★Trekker ( talk) 04:53, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Marcocapelle, the Are All Men Pedophiles? title is misleading. The film is more so about hebephilia, or rather sexual attraction to adolescents/teenagers (since hebephilia is accurately defined as a sexual preference for those in the earlier stages of pubescence). But, as I've argued times before, we don't need a hebephilia category to cover one or two films. As for Lolita? I've seen discussions about whether the man is a pedophile or not...based on the strict definition of pedophilia (especially people saying that Lolita was pubescent). This source used in the Reception section for the article to categorize it as a hebepilia film states "the film was very controversial, due to the hebephilia-related content." But eh. No need to ping me if you reply. Flyer22 Frozen ( talk) 22:40, 10 July 2020 (UTC) Tweaked post. Flyer22 Frozen ( talk) 22:51, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Marcocapelle, see what Crossroads just stated above. And, above, I did cite one source from the Lolita film article. Regardless, to quote Crossroads, "all the other points against this category stand." Flyer22 Frozen ( talk) 23:01, 11 July 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) DannyS712 ( talk) 08:08, 18 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: This category was originally created by a banned pedophile and pro-pedophilia advocate on Wikipedia, once he was banned this category was deleted, but was then recreated by another user (who tried to make Commons accept child pornography images). The problem with this category is the same as most other "pederasty" categories, "pederasty" is a word that almost exclusivly refers to a Greco-Roman concept and today this is called child sexual abuse by non-fringe sources. Its also worth mentioning that almost none whatsoever of these articles even mention the word "pederasty". ★Trekker ( talk) 04:24, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per nom. Haiduc, apparently the original creator, was banned by ArbCom in 2010 for reasons that are obvious based on the ANI discussion about him. The re-creator is globally banned. Haiduc's overuse of "pederasty" was dishonest propaganda exaggerating the prevalence and social standing of practices that in today's world non- WP:Fringe sources call child sexual abuse, as explained here. "Pederasty" normalization involves purposely conflating relationships between grown males that really are part of gay history together with abusive relationships between a grown man and a young boy, and calling it all "pederasty". This category is a legacy of that effort, and many of the articles in it do not even mention the term pederasty. There is no need for this category; the articles in it can be in more appropriate categories based on what is actually discussed in each one. Crossroads -talk- 05:35, 10 July 2020 (UTC) reply
