- Nominator's rationale: "Which" is better than "that". Dr Salvus 18:59, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose: @Dr Salvus, see English relative clauses#That or which for non-human antecedents - "that" should be used. ― Qwerfjkltalk 19:24, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support renaming. "Which" is correct in this case. Central and Adams (talk) 02:09, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: delete, Dahomey cannot be an establishment in Dahomey. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:36, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:17, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete The article Dahomey is already in Category:1600 establishments in Africa, so no upmerge will be necessary for this category. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 08:01, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
- @LaundryPizza03: it should not be in Category:1600 establishments in Africa, meanwhile the latter category has been nominated too. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:50, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. The establishment was "in c.1600", not "in 1600", so that that categorisation is spurious. The target is thus the appropriate category. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:05, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

- Propose deleting Category:Yeoman (F) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Nominator's rationale: I can see the value of its subcat Category:Yeoman (F) personnel, but this seems to be a completely unnecessary category level. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:35, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:17, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:Women in the United States Navy. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:13, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

Category:Cultural depictions of 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: merge to Category:Works based on real people. This is following the rename of the original target category, but consensus seems to be that a merge should happen. The subcats can be dealt with in a future nom. bibliomaniac15 21:30, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Cultural depictions of people to Category:Depictions of people
- Nominator's rationale: As proposed by User:Peterkingiron in a recent discussion. Reason, presumably (as I understand it and endorse): same topic. Note some subcategories may need a likewise renaming. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:08, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support, I can't imagine how non-cultural depictions of people would look like. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:17, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- Comments: (1) the previous CFD also offered the alternative of renaming to "Works about people", which was discussed without reaching a clear conclusion. (2) The nominator says "some subcategories may need a likewise renaming" – would that not be all of them? As a precedent for speedy renaming, this discussion would carry more weight if a sample of well-populated sub-cats were tagged and added to this nomination. It might be helpful to list this sample twice, Option A for renaming/merging to "Depictions of", Option B for renaming to "Works about". – Fayenatic London 11:12, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Fayenatic london Some. Most. Not all, Category:Works based on real people seems fine. And I strongly prefer "Works about" than "Depictions of", since as noted before, we have Category:Works but not Category:Depictions. Btw, after a merge, this really needs to be renamed to Category:Works about people. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 13:47, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- Oh, I see, so this is just a merge of an apparently redundant layer, and the renaming to "works about people" can be considered later. OK, the sub-cats can be left until then, presenting those two options for renaming in a full nomination. (I had wrongly assumed that the subcats would be speedily renamed following this CFD.) Further note: other Wikipedias have the same duplication, see d:Q7468397 and d:Q8374245; I'm willing to do follow-up work on those. – Fayenatic London 16:22, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Fayenatic london Thank you. I do support fixing the subcategories, but one problem at a time (also, I don't know which gadget to use to do mass nominations, so I stick to one-by-one, usually). PS. You, and everyone else, is welcome to check Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Culture#Naming_of_articles_in_Category:Topics_in_culture:_time_for_consistency?, which is somewhat related.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗plicit 13:22, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- I agree on having them ultimately in Category:Works based on people, so the only hesitation I have is a matter of procedure: shouldn't we discuss the renaming of the target in a fresh discussion? But this hesitation might be too WP:BURO. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:48, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
- Comments: per Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_August_7#Category:Depictions_of_people, the target Category:Depictions of people has now been merged to Category:Works based on real people. Note that that one also has a subcat hierarchy of Category:Biographical works; this excludes fanciful stories about real people, hence there was no consensus to merge at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2019_December_5#Category:Films_based_on_real_people. – Fayenatic London 20:33, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- Comment, after the conclusion of the other merge discussion as mentioned by Fayenatic london, Category:Cultural depictions of people is now both parent and child category of Category:Works based on real people. That is a very clear signal that these two should be merged as well. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:21, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Purge; no consensus to delete. – Fayenatic London 19:13, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- Propose deleting Category:Environmental musical artists ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Nominator's rationale: Undefined and undefinable. Could be about musicians who write pieces about the environment or musicians who write "environmental music", whatever that is. Also, everything is part of the environment ... there's the built and natural environment, for a start. As for the artists added to the category, they may have written some songs about the environment but it might not make up the bulk of their output and that isn't defining for the artists concerned anyway; examples include the Beach Boys ("God Only Knows" is not about the environment as commonly understood, and ditto for Clocks by Coldplay. In all, this is far too wishy-washy to be a stand-alone category. Graham87 15:26, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
- Purge if kept, it is not defining for most articles here but e.g. John Luther Adams and Cattle Decapitation might stay. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:48, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I created this with the knowledge that a category exists for Political music groups. Also broad but applicable to some of the artists mentioned above, and others, that are affiliated with environmentalism in music. Arcahaeoindris (talk) 15:05, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Tuvan aviators to Category:Tuvan people
- Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:OCEGRS, as a non-notable intersection with ethnicity. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:35, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
- Merge per nom and likely WP:SMALLCAT. JBchrch talk 14:31, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep This person was connected with Tuva when it was an indepdent country. This is by the interaction of pilot+ nationality. That is not an OCEGRS issue, since it is nationality not ethnicity, and small cat does not apply to splitting out Category:Pilots by nationality, so this is acceptable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:45, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- The Tuvan People's Republic was recognized as an independent country by only two other countries. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:35, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

- Merge per SMALLCAT,
probably full upmerge. Tuva was a Russian protectorate until 1921 then independent; then absorbed by USSR, becoming a member of Russian Federation, which is still its status. Tuvan people is well populated and relates to a polity that has long existed, contrary to what Marcocapelle suggests. No need for a wider upmerge as he is already in Soviet aviators.

Category:Poetry by nation or language
- 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: split Category:Poetry by nation or language, rename Category:Poetic form by nation or language to Category:Poetic forms by language bibliomaniac15 04:00, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Poetry by nation or language to Category:Poetry by nationality or language
- Propose renaming Category:Poetic form by nation or language to Category:Poetic form by nationality or language
- Nominator's rationale: "By nation" is not consistent with current category hierarchies that are by country, nationality, or ethnicity. Nationality seems to be the best fit here, cf. e.g. Category:Poetry books by nationality. – Fayenatic London 18:56, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Agree with nom that we do not use "by nation" elsewhere. I would slightly favour "by country" (only writers have a nationality) and would suggest splitting too (by country/nationality versus by language). Marcocapelle (talk) 05:54, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- Not only people – culture has nationality, as it is retained even in diasporas. Therefore the national categories for literature and other cultural forms are named using nationalities rather than country names, see Wikipedia:Category_names#Socio-cultural_topics. Despite this, the parents use "by country" e.g. Category:Literature by country, so I accept this alternative. Revised proposal:
- Propose splitting Category:Poetry by nation or language to Category:Poetry by country and Category:Poetry by language
- Propose renaming Category:Poetic form by nation or language to Category:Poetic forms by language
- – Fayenatic London 11:47, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- I have no gripe with nation-->nationality. Because of the fuzzy overlaps of culture/nationality/language, I feel it's best to keep the category a little vague. In other words, "country" may be too limiting: this would banish, say, "Andalusian poetry" or "Flemish poetry", should such articles be desired, whereas the slightly vaguer "nationality" would allow them in with (what I see as) their siblings. Similarly splitting into 2 categories (nationality versus language) may unnecessarily bring technical and political disputes into a category that is better judged while squinting. Cheers. Phil wink (talk) 13:31, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- I can not see how country would be limiting: Andalusian poetry fits perfectly well in Spain, Flemish poetry fits in Belgium. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:25, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:Chinese list of cults to Category:Chinese cults

- Nominator's rationale: Wikipedia:Category names § Visual arts recommends "[type of works] by [Artist]", e.g., "Paintings by Foo", but the categories listed above are (I think) the last remnant of an earlier style which used "[Artist] [type of works]". The proposed category names are closer not only to their parent category Category:Paintings of the Madonna and Child but also to their "Paintings by [artist]" parent categories and, in seven out of 16 cases, to the parent articles on the artists. Ham II (talk) 09:08, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Rename all per nom. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:17, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

OpposeSupport renaming, would make these inaccurate as many of the paintings in these categories include other people, such as Joseph, apostles, and others. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:37, 14 August 2022 (UTC)- As things already stand sacre conversazioni (paintings of the Madonna and Child with other saints) by these artists are in the relevant "Madonna"/"Madonna and Child" category in this list, plus the relevant categories for the other saints – so the Ansidei Madonna is in Category:Raphael Madonnas, Category:Paintings depicting John the Baptist and Category:Paintings of Saint Nicholas. There would be nothing inaccurate about calling the first category "Paintings of the Madonna and Child by Raphael" instead; the other saints are covered by the other categories.
- Often the title for a sacra conversazione is not [Foo] Madonna but Madonna and Child with Saints [Foo] and [Bar] (or one of any number of variations on this). So, again, what would be inaccurate about Madonna and Child with Saints Luke and Catherine of Alexandria being at Category:Paintings of the Madonna and Child by Titian, Category:Paintings depicting Luke the Evangelist and Category:Paintings of Catherine of Alexandria?

- Nominator's rationale: Better name. A "device" makes me think of a mobile device. The two members of this category, "requested templates" and "bot requests", have nothing to do with devices or mobile devices. –Novem Linguae (talk) 03:46, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Might be merged to Category:Wikipedia requests, in its current state it is a redundant category layer with only one page and one subcategory. Otherwise support rename to clarify its purpose. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:47, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, this is also a good idea. Thanks for suggesting it. –Novem Linguae (talk) 09:39, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Merge I concur that there is no useful distinction between this category and its parent. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:17, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
- Merge. (OP changing my !vote.) I'm fine with a merge. Let's do that instead. –Novem Linguae (talk) 09:20, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
