The result of the discussion was: Delete (non-admin closure) * Pppery * it has begun... 15:11, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category of dubious utility. The only contents here are a unified list of beaches in New England as a whole and a Vermont-specific redirect to Vermont's subsection of that same other list -- and even that list doesn't actually contain any articles about beaches that could be filed here, but just contains links to the parks that some beaches in Vermont happen to be located in. So obviously no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when some beaches in Vermont actually have their own articles to file in it, but a category just to hold one list and a redirect to that same list is not aiding navigation of the pedia at all.

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Temples of Shingon-shū Chisan-ha. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 16:30, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Badly named category whose only content is the Naritasan subcategory that's been listed for deletion below, which also makes it a WP:SMALLCAT. I don't know enough about the subject area to know whether it's salvageable with other content or not, so I'm willing to withdraw this if it can be, but even if it is salvageable it would still have to be renamed for consistency with Wikipedia naming conventions. Bearcat (talk) 17:58, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Bearcat not a good name, I think renaming is good, but I added a lot of entries. The sect is relatively large and has many temples. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 18:08, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Buddhist temples by deity. – Fayenatic London 15:22, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Badly-named category. I don't have sufficient knowledge of the subject area to attempt to sort out whether it's legitimate or not, so obviously no prejudice against deletion if consensus leans in that direction, but even if it's justified this name is not consistent with Wikipedia naming conventions. Bearcat (talk) 17:55, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I proposed a name change Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 20:26, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Main" and "Deity" should surely not be capitalized. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:44, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bearcat (talk) 17:55, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I also proposed a name change on this one. All will be in a Category:Temples of X format Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 20:26, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Alt rename Category:Temples of Fudō Myōō: the format "Temples of ..." is simply a matter of WP:C2C. Since all these temples are in Japan, it does not seem necessary to change Fudō Myōō (the Japanese name of Acala) to Acala. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:05, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Naritasan

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. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 16:29, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: eponymous categories for topics without the volume of spinoff content needed to justify eponymous categories.
"Naritasan" just contains the eponym and one related subsidiary, but there would have to be five things to be filed here, not just two, before a dedicated category for them was justified -- and meanwhile, "Sangō" just contains the "Naritasan" category with no other content at all, not even a head article to clarify what Sangō even is. It's categorized as "Mountain faith" and "Buddhism in [various countries]", but absolutely nothing listed in the disambiguation page at Sango offers any insight into that -- and even the Naritasan subcategory's head article Narita-san doesn't even contain the word "Sango" at all, and therefore sheds absolutely no new light on what the relationship between "Naritasan" and "Sango" would be either.
So these just aren't justified categories, if one's too small to be permissible and the other is for a concept that doesn't even have an article to explain what it even is in the first place. Bearcat (talk) 17:44, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Update: Other articles started to be added to Category:Sangō as I was typing this nomination statement out — but it still doesn't contain any article that sheds any light on what Sangō is, as the new contents are entirely a mixture of mountains whose articles still don't contain the word "Sango" and disambiguation pages that shouldn't be in articlespace categories at all. Bearcat (talk) 17:47, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed up some of the entries that do not belong. Sangō is a kind of Japanese Buddhist temple. Having -san or occasionally -yama at the end of a temple name indicates it is a Sango. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 20:09, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete (non-admin closure) * Pppery * it has begun... 15:11, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Eponymous category for a person without the volume of spinoff content needed to justify an eponymous category. The only contents here are the subject's own WP:BLP and one video game he designed, but searching his What links here doesn't suggest that any of his other games have articles to file here -- and even if they did, categorizing them this way would come close enough to the edges of WP:PERFCAT that it would probably still warrant a CFD discussion anyway. But regardless, it might be acceptable if there were five or ten things to file alongside the eponym, but it isn't needed for just one. Bearcat (talk) 17:29, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 17:24, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT which currently exists solely to hold one redirect to a section within a wider "league season" article; the only other thing that was filed here at all was a draft, which had to be removed as drafts aren't allowed to mingle with articles in mainspace categories. Obviously no prejudice against recreation if and when four or five of this team's seasons have their own standalone articles to file in it, but it's not needed just to hold one redirect. Bearcat (talk) 16:38, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The basis for the creation of categories is not "enough content to properly populate them may exist in the future" — the basis for the creation of categories is "at least five appropriate articles already exist to be filed in the category now". The content has to exist first, and then the category to group them together comes second, not vice versa. Bearcat (talk) 17:16, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
the basis for the creation of categories is "at least five appropriate articles already exist to be filed in the category now" – unless such categories are part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme ... [or it] does have realistic potential for growth, both of which apply here. BeanieFan11 (talk) 01:23, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Category:Davis & Elkins Senators football with no objection to recreation if/when a sufficient number of articles exist. –Aidan721 (talk) 20:27, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I read at SMALLCAT: Avoid categories that, by their very definition, will never have more than a few members, unless such categories are part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme ... a category which does have realistic potential for growth ... may be kept even if only a small number of its articles actually exist at the present time. (emphasis added) – Firstly, there is a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme for creating categories for college football seasons when they exist and secondly, the category does have a realistic potential for growth – the team played from (it seems) 1904 to 1961 and many of their seasons have the potential for notability – so it should be kept. BeanieFan11 (talk) 21:13, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Clearly there were a lot of seasons, the question is really if each year individually notable and sourcable enough to create a separate article (not just a redirect). I'm thinking no, but am open to being corrected. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:43, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Considering how much coverage the 1923 season received, I'm sure there's a bunch of other notable seasons (not to mention that if there are non-notable ones, they can always be merged into an article on a group of years, e.g. Davis & Elkins Senators football, 1930–1934). However, even if there's no other notable ones, the category still qualifies to be retained per the clause of SMALLCAT that states Avoid categories that, by their very definition, will never have more than a few members, unless such categories are part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme (emphasis added) – there is a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme for college football seasons. Deleting/merging season cats even when season articles exist would be unprecedented here. BeanieFan11 (talk) 01:04, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Consistency with previous discussions. Only 2 articles. The tree doesn't start until 2000. The other parents are not needed as merge targets since they are already in there. –Aidan721 (talk) 12:22, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 17:28, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: These were just renamed from a different naming pattern at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_April_16#Category:Belgium_railway_line_templates, but "in" or "of" was not raised. Within Category:Railway lines by country the national subcats consistently use "in". If these are agreed here then others in Category:Rail routemap templates by country can be renamed speedily. Note: Template:Railway-routemap must be edited to implement this, and it should be possible to simplify it once a consistent naming pattern is in place. – Fayenatic London 07:28, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
