The result of the discussion was:  Relisted at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2017 June 20#Category:Prints by Rembrand. ℯxplicit 04:33, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: upmerge, extra category layer merely hinders navigation. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:19, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It is important that the contents of Category:Etchings by Rembrandt remain categorized. Not all Rembrandt prints are in fact etchings (though they are sometimes loosely so called), so it might be better to move the actual articles up to "Prints by...".

  • Several of the articles are about groups, which will include non-etching, in whole or in part. Many of his prints, like The Three Crosses, are mixes of etching and engraving (often drypoint). I haven't looked the other individual prints with articles up (and wouldn't trust our articles on this). The wider point is that the best overall name is "prints", not "etchings", although, as I said above "they are sometimes loosely so called". The List of etchings by Rembrandt falls into this trap. It does not list the techniques, but very many of these are partly in engraving, and quite a few entirely so. Johnbod (talk) 16:41, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Generally, names of administrative divisions in countries are strong proper names and do not take a definite article. Tanzanian regions are no exception. In the specific case of Mbeya Region, see this or this, both being government publications about the region. Cobblet (talk) 05:30, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Needs renaming and cleanup - are these series that take place in the Arab world? Or are made there? What exactly is meant by the Arab world? —swpbT 18:18, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Rename or Delete (upmerging to Category:Turkish drama television series if necessary). The category creator didn't put this category in any parent categories so it's unclear what exactly they meant it to be (e.g. should it be under an Arabic-language category?). DexDor (talk) 19:42, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, they are Turkish television series and already categorized as such. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:51, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Based on what I can glean from the handful of articles in here that I just spotchecked, the purpose of the category seems to be "Turkish drama series that got picked up for rebroadcast on MBC 4 or other pan-Arabic channels". But since it's always possible for any television series in any country to be picked up by a foreign television channel for rebroadcast in any other country, that's not a WP:DEFINING characteristic but rather a recipe for extreme category bloat.

Nominator's rationale: Over-categorization. The fact persons share the first name is a WP:NON-DEFINING characteristic. – Gilliam (talk) 01:19, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
