Category:People from Histon and Impington

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 (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 20:21, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I'm suggesting deletion but actually it should probably be split to Category:People from Histon and Category:People from Impington (if Impington is large enough) if not the Impington people can be merged back to Category:People from South Cambridgeshire District. Of the 7 people 5 are Histon and the other 2 (Roger Gale (antiquary), Henry Saunders (cricketer, born 1841)) are Impington. "Histon and Impington" does not actually exist as a unit or settlement other than as a ward and as "Histon and Impington Parish Council" as the 2 separate parishes share a single parish council. The ONS BUASD that covers both places is called "Histon" not "Histon and Impington". The separate articles Histon and Impington were split again as a result of Wikipedia talk:WikiProject UK geography/Archive 25#Histon and Impington. There was a similar discussion back last year at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2021 December 15#Category:People from Amwell, Hertfordshire following a split for a placename that refers to separate places. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:01, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- The two villages have grown together to become a single populated place, but they remain separate parishes, with a significnat area of green fields between this settlement and any of its other neighbours. If not kept, split, but Impington with only two articles would have to be merged to S Cambs, which results in a loss of data. Accordingly (though aberrant), I think the best solution is to keep it. If we can get 5 Impington articles, a full split would work. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:35, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as Histon states "Over the years the Histon and the neighbouring village of Impington have grown and entwined together, to such an extent that many villagers today do not know where one ends and the other begins." At most this warrants a split, not a deletion.--Mvqr (talk) 15:17, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Not sure why this needs a specification; the category tree uses plain "orthographies". 1234qwer1234qwer4 15:17, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Fossils of Great Britain

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 Category:Fossils of Great Britain There was no consensus on Category:Fossils of the United Kingdom. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 18:23, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The fossils are not peculiar to the former Kingdom of Great Britain. Though ironically, that too is a fossil. Nor is it inherent to the island of GB. Laurel Lodged (talk) 16:07, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Laurel Lodged this category is for the fossils of the island of Great Britain, see the whole branch Category:Great Britain. The same as in case of Category:Ireland. Balkovec (talk) 16:11, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There are categories by political division, i. e. Category:United Kingdom, Category:Republic of Ireland etc and there are categories by geographical division, i. e. Category:Great Britain, Category:Ireland etc. Balkovec (talk) 16:14, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
My, my, haven't you been busy creating a whole raft of redundant category layers. I regret to inform you that your labour has largely been futile. It would have been better to have discussed the grand plan with others in the project page. Laurel Lodged (talk) 16:19, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Laurel Lodged I am always open to discussion. Let's discuss Category:Great Britain and all of its subcategories. This is better than discussing separately "fossils" and "geoparks". Balkovec (talk) 16:21, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • (continued discussion) However, the articles are categorized by countries in which individual fossiles have been found. I am open to change that fundamentally, but until then it is not desirable to only remove the UK from the country tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:54, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep GB (commented above). The present UK category doe NOT have a Northern Ireland subcategory, but is a container for GB England, Scotland and Wales. If LL's argument is right, the UK category should have a Northern Ireland. I assume there is an all-Ireland category. I am neutral on the UK category, but it might be retained as a container. If not it should be downmerged to the GB category. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:16, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose British Overseas Territories are not part of the island of Great Britain, and have no paleontological fossil relation to it. -- 65.92.247.17 (talk) 05:10, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
