Category:Converts from atheism or agnosticism
- 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. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 21:06, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: merge (or reverse merge), it is unclear how these two categories are different from each other. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:54, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. Omnis Scientia (talk) 20:33, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- Support merge. I think that converts from FOO is supposed to model other religion converts categories. I'd be interested in anyone from the religion/athesist categories chiming in in case we're missing something. Mason (talk) 02:07, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep It's part of an overarching category sceme with a certain logic. Former Fooians can become converts to some other religion, e.g. Barism.
- But if the new religion or lack thereof of the former Fooians cannot be determined, we cannot diffuse them to a subcategory called converts to Barism from Fooism.
- Or, it may be that a former atheist or agnostic has embraced some form of theism, but not converted to a specific institutionalised or traditional form of it. Category:Converts from atheism or agnosticism is a containercat that currently only allows us to diffuse former atheists and agnostics as converts to Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism. But of course, those are far from the only options on the 'market', so to speak.
- I think this indeterminacy, as well as lack of options to diffuse to, is what requires these categories to remain separate. (Honestly, I understand where the idea to merge them comes from, and I had to think for quite some time before figuring out why I had a hunch that it might not be a good idea, and writing this down haha). NLeeuw (talk) 17:29, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- PS: A good example of a former Fooian whose current religion or lack thereof cannot be determined is Wesley Snipes. Raised as a Christian, converted to Islam, then left Islam, and we don't know what he considers himself these days. The default assumption may be that he is therefore an atheist or agnostic these days, but no RS says that, so such a conclusion is OR.
- Similarly, there has been quite a lot of controversy around Antony Flew, a life-long atheist who appears to have embraced some form of theism just before he died and co-wrote a book titled There Is A God with a Christian. That Christian co-author has claimed that Flew converted to Christian theism just before he died, and that the book is "evidence" of Flew's wholehearted, sincere embrace of the Christian religion. Meanwhile, several atheists came out and called foul play, alleging that the co-author put words in Flew's mounth in order to construct a deathbed conversion story that is really convenient for propaganda purposes, and that Flew seems to have not embraced Christianity specifically, but a more general vague theism. Who can say? Flew is not there anymore now to explain. That's why he is in Category:Former atheists and agnostics, but not in Category:Converts to Christianity from atheism or agnosticism, as his religious views just prior to his death cannot be precisely determined, and thus diffused.

- Oppose
or widen the scope of the merge. The category Category:People by former religion has quite a few categories in it, including this one, of people by former religions or former non-religion. If we merge this one it would make sense to merge all of them. However, I feel like both categories are useful, as "Convert" categories show what they converted too, while the "Former" categories (which include the Converts as a subcat) are for those where the conversion "destination," for lack of a better word, is unknown. Relinus (talk) 15:28, 10 June 2024 (UTC)- It's also worth noting categories like Category:Converts to Christianity, or Category:Converts to Islam, etc. all have many subcategories named "Converts to ____ from ___" which include the subcategories of Category:Converts from atheism or agnosticism, namely Category:Converts to Buddhism from atheism or agnosticism, Category:Converts to Christianity from atheism or agnosticism, Category:Converts to Hinduism from atheism or agnosticism, Category:Converts to Islam from atheism or agnosticism, and Category:Converts to Judaism from atheism or agnosticism. It's not clear how this would be dealt with in the merge proposal. Relinus (talk) 15:55, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Well said. You explain some of what I was trying to say better than I could. NLeeuw (talk) 17:30, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- I do not understand the logic. Of course there are people who do not fit a "converts to" subcategory deeper in the tree. But how does it matter whether these people are in a general "converts" category or in a general "former" category? They are both general categories. In terms of widening the scope of the nomination, I am definitely planning to follow up with sibling categories if this goes ahead. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:59, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Because the discussion is on merging the convert/former categories into one category even though they are both needed for the reasons stated above, namely that, as you say, "there are people who do not fit a 'converts to' subcategory deeper in the tree" but who would still fit into the "former" category. Since every religion/non-religion has both a "former" category and a "convert" subcategory, removing one or both for only atheism/agnosticism doesn't make sense. You would need to do the same for all religions, ie. merging Category:Converts from Buddhism and Category:Former Buddhists, etc. (That was what I meant by widening the scope of the merge, however, I would actually oppose that too, since it doesn't make sense either.) Relinus (talk) 19:40, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Relinus: until your bracket we seem to agree. I already mentioned I will do a follow-up nomination for all religions if this goes ahead. I do not understand why within the brackets you suddenly jump to a different conclusion. Why doesn't that make sense either? Marcocapelle (talk) 05:39, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

- 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. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 21:06, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Jurists from Denmark–Norway to Category:Norwegian jurists
- Nominator's rationale: Non-defining for the only person in here. Extremely small category with only 1 person, who doesn't have any mention of Denmark–Norway in the text. I urge the category creator to stop making categories that only have one person in them. Mason (talk) 22:38, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. Omnis Scientia (talk) 22:58, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Smasongarrison and Omnis Scientia: meanwhile there are 14 articles in the category. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:39, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Marcocapelle, if the articles are correctly added then I will withdraw my original vote. Omnis Scientia (talk) 09:30, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Withdraw. The articles seem to be correct, and the creator of the category didn't seem to remove defining categories in the process. Mason (talk) 12:20, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: split as nominated. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 21:08, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Propose splitting Category:Arab businesspeople to Category:Asian businesspeople and Category:African businesspeople
- Nominator's rationale: Yet another Arab category that incorrectly conflates ethnicity with nationality. I am not opposed to the general notion of an Arab businesspeople category, but the current contents are only nationality subcategories and Khadija bint Khuwaylid. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 22:08, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

- Propose
mergingsplitting Category:S.L. Benfica (table tennis) to Category:S.L. Benfica and Category:S.L. Benfica sportspeople- Added on relisting:

- Propose splitting Category:S.L. Benfica (volleyball) to Category:S.L. Benfica and Category:S.L. Benfica sportspeople
- Propose splitting Category:S.L. Benfica (handball) to Category:S.L. Benfica and Category:S.L. Benfica non-playing staff
- Added on relisting:
- Propose
- Nominator's rationale: Only two articles. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:33, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- Merge No evidence that it can be expanded. Most other subcategories are similarly small and should also be merged. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 02:24, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- Because of WP:SEPARATE, shouldn't the small categories be split between the parent and a new subcat Category:S.L. Benfica sportspeople? – Fayenatic London 08:51, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- Sure Seems reasonable. Thanks. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 10:40, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- Of cpourse. That would also clear out most of the other small sport subcats for this club. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 16:08, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- OK. A few countries have precedents for such categories by club (not only by sport), e.g. 4 out of 9 within Category:Sportspeople in Turkey by club or team. – Fayenatic London 20:03, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

- Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page discussions. GiantSnowman 20:25, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose as suggested. Sorry guys but you have really got the wrong end of the stick here. S.L. Benfica is a PRIMARYTOPIC, referring to the football/soccer club ONLY, and Category:S.L. Benfica relates to the football/soccer club only. Therefore there should be no merge from other sports into Category:S.L. Benfica or Category:S.L. Benfica non-playing staff (which, again, only relate to football). Instead, we need to create a new category (something like Category:S.L. Benfica sections, and merge into there. Having Category:S.L. Benfica sportspeople as a paren category also makes sense. GiantSnowman 20:30, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Thoughts on GiantSnowman's proposal?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 14:58, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Merging was a good idea anyway. Possibly to Category:S.L. Benfica sections, as GiantSnowman says. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:09, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Merge as per GiantSnowman. No opinion on the target. — Qwerfjkltalk 15:47, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
- Let's get this closed. I am going to start by asking a clarifying question of GiantSnowman: am I correct that you would address the WP:SEPARATE issue by merging to Category:S.L. Benfica sportspeople (for the bios) and Category:S.L. Benfica sections (for the non-bios)? (Or, put differently, that Category:S.L. Benfica sportspeople is for players of all sports, of which Category:S.L. Benfica footballers would continue to be a subcategory?) Thanks, HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 16:42, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- @HouseBlaster: correct. GiantSnowman 08:25, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Fayenatic london and LaundryPizza03: does this proposal work for you? HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 18:26, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- @HouseBlaster: correct. GiantSnowman 08:25, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- That sounds reasonable for this multi-sport club. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:28, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 02:39, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Mosques completed in the 620s (4 P) to Category:Religious buildings and structures completed in the 620s and Category:7th-century mosques

- Propose merging Category:Mosques completed in the 970s (2 P) to Category:Religious buildings and structures completed in the 970s and Category:10th-century mosques
- Nominator's rationale: merge, sparsely populated category tree, many decade categories do not exist at all, not the least because exact dates are often unknown. It will become a lot easier to navigate between mosques articles when they are moved to century level. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:03, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

- Keep the project should not have been unilaterally redirected. It was tagged inactive, which is good enough, it can be linked to WikiProjects History/Geography etc in a hatnote.

- Keep for the same reasons as its companion template at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Colonial Empires/Userbox/CEBASICBOX. @Rich Farmbrough: This was not a unilateral redirect. It was discussed and agreed beforehand at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_History#Merge_inactive_history_WikiProjects.

- No problem. The "inactive" status can be changed to, I think, defunct. I'm not sure that these should be lumped into History. Dates was more of a MoS project.

- Read the Encyclopedia of the Founders and Builders of Israel by David Tidhar. This category is a gold mine of information. It will help numerous people interested in studying the development of the state of Israel. These are the pioneers. Dag21902190 (talk) 03:19, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

- Could you cleanly define it in one sentence for me? Categories are meant to be fairly self-evident: if you need to write an article to fully flesh out your definition, it might not be a good category.

- “Pioneers” are people who are among the first to explore or settle what becomes a new country or area. For example, a colonist/colonizer. Just because you interpret the term as adulation, doesn’t make it adulation. Best regards. I deleted the additional summary because of what you said. Dag21902190 (talk) 04:36, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

- Unfortunately that tends to be how language works, as we're talking about the connotations of language.
- I don't quite understand your definition in any case, as none of the people in the category were among the first to explore or settle what is now Israel. Remsense诉 09:32, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- Do you know what a colonizer is? What do we call the first Europeans to settle and develop America? Were they the first people to explore or settle America? Obviously they weren’t. You cannot take a long-used term, and pretend it can’t be applied to the very thing it defines. I hate to break it to you, but you sound like an anti-Israel shill. I understand if English isn’t your first language, but just because you interpret the word “pioneer” as adulation, doesn’t mean it should be changed. Dag21902190 (talk) 13:53, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

- None of the people in the category were among the first to explore or settle what is now Israel. Your definition doesn't work, is my point.
just because you interpret the word “pioneer” as adulation, doesn’t mean it should be changed.
- Correct: it should be changed because it's not just me. As a verb, pioneer absolutely has distinctly positive connotations; some related, more neutral verbs are colonize, settle, construct, and establish. The interplanetary space probe was named Pioneer 6 and not Colonizer 6 or Establisher 6 for a reason, I'm afraid. Remsense诉 20:57, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- It’s very clear that you don’t want the word pioneer being used because you don’t view the early settlers in a positive light. I will maintain, despite your attempt to bring in the naming of a satellite, that pioneer is the correct word to be used. American pioneers weren’t the first to settle America, yet they are defined as pioneers. All you have to do is search up the definition of pioneer on Google, and the first two examples of synonyms are “colonist” and “colonizer”. Your interpretation of the English language does not, and should not, mean you can redefine a word, because you view it as adulation. Dag21902190 (talk) 21:07, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
American pioneers weren’t the first to settle America, yet they are defined as pioneers
- There's been plenty of ink spilled about how "pioneer" is also wrong in an American context for exactly the same reason. Academic use sharply declined as a result.
- I also shouldn't have to ask you not to accuse me of behaving in bad faith without a lick of evidence, as I've given you no reason to assume my motives are anything but what I've already said they are: Wikipedia has content policies. Remsense诉 20:27, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

- Now do me a favor and look at the other 200 people on the list. It is not exclusive to Ashkenazi Jews from Ottoman Palestine. To say so would be misleading. Care to explain why you are attacking this category so hard? Dag21902190 (talk) 20:07, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- Case in point would be that 7 of the following 8 people on the list (which you purposely didn’t bring up; choosing to stop at the first 8) are not in the category “Ashkenazi Jews from Ottoman Palestine” because it doesn’t apply to them. Although they are still pioneers. What’a so hard to understand about that? This is a unique category, different any of the existing categories. Dag21902190 (talk) 20:13, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Everyone here needs to take a deep breath. This is Wikipedia. Accusing people of anti-XYZ bias or destroying hard work is unproductive and does nothing to strengthen your point. With that out of the way, there is clear consensus that this category needs to change. Whether that change is in the form of deletion or not is to be determined (hence relisting), but if it is kept we need a defined scoped and potentially a better name.

- What you fail to recognise is the benefit of creating more-specific categories. There is clearly something to gain by breaking up the immigration into the different Aliyot. It makes research more easy, and more makingful. It also puts these notable figures into the context of their immigration. Different Aliyot had different success levels, which I am sure impacted the development of these people. Regardless, it just seems to be an attempt to delete something specific, in order to overgeneralise and keep them hidden in a broad list of thousands of people.

–LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 12:51, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Category:12th-century Almohad caliphs (4 P) and Category:13th-century Almohad caliphs (10 P) are probably best upmerged to Category:Almohad caliphs, and to Category:12th-century caliphs + Category:12th-century monarchs in Africa & Category:13th-century caliphs + Category:13th-century monarchs in Africa, respectively. A subdivision by century for a dynasty that lasted just under one century and a half tends not to aid navigation very much. But I suggest that for a follow-up.
- Triple merge per my reasoning above. Thanks LP! NLeeuw (talk) 16:09, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
