Category:Tourism in the Republic of Artsakh

[edit]
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: manual merge. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 00:59, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Because the Republic of Artsakh no longer exists, these categories should be merged into the present-day Azerbaijan. The top-level category should also be merged, as it also contains only the main article and one subcategory. It is possible that some of the pages are already elsewhere in the Azerbaijan categories — this would need to be checked manually. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 23:36, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Film series characters originally introduced in a film

[edit]
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 HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 01:53, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category of dubious utility, created just to hold a single article. I have to assume that the intended distinction here was "film series characters originally introduced in a film vs. film series characters originally introduced in other source material that a film series was adapted from", because that's the only way this makes a lick of sense -- but that isn't a useful or defining distinction, and would be an utter nightmare to try to maintain since every film character who has an article at all would have to be in either this category or an "adapted medium" sibling. We have no other "film series characters originally introduced in [type of medium]" categories that I can find. Bearcat (talk) 21:03, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Named roads

[edit]
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 HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 01:53, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization on a non-defining and unmaintainable characteristic. The category's name itself is obviously silly, because nearly all roads that exist at all have names and the few roads without names are profoundly unlikely to be notable at all -- but the usage note on the category is far more specific, identifying the category as "about the roads that are named after famous personalities", which is just a straight-up violation of WP:SHAREDNAME, and still approaches indiscriminacy anyway since a lot of roads are named after people, with it becoming very subjective whether any given person is "famous" enough to categorize the road as "named after a famous person" or not. Bearcat (talk) 20:51, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 23:21, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The idea was to create a category for eponymous roads in India.Most of the roads in India follow a standard numbering system(like NH1,2 …; SH1,2… etc) .Roads are named after people only in few exceptional cases.So the idea was to create a category solely for eponymous roads in India.But if this seems to violate any Wikipedia policy you can delete it.

The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 01:49, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Only one category about the former country of Rhodesia. Since Zimbabwe isn't a Commonwealth Realm, this category won't have any articles in it. Omnis Scientia (talk) 14:27, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 01:42, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Stub template of unclear utility. It's only used on three articles total, which obviously isn't enough to give it its own dedicated category -- so instead it just sorts the three articles directly into Category:Documentary film stubs, where it just represents duplicate categorization because all three films are also in the Category:1960s documentary film stubs subcategory alongside it, and Category:Sexuality stubs, which is too broad and overgeneralized to be a useful place to look for films. So all this is really adding is superfluous stub categories that the three films don't really need to be in. Bearcat (talk) 14:05, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can't imagine that these are fundamentally different concepts. I have tagged both categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:54, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Option 2 Main article is Historical geography, while Geographic history redirects to History of geography. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 14:19, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bengali–Assamese script

[edit]
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: partial merge as suggested by Marcocapelle. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 02:11, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: There is a single Bengali–Assamese script shared between the two languages, even though they use different alphabets. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 00:11, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong, there are multiple scripts for both languages (note the plural "scripts"), and the Bengali–Assamese script is one of these scripts used and shared by both languages (with minor differences), but there are other scripts (like Naoriya Phulo script). Look at the category content, they clearly cannot be merged as their listed scripts are not the same. They are not all the same single script. Only the Bengali-Assamese script (just named "Bengali script" in Unicode and also named "Eastern Nagari") is unified; the other scripts are distinct. As well within the "Bengali alphabet" and "Assamese alphabet" (which are relevant parts of the shared script specific to each language) are not the same (just like there are multiple Latin-base alphabets). verdy_p (talk) 02:21, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are only two articles about scripts in both categories, the rest has been added as a matter of loose association. Propose to move these two articles to the two parent categories and then delete the category. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:01, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 01:39, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename, for English speaking readers of Wikipedia the term Central Asia is more familiar than Western Regions. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:34, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, as it is in effect a "former nationality" category. The article Western Regions refers to a historical period (up to 8th century CE) as well as a geographical range. All the current member pages are from that period, and renaming to "Central Asia" would lose this. "Western Regions" is named with reference to China, and its significance for Buddhism seems to be that Buddhist monks from this region took their texts into China during that period. – Fayenatic London 08:45, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
