renominating for Speedy renaming. At the time I proposed this, there was no dominant category form. Now only "People educated at (X)" exists as a non-"Old" form in the UK categories. No one has supported the "-ae" version, so I think these can safely be treated as noncontroversial outliers now |

no consensus to rename to a particular scheme. In this discussion, people want some sort of change, but there is no agreement as to what. It is unclear that this level of specificity is needed, but if it is desired, then a previous discussion clearly preferred the extant form, and specifically did not endorse the nominated format. There is also no consensus to use two forms of the word "Jew" in each category name. A separate nomination can be started on the Persian/Iranian issue if the nominator desires |

Move as proposed. That's not necessarily the conclusion of this specific discussion (which was complicated and confused by parallel concerns about ongoing discussion of "former", "converted", "established," etc.), but when the opinions expressed in this discussion are considered in the context of other contemporaneous CfDs like the one for 15th century R.C. churches and the resulting category move, the "move" !votes are the only ones that still make sense |

rename. I'm just going to ignore some rules and process this right away. From observing what's been going on, it's clear that the category system for South Sudan is going to get really messy really fast if we don't convert the existing Southern Sudan categories sooner than later. And in any case, I don't think there's any prospect of the proposal not succeeding. Some of the subcategories that use "Southern Sudan" may be able to be speedied, but others should probably go through a full CFD to decide on the correct name, eg, Category:Southern Sudan people. |

For now it's best to follow the parent category but a further nomination would allow the other categories to be considered as well |

Rename to Category:Tours, France but revisit if a better form can be found. There's a pressing need for disambiguation and no support for the current title but this one is very tricky because several diggerent naming conventions intersect and both the main article Tours and Category:Cities in France offer little help. However I note Brest is at "Brest, France" and that seems the only other case in metropolitan France so that predent helps break the tie |

This one may have to remain a mess for now. The point about "and" vs "or" is relatively straight forward so I'll put that up for a rename. "Types of horse(s)" vs "Horse types" has some opposition and would need a separate discussion |
