| Church building back again |
rename Category:Former Roman Catholic churches in the United States to Category:Former Roman Catholic church buildings in the United States. For the rest, no consensus leaning towards Keep, as there is no proposal for a replacement parallel category name within Category:Christian organizations (although Local church could be a lead article to follow). The original decision at the top level in 2008 was explicitly not intended to be carried down all the way to the local level, and there is clearly not a current consensus to do so. If the supporters of the "church buildings" hierarchy (parts of which I have also helped with), or dual hierarchy proposal, have addressed the comparison with Category:Synagogues, or for that matter Category:Hospitals which fits just fine within both Category:Buildings and structures by type and Category:Medical and health organizations, then I missed it. (For reference, see also recent discussions at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2012 January 22#Category:Church buildings in the United States by state and the following section.) – |

But the commenters are right that the subcategories of this category are a complete mess, and they should all be rethought and possibly purged or deleted.

| Category:Hong Kong expatriates in the People's Republic of China |
no consensus. This discussion was procedurally difficult, because of the nominator's mistaken claim that the category was created by a sock, and the discussion was joined by a number of accounts whose credentials were questioned by others. These procedural arguments somewhat overshadowed the substantive discussion, but on both sides of the debate there were solid arguments about whether to treat a current Hong Kong person in China as an expatriate. Given Hong Kong's special status within China, that point merits further consideration to clarify the relevant facts. There was also a question raised about the utility of a category HK expatriates in China during the period of British rule, which is as much a matter of Wikipedia categorisation practice as of substantive facts, and that point also does not seem to have been resolved.
Editors may wish to try to clarify some of the facts (and test a few interpretations) in WikiProject discussions before any further CfD proposals. Some such clarification might increase the chances of reaching a consensus in a future debate |

| Category:Old Ilkestonians |
Renamed. Based on the comments I did the Google search linked below and dropping Wikipedia. This returned 58 hits, some of which are based on Wikipedia so the real number is lower. It was interesting that Google tried to return results for "Old Aylestonians" in one of my queries. In any case, results for OLD ILKESTONIANS II Football Club and Old Ilkestonians Football Club were included. So it not clear how common this name is for alumni of this school, but for the UK, 58 hits is not a lot. As to the nomination itself, the opposition to the rename seem to be based on the fact that the Old Fooians form is used in other places and is accepted as valid. That is correct, but the nomination pointed out specific reasons why this one should be changed. I did not see any opposition to the logic in the nomination, other then that it was a part of an ongoing effort to eliminate the Old Fooians structure. I don't know if that is a valid charge, but that is not in and of itself a reason to override consensus supporting the change |

Renamed noting that the oppose opinions mostly did not seem to be about the ambitiousness of the current category. There was no support for the alternative Category:Old St Edwards (Oxford) that was proposed. If someone believes that there would be support for that option, it can be readdressed as a new nomination. However I'm not sure it would gain consensus |

| Category:Traditional logic |
Rename; revisit if the main article is changed. There's a universal feeling the category and main article should have the same name, with the opposition to the proposed move based on the view that the article should be renamed. The place to settle article names is Requested Moves and categories should not be deliberately kept at different names as a back door alternative |

Rename to "Year in French Dahomey/the Republic of Dahomey", keeping redirects from both other options. There's a mixture of feelings on this one because the country has had multiple names over the years but the weight of feeling is that the categories should match the name of the country at the time. Note that the Dahomey article covers the country until 1900, French Dahomey until 1958 and Republic of Dahomey until 1975 |
