To be consistent with all the other categories in Category:Volcanoes of the United States. —Mike 17:48, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

- Question: Wasn't this just changed? What is the reasoning for the new rename? --Kbdank71 14:10, 22 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- These are place names. See also the old discussion at your user talk page. :-) — Instantnood 17:47, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

Ok, I'm not sure if I'm doing this exactly right, and this doesn't exactly fall under the traditional usage of the Cfd I think , but we need like some opinions to get a consensus on a matter here. The category was originally known as Category:Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 singles, but then apparently entries were removed and moved to Category:Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles for consistency. But for the sake of true consistency, articles were moved from there to Category:Billboard Hot 100 number one singles, as the parent category, Category:Number one singles does not have a hyphen.
Other charts under Category:Number one singles like Category:Japanese number one singles also do not support the usage of the hyphen. I believe the parent category Category:Number one singles (which was originally known as Category:Number One singles), was even proposed to include a hyphen when it went to Cfd, but this did not come to pass. With that in mind, I believe this this new category, Category:Billboard Hot 100 number one singles should remain as is, but without any hyphens. OmegaWikipedia 19:26, 21 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Aside from his other persistent reverting of my attempts to bring correct Wikilinking and MoS style to articles (replacing links like "N/A"), OmegaWikipedia has now made a mess of a number of categories. He originally created a number of categories containing the incorrectly capitalised and abbreviated "No. 1"; I speedily renamed them to "number-one", and he recreated his categories, switching the articles, and leaving the new, correct categories unpopulated. I then corrected them again, and I've just found that he's yet again switched the categories, this time merely removing the hyphen. I've blocked him for twenty-four hours for this, and I'n trying to clear up the mess that he's made. If the decision here is to remove the (grammatically correct and required) hyphen, then OK — and I'll do the work to transfer all the articles. Until it is properly discussed and decided, though, OmegaWikipedia needs to learn that he mustn't simply insist on getting his own way in defiance of all Wikipedia policy, guidelines, and conventions.
- This is his final warning; if on his return he continues to behave in the same way, my next step is an RfC. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 22:46, 21 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
