Category:Joe & Joey Records (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: The page currently is a category redirect to Category:Insane Clown Posse; however, this is not an appropriate target. According to the pre-redirect version of Joe & Joey Records and the current version of Psychopathic Records, although the record label Joe & Joey Records is owned by the current members of Insane Clown Posse, it exists to release the albums of the group Psychopathic Rydas (to which Insane Clown Posse's members belong). (I am nominating the page here, rather than at WP:RFD, to leave open the possibility of discussing other options which are beyond the scope of that venue.) -- Black Falcon (talk) 21:57, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Government of Worcester County, Massachusetts to Category:Government in Worcester County, Massachusetts
Nominator's rationale: Rename. There is no government of Worcester County. —Markles 18:42, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note Category:Government of Massachusetts by county. I don't understand this whole structure. It doesn't make sense to me to put federal congressional districts or local district attorneys in a county-level category since neither of them is a county-level office. Harley Hudson (talk) 21:15, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Correct to say "Government of Massachusetts by county", but not its subcats. Hence, my suggested name change.—Markles 21:36, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming or deleting:

Rationalle: Per WP:OC#ASSOCIATED - this category name is too vague. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 15:52, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No objection to the renaming. The one problem I see myself is that there is, so far as I know, no specific adjective, like Nazarenes, which is not also associated with other groups. The ambiguity would itself lead to confusion. "Members of" or something similar might work better though. John Carter (talk) 16:08, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep the first 2 as each is acting as a container category for subcats which are not vague. Rename the others to 'Fooian members of the Church of the Nazarene' and cast out any non-members. Occuli (talk) 19:55, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I am inclined to agree with Occuli on this. The nationality ones look like mis-named adherents categories, and they should simply be renamed to "Fooian members of the Church of Nazarene". I don't really like the "associated with university x" format, though, and think there must be something better for these. Good Ol’factory (talk) 05:23, 12 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Academic institutions associated with the Bengal Renaissance to [[:Category:]]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OC#ASSOCIATED - this category name is too vague. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 02:56, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't think there is any real need to rename this category. The context of the Bengal Renaissance is well explained in the article, although I suppose it could be expanded. The use of the word "association" is unlike those of the Christian religious institutions that are discussed earlier. Rather they reflect a sense of identification or influence with many of the ideas, ideals, and principles of social justice and cultural agency that marked this period. Bengal Renaissance refers to a historical phase of cultural and literary output in the colonial era Bengal Presidency. Although the number of contributing institutions could be increased, the paucity of Wikipedia articles leave a lot to be desired. So it would be better to let the category name remain till there are better written and vastly expanded articles on the subject. Sidhu Jyatha (talk) 07:45, 12 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
