August 24[edit]

Category:Basketball players from Berlin[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: upmerge, noting that the contents are already in Category:Sportspeople from Berlin/ Category:German racing drivers as appropriate, so double upmerge is not needed. This close is authority for speedy nomination of the remaining 12 state sub-cats in Category:Racing drivers by state in Germany. – Fayenatic London 00:14, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Also propose merging

As per previous CFDs[1] and this one[2], we don't subcategorize per what type of athlete a person is. ...William 21:09, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support Merge per nom - CfD has been very clear in this. Also make sure entries have "German basketball players" added if it has been removed in favor of this catregory. Rikster2 (talk) 18:31, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support merge. Many precedents resulting in upmerge and deletion. Jrcla2 (talk) 18:51, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support merge. Geez, if we don't have "players from New York, Chicago or Los Angeles", we shouldn't have this. - Hoops gza (talk) 22:14, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Already renamed by Good Olfactory - see here. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:27, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per Donar (basketball club). The club was recently renamed from 'GasTerra Flames', its name since 2009, to 'Donar'. -- Black Falcon (talk) 15:24, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes! So, what are we waiting for? Let's rename the categories to ga along with the name change. --H-Hurry (talk) 19:11, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Rename. Per actual content. While the bus manufacturer's name is now Alexander Dennis, Alexander and Dennis are two separate bus brands. See Category:Dennis buses. HandsomeFella (talk) 11:54, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. Ymblanter (talk) 19:11, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Merge. Basically identical categories. There's some mess since for some awards we have recipients and for some - winners. Brandmeistertalk 10:47, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- As this is a national award, it is probably one we should keep under WP:OC:AWARD, but we do not need duplicate categories. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:22, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The categories appear to have the same scope; presumably there should be only one category, not two. Mitch Ames (talk) 03:45, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support nomination. Theoretically a distinction could be made (for Australian bishops migrated to other countries and bishops in Australia coming from other countries), but this is in practice hardly relevant. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:59, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
