The result of the discussion was: Rename. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 05:17, 10 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Clear case of WP:TIES; in Indian English the spelling "programme" is used. W. D. Graham 22:59, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • REname per nom: Indian English generally follows British English, though it has some extremely convoluted compound nouns that seem to be a literal translation of a Hindi or Urdu compound noun. However, is there enough content to justify a separate category for a lunar (as opposed to a space) programme? Peterkingiron (talk) 16:23, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: i want to renaming from liberal parties in the united states to modern american liberal parties which is more accurate naming category. User:Adn1990 21:34, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose at this time. How does using the ambiguous 'modern' help? Vegaswikian (talk) 00:10, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as is. Contemporary would be better than modern, but both are ambiguous. Also American can refer to anything in the Americas, and not just the United States.AioftheStorm (talk) 05:33, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy close nominator Adn1990 (talk · contribs) has nominated this exact thing once already, this is clearly trying to avoid an unfavorable result by double-posting. The prior nomination is at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2013 December 29 -- 76.65.128.112 (talk) 06:30, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment the nominator seems to have an obsession with these two categories, with several warnings concerning the older category on the nominator's talk page. -- 76.65.128.112 (talk) 06:36, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
