The result of the discussion was: rename as nominated. MER-C 10:16, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Not a proper name, and revolts -> rebellions per parent categories. Constantine ✍ 18:50, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:56, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Support per nom. buidhe 18:52, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename per nom. Dimadick (talk) 14:10, 22 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename but to Category:Cretan revolts. The article Cretan Revolt lists rather more than appear in the category, but many seem to be called revolts, not rebellions. The two terms are very similar and I would not want us to change a parent because of one local usage. Peterkingiron (talk) 14:13, 23 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • As the creator of the Cretan Revolt dab page, I have absolutely no problem with moving it to "Cretan rebellions" or something like that. I chose "revolt" back then because (for whatever reason) this seemed to be used in the few extant articles, but this doesn't mean we should make a rule out of it.

Category:People from Short Hills, New Jersey[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: merge. (non-admin closure) DannyS712 (talk) 00:12, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary subcategory. Short Hills is within a majority portion of Millburn, and we normally do not have subcategories for neighborhoods. The entries in this category should be moved to "Category:People from Millburn, New Jersey" Tinton5 (talk) 03:09, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support nom. Reasonable rationale being that of related category consistency. --Doug Mehus T·C 03:16, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per reasons given above. Ambrosiawater (talk) 08:34, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Liberal Party of Canada senators[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: speedy keep. Nomination withdrawn per discussion, without prejudice to renomination, of course, in the future. (non-admin closure) Doug Mehus T·C 13:04, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale:
  1. The Liberal Party of Canada no longer has any senators; and,
  2. Similar categories by class have "senators" not capitalized.

Friendly pings to fellow Canadian Wikipedian editors who edit related articles: Bearcat, Kawnhr, and MikkelJSmith2 Doug Mehus T·C 02:42, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Kawnhr, MikkelJSmith2, Colin M, and Oculi, yes, I thought you someone might point out the defunct parties or the Conservative Party senators; however, consider that those are defunct parties. It is grossly misleading to characterize Independent Senators Group or Canadian Senators Group senators as also Liberal Party of Canada senators, particularly when, there there is a Progressive Senate Group of former independent Liberal senators who are also tagged with Liberal Party of Canada senators. Doug Mehus T·C 11:36, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's not misleading. David Owen (say) was in several different parties and is tagged with each one. Oculi (talk) 12:47, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Independent Canadian senators[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: speedy keep. Nomination withdrawn per discussion with Colin M and support for me making this bold move outside of CfD. (non-admin closure) Doug Mehus T·C 12:02, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Note to CfD Closer: This is not a straight merge and delete of Category:Independent Canadian senators, as the category is being retained, but rather an upmerging of Category:Independent Canadian senators to Category:Members of the Senate of Canada since the subordinate independent Senate caucus categories that Bearcat earlier today nominated will be upmerged to Category:Independent Canadian senators. Since the caucus groups are notionally not political parties, it holds that this category should be upmerged from the current Category:Canadian senators by political party. In short, post-close, what is to happen is happen is Category:Independent Canadian senators is to become a subcategory of Category:Members of the Senate of Canada.
