August 19[edit]

Category:Microsoft MVP recipient[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: delete. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:18, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This category definitely needs to be renamed, as it should be plural rather than singular. I think entirely dropping the word "recipient" makes more sense than pluralizing it. Based on usage in places such as the Microsoft MVP website, it seems that "Microsoft MVP Award" is the award, and "Microsoft MVP" is a title given to award recipients. So, if we wanted to keep the word "recipient", we'd need to do "Microsoft MVP Award recipients", which to me seems too wordy. One more option is "Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals", but that usage seems to be less common. IagoQnsi (talk) 21:07, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Statues of women in New Zealand[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: rename. MER-C 18:15, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per all other by-country categories of its type, and to bring it in line with its opposite, Category:Sculptures of men in New Zealand. Grutness...wha? 11:06, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support move for consistency. ---Another Believer (Talk) 13:51, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, the article titles refer to them as "statues" rather than as "sculptures", so for consistency with the articles the category name might be kept. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:23, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • They are all statues and they are also all sculptures. An alternative option would be to make a new parent category and keep the statues one as a subcat. Grutness...wha? 00:39, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- The norm for the tree seems to be sculptures ... However, we also have Category:Statues in New Zealand which needs to be merged with Category:Sculptures in New Zealand. I support the tree being that way around, as sculpture can include bas-reliefs, which are not statues. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:19, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • That category's OK. There is a tree for sculptures by country, but none of the other national categories splits out women as a subcat. Grutness...wha? 02:33, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The albums in this category were produced by Leo Graham (songwriter) not Leo Graham, the reggae singer. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 03:23, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support: to keep consistent with the correct Leo Graham and keep all albums produced by the songwriter in the same, already existing category. Richard3120 (talk) 15:54, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Uttar Pradesh Technical University[edit]

Relisted, see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2020 October 10#Category:Uttar Pradesh Technical University

Category:University of Paris-Saclay[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: rename. MER-C 18:26, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The main article was recently moved without discussion or objection to Paris-Saclay University. The subcategories Category:Paris-Saclay University alumni and Category:Paris-Saclay University people are already in this format. Good Ol’factory (talk) 01:10, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak rename, for consistency, although while looking at the references it seems that translation from French to English was not really necessary in this case. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:05, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

RMIT University[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 or rename as indicated. MER-C 10:18, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The first category and its target appear to be duplicates. The main article is RMIT University and Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology redirects there. (I don't think it's worthwhile drawing the distinction that the "Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology" is the umbrella organization and "RMIT University" is the Australian portion of that. [There is also RMIT University Vietnam.] This is a distinction that is not drawn in article space.) Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:08, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge/rename per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:43, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • No objectionbut please ensure that "Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology" appears in the headnote in each case. The Vietnam institution is no doubt some kind of out-station. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:23, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
