December 12[edit]

Category:First Merkel cabinet[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. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 12:32, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete for now, there is only the main article and a redirect. No objection to recreate the category when more articles about this cabinet are published. I added the part in italic because I just purged two articles that weren't about the cabinet at all. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:04, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You purged Hypo Real Estate. It was nationalised by the First Merkel cabinet, so I would still categorise it here. I can't remember what the other page was that you removed. Added two more. ‎⠀Trimton⠀‎‎ 23:57, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support delete. The tangentially related things that Trimton has added could very easily be linked on the pages. Mason (talk) 01:07, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • It is so much tangentially related that even direct links may be inappropriate. Take e.g. 33rd G8 summit, why would the text need to refer to the German cabinet? Marcocapelle (talk) 04:06, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The point is that the first Merkel cabinet refers not only to the people in the cabinet, but also to the 2005-2009 administration more widely. The G8 summit was organised by that administration. Added some of the ministers.‎⠀Trimton⠀‎‎ 00:37, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Non-Austrian military personnel in Austrian armies[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: Manually merge the subcats, no consensus to rename the parent. * Pppery * it has begun... 18:49, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Non-Austrian isn't really defining. Rename is based on sibling categories in Category:Expatriate military units and formations Mason (talk) 02:55, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • This would work in conjunction with deleting the Croatian and Italian subcategories. The Austro-Hungarian army was the native army for the Croats and Italians in these categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:42, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, signed, Rosguill talk 00:18, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Further clarification, I am opposing unless beforementioned two subcategories are deleted simultanously. Marcocapelle (talk) 01:13, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Do you have an alternative name that wouldn't require deleting the child categories? Mason (talk) 22:47, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 12:32, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, almost every cabinet of Germany was a coalition cabinet. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:01, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: unnecessary layer. Yorkporter (talk) 22:11, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom (normally I would have said upmerge but seems not needed here). Marcocapelle (talk) 04:14, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Modern yoga books[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: combine. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 12:36, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Should match the format of other non-fiction books Mason (talk) 14:26, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support "about", per precedent, consistent with many other renames we recently had. I am also inclined to support the merge because the "classic" books are in fact quite modern. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:29, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, I didn't really feel like the distinction between modern and classic was very helpful. If there ends up being a critical mass, then they can be diffused by century, which is less arbitrary. Mason (talk) 21:39, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 12:39, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Contains the same pages as the latter; all players are American. Additionally, Major League Baseball players are categorized by league and/or position, not ethnicity. Omnis Scientia (talk) 09:41, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle, pinging you to start a discussion on this. Omnis Scientia (talk) 19:32, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Yoga texts and documentation[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. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 12:39, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I think that this category should be renamed to match other overarching categories. Here's the category description: "This is an overarching category covering books and texts over thousands of years, so it is suggested that all individual titles should go into one of the sub-categories such as 'Hatha yoga texts'. If a suitable subcategory does not exist for a book it should be created and the book placed in it, the category to be added here." Mason (talk) 05:48, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 12:40, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Dual merge. This was a confederation that lasted 5 years and shouldn't be defining for emigration. Mason (talk) 04:54, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge, this wasn't a proper country anyway. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:36, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge -- We cannot allow separate categories for every change in consitutional governance. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:40, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
