Category:People educated at Licensed Victuallers' School[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 to Category:People educated at LVS Ascot. bibliomaniac15 01:53, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Procedural nomination on behalf of User:Uhooep for a category that was listed at CfD but not properly tagged. Their rationale was as follows:

LVS Ascot is the current name of the school which was formerly known as formerly known as Licensed Victuallers' School. I erroneously thought that doing a manual transfer across followed by a redirect would be ok - apologies.

HouseBlastertalk 19:49, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Smasongarrison: That seems cleaner to me too but based on the parent category, Category:People educated by school in Berkshire, this is the current format. Totally open to a later nomination changing that though. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:40, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds like a good approach. I'm not opposed to the rename as written. Mason (talk) 00:47, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Journalists killed while covering the 2023 Israel–Hamas war[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 to Category:People killed in the 2023 Israel–Hamas war. bibliomaniac15 01:54, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: All 4 Israeli journalists killed were not reporting while this happened, and similarly with Palestinian journalists it is not known in each circumstance whether they were covering the war or not. My proposed renaming is neutral and keeps with spirit of this category ~ 🦝 Shushugah (he/him • talk) 12:55, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment For transparency I created the category. The "while covering the *conflict name*" was used for consistency in the parent category Category:Journalists killed while covering military conflicts. If we're renaming, it may be worth doing the other categories as well. TulsaPoliticsFan (talk) 16:47, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

@Zxcvbnm, Marcocapelle, and Smasongarrison: do you have thoughts on the alternative rename? HouseBlastertalk 23:17, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm fine with either rename. I have a mild intangible preference for communication over telecommunication. Mason (talk) 00:15, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Fiction about adultery. (non-admin closure) HouseBlastertalk 01:03, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:NARROWCAT with 2 articles; otherwise would need to be renamed to Category:Comics about adultery for definingness, as is happening for the parent through WP:CFDS. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 19:25, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. Given we are talking about a single page, in lieu of relisting, I would ask participants to open a discussion at Talk:Fatimah el-Sharif if there is further debate about which categories the article belongs in.

Nominator's rationale: Contains and applies to only one page. Omnis Scientia (talk) 13:32, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
