Category:Christian sites of the Roman Empire
- 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 18:13, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: rename per actual content, everything in this category is about buildings and structures, which fits perfectly well in parent Category:Christian buildings and structures. Marcocapelle ( talk) 10:39, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep -- The rationale is questionable as two items relates to artificial caves, which are neither buildings nor structures, while Lullingstone Villa is an archaeological site. However, I see not reason why this should not be included within a buildings and structures tree. Peterkingiron ( talk) 17:50, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Rename per nom Artificial caves are still structures, and villas are buildings. Nothing out of the ordinary for a buildings and structures category. Dimadick ( talk) 16:17, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- Rename per nom; virtually every site in the Roman Empire was 'Christian' by the later part of its existence. Carlossuarez46 ( talk) 21:47, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. Artificial caves are still structures. To @ Peterkingiron: The villa had a rather lovely Chi-Rho mosaic indicating the owner was Christian. Laurel Lodged ( talk) 07:39, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

Category:BBC Television shows
- 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: diffusion. It appears that the scale of the changes needed to properly recategorize the contents of this category are far beyond the rename proposed. However, there does seem to be a consensus to properly diffuse the contents, creating new categories as needed.

- Propose renaming Category:BBC Television shows to Category:BBC television shows
- Nominator's rationale: rename, for consistency with this previous discussion and for consistency with its subcategories. The category content seems not to refer to shows of BBC Television exclusively. Marcocapelle ( talk) 10:32, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- @ Fuddle, BrownHairedGirl, and Gonnym: pinging contributors to the previous discussion. Marcocapelle ( talk) 10:35, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- This category seems to be in a mess and is not setup how other similar categories are. For example, Category:Antiques Roadshow is in that category, but the article states it was broadcast on BBC One, which while it has Category:BBC One, does not have Category:BBC One shows (or "original programming" once the CfD ends) as is done in Category:British television series by channel. Another example is Aaagh! It's the Mr. Hell Show! which should be in a Category:BBC Two shows category. So actual result should be to sort the content of the category into correct network/channel categories and leave in BBC Television only stuff they produced as a studio (if they are a studio) and then if we want a parent category for all BBC x network/channels, then a category called Category:BBC television shows (or "original programming" once the CfD ends) can be created that has only categories and no pages. -- Gonnym ( talk) 10:45, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- "Shows" is also a problem as indicated here. I would support diffusing to the four channels. I don't think the category was created to indicate a studio. Fuddle ( talk) 12:11, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

Category:Wierd time zones
- 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: Deleted by another admin, as mass-creation. Carlossuarez46 ( talk) 21:49, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Not sure about the definition of a "weird" time zone, possibly this should be renamed "Category:Non-Full-Hour Timezones" or something like that. This currently has no parent category. Since this is probably created in good faith I am not so sure about deleting it as g2 or g3 Victor Schmidt ( talk) 09:10, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:Time zones, non-full-hour would be a rather trivial characteristic. Marcocapelle ( talk) 09:59, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Rename somehow. These are time zones with a difference from GMT other than multiples of half an hour. Category:Non-Full-Hour Timezones would fit the bill, but it would be necessary to populate it better: India used a time zone of X+0.5 hours and the template suggests there are others half-hour cases. Peterkingiron ( talk) 17:45, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Procedural note. @ Victor Schmidt: the category is not tagged. -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 01:43, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- I have tagged it now. Marcocapelle ( talk) 03:15, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- @ BrownHairedGirl: becuase the page creator had removed it. Thank you for readding it. Victor Schmidt ( talk) 09:26, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- @ KirbyvoiceAUTTP: you attempted to remove the CfD tag for a second time. Please do not do that. If you want to give input to the discussion, you are welcome to do that here. Marcocapelle ( talk) 11:13, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:Time zones per Marcocapelle. -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 11:18, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- Merge per above. Note that the current name is both subjective and misspelt - always remember that we put the "we" in "weird". Grutness... wha? 15:58, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

- Delete, not a defining characteristic. Marcocapelle ( talk) 05:53, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per the prior CfD. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 07:31, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep as I don't see this as a broadly different category to those listing sportspeople accused/convicted of doping — which is also not necessarily a defining characteristic. However, I acknowledge that there may be a more suitable place on Wikipedia to broach this topic. Rovingrobert ( talk) 04:26, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- If you think doping is not a defining characteristic either you should nominate Category:Doping cases in tennis. It is not a reason to keep Category:COVID-19 cases in tennis though. Marcocapelle ( talk) 05:29, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete OVID-19 in tennis likely cannot be written other than as list or a SYNTH. Carlossuarez46 ( talk) 21:52, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Araucanía and People from Araucanía
- 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 18:14, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:La Araucanía Region into Category:Araucanía Region [this last should be the name of the category and not a redirect]
- Propose renaming Category:People from La Araucanía Region into Category:People from Araucanía Region [this last should be the name of the category and not a redirect]
- Nominator's rationale: Chilean regions should be named consistenly. Current praxis is not to use pronouns. The proposed name is the original name until it was moved years ago without discussion. The relevant article Araucanía Region for the category does also not include Spanish pronoun. Dentren | Talk 11:21, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Support per
WP:C2D, could have been listed
for speedy renaming.
Marcocapelle (
talk) 13:51, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Marcocapelle, I found the first move years ago wrongful, so discussing this here may help establish a precedent that adding pronouns to the names of Chilean regions and provinces is not uncontroversial. Dentren | Talk 10:59, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
