The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Irish emigrants. (non-admin closure) Edward-Woodrow • talk 12:19, 15 October 2023 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: I don't think that distinguishing by regime is helpful here. Overlapping cat Mason ( talk) 21:50, 6 October 2023 (UTC) reply
We categorize people by their time period and geopolitical entity as a rule (" Category:Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic people, Category:People of the Confederate States of America, etc.). You'd have to convince me why this is different, and you'd have to show how this doesn't break the existing Emigrants and Immigrants category tree, particularly Category:Emigrants from former countries. 67kevlar ( talk) 15:13, 13 October 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Whether the Kingdom of Ireland is a former country is arguable. It was controlled by the English both before and after the integration in the United Kingdom. Marcocapelle ( talk) 06:58, 14 October 2023 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Metafictional video games. (non-admin closure) Edward-Woodrow • talk 20:04, 13 October 2023 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: This category is not defining. Plenty of fictional works break the fourth wall. QuicoleJR ( talk) 18:23, 6 October 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Merge to Category:Metafictional video games. Same thing, duplicate category with a typo in the name. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 09:57, 7 October 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Merge to Category:Metafictional video games. I wouldn't say they've exactly the same thing but there's clearly not nearly enough disparity to justify a separate category. ― novov (t c) 10:05, 7 October 2023 (UTC) reply
  • 1. "This category is not defining". I mean exactly those games that do it in an interactive way. You need to read/edit/delete files that game creates. You need to move window outside the screen to "clean" the window and see something behind it. It is not about phrase of character "Hey player, did you know if it would in real life you couldn't swim 30 min without breathing...". Yeah such phrases are used by the "breaker" games but it is only one of the tools of those games...
2. Games do it rarely. Cartoons, films, books also do it but they do it much more often than games and usually in a non interactive way.
3. It is open to expansion with other items DustDFG ( talk) 18:57, 7 October 2023 (UTC) reply
There is already a defining category for this, as stated above: the category for metafictional video games.
Video games that "just" break the fourth wall once, like a one-off gag or Easter egg or side episode, but are not specifically metafictional the entire way through, are not defining enough to be listed anyway. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 04:34, 8 October 2023 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: rename, just "Armenian" is ambiguous, the intention is that these church buildings belong to the Armenian Apostolic Church. The parent category is likewise named "Armenian Apostolic". Marcocapelle ( talk) 14:16, 6 October 2023 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: merge. The title was suggested by another person at the speedy discussion, and this is an author request. (non-admin closure) House Blaster talk 21:31, 14 October 2023 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: merge, largely overlapping topics. Local government implies some sort of autonomy for local authorities, otherwise they would be redundant. Marcocapelle ( talk) 12:41, 6 October 2023 (UTC) reply
