Nominator's rationale: I think this is a valid category which would demonstrate the view of the rich as seen in fiction. The category would presumably include a lot of gothic fiction like Batman, the Adams Family, The Munsters and Dark Shadows. However as I am wrong about categories; this means this category should be deleted for being trivial. CensoredScribe ( talk) 00:03, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • delete haunted house? Yes, that cat could remain. But mansions? I don't see this as a theme that is regularly discussed.-- Obi-Wan Kenobi ( talk) 13:55, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. The haunted subcat should remain, but most of the stuff that was added to mansions cat is really about ghosts and haunted stuff, e.g. Casper (film), Cult (film) etc. I'm not sure what Death at an Old Mansion is about since the wiki page doesn't have enough details, but there are probably too few articles to justify a category focused on mansions, especially in way that would be WP:DEFINING. Someone not using his real name ( talk) 17:06, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete My interpretation of the title was that it was a category about fictional mansions, which might be a viable defining characteristic. The actual category is fictional works that include, mention or take place in mansions, and I don't see from the articles included here that this is a defining characteristic.

Nominator's rationale: Martial arts tournament is not a page; and martial arts tournament anime and manga is being deleted. No sources actually say that the tournament aspect is defining of any of these works; only the martial arts aspect is defining. Martial arts tournament is not a wikipedia page; it just a redirect to martial arts. CensoredScribe ( talk) 23:27, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Keep: This one has its uses as there are films solely about martial arts tournaments, which makes this meet WP:DEFINING. The "Martial arts tournament anime and manga" category is being deleted because they are not solely about martial arts tournaments.— Ryūlóng ( 琉竜) 04:02, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: "Foo Ocean in fiction" could include articles about fictional works in which the ocean is not a WP:DEFINING characteristic. After renaming the categories may need to be purged. DexDor ( talk) 22:51, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Question—do you really mean "in" or maybe "on" or both? 20,000 Leagues under the Sea would belong in an "in" category, but Moby Dick would not. Beeswaxcandle ( talk) 05:34, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply
The proposed new category names are aligned with the existing subcats ("Films set in the Foo Ocean"), which I think means set in the area of the ocean (i.e. under, on and/or over the ocean) - it probably should be clarified in the category text. DexDor ( talk) 06:43, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Set "in the Indian Ocean" is like "set in France". In functions the same way, the ocean is a geographical area, it does not mean you have to be under the water. Anyway, ships are partially under the water, so to say they are not in the ocean seems an extreme example of hair-splitting. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 18:13, 22 February 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Delete (upmerging the subcat to Category:Ice) unless someone can come up with suitable inclusion criteria that will avoid this category including every film in which an ice cube appears. I've added Category:Snow in fiction to this nomination as the issues apply to that as well. DexDor ( talk) 22:30, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Obi-Wan Kenobi, I've been going through the "Fictional X" or "X in fiction" categories and there are a lot of categories like these two which seem be have been created in the past 6 weeks by a handful of editors.

The result of the discussion was: delete. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:02, 25 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Category created for a single article about an English painter. However, according to the Copyist article, the term is more commonly applied to the profession of someone who copies music by hand. In my view it will be confusing to have a category which can contain articles about completely different people/professions. Neither are there any higher level 'Copyist' categories at the moment. Sionk ( talk) 20:37, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
OK, I suggest amend to English copyists (painters) & amend existing cat above to Copyists (music). A higher level cat to include both could be created if desired. There are several painters who have produced no well-known artistic work of their own creation, but are best known for their skill in copying the works of others, but are not forgers. Can such people really be put into the same category as "real" creative artists like Picasso? ( Lobsterthermidor ( talk) 13:38, 13 February 2014 (UTC)) reply
Actually there is a higher level category Category:Art copyists, so the content can be merged there. Not much need to resort to English nationalism when there's only a handful of candidates for the category. Sionk ( talk) 14:09, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: Delete. Per Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2013 January 19#Categories:American actors by ethnicity. R'n'B ( call me Russ) 20:01, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Keep With the staggering growth of the K-pop phenomenon and its global spread to the United States, the participation of Korean American performers is a distinctive and defining characteristic, one that is broadly mentioned in the articles about the people included in the category and in the reliable and verifiable sources about these people. Alansohn ( talk) 20:02, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Categorizing people by their nationality (e.g. nationality+occupation) and by their ethnicity (e.g. ethnicity+occupation) may be reasonable as most people only have one nationality and one ethnicity. We also categorize musicians by genre (e.g. in Category:K-pop musicians). However categorizing people by descent (i.e. the ethnicity of their ancestors) can mean a large number of categories (e.g. up to 8 if you go back to great-grandparents) - that's not proper/useful categorization; it's tagging articles by a relatively trivial (for an encyclopedia) characteristic of the person. Note: The nomination does not mention the subcat. DexDor ( talk) 20:22, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Upmerge to Category:American people of Korean descent but not to the general music category because almost all are in some sub-cat. In general the ethnicity of musicians is not defining to their career as a musician. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 22:13, 19 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • keep - we need to look at the whole tree at Category:American musicians of Asian descent, and even broader. This one category is not enough to make a decision on.-- Obi-Wan Kenobi ( talk) 22:53, 19 February 2014 (UTC) reply
    • That has never been our approach. The consensus is these ethnic categories only stand when there is specific support for that particular ethnicity. One ethnicity does not survive or fall on the basis of others, but only on its own. The guidelines are clear that the specific intersection has to be capable of its own head article that is more than a list, not that some other intersection can be so capable and force us to recognize new ones.

Nominator's rationale: Another unnecessary division of anime and manga. They all feature card games, but this isn't a necessary qualifier. — Ryūlóng ( 琉竜) 18:15, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Delete per nom. There is no distinguishing article about magical cards used in anime and manga, plus an unnecessary intersection. - AngusWOOF ( talk) 19:00, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Rename It should Category:Card anime and manga which would include regular card games like poker as well as series which heavily features the tarot. Hitomi from Vision of Escaphlowne uses tarot cards but it's for divination not really a game. CensoredScribe ( talk) 00:47, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Keep but rename and limit to only those anime that feature card games as their main subject (the name should reflect that narrower focus). Card games are the main focus of a few anime and manga, and while this subgenre isn't large I think it is large enough to support a category. Examples of anime and manga where card games are the main focus include Yu-Gi-Oh! (other than the first TV series and beginning chapters of the manga), Duel Masters, Cardfight!! Vanguard, and Weiß Survive. Card games are the main defining feature of those works, so categorizing them in that way seems reasonable. Note, however, that I disagree strongly with CensoredScribe's suggestion that the category be expanded to include even those anime and manga that feature cards in a non-defining way . . . I would rather see the category deleted than have it expanded in that way, as that would make it just a trivial grouping of any anime and manga that happen to include cards in them. Calathan ( talk) 16:14, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Card games in anime and manga then? This would include card collecting stories Cardcaptor Sakura and Negima (or more so Negima Neo, but exclude references to the characters that employ magic cards as with Heaven's Lost Property, Cana in Fairy Tail or Fool in Kaleido Star unless there's an article about that specific character? - AngusWOOF ( talk) 18:41, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply
None of the series you mention would be in the category that I'm suggesting. Basically, I think Yu-Gi-Oh! and shows imitating Yu-Gi-Oh! form a distinct subgenre of anime and manga, and I'm suggesting that we repurpose this category to be the category for that subgenre (since a bunch of the stuff that would be in the category I'm suggesting is already in this category). I'm opposed to keeping the category as it is now, as it seems to group things that aren't really similar. If other people disagree that the subgenre I'm referring to is something we should have a category for, then I think the category should be deleted. Even if the category were to be kept as it currently is (which again, I oppose), I don't think things like Heaven's Lost Property and Kaleido Star (I haven't watched Fairy Tail) should be in the category, as they only incidentally involve cards, and don't have cards as a main defining characteristic. Calathan ( talk) 19:09, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply
There is a Category:Collectible card games so perhaps it should be subcategorized there? Then you don't have to worry about cards that come to life in situations outside of games. - AngusWOOF ( talk) 21:58, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: delete, upmerging Category:Martial arts tournament anime and manga to Category:Martial arts anime and manga. Good Ol’factory (talk) 03:27, 12 March 2014 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: This is an arbitrary division made by an editor who has a history of creating poorly thought out categories that do not exactly act as defining aspects of the work of fiction. There's no doubt that these works of fiction do include martial arts tournaments, but they are not the focus. — Ryūlóng ( 琉竜) 18:14, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Delete per nom. Trivial intersection with manga and anime, and no supporting article on the topic. WP:OC#TRIVIAL - AngusWOOF ( talk) 19:13, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Delete There is no page for the concept of an actual martial arts tournament. Category:Martial arts tournament films should also be deleted for the same reason. CensoredScribe ( talk) 23:03, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Keep - Anime News Network considers "tournament" to be a genre of anime and manga [1], placing it on the same level as things like "romance" and "science fiction". This lends support to the notion that it is a valid way of classifying anime and manga. Note, however, while the staff of ANN decides what genres to have in their classification system, actually placing anime into those genres in ANN's encyclopedia is up to users (i.e., I would consider the classification of anime in this way as being supported by a reliable source, but the encyclopedia is of no use in saying which individual anime and manga actually should be placed in this category. Also, so there isn't any confusion, only the 16 genres on the page I linked to are decided by ANN staff. The "themes" section is entirely user submitted, both in terms of what themes exist and what gets categorized as those themes). I think that it should be easy to find sources that indicate individual anime and manga feature tournaments, so placing anime and manga into those categories shouldn't be a problem. Also, I think that tournaments are a defining characteristic of many anime and manga, and that categorizing them in that way is completely reasonable. Also, as CensoredScribe points out in a way that I think is sarcastic and POINTY (based on his disagreements with Ryulong that have been coming up on WP:ANI), non-anime works are categorized in this way. While that doesn't mean that such categorization is necessary correct (per WP:OTHERSTUFF), I think the point is valid that if this is a reasonable way to categorize other works, then it is a reasonable way to categorize anime. I disagree that this categorization is "arbitrary" or "trivial". Calathan ( talk) 16:00, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Upmerge to Category:Martial arts anime and manga. Martial arts tournament is not an actual genre recognized by critics. On top of that ANN's encyclopedia is not a reliable source as it is based on user generated content with no vetting or editorial oversight. 24.149.117.220 ( talk) 12:44, 14 February 2014 (UTC) reply
As I explained above, the genres available on the ANN encyclopedia are chosen by professional staff (i.e., the existence of the tournament genre is not user generated content, but a choice made by the site's staff . . . which anime are placed in that genre is user generated content though). I think it would be entirely reasonable to upmerge Category:Martial arts tournament anime and manga to Category:Martial arts anime and manga if there is a consensus that the tournament part isn't supported by reliable sources. The parent category Category:Tournament anime and manga isn't just about martial arts anime, so I don't think it should be merged with a category dealing with martial arts. Calathan ( talk) 17:40, 16 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - Calathan is correct here because Anime News Network's staff are paid professionals and the decisions of key professionals for genre categorization should always be given fair representation. There are also numerous titles that are exclusively tournament-focused as their plot entirety or lengthy story arcs that specifically deal with tournament's stretching back several decades.

Nominator's rationale: Delete. This category essentially duplicates Category:Shapeshifting in fiction. Also, the parent category Category:Transformation (function) does not have anything to do with this category, because it's about mathematical transformations, while this category is about physically changing shape. The category has no suitable other parent category. JIP | Talk 13:18, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Oppose Shapeshifting in fiction is a subcategory of transformation. I removed that math parent category. Transformation goes beyond shape shift. Take for Example Aliens from the Aliens franchise or Henshin and the list goes on. Serialjoepsycho ( talk) 14:52, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • rename to Transformation and shapeshifting in fiction or something similar. It's hard to draw a fine line, but the common thread is an entity which is in one form that turns into a different form, through mechanical or biological or magical means. We don't need to create a distinction.-- Obi-Wan Kenobi ( talk) 15:02, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
There is already a distinction. The Power Rangers do not shape shift but they do transform. That's magical means and Physical faculty to specific mythological creatures like therianthrope and the yōkai. As for mechanical I'd ask that you be more specific. I would call it a mistake to say the transformers shapeshift when talking about them shifting from a vehicle into a giant robot. Only in situations such as in the live action movie where bumble bee takes a form of another car does it resemble traditional shapeshifting and that was arguable magical instead of mechanical. I'd be wary of attributing to much Metamorphosis to Shapeshifting especially if that metamorphis takes place over an extended period of time and it is a one tome transformation. Other things that would transformation and not shapeshifting is size changing. Serialjoepsycho ( talk) 16:00, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply
If we're going to have two separate categories, the distinction must be carefully defined in the categories' text part. And I would think that would mean neither would be a subcategory of the other, but rather they would be subcategories of "changing into another form". JIP | Talk 17:28, 11 February 2014 (UTC) reply

But shape shifting is a transformation however not all transformations are shape shifting. Transformation can be independent of shape shifting but shapeshifting is never dependent of transformation. Being that shape shifting is a type of transformation it shouldn't be more than a subcategory. The distinction already exists correctly as it already is. Serialjoepsycho ( talk) 17:52, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply

Please explain in definite terms how shapeshifting and transformation differ from each other and what kind of transformation is not shapeshifting. JIP | Talk 19:15, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply

/info/en/?search=Henshin#H is transformation. Mothra can go thru metamorphosis. Robocop went thru a transformation from a man into a cyborb. For Inspector Gadget the same. Shape shifting is limited to shape. The Wonder Twins has Jayna shape shift into various animals while Zan can transforms into any state of water. Humans transformed into demons during possession. There's shadow Mimicry, such as that done by /info/en/?search=List_of_Marvel_Comics_characters:_S#Specter. The list is far longer and I could keep going but there's not a point. Shape shifting is a transformation but it is but one type of transformation. Serialjoepsycho ( talk) 19:43, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply

I sort of get your point. Shapeshifting is a transformation where only the shape is changed, but other types of transformation can change the whole essence. Still, this needs to be clearly written down, especially in the case of my favourite shapeshifting fiction Transformers. The Transformers are robots who shapeshift, but do not change their whole essence, but still they are officially and universally called "Transformers", not "Shapeshifters". JIP | Talk 19:48, 12 February 2014 (UTC) reply

Well it's even that. The The Incredible Shrinking Woman and Attack of the 50 Foot Woman also aren't considered shape shifter but they both go thru transformations. As for Transformers, Well in very few situations do they actually shape shift. Mostly they just transform. Vehicle mode to Robot mode is essentially a transformation. They unfold from Car mode to robot mode The only situations where they actually shape shift is when in Car mode they change the look of the vehicle they are. For instance in the first live action movie when Bumblee Bee switches his shape from an older Camaro to a newer Camaro. It's not clear how he does this? Is it by mechanical means? Shape shifting is generally considered to come from magic or as a part of what creates mythological creatures to change shape. I'm also unaware of any source material that has the transformers be shape shifters in anyway. Shape shifting and Transformation are both far older than the transformers in fiction. Transformation Scroll down to fiction there. Shape shifting just happens to be more interesting to write about as a whole in a singular article. None the less though transformation is a very interesting subject. Perhaps you can start an article on it. Serialjoepsycho ( talk) 02:32, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Comment Categories need to be defining, unambiguous, objective, qualities like dates, locations, gender, occupation, medium, etc. They need to be simple, with only brief explanations about what is to be included. The articles/categories need to obviously "fit". The fact that so much explanation is needed to separate what is or is not in a category, it's a badly formed category and should be deleted and the organizational structure rethought to be simpler. Liz Read! Talk! 03:00, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply

Such an explanation was needed due to the Editors knowledge of the IP transformers being shape shifters causing them confusuion. Transformation in fiction refers to all impossible physical transformation that takes place in fiction including shape shifting. Shape shifting refers only to the very specific transformation defined as shape shifting. Serialjoepsycho ( talk) 06:20, 15 February 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. This is an overbroad "catch-all" category. Regardless of confustion with Transformers-the-transforming-robots it still stands that the massive walls of text needed to define what this actually is intended to be are the strongest possible argument as for why this isn't a practical level of categorisation. - The Bushranger One ping only 01:50, 19 February 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete I think we should just scrap all the "x in fiction" categories. They are badly named. They should have aritcles that discuss the phenomenon as a subject, not be list categories of fiction works where these appear.

Nominator's rationale: The pages in this category are not lists - they are disambiguation pages. Indications that they are dab pages include: they have a disambiguation tag (and hence category), they don't have references, they are formatted as dab pages ("Foo Square may refer to:..."), the "lists" contain things that are not squares/plazas (e.g. see Queens Plaza or Queen Square), some of them have a name ending "(disambiguation)", this category is itself under the dab category and in most/all cases the talk page is tagged for WP:WPDAB. This is the only "Lists of..." category in Category:Place name disambiguation pages. A rename (e.g. to "Squares and plazas disambiguation pages") would, IMO, be wrong as dab pages do not need such fine article-side categorization and this type of categorization goes against the instructions at Category:Disambiguation pages#Notes. If a particular wikiproject has an interest in these dab pages they could tag the talk pages (e.g. to put them in Category:NA-importance Urban studies and planning articles).
