  • Comment I am making sure these are cases where the listed composer is not notable, to which I'd agree. The general idea of a "Video games scored by X" where X is a notable person should be acceptable otherwise. -- Masem ( t) 21:50, 1 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete all. Specifically for non-notable composers, this is not a defining trait. Axem Titanium ( talk) 00:26, 2 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete iff the composer has no article and there are fewer than five articles in the category. Some games have scores by notable artists (e.g., David Bowie), and some composers are established enough to have scored dozens of games. Those who fail both of these hurdles, though, shouldn't have categories. Grutness... wha? 03:58, 2 June 2020 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: We don't collect redirects by namespace of the target in other cases, why should we do so here? 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 18:57, 1 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Oppose. 7690 transclusions.. that just kind of just shows you right there it's a popular category.
    @ 1234qwer1234qwer4: It's also verifiably untrue that we don't do this for other namespaces because {{ R from draft}} exists. Either way, I'd notify Template talk:R to project namespace about this nom. – MJLTalk 19:52, 1 June 2020 (UTC) reply
    • @ MJL: Well, no. Your linked rcat is for collecting redirects "from pages in the draft namespace (drafts) to articles in mainspace". This category collects redirects from Wikipedia namespace to Wikipedia namespace. This is like collecting redirects from mainspace to mainspace. 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 20:55, 1 June 2020 (UTC) reply
      • @ 1234qwer1234qwer4: "from pages in the draft namespace (drafts) to articles in mainspace" is an example of a redirect "by namespace of the target" which was your original contention. – MJLTalk 03:04, 2 June 2020 (UTC) reply
        • @ MJL: okay, maybe I have worded the nomination not clear enough; still, there is an explanation in the description of the category. This category explicitly collects redirects from project space to project space. 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 11:38, 2 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Oppose – Yes, there are other categories like that, e.g. Category:Redirects to templates and Category:Redirects to portals. You haven't given any reason why we shouldn't continue to use them. M.Clay1 ( talk) 01:44, 2 June 2020 (UTC) reply
    • @ Mclay1: the equivalent of the categories you named for project namespace is Category:Redirects to project space. The redirects in the linked categories are only cross-namespace while this is just every single redirect to project namespace. Category:Redirects to the main namespace doesn't contain all redirects from article namespace to article namespace either. 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 11:38, 2 June 2020 (UTC) reply
      • That's not correct. You can see in those categories that they are redirects within the same namespace. There are also categories for cross-namespace redirects. The naming is consistent. There's no category for all redirects within the main namespace because it would be unnecessary – all redirects that aren't in those other categories are in the mainspace. M.Clay1 ( talk) 14:38, 3 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • @ Paine Ellsworth: Any comments? 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 11:53, 2 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Yes, my comment would include a big keep because unfortunately the above premise is false. When we look at the functional index of rcat templates, we find under Navigation aids the subsection called To namespaces. Nine rcats are listed that collect redirects by namespace of the target, rcats that categorize redirects by the namespace the targets are in. Each rcat template categorizes redirects to maintenance categories like this one, categories that are monitored by either individual editors or by bots. Long ago, editors found it to be an improvement to the project to monitor as many redirects as possible, which is why I've spent more than ten years finding uncatted redirects and sorting them to appropriate maintenance categories. So this category and its rcat template, {{ R to project namespace}}, should continue to be utilized. P.I. Ellsworth   ed.  put'r there 11:39, 3 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Pleasure! Redirect categories are used to get a handle on the many and varied types of redirects. Categories readily show how many redirects are within it, and bots are used to extract other data from high volume categories. Some redirect maintenance categories are used to make sure redirects are not targeting the wrong namespaces and to find redirects that need to be mentioned on their target page, retargeted or deleted. There are probably several more data-collection tasks about which I don't have a clue for which redirect maintenance categories are used.

  • Merge per nominator. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 22:03, 1 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete both descent category; no explanation of how distant the descent may be, what reliable sources tell us that anyone is of that much, or that this is a notable intersection between nationality, career, and 'descent'. American politicians of Cuban descent notably doesn't exist. The closest article seems to be Hispanic and Latino conservatism in the United States which - apart from aggregating Cuban-Americans with those of an unspecified 'descent' - aggregates those of howeverly-defined 'Cuban-ness' with 'Mexican-ness', 'Puerto Rican-ness' and several dozen other '-ness'es, and then we have the difference between conservatives and Republicans.

The result of the discussion was: Rename to Category:Redirects to a decade; revisit if unsatisfactory There's no support for the current name but opinion is divided all over on the destination with discussion having ground to a halt and unlikely to revive; this one has the most support Timrollpickering ( talk) 17:02, 26 June 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Plural. 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 17:23, 1 June 2020 (UTC) reply
Disagree. The plural for the category is for the entries, which are "redirects. Each redirect goes to one decade, so "decade" should not be plural. Its rcat template is {{ R to decade}}, not {{ R to decades}}. If anything, a correct and more precise name would be Category:Redirects to a decade; however, the creators of this type of maintenance category appeared to prefer to leave out definite and indefinite articles, to be concise rather than precise. So this category name is acceptable just as it is. P.I. Ellsworth   ed.  put'r there 21:55, 4 June 2020 (UTC) reply
@ Paine Ellsworth: Almost every rcat is named with a plural in that position. 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 12:18, 6 June 2020 (UTC) reply
Sometimes the plural applies, sometimes it doesn't. There might be more than one modification or more than one diacritical mark in a target title or a redirect title. In this case, in never applies. These redirects always target only one decade, so it would be inappropriate to use "decades" (plural). I would not be averse to renaming the cat to Category:Redirects to a decade; although I could be wrong, it just seems there are much more pressing improvement needs on Wikipedia! P.I. Ellsworth   ed.  put'r there 12:27, 6 June 2020 (UTC) reply
@ Paine Ellsworth: I would still say that the redirect "point to decades", not to "decade" or "a decade". While a single one always redirects to one decade, they don't target the same one. Would you really use "films about an animal" for films that only address one animal (but each a different one)? 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 17:30, 6 June 2020 (UTC) reply
Yes, I would. Either works, I suppose; however, "films about an animal" in this case is more precise than "films about animals" (imho). P.I. Ellsworth   ed.  put'r there 22:10, 6 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Agree that Category:Redirects to a decade is a little more precise than Category:Redirects to decades, as every redirect links to one decade only. Marcocapelle ( talk) 13:53, 7 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Support as nominated. Each redirect is only to one target, but we still use plurals in category names both for "redirects" and for the description of the targets, see [1]. – Fayenatic London 21:50, 8 June 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Alt rename to Category:Redirects to decade articles. The indefinite article doesn't really make sense given our conventions, and the mere plural "decades" seems, for lack of a better policy-related rationale, rather strange. I think if specificity is our main goal, the best way to put it is probably using "decade articles." bibliomaniac 1 5 02:54, 10 June 2020 (UTC) reply

Comment: Not opposed to renaming, but the rationale is not quite accurate. Medieval Islam = Medieval Islamic world = the equivalent of Christendom. It refers to the historical period from the 7th to 15th centuries and part of the world where the dominant religious and cultural influence was the religion of Islam. Geographically, medieval Islam extended from the Iberian Peninsula through North Africa and the Middle East, to central Asia. This is how it is defined and used in the academic literature, but I can see why it can be confusing for the average Wiki reader. Al-Andalusi ( talk) 15:14, 1 June 2020 (UTC) reply
