Category:Why Do Fools Fall in Love (song)[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: delete (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 00:39, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: There are no categories for specific song titles nor should there be. Something like this could lead to a glut of overcategorization of other titles that could include a film named after the song, or any album that contains a cover version. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 21:46, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Greetings Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars
I see. Also, I know it does not have to do with this, but why does “Gangnam Style” article has its eponymous category although it’s a single?
best regards,
Inajd Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 21:55, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Inajd0101 it appears you've misunderstood the purpose of categories. The way you've made it, Category:Why Do Fools Fall in Love (song) functions more like Why Do Fools Fall in Love (a disambiguation page). The purpose of categories is navigation between subjects connected by common defining traits, while disambiguation is for like-named articles. I support deletion. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 22:09, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah,
Now I know now. Thanks, QuietHere. I agree with you. And excuse me for the inconvenience. Well, I did my best not to screw up. 😔
Best regards,
Inajd Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 22:11, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"The purpose of categories is navigation between subjects connected by common defining traits"
@QuietHere Just curious my friend, and I'm not trying to be nosy or sound condescending, but what do you mean by common defining traits? I'm learning. Thanks!
Best regards,
Inajd. Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 04:21, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Inajd0101 per CATDEF, "A defining characteristic is one that reliable sources commonly and consistently refer to in describing the topic, such as the nationality of a person or the geographic location of a place. For example, Italian and artist are defining characteristics of Caravaggio, and so of the article on him, because virtually all reliable sources on the topic mention them." DEFINING also has more details. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 04:25, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@QuietHere Fair enough. I understand that by then. Thanks! And just to let you know, AGAIN, I do my best to learn about Wikipedia although not all of them because it's not my lifestyle (although it might not be an excuse to you). And any of my works at Wikipedia is usually based on Frankie Lymon and his songs, such as "I'm Not a Juvenile Delinquent" and any articles related to him which I am passionate of learning about it. And @QuietHere, excuse me for adding categories without asking. I was so eager to see how it works, but I misinterpreted the purpose of categories. I should stick to editing most of my part on Wikipedia. And I wouldn't mind if you don't care about my passion regarding Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers and their songs.
Best regards,
Inajd. Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 04:34, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Inajd0101 to be clear, nobody is blaming you for this. You made a simple mistake and it's being taken care of. I think I can speak on behalf of any editor when I say I'm glad that you're willing to learn, even if there are bumps in the road. Heck, any other editor could tell you about plenty of bumps in the road they dealt with. I know I certainly had my fair share (some more recent than I'd like to admit). QuietHere (talk | contributions) 04:39, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@QuietHere
Oh and plus, I wouldn't mind if you wouldn't care about Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers and their songs, especially of how I'm passionate about them. You and @Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars are just probably paid to do the job and nothing else. Anyways, thanks!
Best regards,
Inajd. Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 04:41, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And also, it's never my intention to make assumptions for others to feel bad. Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 04:42, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just to be clear Wikipedia is totally WP:VOLUNTEER, nobody is meant to be "paid" to do anything besides the Wikimedia Foundation that operates the site. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:23, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
All right, fair enough. Not paid. I would assume the majority of people here are passionate about Wikipedia, or journalism, and nothing else, especially when it has to do with me being passionate about Frankie Lymon and his songs, especially “I’m Not a Juvenile Delinquent,” et cetera. But thanks!
Best regards,
Inajd. Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 06:01, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nomination: I misunderstood the purpose of categories. And now I know why QuietHere explained to me earlier. Also, excuse me for the inconvenience I made. Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 22:14, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 00:37, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: All the entries for this category are songs from the film. Alternatively, upmerge to Category:Songs written for films. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 21:41, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 21:59, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Rename per nomination + WP:C2C given the rest of Category:Songs written for films' subcats. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 22:11, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Rename per nomination: I misunderstood the purpose of categories. And now I know why QuietHere explained to me earlier. Also, excuse me for the inconvenience I made. I did my best although not much of a Wikipedia (which I use it for the research I am willing to make regarding Frankie Lymon and The Teenagers). Inajd Inajd0101 (talk) 22:16, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

History of Chiang Mai[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/delete as nominated. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 00:53, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, they are almost all single-article categories, which is not helpful for navigation. Besides there are a number of establishments articles in this tree which do not belong directly in a year category, and they are already in an Establishments in Thailand category. So part of the nomination is merging, another part (the establishments bit) is deletion. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:10, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge/delete The population of Chiang Mai in the most recent census was only 127k. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:42, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, the number you showed is for the population of the urban area of Chiang Mai. Whereas these categories likely refer to the Chiang Mai province that has the population of 1.79M, just saying. Jothefiredragon🐲talk🐉edits 04:33, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The categories are named and parented as if they are for the city, not the province. – Fayenatic London 12:59, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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 (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 00:43, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Narrow intersection of year and type of software and obvious overcategorization. Should be merged back to where it formerly was. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:40, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is not overcategorization - every yeas had around 30 games - we will have toooo many items in one page. I did not add all games to all years yet. Vitaly Zdanevich (talk) 11:03, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hundreds of items is still a normal amount for a category - some have thousands of items. Wikipedia won't crumble under the weight of a few hundred items being in a category. But if these year categorizations are kept, they should be by decade per WP:OCYEAR. Things should only be sorted by exact year when absolutely necessary. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 18:38, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge Only one of the three possible two-way intersections between "[released in] 2005", "Windows-only", and "freeware" actually exists. There are only 29 articles in the tree. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:37, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per LaundryPizza03. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 21:58, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 00:36, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This isn't a defining category for the single non-redirect page in this category. Mason (talk) 03:50, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The above is preserved as an archive of the discussion. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


Category:Music memes[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: delete (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 00:36, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Was previously deleted in 2022 for being non-defining to most entries, and it appears this is the case again now. In that prior discussion, Bibliomaniac15 suggested that this information was better presented in lists rather than a category, and I'm inclined to agree.

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 00:36, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's only one country in this category. At most there's two if you want to argue that East Germany isn't nested within Germany. Mason (talk) 02:10, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: New category containing only 2 redirects. Gjs238 (talk) 01:58, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Now contains 2 articles and 3 redirects. I have also added the main article, Relational art.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 00:14, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per QuietHere, having these articles in the category seems to be a matter of WP:OR. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:17, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • New additions have the same issue of not mentioning the subject as the existing ones. Perhaps that just a matter of language and these articles all just need a rewrite to clarify their relevance, or maybe even new sources that do so, but as is there's no room for inclusion. Potential OR like Marcocapelle said. My vote remains the same. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 22:19, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
