[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 to Category:Semiconductor technology. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 11:41, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category:International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors currently contains one other article (International Roadmap for Devices and Systems is called a successor to the eponymous article's topic) besides the eponymous article. Although WP:OCEPON is imprecise, this category doesn't currently have "enough directly-related articles" within it that indicate the category was justified in its creation.

Nominator's rationale: I looked through Category:National cabinets, and we don't seem to categorise ministers by cabinet membership. I think it would be akin to WP:PERFCAT. – Fayenatic London 18:00, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 00:16, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete, "evangelical" has a very specific meaning in American Christianity which does not apply to these Swiss people. See also Evangelical (disambiguation). Marcocapelle (talk) 07:46, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The supposedly "very specific meaning in American Christianity" is exactly the same in most European Protestant countries and their languages, as Evangelicalism is at pains to stress. Looking at the contents of the cat, all Calvinist church people, it does seem to apply fine. Why do you think it does not? Johnbod (talk) 14:44, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Evangelicalism is typified by a personal born-again experience and the term wasn't used this way before the 18th century. It is not equivalent to Calvinism, and Calvinists in mainland Europe are hardly ever calling themselves Evangelical. Lutherans in mainland Europe do call themselves Evangelical, but still not with the same connotation as in the Anglo-American tradition. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:34, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unconvinced - the English term born again may be relatively recent, but the concept is not - see also Evangelicalism again. Historically, the vast majority of Swiss Protestants are Calvinists (the Lutherans having been agressively chased off the patch very early on). We certainly shouldn't be treating "Evangelicals" as an exclusively English-speaking group; even for here that would be outrageous. Johnbod (talk) 19:02, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • It does not have to be exclusively English-speaking as I suppose there are a lot of evangelical converts around the world due to the work of American (and possibly British) evangelical missionaries. But that has nothing to do with the Swiss people in this category. Again, Evangelicalism isn't synonymous to Calvinism and mainland European Calvinists do not identify as Evangelicals. The closest to Evangelicalism we had in mainland Europe is Pietism. I agree that the word Evangelical is older than the 18th century, that is exactly why it is in the name of most Lutheran churches, but that has no relationship with the meaning of the word nowadays. The article Evangelicalism describes how the meaning of the word has evolved. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:31, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: I think we should broaden this category to be able the broader vocation of Jewish Polish artists (instead of being a specific kind of artist). If not broadened, the category should be renamed to Jewish Polish painters. Mason (talk) 05:12, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: There is only one article that belongs in this category, Monk's Café. The rest are either redirects or not actually about the fictional restaurants themselves. Easily contained within Category:Fictional restaurants. (Oinkers42) (talk) 16:53, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Canadian LGBT people by province or territory

[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: manual merge to Category:People from FOOian province and a relevant Category:Canadian LGBT people child category (as suggested by Mason). (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 11:42, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Although these were previously deleted per Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2014 February 27#Category:LGBT people from Canada by province or territory, that was a full decade ago, and thus I don't feel comfortable just speedying them without a new discussion.
This is, however, still a violation of WP:OCLOCATION -- there is no defining relationship between one's province of birth and their LGBT identity per se, but the parent category (which is already well-diffused on other criteria) doesn't need this for size control purposes either.
As always, just because the United States does something does not automatically mean Canada has to match it: the US is almost ten times larger than Canada by population, and thus has at least ten times as many articles to worry about, so the existence of an "X by state" scheme does not mean Canada automatically has to imitate it with an "X by province" replication. Many of the people so categorized, further, do not possess notability claims that are all that closely tied to their province of origin: Jann Arden and k.d. lang and Tegan and Sara are not notable as Albertans per se, they're notable as national or international pop stars whose birthplaces have almost nothing to do with their grounds for notability; Betty Baxter attained her notability in British Columbia, not in Alberta; Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman is notable as a Hollywood actor, not as an Alberta actor; and on and so forth.
These, further, were created by an editor who has a history of being a serial overcategorizer who's had a lot of things taken to CFD, and does not have any established record of being any sort of expert in what categories Canada does or doesn't need.
These just don't pass the tests that would justify this scheme: the intersection of these people's province of birth with their LGBTness isn't defining in and of itself, but the parent category is already so well-diffused that it doesn't need this for size control either. Bearcat (talk) 02:00, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support in principle. But, because non of the categories are tagged with non-diffusion, we'll need to ensure that these people are in the relevant parents. Thus they should be selectively merged into Category:People from FOOian province and a relevant Category:Canadian LGBT people child category. Mason (talk) 03:13, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No problem with it as such, but I'm not entirely clear on what merging is particularly needed. Everything here would or should already be in appropriate LGBT and/or geographic categories anyway, so I don't really know what would be missing in most cases, though obviously people should be added to anything that is genuinely missing.

Category:Emigrants from British North America to the United States

[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 to Category:Emigrants from the British Empire to the United States. The opposition was squarely rebutted by Bearcat, giving those in support of a merge the numbers as well as the strength of arguments. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 16:56, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary level of intermediary categorization between a category and its natural parent. As I've noted more than once in other past CFD discussions, "British North America" was never a polity in its own right -- it was just a collective geographic term for all of Britain's colonies in North America, but each of those colonies was its own standalone thing and there was never any overarching entity called "British North America" that they were all subordinate parts of. That is, it was not like "England + Scotland + Wales + Northern Ireland = United Kingdom" or "Massachusetts + New York + New Jersey + California + Wyoming + 45 other US states = United States", it was always like "Thailand + Vietnam + Laos + Cambodia + Burma = Indochina" or "Jamaica + Haiti + Montserrat + St. Kitts + the Bahamas + Puerto Rico + Cuba = Caribbean". An umbrella term for multiple separate things in a region, not a "parent" term for subordinate parts of a unified thing.
There is exactly no point in history at which it was ever incorrect in any way to refer to a resident of Toronto or Montreal as "Canadian", or correct in any way to refer to them as "British North American" instead, because that simply isn't how those terms worked: Canada, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, Jamaica, et al were always each their own things, and "British North America" was just an umbrella term, and was never the nationality of any Canadian, New Brunswicker, Nova Scotian, Newfoundlander or Jamaican in any sense.
Of about 80 people in here when I found it, every last manjack one was directly recattable as Category:Pre-Confederation Canadian emigrants to the United States or one of its subcategories -- so that category can just directly stand as its own direct subcategory of the merge target, without needing this as an intermediary, because "British North America" never existed as an intermediary thing between "pre-Confederation Canada" and "British Empire". Bearcat (talk) 01:17, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom, and the dozens of CFDs that have been surrounding this point.Mason (talk) 01:19, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale is not wrong, and nominator is incidentally highly knowledgeable on the subject of Canadian history. Upper Canada, Lower Canada and the united Province of Canada each had their own legislative assemblies, New Brunswick had its own legislative assembly, Nova Scotia had its own legislative assembly, Newfoundland had its own legislative assembly, and on and so forth — but never was there ever any such thing as the "Legislative Assembly of British North America" at all. Each colony had its own direct one-on-one relationship with the motherland, and there was never any overarching "British North America" layer of government between them.
