Category:Mesoamerican codices[edit]

The result of the debate was keep. the wub "?!" 16:27, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Mesoamerican codices to Category:Mesoamerican pictorial documents
Nominator's rationale: The term codex, as used in the context of Mesoamerica, is kind of ill-defined. It certainly doesn't match up with the standard definition, since many of these aren't books at all. It's mostly used to describe documents in native writing systems (regardless of medium or format), but is also sometimes used for alphabetic texts. I'm proposing that the category be made specifically for the pictorial documents, with textual ones put in Category:Mesoamerican historical documents. Ptcamn 22:35, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep These are indeed not always standard codices, but the description of them as codices is well established, and most of them have it in their name (perversely, books that actually are codices are not normally so called in groupings). The couple of items that are text only should be moved to Category:Mesoamerican historical documents, but the pictorial ones should remain as they are. The description should be added to to clarify the specialised use of the term codex. Johnbod 01:45, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
PS Attempts (now reverted by others) by the nominator to remove the stable paragraph in codex covering these will not help his cause - rather the reverse. Johnbod 11:27, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I just thought it was bizarre for the article to say, basically, "Codices were made in Mesoamerica as late as the 16th century. Actually Mesoamerican codices aren't codices at all." The Mesoamerican codices have nothing to do with the topic of the article beyond sharing a name. They should be on the disambiguation page, not the main article, which uses the standard definition.
Yes, pictorial documents do have "codex" in their names, but so do non-pictorial documents. We don't yet have an article on the Codex Chimalpopoca, but if we did, where would it go? In Category:Mesoamerican historical documents because it's text or in Category:Mesoamerican codices because it happens to have the word "codex" in its name? To me, either option would seem strange. --Ptcamn 10:19, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Like many articles, codex covers differing uses of the term in the title. I don't know the Codex Chimalpopoca. I think the pictorial/non-pictorial split is tenable, but if there are many text-only manuscripts in local languages - not Spanish - maybe these should go there too. Johnbod 16:25, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Johnbod. While not conforming to the normal definition of codex, it is the usual term in Mesoamerican scholarship. --Rindis 16:48, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I agree with Ptcamn that the application/definition of the term "codex" can be vague, however the term is so entrenched in Mesoamerican literature that it seems a little convoluted to avoid using it. A description on the category's page could be used to clarify the intended scope of the category, once that's fleshed out a little more.--cjllw ʘ TALK 04:33, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Destructive cults (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete - beyond the issues with the use of the word "cult" in category names, the lead article defines "destructive cult" as being one of a "small number of religious groups that have intentionally killed people, either the group members themselves or others outside of the group." This definition applies to huge numbers of religious groups, including almost every denomination of many of the world's major religions. I am cognizant of the discussion that centered around this category but in the long run this scheme isn't going to work. Otto4711 18:20, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Distillery F.C. players (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Merge into Category:Lisburn Distillery F.C. players, convention of Category:Footballers in Northern Ireland by club. -- Prove It (talk) 14:13, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Like many clubs it has moved twice (what 3 miles, perhaps?) and has changed its name. But I doubt it told its supporters they should go away as it was now a different club. Are we expected to have pre- & post- Emirates Stadium categories for Arsenal FC? Johnbod 01:49, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
According to the club article it was in Lisburn (city council area), at Lambeg, from 1980, before moving within the city, and changing its name, in 1999. Johnbod 17:58, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes but before this, the original Distillery F.C. was founded in 1890 and based in Distillery Street, Belfast, over ten miles away in a different city. All the players currently in this category played for Distillery when it was based in Belfast and therefore it would be inaccurate to describe them as Lisburn Distillery players. Djln --Djln 22:09, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
So are you saying the category is really Category:Distillery F.C. players, up to their move in 1980? And we need another category for Category:Distillery F.C. players, between the move to Lambeg in 1980 and the name change in 1999 ? Johnbod 23:55, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • No offence mate, but you really need to get a life. Are you just spilting hairs for the sake of it ? The reasons behind the category are clear and simple and you have not offered any good reason to delete it. The club was called Distillery up until 1999 and any player who played for the club before that should be included in this category. Djln --Djln 00:19, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - "current" categories are by definition problematic and in this instance the existence of a list is superior to cluttering articles with a category. Otto4711 05:27, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: redundant to existing lists, templates and series boxes, which are more than adequate to navigation (and are better organized to boot). This category serves little purpose except to increase Wikipedia's biannual maintenance requirements. Xtifr tälk 20:05, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was rename/merge as nominated to fix pluralization --Kbdank71 16:12, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Queen consorts to Category:Queens consort
Nominator's rationale: The usual plural is "queens consort". Psychonaut 11:34, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - some digging turns up Category:Kings consort which I have now placed in the parent royal consorts category. I seem to recall that we discussed a Prince consorts category a while back and the outcome was to upmerge it to the royal consorts parent, but I'm not finding the CFD for it. I note that Category:English royal consorts includes both male and female consorts. In the face of the existence of a male equivalent category I'm not sure that merging queens while leaving kings is the best answer and perhaps this nomination should be withdrawn in favor of a fuller discussion of the broader structure. However, I strongly object to the simplistic notion that the upmerge suggestion is motivated by "political correctness." Otto4711 13:01, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that tidying. Since the nom just wanted a rename, I suspect this one will run its course & it would be for others to propose merges. Johnbod 13:18, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was rename/merge as nominated --Kbdank71 16:06, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest merging Category:People who were raised as children in the Children of God to Category:Members of the Children of God
Nominator's rationale: Merge - People in most other religions and spiritual movements are not sorted according to the religion that was used to bring them up, and it is unclear why this movement should be an exception. The "children" category should be moved into its parent category (no pun intended). (Also note that the parent category is nominated for renaming below.) Dr. Submillimeter 10:00, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The communal, removed from parents, nature of this particular group's way of raising children is not unique, but is sufficiently distinctive in Europe & North America to make it a defining characteristic (without going into other more extreme aspects). The topic has been the subject of at least one good tv documentary. Secondly the group seems less effective than most at retaining as members those raised inside it, so the merged category is not appropriate. Even though past members should be included in the "members" cat, I don't think those merely brought within the group by their parents as children should count. Not all the dates are clear in some articles, but for example the parents of Rose McGowan appear to have left the group when she was 5, so she should not be called a "member" in my view. Johnbod 17:35, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment - What Johnbod has said about this group could also be said about many other small spiritual or religious groups, such as the Hutterites, the Bruderhof, etc. Why should this category be treated differently? Also, why arbitrarily decide who should be included or excluded based on when their parents left the group? Thjat type of subjectivity leads to edit wars. Dr. Submillimeter 19:08, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Actually these seem very different: "Bruderhof life is built around the family..." - exactly the opposite in fact. Those two just have their own schools, like, um, Catholics etc. A better comparison might be with early Kibbutzes, but without the persistent accusations and evidence of routine sexual abuse of young children the CoG are famous for. I don't understand the second point. Johnbod 19:19, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - The comparison to the Kibbutzes is more accurate, but the Hutterites and Bruderhof are still communal peoples. (I have first hand experience and printed references to back me up.) This is beginning to get into a discussion on whether a society is communal enough to have its children in a separate category. Dr. Submillimeter 22:01, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Actually, the comparison of the Hutterites and Bruderhof to Catholics is incredibly inaccurate. The Hutterites and Bruderhof live separately from other US/Canadian people in communes or colonies which contain multiple families that live, work, eat, and pray together. It is hardly comparable to Catholicism. Dr. Submillimeter 22:23, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Or to the CoG I hope. Johnbod 01:51, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or Merge. Delete since this appears to be over categorization and not a defining characteristic for all of these people. If kept, rename and include everyone who was a member and that was a defining characteristic. Vegaswikian 07:05, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest merging Category:Current California State Senators to Category:California State Senators
Nominator's rationale: Merge - People in specific careers are generally not sorted according to status (such as "current", "former", "retired", "dead", etc.). The category should be upmerged accordingly. Dr. Submillimeter 09:54, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was upmerge to Category:NCAA bowl game venues --Kbdank71 16:01, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Previous NCAA bowl game venues to Category:Former NCAA bowl game venues
Nominator's rationale: Rename - "Previous" makes little sense when taken out of context. However, "former" makes more , as it more clearly indicates that the venues are no longer used for bowl games. Therefore, I recommend changing the category name. (However, it may or may not be appropriate to delete this category following the criteria for venues at Wikipedia:Overcategorization. I also do not know if separating these venues into "current" (Current NCAA bowl game venues) and "former" is a good idea.) Dr. Submillimeter 09:51, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Current Members of the United States Senate Committee on Armed Services (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete - This is the only category for members of a US congressional committee. As these people serve on several committees, having categories for all of these things would be cumbersome (especially since the names are so long). A complete list is already given on United States Senate Committee on Armed Services, and the list is easily reached through the articles on the individual people. The category is unnecessary and should be deleted. Dr. Submillimeter 09:45, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Delete and salt this recreation of category that has been deleted at least twice. Yet another performer by performance category. Yet another category created by what has to be yet another sockpuppet of User:EJBanks/User:Creepy Crawler/User:Fatone411/User:BarackObamaFan/User:Batman fan/User:TheJediCouncil. He has been permanently banned under several names for, among many other things, stubbornly recreating articles and categories. Doczilla 07:13, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
