The result of the debate was {{{1|}}} rename/merge as nominated --Kbdank71 14:58, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

:Category:Wikipedians who like LOST to :Category:Wikipedians who like Lost

  • Rename - This probably could be speedied, but I thought someone might insist that "LOST" is the correct name. I know that it appears that way on the show, but I think that's just a stylization of the title. In most media, it appears as "Lost", and that's the title of its article and article namespace category as well. —Cswrye 21:08, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Rename - In my opinion a category's spelling should almost always match the spelling in the title of its associated main article. Since the article is spelled "Lost", category names which include the show's title should likewise be spelled that way. Dugwiki 22:38, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Rename. Should have caught that the last time through.--Mike Selinker 22:46, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

The result of the debate was {{{1|}}} Delete. --WinHunter (talk) 10:55, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

{{lc|Animals with ability to swim}}

  • Delete, meaningless categorization. UtherSRG (talk) 20:53, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - seems too broad and a bit ill-defined. Wouldn't all fish be included here? What about animals that CAN swim but don't like to, or don't swim very well? In fact, can't most animals swim in one way or another if they really, really need to? I'm sure some can't, but they've got to be in the minority. Seems like a really large category. Dugwiki 22:41, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • How about Animals who can't swim worth crap? =) --Chris (talk) 23:06, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. The cat doesn't last too long in water. Pavel Vozenilek 01:33, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - pointless category - would include most animals and be meaningless - Peripitus (Talk) 08:30, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. The discussion on where to draw the line in categories for "Fauna of geographic region X" is a legitimate ongoing one. If we start making categories for animals that swim, walk, and breathe we really will end up with several screens worth of categories per article. --Aranae 08:48, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - if this is kept, what's next? Animals with the ability to smell? BabyNuke 09:54, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep First: it needs to be renamed to something a little less broad, I suggest something like :Category:Land animals with the ability to swim, or :Category:Mammals with the ability to swim. second: That title needs to be written correctly. third: It needs more animals in it, and we have to be sure that the animals that are being added belong there. ILovePlankton 11:27, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • On the other hand, if you're going to rename the category and change the category definition as suggested, then you're really just making a new category altogether. Either way, the current category should be deleted, and after deletion it can possibly be replaced by something more specific.Dugwiki 21:20, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Or add animals with the ability to walk, etc. ike9898 14:24, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Over-broad category. Hanbrook 19:10, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, too broad and not a notable characteristic. --musicpvm 23:08, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Rename to :Category:Land animals with the ability to swim per ILovePlankton. I'd suggest vertebrates, but I think the idea seems to be air-breathing animals. - Jc37 00:14, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Rename it's not a pointless category simply because it's too broad. agree with renaming possibilities stated by users above. Chensiyuan 13:37, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per Dugwiki. If you're unhappy with a category as it is, you shouldn't vote "keep but change it completely," because that will just make it more likely that this will be closed as "no consensus." If what you want to change it to is not subject to the problems that are causing others to vote to delete, then just create the category you want and let this be deleted.

  • Merge - If you read the main article, Beat 'em ups, the very first line in the intro says that Beat 'em up games are also known as "scrolling fighting games".

  • Delete Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems like a totally subjective category, nor do I off-hand see a practical use for it either. How do you objectively verify someone is in this category? And even if you could be objective about it, what would be the point other than as a way to irritate people on the list? I'm voting to delete the category altogether unless someone can explain what I'm overlooking. Dugwiki 15:12, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Changing vote to Rename - Thanks for the clarification. Since the category is self-selected only I don't have a problem with it. People can describe themselves however they like. I do agree the name isn't all that great, though. Usually "Grammar Nazi" has a negative connotation, as in someone being irritatingly nit-picky about grammar. Maybe something more positive sounding, like "Grammar Mavens"? Just a thought. Dugwiki 22:58, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Mostly one template here: Wikipedians who use X. I like “use” because it doesn’t distinguish between contributors and lurkers. Programmers should be separate, of course, but that’s another nomination. I also didn’t like the two I suggested deleting, because the many categories of browsers suggest that if you’re not using IE, you can put yourself somewhere else. I fixed those to renames after some objections.--Mike Selinker 02:46, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

  • We can't merge :category:Livejournal users into that, as it's full of encyclopedia subjects, not Wikipedians. I listed it for deletion a few days ago. I agree about :category:Wikipedians interested in LiveJournal, but I got talked out of it last time.--Mike Selinker 03:37, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Rename all nominated for renaming, but keep the two categories nominated for deletion. "Not using" sends a different message compared with "using": it means the user refuses to use the named browser for some reason. As an anology, to say "I don't eat chicken" doesn't mean "I eat beef, pork, fish, and all other food in the world". --Pkchan 06:30, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Rename and delete per nom. For the two deletions, I don't think it's a good idea to categorize people by what they don't do since that is essentially an infinite number of categories. If they are kept, the names that I would recommend are :Category:Wikipedians who refuse to use FireFox and :Category:Wikipedians who refuse to use Internet Explorer since those are closer to the meanings that the categories try to convey. --Cswrye 16:43, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep :category:Wikipedians not using IE. Many of these are next to worthless if you ask me, but I do not see why we should to single-out the non-affirmative ones for deletion. With over 200 members, not using IE is among the most populated of the lot (it is fed by a userbox). To match, I suppose we should rename it (and possibly :category:Wikipedians not using FireFox) to Wikipedians who do not use. ×Meegs 01:08, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

==Golden Age comics related==

:The following discussion is an archived debate regarding the category above. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the category's talk page (if any). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was {{{1|}}} Keep. Runcorn 19:27, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

  • :Category:Marvel Golden Age characters
  • :Category:Golden Age supervillains
  • :Category:Golden Age comics creators
  • I'm arguing for deletion on a number of points. There's been discussion of these comics terms before, golden age, silver age and whatever we're calling the period after the silver age now, and it's felt these are peacock terms, and should be avoided.
  • First up, there's no clear definition. I can cite many arguments where scholars disagree on the definitions, but for a one stop link on the problems see [http://onceuponadime.com/hist/ages.htm One For The Ages], a paper which originally appeared in The International Journal of Comic Art volume 5, issue 2.
  • Secondly, every medium, every area of cultural value, cites itself as having had a golden age, and the term is somewhat worthless, in that it implies a value judgement and thus isn't something we should be doing here on Wikipedia, since we aim for a neutral point of view.
  • Thirdly, what are we attempting to categorise? Characters who were created in Marvel's golden age, or Marvel characters created in the reputed golden age of comics? Wouldn't it be easier to categorise characters per decade, and allow scholars to research that way and make their value judgements on what era such characters were created in? Should we enforce a disputed judgement on readers? Should we present a contentious term as legitimate through its use in our category structure? Would we allow a category of the golden age of sculpture or photography?
  • Fourthly, it is a symptom of Wikipedia:Systemic bias. It represents only American comics. Should we present a golden age of comics which ignores examples of people working outside of America? Are American comics somehow of more value?
  • For an example of how hard it is to define, read the description from :Category:Golden Age comics creators the seminal period from the 1930s creation of the first newsstand comics to the decline of comics popularity in the late-1940s/early-1950s The category itself is unclear as to where it begins and ends. Hiding Talk 00:32, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. But it's a meaningful term to comics fans. We don't describe them as World War II comics, or early comics, or anything else. They're comics from the golden age.--Mike Selinker 02:12, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment But they aren't meaningful terms to comics scholars, as I point out with my link. They are in fact very contentious terms in comics scholarship and I fail to see why categorising this way is any better than by decade. We certainly talk of comics in the 1930s and 1940s. Nobody is 100% clear on what belongs in a golden age category, and categories should carry a better degree of certainty than that. And it also doesn't address the systemic bias. For example, British comics had a much earlier golden age. Hiding Talk 08:08, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. IF it's specifically defined as characters published during the Golden Age (June 1938 - Sept. 1956), then keep because that would be specifically and clearly defined, not requiring original research. However, if it includes retcons, then delete because it would be an unmaintainable mess with no end of argument. (Past Sept. 1956 becomes arguable because the Silver Age began the next month, however Golden Age characters continued getting published beyond that.) Doczilla 04:11, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Your definition is not clearly defined, since there isn't agreement between scholars that that is the cut off point, and some characters which were first published before your date are thought of as silver age characters, and some from after the line are thought of as golden age. This is a loose term which applies to only a very limited set of comics, specifically the American superhero comic books, it is poorly defined and it disregards other countries and genres within the media. Hiding Talk 08:08, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak delete. These ages - Golden, Bronze, Silver and Modern seem to be reasonably recognised terms, but their boundaries are a bit too rubbery for me. Categories should at least try to be unambiguous. I don't see that the project will be significantly damaged by these not being there. -- I@n 13:23, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, if years are objectively defined in category definition - I don't have a problem with keeping this categories if the category specifically defines what years constitute each period. Note that the category definition does not have to agree with what "scholars" might or might not say the terms mean. It just has to be a consistent, objective definition that serves as a useful way to subdivide comic books. In this case, dividing comic books by 20 year period or so can prove useful, I think. As far as the phrases "Golden" and "Silver", I don't think they're "peacock terms". Rather they simply refer to how old the comics are, analagous to "Golden anniversary" being the 50th anniversay and "Silver anniversay" being the 25th anniversay. Golden here simply means "older" than Silver, not necessarilly better. Dugwiki 15:24, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment, The terms don't equate to how old they are, they refer to the quality, basically the golden age is a reference to the Golden Age (metaphor), with the silver age being a second golden age of lesser quality. At least, that's how it's referred to by those who use the terms. It also only applies to American superhero comics, another point you fail to address. I'd also have to ask how we can define these terms as you state and not fall foul of original research. Hiding Talk 16:22, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • I think we're talking about the fringes of the category. For the bulk of characters, they fall squarely into the uncontroversial time period (just before World War II to just a few years after). It's possible to disagree about, say, a character created in 1954, but not one created in 1943. That's a Golden Age character.--Mike Selinker 17:32, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - From my experience, the terms "Golden Age" and "Silver Age" are rather important concepts in the field of comics. ("Bronze Age" and "Modern Age" are more ambiguous and less important.) I don't mean to diminish Hiding's argument, but from my experience, they are often used by comics experts and fans to address many comics and the issues surrounding them. The terms are also used in many comics-related articles, and there are articles for them. They don't refer to the quality of the comics, but rather to their style, in terms of the art, the types of characters, and the topics addressed by them. In fact, because of issues with the Comics Code Authority, many people would say that more recent comics are better than those of the Silver Age. I know that there is some blurriness of the boundaries between each age, but many categories have some level of subjectivity, and while there will probably be some disputes, I think that the majority of the content in these categories will be uncontested. I'm honestly not sure if the terms include foreign comics. If they do, there's no problem. If not, that should be apparent on the relevant Golden Age and Silver Age articles. If that's still controversial, maybe they could be renamed "American Golden Age" and "American Silver Age". --Cswrye 17:50, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. The terms are certainly exclusive of other countries, in Britain the golden age of comics is regarded as being the 1920s, and not only are they exclusive of other countries they apply to one genre only, that of superhero comics. I don't dispute the terms are important to fans, but the disputes on beginnings and endings should be discussed in an article, not in the category space. They are not of great use to comics scholars, however, and are seen as contentious and impractical. And what you mention as being style is what I mean by the phrase quality, those qualities and their differences are what separate the eras, and are qualitative judgements. The terms are not based on periods of time but qualitative differences. Hiding Talk 23:41, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • These are important terms in the history of comics. Because scholars can debate the cut-off point, we have to restrict the endpoint to the earliest possible date, which would be the month before the Silver Age Flash debuted. No matter how long the Golden Age took to peter out after that, September 1956 was still part of the Golden Age. Doczilla 17:06, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • I'd put the latest-possible-end here: "The Golden Age was definitely over by 1954, when the book Seduction of the Innocent, by Dr. Fredric Wertham, appeared." That seems quite non-controversial. (By the way, it occurs to me after all this that I don't think anyone's suggested categorizing characters by decade of origin. Would anyone dispute the encyclopedic value of :category:Superheroes created in the 1940s?)--Mike Selinker 19:03, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • I had mentioned that earlier in the debate, and it's certainly my view on resolving this issue. It's clear, unequivocal and allows for a more uniform approach, as when we approach later "ages" we don't have to adopt names which are ill-formed. Hiding Talk 21:56, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Comics get priced according to these classifications! Have you ever read a price guide? People buy and sell comics according to whether they're Golden Age or Silver Age. I wish I had my Overstreet guide handy. These terms are more important than a WHOLE lot of stuff that people agree belongs in Wikipedia. The Golden Age (comics) article should better note the range of dates suggested by reputable sources, but in terms of the associated categories, any date that falls within the range of possible dates might be okay. Mike, where did you that quote about 1954? I've seen sources that have it run right up to October '56. Anyway, like I said, the date issue belongs in the Golden Age article. For our purposes in this discussion, all I really need to say is keep these. They matter. Clean them up, sure. Just don't let any characters created outside the 1938-1954 or 1938-1956 range stay in those categories. Wryspy 07:45, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
  • The quote's from the Golden Age (comics) article itself.--Mike Selinker 15:02, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Darn. I liked the quote. However, Wikipedia guidelines are clear that Wikipedia isn't supposed to be its own source of citation. Now, because that word "definitely" invokes POV, I'll change it to "may have been" pending an actual source. Wryspy 20:07, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
