:The result of the discussion was: keep. While the American English spelling doesn't have an "a," this does match the article title--Mike Selinker (talk) 14:15, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
:Propose renaming :Category:Gynaecology to :Category:Gynecology
:Nominator's rationale: Rename. This was speedy renamed after the discussion was aborted as a C2D. However this is a clear case of WP:ENGVAR and should never have been renamed. I could take this to WP:DRV, but let's just discuss this here. The category was created in May of 2004 and was at that name ever since. A no consensus here should result in the category being restored to the old name. Vegaswikian (talk) 23:00, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
- Keep – the category should have matched the article in 2004 (:Gynaecology, :Gynecology). Occuli (talk) 23:12, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
- Weak keep I'm always in favor of article and category names matching--why wouldn't they? —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:05, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- Keep to match article name. --Bduke (Discussion) 06:52, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. Let's correct the mistake. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 16:44, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- Comment. It doesn't make much sense to me to preserve ENGVAR differences between article names and category names. The category should be named whatever variation of English the article name uses. Good Ol’factory (talk) 20:55, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- Keep to match article name. Cjc13 (talk) 21:07, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- Keep Call me dense but I simply don't get the nominator's rationale. Surely it makes sense to match the names of the category and the main article. I don't remember the letter of WP:ENGVAR but I'm pretty sure the spirit is "don't confuse anybody and when that's impossible confuse as few as possible". Since there's a consensus that spelling it gynaecology is less confusing on average, why move away from that? Pichpich (talk) 02:33, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
- Keep - as I said in the discussion on 24 August, 2011, main article appears to be stable at the "ae" spelling. The category should match that. Beeswaxcandle (talk) 05:36, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
- Keep -- The article is spelt :Gynaecology. This should match. The Commons cat does have the suggested spelling, but it is an inappropriate one. The word is from the Greek Gynaiky (ΓΥΝΑΙΚΗ). Medieval Latin convered the classical Latin ae to e, but I do not think this is appropriate for a word transliterated from Greek. It is the Commons Cat that needs to be changed. Can some one do a CFD there? Peterkingiron (talk) 00:00, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

:{{Lc|Truro Cathedral}}
:Nominator's rationale: Delete per WP:SMALLCAT. Not likely to be further populated -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 22:48, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
Comment. :Category:Deans of Truro and :Category:Bishops of Truro are currently subcategories of :Category:Truro but could be subcategories of :Category:Truro Cathedral. An alternative is to create :Category:Diocese of Truro, as there is an article for Diocese of Truro but no category (see :Category:Dioceses of the Church of England). Cjc13 (talk) 20:57, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
Move to :Category:Diocese of Truro, as per above rationale and include :Category:Deans of Truro and :Category:Bishops of Truro as subcategories. Zangar (talk) 13:06, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
- Rename to :Category:Diocese of Truro and re-purpose per Cjc13's sagacious remarks. Occuli (talk) 09:08, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
- Rename and repurpose -- The bishop is not a Cathedral official and so should not be in a Cathedral cat. In theory it could be populated by cats for precentors, organists, and prebendaries (or are they canons?), but most candidates will be NN. Peterkingiron (talk) 00:03, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

- Delete this and all the categories under and including :Category:Prajapati people (except the clan one if it finds its way back in there), per consensus at WP:India and the acceptance of that consensus on not classifying people by caste at all CFDs (e.g. 1, 2, 3; there are a couple more I think, but I can't remember off-hand). —SpacemanSpiff 08:41, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
- Delete all per nom and per SpacemanSpiff. It's my understanding that we do not categorize people by Indian caste. I've added all the other categories under {{cat|Prajapati people}}. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:19, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
- Delete the general view seems to be that caste categories should not be created to hold biographical articles.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:58, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

:Delete :Category:1960 in the Cold War & :Category:1961 in the Cold War & :Category:Cold War by year
:Nominator's rationale: The two categories for 1960 & 1961 were created in 2007 and have not been extended; I do not think that they will ever include all the years 1947 (or 1946?) to 1991 as the series should. Hugo999 (talk) 12:35, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

- Keep - I am, to be sure, chagrined to have left these categories in a such a partially-completed state. So thanks for notifying me, Hugo999. Now that it has been brought to my attention, I will make an effort to flesh them out more fully. I have also notified another editor, who just created two new sub-cats this very day, and asked for his assistance in this endeavor. (Hopefully he will respond here in a timely fashion.)

:Rename :Category:Cold War by period to :Category:History of the Cold War
:Nominator's rationale: none provided by Hugo999 on 24 September 2011. 64.134.156.175 (talk) 16:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Keep name - Further comment: It wouldn't really make a whole lot of sense to have a Category called "History of the Cold War", since the entire contents of :Category:Cold War are, in fact, history. The same reason we don't have :Category:History of World War II or :Category:History of the American Civil War. Cgingold (talk) 23:10, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
- Upmerge to :Category:Cold War. These are important articles—essentially a broken-up series of head articles—and belong in the main category. :Category:History by period isn't where this should go, since those categories are about things that happened over multiple periods of history, not in a continuous and fairly short period of time.--Mike Selinker (talk) 13:54, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
:*I certainly don't disagree with you on the importance of the articles, Mike. I suppose they could go in BOTH this category and the head category. Of course, part of the reason for creating this category in the first place was that :Category:Cold War was (and still is) totally bursting at the seams with articles. An other thing that's useful about the category is that it does provide a point of access thru :Category:History by period, which is of real value IMO. Cgingold (talk) 09:17, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
:*BTW, I neglected to mention that the sub-cat, :Category:Cold War by year has been Kept (above). THIS category allows those sub-cats and articles to be grouped together with those head-articles in one convenient package. Cgingold (talk) 09:26, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

:Propose deleting :Category:Military units and formations of the Cold War & :Category:Military units and formations of the United States in the Cold War
:Nominator's rationale: There is only one subcategory, that for the United States, with only five articles in it. Potentially it could include most current US units and formations, plus extra categories for all the other countries who are/were members of NATO or the Warsaw Pact, but it is doubtful if any more of the possible units/formations and countries will be added. Hugo999 (talk) 12:35, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
:*False "Nominator's rationale" 1: Underpopulated Category is not a valid rationale for deleting a category that meets the criteria for inclusion in its parent categories. 64.134.156.175 (talk) 16:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
:*False "Nominator's rationale" 2: Fabricated conjecture that "it is doubtful if any more of the possible units/formations and countries will be added" is absolutely false, as numerous articles meet the scope of the category (e.g., essentially all of post-war USSR military units). In particular, Template:Category diffuse applies to numerous categories which have Cold War units/formations, which is specifically for making the probability likely that "more...will be added". 64.134.156.175 (talk) 16:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Support - this is far too general. Possibly in the future we might consider recreating for specific wars, such as the Dominican Republic intervention or similar. Buckshot06 (talk) 07:38, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- False "Support" Rationale 1: Category is not in any way "general", "too general", or "far too general"; as the Cold War is a specific, relatively short era (cf. :Category:Hundred Years War in the long history of military units and formations (i.e., warfare) and had an extensive number of specific units and formations, many of which have wikiarticles. 64.134.156.175 (talk) 16:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- False "Support" Rationale 2: "Possibly in the future we might consider...for specific wars" is invalid, as categories for units/formations of specific wars were considered, and established, in Wikipediafor in the past -- e.g., :Category:Military units and formations of World War I, ...World War II, ...Hundred Years War, etc. 64.134.156.175 (talk) 16:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Delete this is not useful. We have categories for military units and formations by country and by year created. I do not think there is a need to make them also by war, especially when it was a non-declared war that dragged on for 40 or so years.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:03, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
- False "Delete" Rationale 1: "this is not useful" is entirely inaccurate, as the categories perform their utility of subdividing specific articles so readers do not have to view through them in the parent category. 64.134.156.175 (talk) 16:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- False "Delete" Rationale 2: "I do not think there is a need to make them also by war" directly contradicts the parent category :Category:Military units and formations by war, which is not limited to only declared wars or to wars of shorter duration than "40 or so years". 64.134.156.175 (talk) 16:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Keep - Both categories are valid groupings for the great number of articles and subcategories that need diffused from various parent categories for this war/era. 64.134.156.175 (talk) 16:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Keep. I don't see a difference between this and the other by-war categories. We have lots of categories for Cold War-era equipment and activity, so even though it was an undeclared war, it still fits the scheme--Mike Selinker (talk) 13:56, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: upmerge. In the case of the plants category, the upmerge is to the various regional categories of carnivorous plants. If anything was not correctly categorized as either edible or carnivorous, please fix those errors.--Mike Selinker (talk) 14:09, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
:{{Lc|Edible carnivorous fungi}}
:{{Lc|Edible carnivorous plants}}
:Nominator's rationale: Delete. This category, along with the new {{cl|Edible carnivorous plants}}, is a meaningless intersection. Both should be deleted. Very few of the plants (if ANY) are actually eaten regularly. And of the fungi, edibility and carnivory (or nematophagy) are unrelated. In fact, it would probably be easier to make a list of the carnivorous plants and fungi that are not edible (but I would argue against that, too). I'm also unaware of any reliable source that makes any claims about the plant species' edibility. Rkitko (talk) 01:06, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
::By that reasoning, the following pages also should be deleted"
:::Category:Edible nuts and seeds
::True, there is no single source that defines edibility for the millions of species in the world, but if there is a source, it will be on the page for the specific species. That's why a category is appropriate more than a list.--Nessie (talk) 02:58, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
:::See this discussion about the former List of plants with edible leaves. I especially like Casliber's comment: "I hate some of these pages - "edible" (loosely defined) can mean almost anything which lacks a disagreeable taste and toxic compounds, which could cover an insane number of plant species...." That's why saying something is "edible" is almost meaningless. First, it assumes we mean edible by humans and second, it lacks specificity on dosage and preparation (e.g. apple seeds are edible, but too many would cause harm and cassava must be cooked before being considered edible). Rkitko (talk) 03:31, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
- Delete per nom; there is nothing showing the intersection between what we eat and what we eat eats in outside of (perhaps) the animal kingdom; :Category:Edible plants that thrive on ruminant dung, anyone? Carlossuarez46 (talk) 16:48, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
Category:Non-talk pages that are automatically signed
- Upmerge per nom to the parents. There is nothing wrong with :Category:Edible fungi and :Category:Carnivorous fungi; the objection is to forming their intersection, per WP:OCAT#Trivial intersection. Occuli (talk) 09:51, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
:*Note that upmerging would not be ideal at least for the carnivorous plants. All of the articles currently within {{cl|Edible carnivorous plants}} are found within subcategories of {{cl|Carnivorous plants}} or, in the case of several of them, including Proboscidea, are not considered carnivorous.
