:The result of the discussion was: rename and upmerge Bleach Trading Card Game. bibliomaniac15 03:15, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:Bleach games to :Category:Bleach (manga) video games

:Nominator's rationale: rename per WP:C2C per :Category:Bleach (manga) and :Category:Video games based on anime and manga, and move article Bleach Trading Card Game to :Category:Bleach (manga) as it is not a video game. This nomination was opposed for speedy renaming. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:04, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: redirect to :Category:Emberizidae. bibliomaniac15 06:25, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Buntings (bird)}}

:Nominator's rationale: The text of this category includes "This category collects birds called "buntings" and/or traditionally placed in the Emberizidae, regardless of their actual relationships. Its contents do not form a natural group ...". It thus fails SHAREDNAME and OVERLAPCAT (with :Category:Emberizidae). DexDor ^(talk) 20:50, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|NBA players' association current and former members}}

:Nominator's rationale: This is redundant to :Category:National Basketball Association players. All NBA players are members of the union. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:13, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

:* Where is your evidence that all NBA players are in the union? SomeBodyAnyBody05 (talk) 18:36, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

:::* I could redo into to Category:NBA players' association presidents and vice presidents since there is only have been a select of this group SomeBodyAnyBody05 (talk) 19:18, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

::::* {{ping|SomeBodyAnyBody05}} Having a category called :Category:Presidents of the National Basketball Players Association to match :Category:Presidents of the National Football League Players Association would fit well under :Category:Leaders of American trade unions from my perspective. RevelationDirect (talk) 10:44, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

:::::*@ User:RevelationDirect I'm surprised that us Wikipedians haven't created :Category:Presidents of the National Basketball Players Association yet, but would it be defining to have a category featuring the vice presidents as well? But the subcategory itself would fit well. ֆօʍɛɮօɖʏǟռʏɮօɖʏ05 (talk) 13:50, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

::::::* The VPs I looked at seemed defined by being players but not by their union involvement. (The Executive Directors generally do seem definined by the players association and there are MLB and NFL categories for ED.) RevelationDirect (talk) 22:38, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

• Speedy rename per WP:C2C, per convention of :Category:Buildings and structures by university or college.

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Terrorist incidents attributed to the Incel subculture}}

:Nominator's rationale: This category was evidently created in a bit of a rush. Many of the articles that were put under this category (but have since been removed), particularly the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2009_Collier_Township_shooting&diff=prev&oldid=957867038 2009 Collier Township shooting] and the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2014_Isla_Vista_killings&diff=prev&oldid=957867200 2014 Isla Vista killings], have not been officially, retroactively recognized as terrorist attacks by authorities and/or WP:RS, even after years. The only one that would qualify for such a categorization at this time would be the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2020_Toronto_machete_attack&diff=prev&oldid=957942878 2020 Toronto machete attack], which is being prosecuted as a terrorist attack. At this point, the success of the category is highly dependent on the incel ideology being recognized as a terrorist ideology, which has yet to happen. Love of Corey (talk) 07:13, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

• Comment - Per policy, I've re-added the category to all of the articles affected until a consensus is reached. Love of Corey (talk) 07:15, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

::My bad. Love of Corey (talk) 07:17, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

• Delete – I understand what is meant by incel subculture, but it seems ephemeral compared to a terrorist organization who claims responsibility for an act. How do we determine the true motivations of the person causing the act? What makes sexual frustration the primary factor versus other reasons for homicidal action? A list allows for these nuances along with sources, while categorization does not. Senator2029 “Talk” 12:03, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
• Comment. The whole set of "Terrorist incidents" categories is a horrible POV mess, in which the term "terrorism" is repeatedly used as if it was an objectively-assessed fact, rather than a value-laden pejorative term. I don't see this particular category as being significantly more problematic than the rest of that category tree. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:37, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
• Comment - hello all, I'm the one who started the category after a brief discussion on the incel talk page, which can be viewed here. I thought that it was odd that there was not a category linking together the various incidents attributed to the incel movement or subculture. If there is contention over the use of the word "terrorist", than perhaps this category could be moved to a different title, such as :Category:Violent incidents attributed to the Incel subculture or just simply :Category:Incidents attributed to the Incel subculture. Inter&anthro (talk) 15:47, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
• While I am reading the articles, "incel" seems to be barely defining. So delete, or if kept rename to something non-terrorist that fits the existing category terminology e.g. :Category:Incel-related attacks. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:57, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

::A renaming would be just as problematic, considering the Collier Township and Isla Vista attacks occurred before the incel subculture became prominent. I highly doubt either of the perpetrators were aware of it, judging by the WP:RS on their articles. Love of Corey (talk) 18:16, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

:::Hence why the word attributed is used. While the Collier Township and Isla Vista perpetrators might not have associated themselves with the incel subculture per se, they are still highly idealized by members of this subculture and shared similar sentiments. Almost every news article about the incel movement mentions the either the Collier Township and especially the Isla Vista attacks. Inter&anthro (talk) 23:55, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

::::The thing is, "attributed" means to be linked to something, essentially. How can these guys be linked to something that didn't exist at the time? Love of Corey (talk) 00:28, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

::::* Ok, so that is apparently one of the reasons that the articles in the category do not prominently discuss incel. So this is more reason to delete the category per WP:NONDEF. Marcocapelle (talk) 02:57, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

:::::Pretty much. Love of Corey (talk) 03:22, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

• Delete per above. The articles I checked were already well categorized by location, year, type of attack etc. If not deleted then rename to something like "Violent incidents ..." or "Murders ...". DexDor ^(talk) 19:55, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
• Delete. Celibacy can be attributed to be involuntary for so many people that there is a serious problem in definition here. I vividly remember that the 2016 Nice truck attack perpetrator's recent separation from his wife was widely cited among the chief factors leading to this terrible event, and I therefore guess that it must not be hard to find someone from the "incel culture" ready to recognize him as one of them, and maybe they did. That's how grey this notion gets. Also, to talk about terrorism one would expect a minima the intention to use terror in the general population for a political gain, and I do not see the will to reach either terror or political gain in these incidents. Anger and misanthropy do not equal terrorism. Place Clichy (talk) 19:23, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
• Delete -- If kept rename to :Category:Multiple murders by involuntary celebates. Incel is an obscure neologism. However, I doubt there is any such unified them as "incel culture". Peterkingiron (talk) 16:51, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
