:* Propose renaming :Category:10th-century archbishops in Germany to :Category:10th-century Roman Catholic archbishops in the Holy Roman Empire

:Nominator's rationale: No such state as Germany in the 10th century. Was part of the Holy Roman Empire. Laurel Lodged (talk) 14:34, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

• Germany wasnt a state until 1870. If we think that is a problem shouldnt we consider the whole of :Category:German people by century, not just this? Rathfelder (talk) 14:39, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

:Comment I think that you may be confusing a state (Germany) with a nationality (German). This is a state nomination. Laurel Lodged (talk) 15:09, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

• Support per nom. The Holy Roman Empire is usually dated from 962 (before, it was called East Francia), but that is not a problem for the two articles in this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:28, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
• REname but to :Category:10th-century archbishops in Holy Roman Empire. It is unnecessary to state they were Catholic, because there was no other denomination there at the time. I would not oppose "East Francia", which is the same place, but we would not a break between that and HRE, because they were the same polity though with the ruler now as emperor. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:13, 10 April 2022 (UTC)

:* That is a good point, "Roman Catholic" is redundant indeed. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:43, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
