:The result of the discussion was: alt rename / keep. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 09:50, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
:* Propose renaming :Category:Bosnian queens to :Category:Consorts of Bosnia
:* Propose merging :Category:Bosnian duchesses into :Category:Consorts of Bosnia
:** Alt (Marcocapelle): Rename :Category:Bosnian queens to :Category:Queens consort of Bosnia; Keep for now :Category:Bosnian duchesses
:Nominator's rationale: More WP:CATSPECIFIC. All of these women were queens consort, with Helen of Bosnia also being a queen consort before becoming the apparent only queen regnant in Bosnian history. :Category:Bosnian duchesses is a WP:SMALLCAT (2 P) containing only duchesses/banesses consort. I've already WP:BOLDly renamed main article List of Bosnian royal consorts to List of consorts of Bosnia, because it includes banesses and duchesses consort, to whom "royal" does not apply (compare List of Milanese consorts), and because per "Suggestion B", we should name this to "consorts of Foo". See also my new merger proposal at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Bosnia and Herzegovina#Merger proposal lists of dukes of Bosnia. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 13:20, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- I am not at all sure about this. The word consort [https://www.thefreedictionary.com/consort means] "a husband or wife, especially of a monarch", "a companion or partner". "Consorts of Bosnia" therefore seems a bit silly, as one cannot be married to a country. Following up on that, everyone knows what to expect to find in :Category:Queens of Bosnia, while :Category:Consorts of Bosnia would leave many scratching their heads due to either not knowing what consorts means or, indeed, due to knowing what it means. The latter could reasonably include all married people from Bosnia. Surtsicna (talk) 15:46, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :@Surtsicna You raise valid points, but I think I can answer them all. I've posed a question at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Royalty and Nobility/Archive 10#"royal" consorts which addresses all of this, and I would like to invite you to participate. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 16:46, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Maybe we should take one step at a time, e.g. by renaming :Category:Bosnian queens to :Category:Queens consort of Bosnia or :Category:Bosnian queens consort. "Queens" is ambiguous and this category should be parented to :Category:Queens consort. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:30, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :@Marcocapelle Perhaps, but that leaves the duchesses consort and banesses consort questions unanswered. I've posed a question at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Royalty and Nobility/Archive 10#"royal" consorts which addresses all of this, and I would like to invite you to participate. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 16:47, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- ::By the way, when we were faced with the same question for List of Milanese consorts, you and I concluded it would not be necessary to rename :Category:Duchesses of Milan to :Category:Duchesses consort of Milan, because they were all consorts, and it would make more sense to create a new separate category for :Category:Ladies of Milan, which we did. The two situations are very similar, except that Helen of Bosnia was also briefly a queen regnant after having been a queen consort (and creating :Category:Queens regnant of Bosnia just for Helen would be a WP:SMALLCAT, so that won't help), and we probably don't have enough duchesses consort and banesses consort of Bosnia to prevent SMALLCAT. So, I concluded renaming to :Category:Consorts of Bosnia, and including the duchesses consort and banesses consort, is the best solution in this case. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 17:59, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- ::* It would suffice to have Helen in :Category:Queens consort of Bosnia as well as in :Category:Queens regnant in Europe. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:35, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- ::*:@Surtsicna Why [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_banesses_and_queens_of_Bosnia&diff=next&oldid=1161074342 have you removed] Maria of Bosnia from the list? Her own bio says {{tq|Maria too was aware of her higher status and, in addition to the title Countess of Helfenstein, often referred to herself as Duchess of Bosnia. From 1365 until 1399, she signed her donations as "Maria Herzogin von Bosnien".}} It is supported by multiple reliable sources.
- ::*:Moreover, you have boldly renamed the list to List of banesses and queens of Bosnia. I don't think that's a good idea when we are in the middle of a discussion about its title and scope. Admittedly, I boldly renamed the main article just before I CfR'd and CfM'd the categories, but that was because I did not expect it to be controversial. I'm quite open to changing the title to something else, but not in the middle of a discussion, especially when no proposal for this new title was made, let alone accepted, by anyone in the discussion. I hope we can reach agreements first before changing things under discussion. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 21:07, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :::::The article is a list of the consorts of the rulers of Bosnia. Maria was not a consort of a ruler of Bosnia. I too am very open for discussion, but I do not think it is a good idea to keep the article in the meantime at a blatantly nonsensical title for which no consensus was sought. Surtsicna (talk) 21:15, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- ::::::Fair enough then. Let's keep this title for now. Your and other people's comments have given me some pause that I might be wrong, even though that would mean the vast majority of titles of :Category:Lists of duchesses must then also be wrong. Perhaps they are. We'll see. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 21:40, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :::::::I've been thinking, and Marco's alt rename of :Category:Bosnian queens to :Category:Queens consort of Bosnia does seem like a good first step. I don't know what to do with the duchesses and banesses yet. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 21:30, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- Alt per Marco. For the sake of 1 person, I agree that it would suffice to have Helen in :Category:Queens consort of Bosnia as well as in :Category:Queens regnant in Europe. Laurel Lodged (talk) 08:52, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: WP:NARROWCAT/WP:OVERLAPCAT, almost exact duplicates. Since we're talking about people, the "Avar Khans" is the obvious target. We might change "Khans" to lowercase "khans" while we're at it. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 12:25, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: upmerge / reparent (alt nom). (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 11:30, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
:* Propose upmerging :Category:7th-century rulers in Europe to :Category:7th-century European people
:* Propose merging :Category:7th-century Doges of Venice into sibling :Category:7th-century monarchs in Europe
:** Alt proposal: removing all :Category:Doges of Venice from the :Category:Rulers in Europe tree
:** Alt (Marcocapelle): re-parenting :Category:7th-century Doges of Venice to :Category:7th-century monarchs in Europe
:Nominator's rationale (rulers in Europe): Redundant layer. Follow-up to Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2023 June 5#Category:4th-century rulers in Europe.
:Nominator's rationale (Doges of Venice): :Category:7th-century Doges of Venice is a 1P WP:SMALLCAT that may be merged into sibling :Category:7th-century monarchs in Europe. However, :Category:Doges of Venice are in the :Category:Dukes of Italy and :Category:Italian princes trees, which ultimately do not directly sit in the :Category:Monarchs tree, but are in the :Category:Monarchy and :Category:Nobility trees respectively, and we do kind of consider the Republic of Venice to have been, you know, a republic. So if we do not want the Doges of Venice in the monarchs tree, this is the moment to decide that. Because the same question will need to be answered for the 8th- to 18th-century Doges of Venice.
:Alt proposal rationale (Doges of Venice): Therefore, removing all :Category:Doges of Venice from the :Category:Rulers in Europe tree prevents us from categorising the heads of state of the Republic of Venice as "monarchs". Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 10:02, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support, keeping the doges of Venice in the monarchs tree. In principle, the doges of Venice ruled until death. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:17, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :That's an important fact I hadn't considered. So practically speaking, Venice was an elective monarchy? Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 12:46, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :* Yes, that is how we call this today. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:34, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :*:Makes sense. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 01:21, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
- :*::Then we should re-parent :Category:7th-century Doges of Venice to :Category:7th-century monarchs in Europe instead of merging. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 21:00, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support per {{U|Marcocapelle}}'s definition. The doges were elective reigning dukes, basically elective monarchs. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 07:26, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Nederlandse Leeuw, there seems to be consensus for the alt nom, but I can't quite tell what that means for the categories. E.g. would :Category:7th-century rulers in Europe still be upmerged? — Qwerfjkltalk 09:56, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- :@Qwerfjkl Hey, yes, sorry, I'll clarify it:
- :* Upmerge :Category:7th-century rulers in Europe to :Category:7th-century European people
- :* Re-parent the whole :Category:Doges of Venice tree from the :Category:Rulers in Europe tree to the :Category:Monarchs in Europe tree, including:
- :** Re-parent :Category:7th-century Doges of Venice to :Category:7th-century monarchs in Europe
- :That's what we've essentially agreed above. Does that clear things up? :) Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 10:55, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Albums recorded at Abbey Road Studios}}
:Nominator's rationale: Deleted and recreated without consensus. See Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2020_December_10#Category:Albums_recorded_at_Abbey_Road_Studios. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:58, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Strong keep. There's already a strong precedent for categories like this one. See everything in :Category:Albums recorded in the United States and :Category:Albums recorded in the United Kingdom. As a music recording and production major, I think anyone with experience in sound recording would tell you that the studio an album is recorded at is one of its most defining characteristics. It's a decision made before a single note is recorded and influences every aspect of the record. Furthermore, many of these categories, such as :Category:Albums recorded at Hitsville U.S.A., represent unique moments in music history. This is very clearly the type of information that an encyclopedia exists to keep track of. The Midnite Wolf (talk) 07:17, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :Since people in the last discussion cited WP:NONDEF as reasoning, let's look at the three rules-of-thumb listed:
- :*"a defining characteristic is one that reliable, secondary sources commonly and consistently define, in prose, the subject as having." Pretty much any reliable source on an album's creation will talk about the studio it was recorded at, as this has a large impact on the album's sound.
- :*"if the characteristic would not be appropriate to mention in the lead portion of an article (determined without regard to whether it is mentioned in the lead), it is probably not defining..." The two featured articles I could find in this category, The Dark Side of the Moon and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, mention Abbey Road/EMI studios in their first and second paragraphs respectively.
- :*"if the characteristic falls within any of the forms of overcategorization mentioned on this page, it is probably not defining." So far, no one has suggested another form of overcategorization that this category falls under. The Midnite Wolf (talk) 17:31, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Speedy delete per WP:G4. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 09:51, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Delete, it is not a characteristic that is prominently discussed in the articles. Sometimes it is not mentioned at all. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:30, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :That's because most of the articles are already pretty short. Featured articles, such as Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, discuss the studio prominently. The Midnite Wolf (talk) 16:56, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- :* Even in that article, there is plenty information about how the Beatles recreated the atmosphere, but hardly anything about the studio itself. The claim that the studio has a large impact on the album's sound does not appear in any form. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:44, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete per WP:G4. The claim is made above that "there's already a strong precedent for categories like this one" but that's just another way of saying WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. The actual precedent is right here. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:11, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
- :The only real argument made in the past discussion is WP:NOTDEFINING, which was refuted above. We shouldn’t be beholden to a small discussion three years ago. And see WP:OTHERCATSEXIST for a more nuanced and applicable perspective here. The Midnite Wolf (talk) 00:59, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
