:The result of the discussion was: rename to :Category:Spanish-language manuscripts. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 10:03, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
:* Propose renaming :Category:Spanish manuscripts to :Category:Spanish-language manuscripts
:Nominator's rationale: WP:CATSPECIFIC. I cleaned it up because it was a random mix of manuscripts written in (proto-)Spanish (Castilian), written in Latin but by a 'Spanish' person, or written in Latin but discovered in Spain (WP:OCLOCATION) or preserved in Spain (by collection). Refining it to a language-based category makes most sense. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 22:32, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
- Rename, less ambiguous. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:26, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
- :The issue with this proposal (as with the other manuscript category renaming proposals) is that the category does not refer to language nor to discovery. It refers to origin, that is, this is a category for manuscripts produced in Spain—which is how manuscript scholars (such as myself) tend to approach the subject. Language categorization does not make sense in this context. If you recategorize by language you’ll end up with a massive, and unhelpful, ‘Latin language manuscripts’ category. SJLahey (talk) 12:26, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
- :* We have :Category:Latin manuscripts and it seems helpful. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:06, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
- :*:What Marcocapelle said. Of course, it is possible to create subcategories of Latin manuscripts (and there already are). Compare :Category:Latin chronicles about France: the texts are about France, but they are written in Latin. A lot of items which were categorised as 'Spanish manuscripts' were written in Latin, and not about Spain, but about the Bible or patristics, for example, so their connection with 'Spain' (especially before 'Spain' existed in arguably 1479) is questionable.
- :*:I do not think it is clear, at all, from the items in this category tree :Category:Manuscripts by area as a whole that they are meant to group manuscripts {{xt|by area of production}}. As I said about :Category:German manuscripts: {{xt|these manuscripts are written in the German language, not necessarily in Germany, nor about Germany, nor by Germans.}} In many cases we don't even know where it was "originally" written, because the provenance is often unclear. You can say based on internal linguistic arguments in what kind of language milieu the author lived or was influenced by, but that doesn't necessary tell you where the author actually put the pen to paper (or some other writing materials).
- :*:Elsewhere in the category tree, there has been significant mixups between manuscripts by area, language, topic, type, collection as well, so it is not at all clear what "area" even means, and it is explained differently in different parts of the tree. So it makes sense to go for something that is actually WP:DEFINING, like language in this case. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 18:16, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: WP:CATSPECIFIC. They are all written in the French language (except the Cartulary of Mont-Saint-Michel, which is in Latin and would no longer fit the category), but not really about France. Armorial d'Auvergne is a roll of arms, BNF fr. 113–116 is a collection of Arthurian legends, and the last two are songs. See also :Category:French-language chronicles.

:Nominator's rationale: WP:CATSPECIFIC.

- Oppose. 'Ruler' is a better catch-all term for the lords and princes of Monaco, which is why it is [https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=ruler+of+Monaco%2Cmonarch+of+Monaco%2Crulers+of+Monaco%2Cmonarchs+of+Monaco&year_start=1800&year_end=2019&corpus=en-2019&smoothing=3 more widely used]. Srnec (talk) 00:23, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- Weak oppose. More sensible to keep the Princes, Regents, and Lords together in this way. The Lords aren't really monarchs, either, but there's no reason why {{cl|Princes of Monaco}} couldn't be a direct subcat of {{cl|Monarchs in Europe}} (cf {{cl|Princes of Liechtenstein}}). Mind you, I suppose we could always rename to {{cl|Monarcho}} ;) Grutness...wha? 11:10, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

- Oppose. No need to call dukes monarchs. Srnec (talk) 00:33, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
:* In the earliest middle ages the words duke and king were used interchangeably to refer to the heads of Germanic tribes outside of Francia. They were monarchs in any case, as they were independent hereditary rulers. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:44, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
::*No, not every early medieval duke was a monarch. Nothing is gained by calling the Alemannic rulers 'monarchs'. Nothing. It is useless conformity. Srnec (talk) 00:43, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
::*:Meanwhile, 'ruler' still appears to be a vague ambiguous catch-all for whatever anyone wants it to mean. From emperor for life with absolute hereditary power (which can only be challenged by violence) down to local elected mayor for a 1-year fixed term (but removable from office by formal legal procedure if they engage in some sort of mismanagement or misconduct). The list of offices for which I have seen 'ruler' used as a synonym on English Wikipedia still keeps growing. If anyone writes that {{xt|Bar was a ruler of Foo}}, I still have no idea what Bar's position in Fooian society was. Fortunately, we have already cleared up most ambiguities to something more WP:DEFINING. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 19:19, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

::* Oppose per WP:COMMONNAME. Almost nobody calls a city or town a "populated place" in general conversation; it's "city" or "town". If you must rename it, have it be "By Municipality"-it's certainly more commonly used than "populated place." Tom Danson (talk) 21:06, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
::*:Tom, "Municipality" has a different definition in every state. "Populated place" is defined by USGS and is used in WP to define all cities, towns, villages, etc. –Aidan721 (talk) 00:10, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

- Support all Given the precedent, these can probably be speedily renamed.--User:Namiba 13:19, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support all there are numerous types of populated places in the USA and this name covers that better without naming which type, the definition if which is not important for the category.Djflem (talk)
- Comment I thought the splitter was meant to be at the end, which most of these adhere to? Crowsus (talk) 09:03, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support all but agree with {{Pong|Crowsus}} that the splitter should be at the end. So rename :Category:Sportspeople by populated place in the United States to :Category:Sportspeople in the United States by populated place. Laurel Lodged (talk) 15:17, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
- :We have :Category:People by populated place in the United States. The tree is much deeper. Moving the splitter would be incorrect. –Aidan721 (talk) 15:06, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
