:* Propose renaming :Category:Wu (region) to :Category:Jiangnan

:Nominator's rationale: There is no such thing a “Wu region”, not in the Chinese language, nor in the Chinese cultural conception of regions. What this article and category is referring to is probably the Jiangnan region of eastern China. SigillumVert (talk) 23:48, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

Merge, Wu (region) redirects to Jiangnan. Maybe keep a category redirect too. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:57, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: The defining part of the internationality of its sibling, :Category:International sports competitions by country, that there is one host country for the event is not met in this group of categories. They also attract competitions that not match the definition of the parent, to be "for competitions between national teams or representatives, not competitions simply involving individuals from different countries."

:It would need some manual overlook as not all :Category:International sports competitions in Belgrade fits in :Category:International sports competitions hosted by Serbia et cetera. Kaffet i halsen (talk) 17:04, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

Keep necessary diffusion.--User:Namiba 18:52, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
:Necessary in what way? If diffusing, diffusion by sport seems more appropriate to me than whether they are "international" or not. Kaffet i halsen (talk) 13:10, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
Keep No logic to these mergers. International competitions hosted by a city and local level competitions are completely different levels of competition. The first will be very notable, while the second may be only of local interest. User:Djln19 Djln19 (talk) 20:18, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
:I don't necessarily disagree with your vote but your rationale is flawed. We don't categorize topics by level of notability. Domestic or local competitions can have far greater coverage than international coverage. –Aidan721 (talk) 17:49, 7 March 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:People from Fort Liberty, North Carolina to :Category:People from Fort Bragg, North Carolina

:Nominator's rationale: Per WP:COMMONNAME, and because the vast majority of these entries are incorrect. First, the relevant facts: The overwhelmingly common historical name for the location is Fort Bragg, as it currently is named and was known for 101 years, from 1922 to 2023. For a brief period from 2023-2025, it was controversially renamed to Fort Liberty by the Biden Administration. Last week, on 14 February 2025, it was formally renamed back to Fort Bragg (though technically, referring to a different namesake). So the current category is pointing to neither the common name nor the official name, but an significantly lesser-used, no-longer-accurate alternative name that was only applicable for less than 5% of the installation's history. Notably, this also means that the vast majority of these entries are not actually "People from Fort Liberty, North Carolina" -- unless they're two years old (spoiler: they're not), they were "People from Fort Bragg, North Carolina" at the relevant time in every case that I spotchecked. I previously had moved the category as this was not expected to be a controversial move; and was partway through manually moving the entries to verify there were no legitimate entrants from someone "from" Fort Liberty during the relevant two year period; however this was reverted by {{ping|Timrollpickering}} before I completed it, and thus here we are. ⇒SWATJester ^{Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat!} 09:30, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:1392 establishments in Korea to :Category:14th-century establishments in Korea and :Category:1392 establishments in Asia

:Nominator's rationale: Category with just two articles in it, for a country which does not otherwise have any categories at the year level prior to 1855. This itself was not previously deleted per Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2017 October 26#Years and decades in Korea up to 1800 as it didn't exist at that time (it's a new creation within the past two days) -- but the use of the preformatted {{tl|EstcatCountry}} autogenerated a redlinked {{cl|1390s establishments in Korea}} parent that did get deleted in that discussion, and thus cannot legitimately be recreated.
Technically this is also an anachronism, as the country was not called "Korea" yet in 1392, but that's also applicable to the target -- but that would have to be handled with a separate renaming discussion, since the same problem also applies to several other sibling categories. But at the very least, it doesn't aid navigation at all to have a year-specific category here for just two things, if the same country's century-level category isn't nearly large enough to diffuse by individual year in the first place. Bearcat (talk) 16:32, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

::@Aidan721

::See Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2025 February 28#Category:Former commanderies of China in Korea.

::To my understanding, "Korea" is being used as the name for the region/culture and not the name of a country; this goes for basically all the Korea-related categories I think. Think of things like {{cl|1st century in Korea}}; there were numerous independent states and statelets in Korea at the time, with very liquid and porous borders, yet we use the single term "Korea" as a region that encompasses them. seefooddiet (talk) 20:05, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

::Also, the reason I made a category for specifically 1392 is because that's the year that Joseon was founded, and we know for sure that numerous important things in Korea were founded during that year. I just only added two because it's only been a day that the category's been up; I was planning on adding more later. If you'd like, I can add more things to the category. But I'll hold back for now; if there are other reasons that this category shouldn't exist maybe it's not worth keeping. seefooddiet (talk) 20:09, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: There are currently 964 categories under :Category:Summer Olympics competitors by sport and year. The first level of this category contains 49 sub categories, all of which follow the naming scheme of "Olympic (adjective for player) by year". Every single sub category of these 49 sub categories, of which there are 915, follows the naming scheme of "(Adjust for player) at the (year) Summer Olympics", though the sailors category specifically has 177 sub categories that split it up by event but still follow this naming scheme (such as Sailors at the 1964 Summer Olympics – Flying Dutchman).

:There are currently 293 categories under :Category:Winter Olympics competitors by sport and year. The first level of this category contains 17 sub categories, all of which follow the naming scheme of "Olympic (what you call a person who participates in the sport) by year". Every single sub category of these 49 sub categories, of which there are 276, follows the naming scheme of "(what you call a person who participates in the sport) at the (year) Winter Olympics".

:@Aidan721: There's a lot of categories I think we could reformat and I wanted to avoid going too big on a nomination right away.

From my perspective, based on the hundreds of subcats, there's a mismatch in the naming scheme that needs to be addressed, one way or another.

:Nominator's rationale: rename such that it is also understandable to Christian and other readers what the category is about (WP:NPOV). Note that the far amount of the content of the category is about the content of the Book of Genesis, not about Jewish liturgy. Please keep a redirect though. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:31, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

KEEP because these categories are about the way the Weekly Torah portion is called in Judaism, the way they are understood from within the framework in Judaism, and not in Christianity or by any other religion. It in fact helps other religions understand Judaism and its Torah. Christianity, nor any other religion, does not have a "weekly" Torah portion. Thus, this category, like it says at the top of the categories page's, the main article/s for this/these categories is Bereshit (parashah), Noach, Lech-Lecha etc, etc. In addition this category's name has withstood the test of time since 2014, so not sure why now all of a sudden there is this urge to water down and make meaningless these very accurate Weekly Torah portions' names? What next, to change the reality of Judaism's Weekly Torah portions so that Christians and Muslims can "understand" them by making them generic? No one is suggesting that Christian and Islamic divisions of their scriptures be renamed so that Jews and members of other religions can relate to them, so why pick on Judaism's way of categorization? The nominator is requested to drop this nomination that seemingly is being done out of a lack of knowledge as to how the Torah is named and sub-divided by Judaism for thousands of years. IZAK (talk) 00:59, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

:* The content of the article Bereshit (parashah) is about liturgy in Judaism, but the content of the category is subject of biblical scholarship regardless of anyone's particular religious background. There are also atheist biblical scholars for that matter. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:13, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

::*So what? Your nomination will change information about important facts about Judaism and will deprive readers and users of understanding how Judaism names and clasifies the Weekly Torah portions. You make no sense. It is like suggesting that "flat Earth" theories determine the way that astronomy views the solar system. This is also not about "liturgy" which is about prayers, rather the Weekly Torah portions are about the naming system that is assigned to the organized weekly Torah (Bible) readings that is practiced by Jews according to Judaism and not according to atheism or Christianity or any other belief system. Your suggestion in effect destroys something about Judaism. IZAK (talk) 12:12, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

:::* No, it would only destroy something if I would propose to delete the article, which obviously I am not going to do. Bible content is not unique to Judaism, it is available to all mankind. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:27, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

::::*So then would you rename every single Biblical article based on Judaism on Wikipedia in :Category:Torah into a Christian-or Atheist friendly mode? You simply need to do a Google search to see that this is the universal conventional way that this kind of Biblical content is named within Judaism and is universally recognized by everyone, feel free to create your own Atheist or Christian-friendly content but a quick search on the Internet will show that I am right, here are just a few examples that anyone can easily find with thousands more like them: [https://www.chabad.org/parshah/default_cdo/aid/7781/jewish/Bereshit.htm Parshat Bereshit] (Chabad.org); [https://www.myjewishlearning.com/torah-portions/parashat-bereshit/ Parashat Bereshit] (MyJewishLearning.com); [https://www.hebcal.com/sedrot/bereshit Parashat Bereshit] (HebCal.com); [https://www.alephbeta.org/weekly-torah-portion/parshat-bereishit Parshat Bereshit] (AlephBeta.org); [https://www.sefaria.org/topics/parashat-bereshit?sort=Relevance&tab=notable-sources Parashat Bereshit] (Sefaria.org); [https://www.hebrew4christians.com/Scripture/Parashah/Summaries/Bereshit/bereshit.html Parashat Bereshit] (Hebrew for Christians.com)!; [https://reformjudaism.org/torah/portion/breishit B'reishit] (ReformJudaism.org); [https://judaism.fandom.com/wiki/Bereshit_(parsha) Bereshit (parsha)] (Fandom.com/wiki); [https://torah.org/parsha/bereishis/ Parshas Bereishis] (Torah.org); [https://ohr.edu/qa/5760/bereishi/bereishi.htm Parshat Bereishit] (Ohr.edu). IZAK (talk) 19:23, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Keep. We use "local" names for various subcats within e.g. :Category:Religious leaders by religion, and as Izak says it is educational for other readers to become acquainted with these words. We harmonised the spellings from "parsha" to match the article "parashah" a few years ago, but that's the only renaming that was appropriate.

:I suggest that the categories might instead usefully be enhanced with information cut down from that at :Category:Bereshit (parashah), including scripture references that may be more familiar to outsiders. Perhaps a category header template might be made, with 5 sub-templates based on Weekly_Torah_portion#Table_of_weekly_readings. – Fayenatic London 17:06, 8 March 2025 (UTC)

The one for companies should be renamed to make this clear (it is a subcategory of :Category:Musical instrument manufacturing companies of the United Kingdom), and miscategorised members should be recategorised. cagliost (talk) 12:03, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: merge, mostly 1- or 2-article categories, this is not helpful for navigation. This is a discussion parallel to Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2025_February_22#Births_by_year_600_BC_-_500, {{ping|Aidan721|Fayenatic london}} pinging contributors to that discussion. If this goes ahead then I will also nominate the 6th-century BC year categories, so that we will have a consistent beginning at 500 BC of years and deaths and, dependent on the outcome of the other discussion, of births.

:Nominator's rationale: Newly created category without a clear and/or useful purpose. Ed ^{[talk] [OMT]} 06:07, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

::*:As the creator, keep. I myself have seen the use of body armour in mass shootings being viewed as an increasingly worrying issue by the public and media, since with the usage of these protection, murderers become more difficult to stop. This has been a subject of discussion in crime and punishment more prominently since 2022. I feel as though this is a distinctive characteristic and the category is useful.

Delete per nom, additionally "involving" body armor could be broadly interpreted - Police responding who were wearing body armor could arguably make a mass shooting included even if the assailant wasn't wearing any. VegaDark (talk) 02:33, 3 March 2025 (UTC)
