:The result of the discussion was: rename/merge/delete as nominated. Follow-up nominations are, of course, welcome. CC LaundryPizza03 in case they want to nominate :Category:Premature events. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 04:29, 5 April 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:Causes of events to :Category:Causes

:* Propose renaming :Category:Consequences of events to :Category:Consequences

:* Propose manually merging :Category:Future events to :Category:Future (it seems we do not put content directly in the tree of :Category:Future if it is already in a month, year or decade category in the future)

:* Propose deleting :Category:Events by chronology

:Nominator's rationale: rename/merge/delete and manually move :Category:Premature events under :Category:Chronology . This is follow-up from this earlier discussion which is still open. "Events" is used here in a vague meaning of anything that happened, while imho we should use the events tree only for organized events such as cultural events and sports events.

• Comment - I dunno. I think "causes" could get confused with Social cause, or other things listed at Cause (disambiguation). That said, Cause redirects to Causality, so perhaps that's a possible solution? Also, looking at :Category:Future, I think that should probably be a reverse merge and prune. It seems to be a vague catch-all of WP:ASSOCIATEDWITH. - jc37 02:09, 16 March 2025 (UTC)
• Merge :Category:Future events as a duplicate category and delete :Category:Events by chronology. No opinion of the other two, but I'd suggest deleting :Category:Premature events as a collection of unrelated topics; most existing contents are on medical conditions and should be moved to suitable categories such as :Category:Pediatrics. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 02:15, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
• Merge :Category:Future events and delete :Category:Events by chronology. Support for renaming as well. Open to disambiguators suggested if deemed necessary. –Aidan721 (talk) 04:13, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

• Propose renaming Benjamin Haydon to :Benjamin Robert Haydon

:Nominator's rationale: The English painter Benjamin Robert Haydon is universally known by this longer form of his name, like a simple quest in the Google will show it. It appears like that in the Encyclopaedia Britannica, the Tate galleries, Royal Academy of Arts, National Portrait Gallery of London websites, among many others, for example: [https://www.britannica.com/biography/Benjamin-Robert-Haydon], [https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/benjamin-robert-haydon-243], [https://www.royalacademy.org.uk/art-artists/name/benjamin-robert-haydon], [https://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/person/mp02100/benjamin-robert-haydon]. The category related to his paintings is also called :Category:Paintings by Benjamin Robert Haydon. So, I think the entry, currently named Benjamin Haydon, should be moved to the universally known form, that also appears in the other Wikipedias.Mistico Dois (talk) 16:48, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

• Procedural oppose, first the article should be renamed, then the category. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:57, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
• Comment Sorry if I don't think I explained myself better. I want the article to be renamed to Benjamin Robert Haydon, to be in agreement with the category, which is already called Category:Paintings by Benjamin Robert Haydon.Mistico Dois (talk) 16:48, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: Align with the parent category tree :Category:People by nationality as well as other subcategories in :Category:People by nationality and location. There are already some categories of this form in the tree so renaming creates consistency in that tree (e.g. :Category:Canadian people by province or territory, :Category:American people by state or territory, :Category:Luxembourgian people by district). –Aidan721 (talk) 15:05, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

::This got renamed but it's not an improvement. For example. If someone was a prominent person in the upstart of a colony. They may have helped to be the founding business class, nobility class, or have peerage in that colony as a major well 'moneied'/land holder or influenced the development of the place. But that doesn't make them of that nationality now. I.e. Queen Elizabeth II's cousins (Hon Gerald Lascelles, Earl of Harewood.) owned the Belle Estate/Belle Plantation in Barbados. They mainly controlled it from afar and they are NOT Barbadians however some persons from there may carry that so called "Royal Line's" DNA as a result even. But Hon Gerald Lascelles, Earl of Harewood. is not a Barbadian. CaribDigita (talk) 15:44, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

::* Gerald David Lascelles is not in the Barbados category, and should not be, so this example is irrelevant. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:17, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

::*:I am explaining what the original category was. It has since been renamed.

::*:It was : Category:(nation) colonial people.

::*:Then transformed into Category:Colony of (nation) people.

::*:Then renamed into "Category:(nation) people"

::*:At this stage the category is redundant. So up-merge it. CaribDigita (talk) 21:04, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
