• Question, by what criteria are these articles classified as stubs? For example Ishmael Philemon Ackon does not look like a stub. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:50, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:Sport in Scandinavia to :Category:Sport in the Nordic countries

:* Propose deleting :Category:Ice hockey in Scandinavia

:* Propose deleting :Category:Ice hockey teams in Scandinavia

:Nominator's rationale: Most international/inter-national competitions, championships and cooperation are on Nordic level, as seen in the first mentioned category, as well as in :Category:Inter-Nordic sports competitions (a potential category child). :Category:Ice hockey in Scandinavia and child only group the three country categories.

:Nominator's rationale: Inconsistent naming of the subcategories in :Category:Consuls, which this nomination seeks to adress. Some aspects:

:# of/for–to/in:

:#* [https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=Consul+for+Italy+in%2CConsul+of+Italy+in%2CConsul+for+France+in%2CConsul+of+France+in%2CConsul+for+Norway+in%2CConsul+of+Norway+in&year_start=1922&year_end=2022&corpus=en&smoothing=3 nGram] searches prefer "of"

:#* :Category:Consuls by country of origin favours "for"

:#* Article Consul (representative) is mixed (all three uses in the same paragraph): {{tq|the position of a consul for a particular country}}; {{tq|mentioned as consuls for Denmark, the Netherlands and Portugal}}; {{tq|consul of a foreign country}}.

:#* Ambassador categories are of–to: e.g. :Category:Ambassadors of Denmark to Australia

:#* Lists in :Category:Lists of diplomats favours of–in

:#* "of" may be ambiguous. It is possible to interpret :Category:Consuls of Austria as a consul in Vienna or Graz or a consul representing Austria in another county, which is not possible for the for–in couple.

:#* Consul to (city) doesn't sound good?

:# Consuls-general/Consuls general/Consuls-General/Consuls General:

:#* Consul (representative) favours hyphen

:#* MOS:JOBTITLE favours non-capitalisation of general

:#:Category:British consuls-general in Egypt might be seen as a special case as it is in a different time period.

:Kaffet i halsen (talk) 11:37, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

• I have a weak preference for "for" instead of "of" but most importantly the names should be harmonized. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:43, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
• (Nominator) I also have a preference for "for". Kaffet i halsen (talk) 08:29, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: Split * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:29, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting :Category:Consuls by nationality

:* Propose splitting :Category:American consuls to :Category:Consuls in the United States and :Category:Consuls of the United States (and possibly :Category:American diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Australian consuls to :Category:Consuls in Australia and :Category:Consuls of Australia (and possibly :Category:Australian diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:British consuls to :Category:Consuls in the United Kingdom and :Category:Consuls of the United Kingdom (and possibly :Category:British diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Danish consuls to :Category:Consuls in Denmark and :Category:Consuls of Denmark (and possibly :Category:Danish diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Israeli consuls to :Category:Consuls in Israel and :Category:Consuls of Israel (and possibly :Category:Israeli diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Japanese consuls to :Category:Consuls in Japan and :Category:Consuls of Japan (and possibly :Category:Japanese diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Lithuanian consuls to :Category:Consuls in Lithuania and :Category:Consuls of Lithuania (and possibly :Category:Lithuanian diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Russian consuls to :Category:Consuls in Russia and :Category:Consuls of Russia (and possibly :Category:Russian diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Soviet consuls to :Category:Consuls in the Soviet Union and :Category:Consuls of the Soviet Union (and possibly :Category:Soviet diplomats)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Swedish consuls to :Category:Consuls in Sweden and :Category:Consuls of Sweden (and possibly :Category:Swedish diplomats)

:Nominator's rationale: Three types of consuls by countries categories exist: :Category:Consuls by locations of residence, :Category:Consuls by country of origin, and :Category:Consuls by nationality. The question is if nationality is needed; ambassadors are only categorised by mission and representative origin. In one way, consuls are different in that they are not strictly of the nationality they represent, but is it necessary to bring together the Foo citizen representing Bar in Foo and the Foo citizen representing Foo in Bar more than in Category:Foo diplomats which is the parent? Targets are dependent on the discussion above (#Consuls by countries categories). Kaffet i halsen (talk) 11:37, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: Not sure if such a category needs to exist but it should at least be consistent. Mellk (talk) 05:18, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

• Rename per nom. -- Just N. (talk) 22:36, 27 May 2025 (UTC)
• Split to :Category:Military personnel of the Tsardom of Russia and :Category:Generals of the Tsardom of Russia. "Military leaders" is a confusing term, I would expect them to be the single highest ranked officer of a country at a time.

:Nominator's rationale: Redundant category, since there's already :Category:Jewish military personnel. I don't think there's any other categories of veterans by ethnicity or religion.
