November 23[edit]

Category:Wikipedians in Montréal[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: Rename. --MZMcBride (talk) 22:51, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming Category:Wikipedians in Montréal to Category:Wikipedians in Montreal
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Category needs to be renamed to match the common English spelling of main article Montreal, and for that matter, master category Category:Wikipedians in Quebec, neither of which use the accented "é" in the English Wikipedia, per Wikipedia:CANSTYLE#French_names . Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:45, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename. Consistent with the well-established consensus on the English Wikipedia. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 21:03, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy close and relist at WP:UCFD. Otto4711 (talk) 21:06, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • I tried to use the cfr-user template, but I can't figure out how to fill it in so it doesn't say CATEGORY UNKNOWN... Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:50, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy rename per nom. Icewedge (talk) 23:55, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Wikipedians by food" category, additionally this uses "who love", all previous of which have been deleted. VegaDark (talk) 00:14, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as nom. VegaDark (talk) 00:14, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Wikipedians who use Eudora (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Despite being in the "Wikipedians by web browser" category, Eudora is in fact simply an e-mail client, not a browser. Such categories have been deleted before as not being useful for the encyclopedia to categorize. VegaDark (talk) 00:14, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Wikipedians who use WordPress (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

According to our article, "WordPress is an open source blog publishing application." Not helpful for Wikipedia to categorize users by blog publishing application preference. VegaDark (talk) 00:14, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as nom. VegaDark (talk) 00:14, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Suggestion. Just a thought, but if these are deleted, what do people think about a friendly note to members of categories like this that they may like to watchlist the relevant page, for example our article on Wordpress? The only utility I can think of in having a category is to find someone if there is an issue with the article. Would such a note go some way to covering that base? Hiding T 12:51, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Perhaps, but having to send out a bunch of talk page notifications would be a huge dissuader for nominating categories in the first place. VegaDark (talk) 19:38, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Recycling in the usa today\ (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This could possibly be speedy deleted as nonsense, looks to be some story by a single-purpose account. Only page in it is a user page, so I guess this is supposed to be a user category. VegaDark (talk) 21:42, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Testcat (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

We already have Category:X1 for testing purposes. Would probably qualify as a G2 deletion, but I see this has already been deleted as G2 previously, so perhaps users thinking about recreating this would be better off being linked to a UCFD (this) that will point them to Category:X1. VegaDark (talk) 21:42, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as nom. VegaDark (talk) 21:42, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete entirely redundant to Category:X1. Icewedge (talk) 02:51, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep: well I don't really care much one way or the other, but this seems a far more intuitive name for a test category than "X1" (who ever's going to think of that?)--Kotniski (talk) 08:58, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what this is, but at minimum it is improperly named with "User" at the beginning. VegaDark (talk) 03:45, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as nom. VegaDark (talk) 03:45, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: the category is generated by {{User Tetsudō Fan}}. So apparently from looking at the template this category is supposed to be for fans of the Japanese railroad system? Icewedge (talk) 06:29, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • That also has some sort of box pertaining to an individual user (the creator), so this may be some sort of individual user category, a further reason to delete (plus, being a "fan" of Japanese railroad is not something we need to categorize). VegaDark (talk) 21:42, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I fail to see how this category can be used for collaboration. "This category is for Wikipedians who are currently studying for the Irish Leaving Certificate" Too narrow for collaboration, and even if it wasn't too narrow it makes no sense to only categorize students familiar with this.

  • Delete as nom. VegaDark (talk) 03:45, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per precedent. Very little benefit for collaboration, also there is really only one mainspace article to which this category applies and usercats that refer to only one mainspace article are not particularly useful. Icewedge (talk) 06:39, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

0-level category and a joke category. All 0-level categories have been deleted. 6-level text is "This user is Jimi Hendrix". No other category has a 6-th level. Both are currently empty, but it hasn't been 4 days so C1 doesn't apply, and I'd also much rather prefer a deletion here to bar recreation. VegaDark (talk) 23:20, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as nom. VegaDark (talk) 23:20, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete it seems like this category is an attempt to create a POV pushing Wikiproject of sorts. What it looks like is that Arikasikis (talk · contribs) is trying to marshal editors against "Tagalog Imperialism". Icewedge (talk) 05:32, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Ek$i Sözlük Contributors (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

No indication this is a user category, so needs a rename at minimum. Would also support deletion as I don't believe categories by contributon to other websites are useful for Wikipedia. VegaDark (talk) 00:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Rename to Category:Wikipedians who contribute to Ek$i Sözlük or delete as nom. VegaDark (talk) 00:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I don't really know how it works here, so even as the creator of the category I can not really say that I'm strongly against a delete or a rename, but it is not a user-only category. ie Okan Bayülgen and Murat Arslan are also some of the exposed contributors of the website, and actually I'm pretty sure that there are more of these non-wikipedian-contributors within wikipedia. So I think the question is, whether this is a noteworthy information or not. I would say that it is from a turkish point of view. It's really hard to explain this to a non-turkish-speaking-person, but to give a couple of examples, it's a website where celebrities care a lot about, it's cited quite a lot on the newspaper articles and TV shows, when somebody is starting a research it's one of the first places they look at etc. So it's basically like an undergound wikipedia written in colloquial language, and a large part of contributors see it almost like a secret organization like, say, freemasons :). See it for yourself; go to http://www.websitevaluecalculator.com/ and try both wikipedia.org and sozluk.sourtimes.org, you'll be surprised :) But again, I'm not strongly opposing a rename or a delete, you probably know better how it works here.

    • We should not be mixing mainspace articles and Wikipedian user pages in the same category. If both categorizations are considered appropriate, the category should be split. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 09:37, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - perhaps the best course of action is to depopulate this category of user pages, and then let CFD take care of this past that if they don't think this is appropriate for mainspace pages. VegaDark (talk) 21:42, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This would make more sense with a rename at minimum, or a delete as too broad. VegaDark (talk) 00:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Rename is fine. There is no reason to delete. The subject of design in general is as interesting as any one discipline of design, especially to those with multidisciplinary interests. Oicumayberight (talk) 23:30, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No article on Cafe Mobil, so can't possibly support collaboration. Additionally, no indication it is a user category. VegaDark (talk) 00:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Either needs a rename to Category:Wikipedians who use Game Maker or Category:User GameMaker (or something similar) depending on if we want to treat this as a software program or a programming language, per accepted naming conventions. I'd prefer the first option. VegaDark (talk) 00:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Needs a rename to reflect this is a user category, and for proper capitalization. VegaDark (talk) 00:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
