April 23

Category:Organizations by event

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: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:47, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete but move subCategory:Organizations by war directly under Category:Organizations. Events in a vague concept and consequently the three subcategories have little in common. Besides calling wars and covid19 "events" is questionable since most of them took years and that is hardly a single event. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:53, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Holocaust-denying films

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: dual merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:47, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Only two entries. Most antisemitic films deny the holocaust, and antisemitism is generally more defining - of the two in this category, Europa is solely about denying the holocaust, but the other is more generally antisemitic. Also merge to Holocaust denial (we could probably make a general holocaust-denying works category or something). PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:45, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Fascist newspapers and magazines

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: split as suggested by Marcocapelle, and create Category:Fascist publications. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:45, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The publications category tree is for "newspapers and magazines" (e.g. serialized publications). The and is clunky and excludes things that go in every other tree like this. PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:40, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Works by Ottoman people

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: split as nominated. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:44, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is an unnecessary layer over category:Ottoman art. I added a subcat for a writer; after removing the art subcat, this should be renamed "by writer" and populated accordingly, corresponding to Category:Writers from the Ottoman Empire. Reparent within Category:Ottoman literature. – Fayenatic London 19:59, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Slavic legendary creatures. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:40, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: There is no such categorization in reliable sources. None of the articles states that it belongs to this category. --Altenmann >talk 09:29, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge, isolated and mostly single-article categories, this is not helpful for navigation. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:10, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:VLS-equipped attack submarines

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: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:40, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is an overly granular, non-defining classification. The presence of vertical launch system tubes on an attack submarine is not defined as a distinct thing by any reliable source. (Note that the category creator seems to be attempting to WP:POVPUSH that this is a notable thing (it's not) having had an article on this concept snow-deleted at AfD.)

The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:38, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: There are less than 10 articles that use {{NYC LPC row}} and could possibly populate this category (at most times, including now, it's zero.) I have adjusted that template to instead add articles to Category:New York City articles missing geocoordinate data. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 01:16, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yellowstone task force articles needing attention

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: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:38, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Empty maintenance categories from a task force with <50 articles. These maintenance categories are unlikely to be needed - there's unlikely to be any significant number of additional articles needing coordinates, infoboxes, or other attention. See Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2025 April 8#Washington Metro articles needing attention for a recent discussion of similar categories.
