I'm not sure he'd be counted as a revolutionary, but even if he was, he and his associates were not Israelis when they were fighting, because it didnt exist then.

*'''Delete''' in the US case which I understand, the problem is that before the US Civil War (1861-1865) South Carolina never had a popular vote, its electors were chosen by the state legislature. 1876 has the issue of major fraud and voter intimadation by the KKK which makes it next to impossible to say that anyone was a legitimate winner. In 1824 South Carolina was not the only state that lacked a popular vote, so talking about who won that popular vote really does not make sense. The nominations processes it makes even less sense.[[User:Johnpacklambert|John Pack Lambert]] ([[User talk:Johnpacklambert|talk]]) 20:10, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

:::::@[[User:Marcocapelle|Marcocapelle]]: For me, the difference is that in these cases we have the data to see that expansion is readily possible. That's a big difference from the flurry of [[:Category:People from some tiny and declining town in Wyoming]] which William is so good at tackling.
:::::And I agree with {{yo|Dexdor|p=}} that it wasn't a good idea to create these categories just yet. But now that they are here, and since a degree of easy expansion is evidently posisble, why delete? Better to be eventualist about it. --[[User:BrownHairedGirl|<span style="color:#663200;">Brown</span>HairedGirl]] <small>[[User talk:BrownHairedGirl|(talk)]] • ([[Special:Contributions/BrownHairedGirl|contribs]])</small> 08:40, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

*'''Comment:''' I previously mentioned at the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Architecture#Architecture by country categories|Architecture WikiProject talk page]] that the specific example that prompted my concern was how to categorise [[:Category:Chinese architecture in Thailand]]. Having [[:Category:Chinese architecture]] and [[:Category:Architecture of Thailand]] would solve the problem. I'm reconsidering, though, whether the distinction is necessary. Perhaps we could treat [[:Category:Architecture of China]] as covering both architecture geographically located in China and of a style originating in China. (The distinction would be needed if the proposal was to split between Chinese architecture and Architecture ''in'' China, but the proposal here uses the preposition ''of'', which could mean both.) This would best reflect how the categories are currently used, and help avoid the need to manually clean-up the whole tree. It's not "clean" in terms of categorisation, though, and doesn't address the opposition from the previous discussion. --[[User:Paul 012|Paul_012]] ([[User talk:Paul 012|talk]]) 19:16, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
*'''Support''' moving ''Fooian Architecture'' to ''Architecture of Foo.'' {{re|Paul 012}} Yes, I agree completely with the hybrid meaning of "of" in "Architecture '''of''' Foo", which is what you've proposed all along, and also what was proposed in 2010. And, indeed, these very points we're discussing were discussed then as well. Re-reading that thread just now, I really don't see any serious opposition to what you are proposing. The oppose !votes in the 2010 thread seem to oppose "Architecture '''in''' Foo" (they use the word "in" in their oppose !vote comments), not Architecture '''of''' Foo. Because "of" can mean "in" or "from", it's the right choice of word. And, it follows the formats of the article titles. Frankly I disagree with that 2010 close as being no consensus. Is it too late to delrev? :-D On the basis of this, I support the proposal. [[User:Levivich|Levivich]] ([[User talk:Levivich|talk]]) 00:33, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
*'''Support''' moving as proposed by original poster. '''''Comment:''''' Architecture belongs to a '''"style", "period" or "movement"''' not nations and states, not even to any of the ethno-religious groups. Therefor, I don't exactly understand why is this even a problem, as academia recognized this kind of differentiation since time immemorial ? However, one should be careful in moving every and all of the categories for two reasons: first, because sometimes styles are grouped and than named upon some social and/or political entity, not just movement, etc - "Ottoman", "Moorish", "Austria-Hungarian", "Persian", "Mughal", etc.; and second, although it is a true that, for example, "Bosnia and Herzegovina architecture" actually doesn't exists as a distinct style, we can still say that "Architecture of Bosnia and Herzegovina" include "Ottoman", "Austria-Hungarian", "Modern" and "Brutalist-Socialist", etc., and than be careful to understand that it also include "Bosnian traditional architecture", "Herzegovinian traditional architecture", "Dalmatian traditional architecture" and even "Illyrian traditional architecture", all of which don't belong to any artistic school or movement but are very distinct "vernacular architecture" still in use today, and more importantly for this issue, still nameed upon ethno-religious and/or geographical label. The "top" category should be "Architecture of ...nation/state..." and not "...nation/state... architecture". --[[User:Santasa99|<span style="color:maroon; text-shadow:#666362 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em;">'''౪ Santa ౪'''</span>]][[User talk:Santasa99|<span style="color:navy; text-shadow:#666362 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em;"><sup>'''''99°'''''</sup></span>]] 13:30, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
