:''The result of the discussion was:'' <!-- Template:Cfd top --> '''speedy delete''' (G7). [[User:MER-C|MER-C]] 10:24, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

:* '''Propose renaming''' [[:Category:Formerly curated portals that are presently automated]] to [[:Category:Portals converted to single pages]]

:'''Nominator's rationale:''' A more honest and shorter name for this useful category. Curated suggests these pages were maintained when many were not maintained at all. Starting with the word Portals like most [[:Category:Portal pages]] helps us find the cat easier [[User:Legacypac|Legacypac]] ([[User talk:Legacypac|talk]]) 21:30, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

*'''Comment''' I support the idea but the proposed new name is misleading too. "Automated" doesn't necessarily mean "single page" - several pages use the new automation based templates but still use subpages (as opposed to navboxes or inline lists of articles) to manage the list of selected articles etc. It's certainly my preferred approach to list selected articles on a subpage rather than on the main portal page as it makes maintenance of the list much easier, so most of the portals I look after are automated but not single-page.

==== Category:2000 Tennis Masters Cup ====

[[File:Symbol move vote.svg|16px|link=|alt=]] '''Relisted''', see [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2019 May 1%23Category:2000 Tennis Masters Cup]]<!-- Template:Cfd relisted -->

:'''OPTION A:'''

:* '''Propose renaming''' [[:Category:2000 Tennis Masters Cup]] to [[:Category:2000 Tennis Masters Cup and ATP Tour World Championships]]

:'''OPTION B:'''

:* '''Propose keeping''' [[:Category:2000 Tennis Masters Cup]]

:* '''Propose merging''' [[:Category:2001 Touchtel ATP World Doubles Challenge Cup‎]] to [[:Category:2001 Tennis Masters Cup‎]]

:'''Nominator's rationale:''' The first part of Option A is a procedural nomination, as [[Special:Contributions/95.134.201.207|95.134.201.207]] tagged the page with this edit summary: "see main article, content is about two similar tournaments, not only one". Indeed, the main article is [[2000 Tennis Masters Cup and ATP Tour World Championships]], those being the names of the Singles and Doubles events. I added 2001 to make a similar long name, as it currently has two categories.

:From 1990 to 1999, the name within [[:Category:ATP Finals]] was (e.g.) {{c|1999 ATP Tour World Championships}}. From 2001 to 2008, there is simply {{c|2002 Tennis Masters Cup}}. Option A would produce one-off double-barrelled names for 2000 and 2001, which would mean that {{tl|Navseasoncats}} or similar templates would not link to either year from the preceding or succeeding years' categories.

:I therefore prefer '''option B''', just using one name to cover both events, on the [[KISS principle]] (even though love means nothing in tennis). – [[User:Fayenatic london|Fayenatic]] [[User talk:Fayenatic london|'''<span style="color: #FF0000;">L</span>'''ondon]] 21:00, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

[[User:Doug Weller|<span style="color:#070">Doug Weller</span>]] [[User talk:Doug Weller|talk]] 09:42, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

* '''Keep''': the [[:Category:Critics of Islam]] is currently too large, overly broad and difficult to navigate otherwise, justifying the existence of sub-categories dealing with critics of Islam from various different perspectives. It doesn't make much sense, for example, to have [[John of Damascus]] (a Christian), [[Richard Dawkins]] (a Secularist) and [[Bal Thackeray]] (a Hindu ultra-nationalist) all lumped together in one category, as they cite completely different reasons for their criticisms. So disambiguation is more useful for the reader and makes sense. [[User:Ishbiliyya|Ishbiliyya]] ([[User talk:Ishbiliyya|talk]]) 13:39, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

* '''Delete all'''. This division does not make particular sense to me. The overlaps between these groups in this matter far exceed their differences, and the categories themselves will inevitably attract [[WP:BLP]] violations: witness this sample of erroneous additions by the category creator: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nick_Cohen&type=revision&diff=891452943&oldid=891227431][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jack_Buckby&action=history][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Michael_Coren&type=revision&diff=891453077&oldid=862550686][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mark_Steyn&type=revision&diff=891461532&oldid=884875650] [[:Category:Critics of Christianity]], [[:Category:Critics of Judaism]] etc. aren't divided this way. In fact, like Doug Weller, I can't find any other categories like these. [[User:Jayjg|Jayjg]] ^{<small>[[User talk:Jayjg|<span style="color: DarkGreen;">(talk)</span>]]</small>} 15:57, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

::There are over 350 articles in the Critics of Islam category and only 16 in the Critics of Judaism category, while the latter could indeed be brought inline with this approach (I'm not opposed to that), there are probably not enough articles in it for it to be as useful. [[User:Ishbiliyya|Ishbiliyya]] ([[User talk:Ishbiliyya|talk]]) 17:06, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

* '''Delete all''' There are many basis to categorize critics of Islam but they all have problems. In the case of Jewish critics, the demographic group includes both religious and secular critics. The same is true for former Muslims, some who are critical from a religious perspective and others from a secular perspective. There are critics within Islam by sect, etc. I don't see the categories helpful to navigate the critics. We have articles on criticism of Islam and a category for the criticism. This seems sufficient. [[User:Jason from nyc|Jason from nyc]] ([[User talk:Jason from nyc|talk]]) 16:44, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

* '''Keep''': these are valid subdivisions of the category:Critics of Islam. Especially the Category:Former Muslim critics of Islam (which might require a rephrasing just for clarity, perhaps 'Former Muslims who criticise Islam'? Otherwise it suggests that these people criticised Islam back in the day when they were still Muslims themselves, but not necessarily after leaving Islam) has merit. Their lines of argument are often rather different from e.g. Christian critics of Islam, who often frame this debate in terms of 'Christian countries versus Islamic countries' and the need for immigration to from the latter to the former to stop and close the borders, whereas most ex-Muslims (many of whom are themselves migrants/refugees from Muslim-majority countries to (formerly) Christian-majority countries) regard this as unacceptable xenophobia, generalisations and a lack of humanitarianism. The kind of criticism you get from former members of a religion, who experienced it themselves, will always provide a different perspective than the criticism from outsiders. I think this is a useful distinction that Wikipedia should make. [[User:Nederlandse Leeuw|Nederlandse Leeuw]] ([[User talk:Nederlandse Leeuw|talk]]) 07:27, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

* '''Comment''' - I think the keep !votes of Ishbiliyya and Nederlandse Leeuw highlight the different reasons why individuals or movements might be critics of Islam, whether it for dogmatic, social, economic, cultural reasons etc. However at the same time I cannot support the keeping of these categories, namely because for many individuals their religious/spiritual/ideological positions are often private and/or do not neatly fit into one category, for example a former Muslim could be secular/irreligious such as [[Afshin Ellian]] or [[Ayaan Hirsi Ali]], or could belong to another religion such as [[Nabeel Qureshi (author)]] or [[Ali Sina (activist)]]. In these articles it would take two seperate categories to describe the same thing that one category did adequately. Also I am a bit hesitant over the "X critics of Y", as if for example the fact that an indidual is Hindu/Buddhist/Christian/Sikh etc. inavertly make it seem that their criticism is more/less valid than an irreligious/atheist/agnostic/secular individual? Lastley Islam like all religions and ideologies is far from homogeneous, there are a variety of movements and denominations within Islam, some of which are critics of each other. For example [[Ulil Abshar Abdalla]] often criticizes conservatic Muslim stances in Indonesia, and many conservative Muslims criticize him, so are they [[:Category:Muslim critics of Islam]]? I just see a can of worms being opened here that will lead to edit wars, sorry for the block of text [[User:Inter&#38;anthro|Inter&#38;anthro]] ([[User talk:Inter&#38;anthro|talk]]) 02:44, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

* '''Merge''' to [[:Category:Critics of Islam]], this type of categorization easily becomes too subjective. Many critics in this tree are Europeans and Americans and it is often unclear whether they should be classified as Christian or secular. [[User:Marcocapelle|Marcocapelle]] ([[User talk:Marcocapelle|talk]]) 22:04, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

* '''Keep all''' - I find the arguments in favor of keeping these categories far more persuasive than those favoring deletion.

**Regarding [[:Category:Former Muslim critics of Islam]], the solution is very simple: ''Hyphenation''. '''Rename to [[:Category:Former-Muslim critics of Islam]]. [[User:Anomalous+0|Anomalous+0]] ([[User talk:Anomalous+0|talk]]) 09:39, 13 April 2019 (UTC)

*'''Keep all''' -- Most of these are well populated, so that merging them would create a category too large to aid navigation. I would [[:Category:Ex-Muslim critics of Islam]]. I suspect that Muslim critics of Islam (if we had such category) would be better dealt with in another way.

If, for example, a house such as [[Mørup]] is connected with a notable person then that relationship should be covered by (referenced) article text (including links); categorization should be (just) grouping the house with other houses (i.e. articles about similar topics). <b>[[User:DexDor|DexDor]]</b>^{[[User talk:DexDor|(talk)]]} 11:44, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

:[[Decibel (magazine)]] is based in Philadelphia and covers heavy metal music while [[Rock Sound]] magazine is based in London and covers rock. Neither of categories are a traditional [[hall of fame]] so they don't represent a museum or a formal award ceremony. Rather, both publications have a re-occuring throwback article called "Hall of Fame" which discusses the influence of a classic album in their respective genre. When I clicked through these articles, I didn't see any other categories about having articles written about the albums which is probably a good thing since that would lead to immense category clutter. Music magazines write a ''lot'' of articles about music; it's what they do. These categories just don't seem defining. (The contents of the Rock Sound HOF are already listified [[Rock Sound#Hall of Fame/Throwback|here in the main article]] while the Decibel HOF list was deleted as [[WP:LISTCRUFT]] in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Decibel_(magazine)&diff=414144233&oldid=412066741 this edit] after [[Talk:Decibel (magazine)#hall of fame?|this discussion]].) - [[User:RevelationDirect|RevelationDirect]] ([[User talk:RevelationDirect|talk]]) 00:09, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

*'''Keep all''' -- If there is a physical museum (e.g. at a race course) whether called a museum or a "hall of fame", we should have an article, which can be categorised in the present category. If there is no physical museum, there certainly should not be a subcat for it. France has one article - on a museum; UK has three, of which the [[Royal Mews]] does not come anywhere near a hall of fame. I suspect it is more a museum of carriages.

* '''Merge''' per nom - aside from the considerations above, the purpose of categories is to help non-experts find stuff, so whilst some people like to micromanage the names I tend to emphasise consistency and predictability. Hence we have xxxx in France categories regardless of whether it should in theory be xxxx in the Kingdom of France at some points of history and eg xxxx in the French Republic at others. It makes it easier for people not expert in French history to use "France" categories - and also easier for navigation templates and other automatic processes. The benefits of that kind of thing far outweigh the slight reduction in historical precision.[[User:Le Deluge|Le Deluge]] ([[User talk:Le Deluge|talk]]) 12:41, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
