:''The result of the discussion was:'' <!-- Template:Cfd top --> '''do not rename'''. [[User:MER-C|MER-C]] 10:33, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
Propose renaming:
* [[:Category:University of California, Los Angeles alumni]] -> [[:Category:Alumni of the University of California, Los Angeles]]
Line 36 ⟶ 47:
* '''Keep''' - we have a working system with ''University of Foo stuff'' that is working well and pretty universal, although it is not entirely standardized, mostly due to the resistence of United Kingdom categories which follow their own conventions. I agree its a bit awkward with the coma in the middle, but the various campuses of UC are so universally known that nobody's surprised. Plus if we renamed these categories, they would be eligible to speedy renaming the other way per [[WP:C2C]]. And we have {{Cl|University of Montana faculty}} and {{Cl|University of Montana alumni}}. We also have [[:Category:University of the People people]], which is quite nice. [[User:Place Clichy|Place Clichy]] ([[User talk:Place Clichy|talk]]) 19:21, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
*:'''Comment''': None of those you are mentioning are two-part names. '''Keep''' is not an option, because the current names violate [[WP:Copyediting#Punctuation]]. Either we insert the comma – an alternative suggested by Oculi above – or we recast the category names. Regarding C2C, remember [[WP:CONSENSUSCANCHANGE]]. Even if something was agreed upon way back when because it seemed to be a good idea at the time, if it's later found to be not such a good idea, or that there are cases that people did not think of then, and that do not fit the pattern that was agreed upon, a new consensus can emerge. [[User:HandsomeFella|HandsomeFella]] ([[User talk:HandsomeFella|talk]]) 06:45, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
*'''Keep'''. I do a lot of alumni related categorization. The overwhelming majority of American schools are using the Alumni of xyz titles. There is no reason why it should change, especially for just one university. There is no compelling reason to change. Seems like the reason boils down to someone’s preference for one away over the other. If it is changes, to be consistent, change the hundreds of other alumni categories for all other schools from high school up.

*:'''Comment''': Well ok, then I guess we'll have to insert the comma. [[User:HandsomeFella|HandsomeFella]] ([[User talk:HandsomeFella|talk]]) 21:50, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
*'''Keep'''. We currently have largely standardized on "Alumni of ..." for the UK and some former colonies, and "... alumni" for the US and most other places, just as we have "Academics of ..." and "... faculty" with roughly the same geographic distribution. If we're going to deal with this dichotomy, doing it piecemeal on an institution-by-institution basis is not the way. And in general it's probably much less painful to cite [[WP:

:* '''Propose deleting''' {{lc|Language-oriented digital libraries}}<br />
:'''Nominator's rationale:''' Unhelpful intermediate category. Most libraries, digital or not, are "Language-oriented". This category did not include very much, and in particular nothing oriented towards English. I've now established categories for digital libraries by country, and, unsurprisingly, the libraries are all focused on the native language of their country, apart from the ancient languages. And Cuneiform, which isnt a language. All the articles are in at least one other digital library category. [[User:Rathfelder|Rathfelder]] ([[User talk:Rathfelder|talk]]) 09:30, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

:'''Nominator's rationale:''' We don't have a "high tech" tree.
