:::*As I mentioned above, all (''direct'') subcategories in '''Category:University of Montana''' are in the proposed format. Not ''Alumni of'' though (which is a subcat to the ''People of'' subcat).

* '''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)

*:'''Commment''': AllNone of those you are mentioning are not two-part names. '''Keep''' is not an option here, because the current names violate [[WP:Copyediting#Punctuation]]. Either we insert the comma – an alternatve 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 decision can be made.
