Category:Transgender serial killers

• Propose deleting Category:Transgender serial killers (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
  

Nominator's rationale: There are only two entries, which could be handled by simply ==See also== linking them, and the category also seems unusual as there is not e.g. a Category:African-American serial killers or Category:Hindu serial killers: it seems serial killers are otherwise only categorized by nationality and by whether they are male or female, which both entries in this category already are. -sche (talk) 23:06, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Model railroad manufacturers

• Propose merging Category:Model railroad manufacturers to Category:Toy train manufacturers

Nominator's rationale: Substantial overlap of concept. Many manufacturers produce stuff for both ends of the market, and people who start off with toy trains progress to models. There is no clear boundary between them. Maybe needs a different name - perhaps "Toy and model railway manufacturers" or "Rail transport modelling companies"? Rathfelder (talk) 17:16, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There is a clear distinction between a Scale model and a toy; which I seem to remember being discussed here before. I don't think merging these two is actually gone to improve things. Twiceuponatime (talk) 09:21, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• I think you are wrong to suggest there is a clear distinction between the two. There is a continuum. Some products are clearly toys, some are clearly models, many can be seen as either. Toy trains are all made to a scale. Rathfelder (talk) 14:56, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• ...and they are quite distinct. Twiceuponatime is right - there is a clear distinction. Grutness...wha? 15:44, 13 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Reverse merge or do not merge at all. Category:Model railroad manufacturers would seem to be a better umbrella term, but as Category:Toy trains is a distinct subcategory of Category:Rail transport modelling, I do not see an obvious reason to merge the manufacturers. There is however a continuum between the two. Place Clichy (talk) 10:54, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. Model railways and toy trains are different things, as Twiceuponatime points out. There are some companies, however, which manufacture both, hence the incorrect perception of a continuum. I would, however, support a renaming of the proposed category to Category:Model rail manufacturers as a language neutral form. Grutness...wha? 15:44, 13 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Wikipedians who use Chromebook

• Propose deleting Category:Wikipedians who use Chromebook (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
  

Nominator's rationale: Similarly to previous discussion about operating systems, categorization of users by hardware is not helpful. —⁠andrybak (talk) 15:52, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Redundant Category and is not needed. --Thegooduser Life Begins With a Smile :) 🍁 01:17, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. Place Clichy (talk) 10:54, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:County of Aragon

• Propose renaming Category:County of Aragon to Category:Counts of Aragon

Nominator's rationale: rename, per actual content of the category, it contains biographies of counts, rather than history articles about the county. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:05, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As the one who created the category, I agree with the change. Maragm (talk) 14:06, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Support These are the rulers of the County, not other articles relating to it. Dimadick (talk) 21:07, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Support per nom (was Delete by mistake), as there is unlikely to be much specific content to the County period in the history of Aragon, besides the list of counts. Place Clichy (talk) 10:54, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  It is not clear why you would not keep the category as Category:Counts of Aragon though. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:20, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  @Marcocapelle: Sorry, I meant Rename as nom, of course. Place Clichy (talk) 09:03, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Support -- but County of Aragon (a substantive article) should be used as a main article (as well as a list article for rulers). We are unlikely to get other content on this small polity. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:05, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Countesses of Barcelona

• Propose deleting Category:Countesses of Barcelona (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
  

Nominator's rationale: delete, with two exceptions (Ermesinde of Carcassonne and Almodis de la Marche) this category only contains queen-consorts of Aragon, who already are in Category:Aragonese queen consorts and for whom countess of Barcelona was a mere secondary title. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:14, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose This would removed them from the Countesses category tree with no real reason. Dimadick (talk) 21:08, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• That can easily be solved, I will add the parents Category:Spanish countesses, Category:Catalan nobility, Category:Medieval Catalan women to the two beforementioned articles, once this category is deleted. There is no need to add these to the queen-consorts of Aragon. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:05, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose. Count of Barcelona is a list that shows that several move countesses would be eligible even if queen-consorts of Aragon are kept out, and at least 2 already have an article: Douce I, Countess of Provence and Petronilla of Aragon (who was queen-regnant of Aragon and countess-consort of Barcelona, and brought Aragon in the House of Barcelona). Also, the title of Count of Barcelona was later revived, first by Louis XIII of France, then by 20th-century Infante Juan, Count of Barcelona, so their spouses are probably considered countesses as well.

Category:Calixa-Lavallée Award winners

• Propose deleting Category:Calixa-Lavallée Award winners (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
  

Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:OCAWARD, just one of many awards in this field. Besides, the main article already contains a list. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:04, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom e.g. non-defining for Serge Garant. All the articles currently in the category are in the list at Calixa-Lavallée Award. DexDor ^(talk) 13:51, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. Place Clichy (talk) 10:54, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• DElete - yet another OCAWARD case. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:06, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
