The result of the discussion was:no consensus. Given that reliable sources and existing article names support the existing category name, this is highly unlikely to receive a consensus to rename at a subsequent relisting. No prejudice against a speedy renomination so long as all editors here are notified, but I don't think this needs relisting. (non-admin closure) ~ RobTalk18:25, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The term "NBA championship seasons" is vague since "championship" could refer to division, conference or Finals. The proper name is NBA Finals, and the word "champion" should be used since it refers to the team and not the event. Jrcla2 (talk) 20:59, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
OpposeNBA championship commonly refers to the league championship, not a lesser conference or division championship. See List of NBA champions, an FL whose name uses the same naming convention when referring to the league champions. If there is any reasonable doubt, the description for Category:NBA championship seasons already clearly states: "This category lists the seasons of basketball teams that won the NBA Finals."—Bagumba (talk) 08:25, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

... as well as the parent category, Category:Academic disciplines. Pruning may be necessary -- with the addition of things like his Military works, it seems to me that Stefanomione was just muddying the waters again -- but this could be a workable category. No objection if someone wants to propose a better solution, including outright deletion. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:07, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support to remove ambiguity - but note that (1) there are links to the category (e.g. from Category:Works by topic) that should be updated and (2) there are by-discipline subcats that should also be renamed. An alternative I would support is to merge this category (+subcats) into Category:Works by topic (+subcats). DexDor(talk)21:32, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Another terminal-stage Stefanomione creation in May that seems to be utterly pointless, useless to anyone other than himself, and an obstacle to easy and intuitive navigation for our readers. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:55, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In one of Stefanomione's final acts that led to the ANI that saw him banned, here he mixes together seemingly anything and everything as a "discipline"... from forensics to the arts to politics to healthcare, etc., etc.

Keep Useful, sufficiently large category. Not prone to attracting numerous WP:NARROWCATs exactly because almost all of these are in Burkina Faso, so will probably never pose a problem for us. --PanchoS (talk) 12:32, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The parent category is small enough for all content in this subcategory to fit in. The vast majority of Pan-Africanist political parties are in Africa anyway Charles Essie (talk) 18:19, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Useful, sufficiently large category. Not prone to attracting numerous WP:NARROWCATs exactly because (almost) all of these are either in Africa or in the Carribean, so will probably never pose a problem for us. --PanchoS (talk) 12:33, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Charles Essie: Personally, I don't think so. Frankly, I'm often in favor of yet another intersection that allows clean parenting to quite specific categories, as long as they don't produce or evoke a heap of WP:NARROWCATs. But let others decide. I'm not married with these ones. --PanchoS (talk) 02:24, 4 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Category created with no apparent understanding of what categories are for, and states an intention to add a wide variety of unrelated topics BilCat (talk) 15:17, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
