May 6

Category:Journalism in Pakistan to Category:Pakistani media

Relist from Wikipedia:Categories for deletion/Log/2006 April 24: The result of the debate was relist (tag was removed on 1 May, probably why there was only one vote) Tim! 11:36, 6 May 2006 (UTC) Tim! 11:42, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is an unnecessary complication and perhaps unique to Pakistan (I'm half way through checking the "journalists by country" cateogories and this is the first "Journalism" category I have encountered). Pakistan has a media category, and like other countries has or can have separate categories for each branch of media. Merge. Bhoeble 16:39, 24 April 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Merge per nom. Merchbow 23:33, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:War on terror

Cateogries entitled with a propaganda term can never be made neutral. (original proposal by De mortuis...) Añoranza 08:07, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question: What is the proposed new name ? US War on Terror ? We still need a name for the replacement category. -- PFHLai 09:04, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People who have died in hotel rooms

If we want to keep this, it should be relocated to a less awkward title. Perhaps:

Category:People who died in hotel rooms
Category:People found dead in hotel rooms
Category:Hotel room deaths

Using the present perfect tense implies, for many readers, that the subject is still living, which is confusing in the context of this category. — May. 6, '06 [07:52] <freakofnur_xture|talk>

Why don't you just move it? Añoranza 08:08, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Because I'd like some input as to what the best title would be, and I had three different ideas come to mind. — May. 6, '06 [09:37] <freakofnur_xture|talk>

Categories can not be renamed by moving: they must be proposed here at WP:CFD, then deleted and remade. ×Meegs 09:43, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rename – I'm not certain if we should have this cat, but all three options would be an improvement. I very slightly prefer People found dead in hotel rooms. ×Meegs 09:43, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Rename to "People found dead in hotel rooms." "Hotel room deaths" notably matches the category:Firearm deaths, suggesting a causal link between the hotel room and the death.--Mike Selinker 13:03, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Rename to "People who died in hotel rooms" 'found' implies that they died alone and were found, which could technically eliminate many names from the list. Doc 14:03, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unused. Conscious 07:26, 6 May 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Redirect to Category:British architecture writers -- ProveIt ^(talk) 14:30, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Disney Character to Category:Images of Disney characters

The category contains the images of Disney characters and is populated by {{DisneyCharacter}}. The current name is not descriptive. Conscious 07:20, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rename per nom -- ProveIt ^(talk) 14:31, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Dinosaur

Empty and redundant to Category:Dinosaurs. Marked as category redirect, not sure why. Conscious 04:48, 6 May 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Category:Indo China

This is a category about "things which are common to both India and China", apparently a misunderstanding of what "Indo China" means. Content is currently limited to one subcat, Category:Indo China Kingdoms. Something will have to be done about that as well. Nat Krause^(Talk!) 04:13, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Childrens Books on Homosexuality to Category:Category:Children's books about sexuality

Corrected punctuation and caps; more accurate description. Her Pegship 03:40, 6 May 2006 (UTC).[reply]

That's not more accurate, as it would allow for the works of Judy Blume, say, who wrote about sex but not homosexuality. This category documents the same-sex family children's book phenomenon, and thus shouldn't reach beyond that. So I suggest a rename to category:LGBT children's books to parallel category:LGBT art, category:LGBT newspapers, et al. (And we should remove the word "heterosexual" from the description, as that's not part of the "LBGTQIPPS" uber-acronym.)--Mike Selinker 13:11, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Urban Culture

Not a useful category due to a lack of well-defined criteria for inclusion Pak21 00:07, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
