Wikipedia:Categories for deletion/Log/2006 June 15
June 15
At first I was merely going to send this to speedy for recapitalization, but similar categories use "Muslim". Sumahoy 01:05, 15 June 2006 (UTC).
- Rename as nom. Sumahoy 01:05, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Rename to match category:People by occupation. Sumahoy 01:00, 15 June 2006 (UTC).
- These ought to be merged, no preference as to how -- ProveIt (talk) 00:50, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Contains only two items, both of which will shortly be removed per a recent unanimous decision on Wikipedia:WikiProject Dinosaurs regarding superfluous categories. Category was created by User:Elmo12456, who did not consult the team members, and only added the category to four pages (out of 800 genera). The group's decision is that such a category was arbitrary because diet of dinosaurs is speculative in many instances.--Firsfron of Ronchester 00:36, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
- From talk page:
This is category creep. Eventually, the majority of templates will either incorporate at least a couple parser functions or become obselete. — Jun. 9, '06 [14:50] <freak|talk>
- Hi Freak. I created this out of fear we'd have a hard time finding the PF using templates. But I agree with your sentiment. If that PF stuff is stable enough (as it seems so), there isn't much reason for this cat here anymore. I wouldn't have a problem if you nominate this for deletion. --Ligulem 14:57, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
Additional concerns I have about this category:
- I would estimate that it is less than 50% complete anyway.
- It doesn't include templates that call a sub-template using parser functions, due to <noinclude>.
- If the subtemplate is substed into the first template, the parser function is forever present and the categorization is forever lost.
- It's impossible to maintain.
