Revision as of 04:57, 7 April 2010
Speedy renaming and speedy merging
Categories may be listed here if they fall under the criteria specified below. Deletion and de-listing may occur after 48 hours if there are no objections. They must be tagged with {{subst:cfr-speedy|new name}} so that users of the categories are aware of the proposal. This delay is to allow for objections over correct spelling, etc. to be made and to ensure that items are not listed here that do not meet the criteria.
Categories that qualify for speedy deletion (per Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, e.g. "patent nonsense", "recreation", empty categories (that have been empty for four days) can be tagged with the regular speedy tags, such as {{db|reason}}, and no delay is required for these.
Contested requests can be removed from this list after 48 hours. If the nominator wants to continue the process they need to submit the request as a regular CfD using the instructions above.
Speedy criteria
Criteria for speedy deletion, renaming, or merging are strictly limited to:
From 20 November 2009 to 4 December 2013 the policy page Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion transcluded the criteria for deletion of categories from a discussion page instead of having them directly coded in the policy page. To see the history of that section of the speedy deletion policy during that period, see the editing history of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy/Criteria. For current discussion page for the same material see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy#Speedy criteria.
A nomination to merge or rename, brought forward as a full CfD, may be speedily closed if the closing administrator is satisfied that:
- The nomination clearly falls within one of the criteria listed above, and;
- No objections have been made within 48 hours of the initial nomination.
- If both these conditions are satisfied, the closure will be regarded as having been as a result of a speedy nomination. If any objections have been raised then the CfD nomination will remain in place for the usual 7 day discussion period, to be decided in accordance with expressed consensus.
Add requests for speedy renaming here
If the category and desired change do not match one of the criteria in C2 listed above, do not list it here. Instead, list it in the main CFD section.
If you are in any doubt as to whether it qualifies, do not list it here.
Use the following format:
- * [[:Category:OLD name]] to [[:Category:NEW name]] ~~~~
Don't forget to tag the category with {{subst:Cfr-speedy|new name}}
Please add new entries at the top of the list and sign and date stamp your entries with ~~~~.
A request may be completed if it is more than 48 hours old; that is, the time stamp shown is 18:21, 9 August 2024 (UTC) or earlier.

- At first glance, this may be redundant to Category:Association football organizations or one of its subcategories, so a full CfD to merge may be needed. If a merge is not appropriate, then perhaps renaming to the shorter and more general Category:Association football federations would work. -- Black Falcon (talk) 05:17, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

- Objection: a similar set of renamings from "Southwest Asia" to "Western Asia" is being discussed at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2010 March 19#Category:Western_Asia. This renaming should be considered along with that discussion. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 10:33, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
- The discussion has been relisted to Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2010 April 4#Western Asia, so perhaps this could simply be added to the list of nominated categories at the CfD. -- Black Falcon (talk) 05:21, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Ready for deletion
Check Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion for out of process deletions. In most cases, these will need to be nominated for discussion and the editor who emptied the category informed that they should follow the WP:CFD process.
Once the renaming has been completed, copy and paste the listing to the Ready for deletion section of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Working/Manual.
