Speedy deletion |
Proposed deletion |
Speedy renaming or speedy merging of categories may be requested only if they meet a speedy criterion, for example WP:C2D (consistency with main article's name) or WP:C2C (consistency with established category tree names). Please see instructions below.
- Determine which speedy criterion applies
- Tag category page with
{{subst:cfr-speedy|New name}}
- List request along with speedy criteria reason under "Current requests" below on this page
Please note that a speedy request must state which of the narrowly defined criteria strictly applies. Hence, any other non-speedy criteria, even "common sense" or "obvious", may be suitable points, but only at a full discussion at WP:Categories for discussion.
Request may take 48 hours to process after listing if there are no objections. This delay allows other users to review the request to ensure that it meets the speedy criteria for speedy renaming or merging, and to raise objections to the proposed change.
Categories that qualify for speedy deletion (per Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, e.g., "patent nonsense", "recreation") can be tagged with the regular speedy tags, such as {{db|reason}}
with no required delay. Empty categories can be deleted if they remain empty 7 days after tagging with {{db-empty}}. Renaming under C2E may also be processed instantly (at the discretion of an administrator) as it is a variation on G7.
To oppose a speedy request you must record your objection within 48 hours of the nomination. Do this by inserting immediately under the nomination:
- Oppose, (the reasons for your objection). ~~~~
You will not be able to do this by editing the page WP:Categories for discussion. Instead, you should edit the section WP:Categories for discussion#Add requests for speedy renaming and merging here or the page WP:Categories for discussion/Speedy#Add requests for speedy renaming and merging here (WP:CFDS). Be aware that in the course of any discussion, the nomination and its discussion may get moved further down the page purely for organizational convenience – you may need to search WP:CFDS to find the new location. Participate in any ongoing discussion, but unless you withdraw your opposition, a knowledgeable person may eventually bring forward the nomination and discussion to become a regular CFD discussion. At that stage you may add further comments, but your initial opposition will still be considered. However, if after seven days there has been no support for the request, and no response from the nominator, the request may be dropped from further consideration as a speedy.
Contested speedy requests become stale, and can be untagged and delisted after 7 days of inactivity. Optionally, if the discussion may be useful for future reference, it may be copied to the category talk page, with a section heading and {{moved discussion from|[[WP:CFDS]]|2=~~~~}}
. If the nominator wants to revive the process, this may be requested at WP:Categories for discussion (CfD) in accordance with its instructions.
If you belatedly notice and want to oppose a speedy move that has already been processed, contact one of the admins who process the Speedy page. If your objection seems valid, they may reverse the move, or start a full CFD discussion.
Speedy criteria
The category-specific criteria for speedy renaming, or merging are strictly limited to:
C2A: Typographic and spelling fixes
- Correction of spelling errors and capitalization fixes. Differences between British and American spelling (e.g. Harbours → Harbors) are not considered errors; however if the convention of the relevant category tree is to use one form over the other then a rename may be appropriate under C2C. If both spellings exist as otherwise-identical category names, they should be merged.
- Appropriate conversion of hyphens into en dashes or vice versa (e.g. Category:Canada-Russia relations → Category:Canada–Russia relations).
- Correction of obvious grammatical errors, such as a missing conjunction (e.g. Individual frogs toads → Individual frogs and toads). This includes pluralizing a noun in the name of a set category, but not when disagreement might reasonably be anticipated as to whether the category is a topic or set category.
C2B: Consistency with established Wikipedia naming conventions and practices
- Expanding abbreviated country names (e.g. U.S. → United States).
- Disambiguation fixes from an unqualified name (e.g. Category:Washington → Category:Washington (state) or Category:Washington, D.C.).
C2C: Consistency with established category tree names
Bringing a category into line with established naming conventions for that category tree, or into line with the various "x by y", "x of y", or "x in y" categorization conventions specified at Wikipedia:Category names
- This should be used only where there is no room for doubt that the category in question is being used for the standard purpose instead of being a potential subcategory.
- This criterion should be applied only when there is no ambiguity or doubt over the existence of a category naming convention. Such a convention must be well defined and must be overwhelmingly used within the tree. If this is not the case then the category in question must be brought forward to a full Cfd nomination.
- This criterion will not apply in cases where the category tree observes distinctions in local usage (e.g. Category:Transportation in the United States and Category:Transport in the United Kingdom).
C2D: Consistency with main article's name
- Renaming a topic category to match its eponymous page (e.g. Category:The Beatles and The Beatles).
- This applies only if the related page's current name (and by extension, the proposed name for the category) is:
- unambiguous (so it generally does not apply to proposals to remove a disambiguator from the category name, even when the main article is the primary topic of its name, i.e. it does not contain a disambiguator); and
- uncontroversial, either because of longstanding stability at that particular name, or because the page was just moved (i) after a page move discussion resulted in explicit consensus to rename, or (ii) unilaterally to reflect an official renaming which is verified by one or more citations (provided in the nomination). C2D does not apply if the result would be contrary to guidelines at WP:CATNAME, or there is any ongoing discussion about the name of the page or category, or there has been a recent discussion concerning any of the pages that resulted in a no consensus result, or it is controversial in some other way.
- This criterion may also be used to rename a set category in the same circumstances, where the set is defined by a renamed topic; e.g. players for a sports team, or places in a district.
- Before nominating a category to be renamed per WP:C2D, consider whether it makes more sense to move the article instead of the category.
C2E: Author request
- This criterion applies only if the author of a category requests or agrees to renaming within six months of creating the category.
- The criterion does not apply if other editors have populated or changed the category since it was created. "Other editors" includes bots that populated the category, but excludes an editor working with the author on the renaming.
C2F: One eponymous article
- This criterion applies if the category contains only an eponymous article, list or media file, provided that the category has not otherwise been emptied shortly before the nomination. The default outcome is an upmerge to the parent categories, where applicable. Nominations should use
{{subst:cfm-speedy}}
(speedy merger) linking to a suitable parent category, or to another appropriate category (e.g. one that is currently on the article).
Admin instructions
When handling the listings:
- Make sure that the listing meets one of the above criteria.
- With the exception of C2E, make sure that it was both listed and tagged at least 48 hours previously.
- Make sure that there is no opposition to the listing; if there is a discussion, check if the opposing user(s) ended up withdrawing their opposition.
If the listing meets these criteria, simply have the category renamed or merged – follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Administrator instructions, in the section "If the decision is to Rename, Merge, or Delete"; to list it for the bots, use the Speedy moves section.
Applying speedy criteria in full discussions
- 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 the scope of one of the criteria listed here, 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 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 and merging here
If the category and desired change do not match one of the criteria mentioned in C2, 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 on a new line at the beginning of the list:
* [[:Category:old name]] to [[:Category:new name]] – Reason ~~~~
(The four ~ will sign and datestamp the entry automatically.)
If the current name should be redirected rather than deleted, use:
* REDIRECT [[:Category:old name]] to [[:Category:new name]] – Reason ~~~~
To note that human action is required, e.g. updating a template that populates the category, use:
* NO BOTS [[:Category:old name]] to [[:Category:new name]] – Reason ~~~~
Remember to tag the category page with: {{subst:Cfr-speedy|New name}}
A request may be completed if it is more than 48 hours old; that is, if the time stamp shown is earlier than 00:07, 17 June 2024 (UTC). Currently, there are 395 open requests (. )
![]() | Administrators and page movers: Do not use the "Move" tab to move categories listed here!Categories are processed following the 48-hour discussion period and are moved by a bot. |
Current requests
Please add new requests at the top of the list, preferably with a link to the parent category (in case of C2C) or relevant article (in case of C2D).

All of these articles were only recently moved, and thus I oppose speedy until a reliable source is provided about the recent name change.Armbrust The Homunculus 16:08, 17 February 2023 (UTC)- The page move actually reflects a change the school made in 2015. The NCAA tries to use schools' preferred athletic brand names in its official publications. (As an aside, one exception is its use of "Southern California" instead of USC because the initials can also refer to the University of South Carolina.) I'll use football as an example. The NCAA's official record book for FCS football (which McNeese has been part of since the early 1980s) has a section for conference standings. The 2015 record book, covering the 2014 season, shows "McNeese St." in the Southland Conference standings for that season (page 4). The 2015 standings, found in the 2016 record book, show the same school as "McNeese" (page 4 again). — Dale Arnett (talk) 19:28, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

- Oppose speedy renaming to Category:Medieval Macedonia (region). C2D does not apply as there is no article by that name, with reason. There's no obvious reason for the region disambiguator here, as it can't be anything but. The confusion between the country now known as North Macedonia, the Greek province and the wider region does not make sense in the Middle Age. Place Clichy (talk) 23:47, 15 February 2023 (UTC)

- What if there was a Polish writer writing in English that wasn't from Poland? Joseph Conrad was born in today's Ukraine in time when Poland wasn't on the map Marcelus (talk) 08:14, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Marcelus "Polish writers in English" really doesn't make much sense grammatically, and the new name would match other entries in Category:English-language writers by nationality. ~ Eejit43 (talk) 02:53, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Why change something short to something much longer? Marcelus (talk) 19:54, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
- Category:Philosophers of art to Category:Aestheticians – C2B: Relevant list is List of aestheticians, field is Aesthetics - car chasm (talk) 18:52, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose Carchasm, Aesthetician is a disambiguation page. TSventon (talk) 18:57, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Category:Canadian Ku Klux Klan members to Category:Ku Klux Klan members in Canada – C2C: Consistency with established category tree name NeoBatfreak (talk) 20:25, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose, this conflicts with the "Canadian" parent categories. Instead, Category:Ku Klux Klan members in the United States should be nominated. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:18, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Category:Justification (epistemology) to Category:Justification – C2B. - car chasm (talk) 23:04, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

- Category:Quaker meeting houses to Category:Friends meeting house – C2D. User:Namiba 13:37, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose speedy. Namiba The overall category is Category:Quakerism and then Category:Quaker meetings, which are consistent with the current name. Also there are numerous subcategories that should also be changed if this one is. TSventon (talk) 23:50, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

- Category:Spartacus music to Category:Depictions of Spartacus in music – C2A: "___ music" generally refers to genres or types of music, not music that happen to be about a specific person. ★Trekker (talk) 16:25, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
- @StarTrekker: or just Category:Spartacus in music? Marcocapelle (talk) 21:53, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Marcocapelle: Similar categories for Romans and other ancient figures are at Category:Depictions of Julius Caesar in music and Category:Depictions of Cleopatra in music, which match their sibling categories.★Trekker (talk) 21:56, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
- OK. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:57, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose speedy There is no clear convention in Category:Music about individual people for the proposed format and I don't think C2A is applicable in any way. Armbrust The Homunculus 17:16, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

- It would be better to refer to the library, but its name is the "IMF eLibrary" and this would suffice.[1] Shall we add this to the list for a full CFD? – Fayenatic London 21:42, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

- Oppose These users have access to "Baylor University Press", but as that doesn't has an article this can't be speedily renamed. Armbrust The Homunculus 18:45, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- I believe that the redirect Baylor University Press might be still valid for C2D. Gonnym (talk) 19:14, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
