Categories for discussion (CfD) is the central venue for discussing specific proposals to delete, merge, rename or split categories and stub types in accordance with the guidelines for categorization, category naming and stub articles.
For detailed instructions about using CfD, see "How to use CfD" below. Briefly, nominations are handled through one of two processes:
- Speedy renaming and merging, for uncontroversial proposals that meet specified criteria—see "Speedy renaming and merging" below.
- Full discussion, for all other proposals. Discussions typically remain open for at least seven days and are closed once a rough consensus has formed or no objections to the nomination are raised.
Except in uncontroversial cases such as reverting vandalism, do not amend or depopulate a category once it has been nominated at CfD as this hampers other editors' efforts to evaluate a category and participate in the discussion.
When a category is renamed or merged with another category, in limited circumstances it may be helpful to leave an instance of the {{Category redirect|...}} template on the category's former page. See "Redirecting categories" below for more information.
Wikipedia:Move review can be used to contest the outcome of a CfD request that is limited in scope to renaming, as long as all steps are followed. If a discussion on the request closer's talk page does not resolve an issue, then a move review will evaluate the close of a CfD move discussion to determine whether or not the close was reasonable and consistent with the spirit and intent of common practice, policies, and guidelines. CfDs involving deletion should be reviewed at Wikipedia:Deletion review.
Scope
CfD is intended only for specific proposals to delete, merge, rename or split categories or stub types. For general discussion about how to improve the category system, use other appropriate venues such as Wikipedia talk:Categorization, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Categories, and any relevant WikiProjects' talk pages.

How to use CfD
Nomination procedure
Twinkle
You may use Twinkle to facilitate CfD nominations. To install Twinkle, go to Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets and check "Twinkle" in the "Browsing" section. Use the now-installed "XfD" (Start a deletion discussion) tab while viewing the page you want to nominate.
Twinkle only allows you to nominate a single category or stub template. For bundled nominations including multiple categories, see § MassCFD.
MassCFD
You can use the script User:Qwerfjkl/scripts/massXFD to automatically make mass nominations.
Manual nominations
I | Preliminary steps.
Before nominating a category:
In the following special cases:
For further information, see Wikipedia:Categorization and Wikipedia:Manual of Style. |
II | Edit the category.
Add one of the following templates at the beginning of the category page (not the talk page) of every category to be discussed. For nominations involving large numbers of categories, help adding these templates can be requested here.

Stub types
I | Preliminary steps.
In general, a stub type consists of a stub template and a dedicated stub category. Before nominating a stub type for deletion, merging or renaming:
|
II | Edit the template.
Add one of the following tags at the beginning of the template to be discussed.
|
III | Create the CFD section.
Click THIS LINK to edit the section of CfD for today's entries. Follow the instructions (visible in edit mode) and paste the following text (remember to update the default parameters):
|
Notifying interested projects and editors
In addition to the steps listed above, you may choose to invite participation by editors who are likely to be informed about a nominated category. All such efforts must comply with Wikipedia's guideline against biased canvassing. In addition, to help make your messages about the CfD discussion clear, avoid Wikipedia-specific abbreviations, link to relevant policies or guidelines, and link to the discussion itself.
- Notifying related WikiProjects
WikiProjects consist of groups of editors who are interested in a particular subject. If a nominated category is within the scope of one or more WikiProjects, consider adding a brief, neutral note on their talk page(s) about the nomination. You may use {{subst:cfd notice|Category name|2024 August 26|CfD section name}} ~~~~
or write a personalized message.
Tagging the nominated category's talk page with a relevant WikiProject's banner will include the category in that WikiProject's Article Alerts if they subscribe to the system. For instance, tagging a nominated category with {{WikiProject Physics}} will add the discussion to Wikipedia:WikiProject Physics/Article alerts.
- Notifying substantial contributors to the category
While not required, it is generally considered courteous to notify the good-faith creator and main contributors of the category that you are nominating for discussion. To find the creator and main contributors, check the category's page history or talk page. You may use {{Cfd notice}}
to inform the category's creator and all other editors.
- Notifying other interested editors
It may be helpful to invite other subject-matter experts by posting a message on the talk page of the most closely related article, such as Protein family for Category:Protein families. You may use {{Cfdnotice}}
for this.
Closing procedure
After seven days, someone will close the discussion according to the consensus that formed or, if needed, relist it to allow more discussion. Editors closing discussions must follow the administrator instructions and, except in the case of a "keep" or "no consensus" outcome, implement the result or log it at the Working page to ensure it is implemented.
Redirecting categories
In general, an unpopulated category should be deleted (see speedy deletion criterion C1) because it is not useful for navigation and sorting. In limited circumstances, and because categories cannot be redirected using "hard" redirects (i.e. #REDIRECT[[''target'']]
), we use a form of "soft redirect" to solve the issue. You can create a category redirect by adding {{Category redirect|target}}
to the category page. Bots patrol these categories and move articles into the "redirect" targets.
In particular, category redirects are used at the former category name when we convert hyphens into en dashes (e.g. Category:Canada-Russia relations → Category:Canada–Russia relations). It is also helpful to set up category redirects from titles with plain letters (i.e. characters on a standard keyboard) where the category names include diacritics.
A list of redirected categories is available at Category:Wikipedia soft redirected categories.
Speedy renaming and merging
![]() | This page has a backlog that requires the attention of willing editors. Please remove this notice when the backlog is cleared. |
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}}
or{{subst:cfm-speedy|Merge target}}
- 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 page
- This criterion applies if the category contains only an eponymous article, list, template 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 ~~~~
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 04:37, 24 August 2024 (UTC). Currently, there are 593 open requests (. )

Also see List of national monuments of the United States. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:30, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment — The 2019 renaming referred to above occurred via WP:RM/TR after two previous unsuccessful attempts through the standard RM process. In other words, someone went venue-shopping for a less discerning group of editors. It wasn't uncontroversial then and shouldn't be considered uncontroversial now. I'd bet the same circumstances apply to other pages nominated alongside this one. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 04:34, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

- Category:Minister of Land Administration and Land Reforms to Category:Land administration and land reforms ministers – C2C. HueMan1 (talk) 06:42, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- @HueMan1: This should be Category:Ministers of land administration and land reforms. No reason to refactor the title like that. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:45, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Hey man im josh: I should've stated the reason here. This is the only category in Category:Government ministers of Bangladesh that uses this format. HueMan1 (talk) 22:58, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- @HueMan1: All the state minister categories follow the standard naming of Ministers of xyz of country. Additionally, if you look at Ministry of Land & Land Reforms (West Bengal) refers to them as Monsters of... Instead of "... minister". I understand you're going for consistency, but I believe it's probably supposed to be moving the categories the opposite way. That's been an effort of mine as I get through a lot of these categories, which seem to have been mistakenly converted to XYZ minister of country instead. Hey man im josh (talk) 01:18, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- To be clear, I oppose this nomination based on "Minister of Land & Land Reforms" being the title of the person at the target. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:34, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

- The Bahamas is one of only two countries in the world where "The" is always capitalized as part of its official name, the other country being The Gambia. All the other subcategories are incorrectly named, and should have the "The" capitalized.

Oppose. I see that Mclay1 moved the article from Shrines to the Virgin Mary to Shrines to Mary, mother of Jesus two weeks ago. Marian shrines might be a preferable title, per ngrams. Ham II (talk) 12:50, 17 August 2024 (UTC)- @Ham II: Surely we should move the category to match the current article name (which is consistent with other Mary articles and categories) and then have a discussion on the article talk page about renaming the article? No point having two different names in the meantime. Mclay1 (talk) 15:55, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- OK, that's fair. I've struck my opposition and will do an RM at some point. Ultimately I think this category should be at Category:Marian shrines and Category:Holy wells of St Mary should be at Category:Marian holy wells. Ham II (talk) 06:59, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Procedural oppose, this is not uncontroversial, considering the parallel discussions in full CfD. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:12, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

- @Hey man im josh: are you ok with "from" too? If not, this should go to full discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:13, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Marcocapelle: Category:Zhou dynasty people by state has 17 categories, three of which were part of this nom. I don't feel particular strongly, but I would expect that someone would immediately follow up with the other 13 categories in that category that use "people of", to make it consistent. I would also very much appreciate a link to a discussion that led to consensus about using "people from" instead of "people of", preferably on my talk page, for my own reference and notes to share to others in situations like this.

Speedy nominations
Category:Wikipedians in Grand Forks
- Speedy rename to Category:Wikipedians in Grand Forks, North Dakota for clarification. VegaDark (talk) 23:07, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Category:NUI Maynooth Wikipedians
- Speedy rename to Category:Wikipedians by alma mater: National University of Ireland, Maynooth per standard naming conventions. VegaDark (talk) 23:07, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Category:User Save the humans pages
- Speedy delete per extensive precedent to delete personal userspace categories. VegaDark (talk) 23:07, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Category:WTF Taekwondo participants
- Speedy merge to Category:Wikipedian taekwondoka WTF as redundant and as having no indication it is a user category. Target category could possibly use a UCFD of its own in the future. VegaDark (talk) 23:07, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Category:Sahrawi Wikipedians
Empty except for a template and wikipedia-space page, no actual users in the category. VegaDark (talk) 16:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy delete as nom. VegaDark (talk) 16:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Question I'm not sure what to make of this, or how to even articulate my question, so just imagine this scenario: If a user signs up now who is Norwegian, there is already Category:Norwegian Wikipedians and he will be automatically added to that category by adding the appropriate userbox. If a Sahrawi Wikipedian signs up in the future, he may well add this userbox, but not be added to the category because it was deleted now. Why would the category be deleted pre-emptive of a user signing up for it? I can understand deleting, say, Akkadian Wikipedians, as that nation no longer exists, but I don't see the rationale in deleting this as it has just as much utility as Norwegian Wikipedians, only for Sahrawis who may not have registered on (English) Wikipedia yet. -Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:16, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete per Nom. The Master thinks "If" scenario silly. Master Redyva (talk) 22:22, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete with no prejudice to recreation if/when Sahrawi Wikipedians (or even one) wish to identify as such. —ScouterSig 14:20, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Category:WikiOtters
"WikiOtters are elusive creatures that are endangered, much like the WikiDragon. They help a different user out by editing or simply being friendly". Fringe category of WikiGnomes and WikiFairies, similar categories were deleted here. VegaDark (talk) 22:13, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

- Delete &/or exterminate. Master Redyva (talk) 22:25, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - the inclusion criteria are too general to form the basis of useful categorisation: friendliness is a great trait in editors, but it's not really something that's well-suited to categorisation. Black Falcon (Talk) 01:41, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Category:Popping Wikipedians
"This user is into popping and specializes in {hitting, ticking, botting, etc}". At minimum needs rename to match naming conventions at Category:Wikipedian dancers, but my first choice would be to delete as too narrow for collaboration as it appears to be a single-article category. VegaDark (talk) 22:13, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete as nom, rename to Category:Wikipedian poppers if no consensus to delete. VegaDark (talk) 22:13, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per VegaDark's WikiWisdom. Master Redyva (talk) 22:26, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep but rename One article for the topic, but there are likely articles about notable dancers, as well as articles that are related that would be of interest to those interested in popping (I have no idea if that just made sense.. probably need to go to bed and get some sleep). -- Ned Scott 08:28, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per single-article category. --Kbdank71 14:36, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - Single article category. - jc37 17:01, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
With this line of thinking we'd never get new categories, because there would never be a starting point for them. Very likely there are tons of other Wikipedians that would place themselves in this category. Considering this category was made only a few weeks ago, I fail to see how that's any sort of a logical argument. -- Ned Scott 04:11, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- Aaaah, you mean there's only one article for Popping.. I just got that as soon as I hit save. Forgive me, it's the end of the day :) -- Ned Scott 04:12, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- Comment At first I assumed there was only one article for "Popping" as well, but it seems we are all mistaken, according to Template:Popping (dance). -- Ned Scott 04:15, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- Rename to Category:Wikipedian poppers or Category: Wikipedians interested in popping. Seems like a good use of a collaborative category. Ned pointed out that there are multiple articles all linked through the template. —ScouterSig 15:26, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Category:Wikipedia administrators open to trout slapping
- Category:Wikipedia administrators open to trout slapping (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Just like this nom, this category is not helpful to encyclopedia building, category serves no purpose, see similar precedent. --Charitwo talk 00:10, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete/speedy delete as nom. --Charitwo talk 00:10, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Snowball keep, pretty sure we went over this before at Wikipedia:User categories for discussion/Archive/December 2007#Category:Wikipedia administrators open to trout slapping and Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2007 December 20. I see no new arguments since then, and the keep rationale is still valid. Highlights that sum up my own feelings are "Clearly a few administrators are using this, even though it was just introduced. There is therefore some opinion that it is useful, and more might come to consider it so. Community is built by allowing the free activity and interaction of members, not by blocking harmless behavior even if many or even most think it "useless." If something is useful to my neighbor, it's useful even if I have no need of it at all. On the other hand, perhaps I could use a wikitrout myself from time to time. --Abd (talk) 20:39, 14 December 2007 (UTC)" and "Strongest possible keep and endeavor to populate with as many admins as possible. It's great for the project to show that admins are open to good-natured reproof and don't take themselves too seriously. Raymond Arritt (talk) 07:12, 12 December 2007 (UTC)" -- Ned Scott 05:10, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
Upmergeto Category:Wikipedians open to trout slapping. That you are an administrator has nothing to do with your willingness to have others be frank and/or funny with you. Also note that it says "Slapping may only be done by other administrators in this category" which is blatant elitism. (Well, it is a subcat of the general user category, so I suppose I could slap an admin if I needed/wanted to.) —ScouterSig 05:23, 28 April 2008 (UTC)- Delete if consensus to delete parent category. If parent category is not deleted, this should be upmerged. —ScouterSig 17:48, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep or upmerge (whichever) per the same points made in past discussions. I've no problem with deleting harmless UCATs when nobody cares about them, but this is just uncongenial. — xDanielx T/C\R 06:00, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

- Comment Categories are not tagged for deletion.. I'll tag them now. -- Ned Scott 06:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Sadly, I think a long history of consensus from the inclusionists has determined that this category's not going anywhere. Procedural keep.--WaltCip (talk) 11:48, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Slap nominator with a... ehm, sorry, I mean keep. Clearly facilitates collaboration and a harmonious editing environment by showing that not all Wikipedians are averse to constructive criticism sprinkled with a bit of
sea life, um, sorry, humor. Also see Hiding's closing comments from the previous nomination. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 16:38, 28 April 2008 (UTC) - Upmerge per scoutersig, since my first choice of delete is, per Waltcip, not an option. --Kbdank71 16:41, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, as per precedent at Wikipedia:User categories for discussion/Archive/February_2008#Category:Rouge admins, which established that admin-only joke categories are divisive and unhelpful. Additionally, this should be considered as an all-inclusive category, unless one supports the concept of admins who are not open to constructive criticism. This category's sentiments are clearly conveyed through the userbox; there is no use for such a grouping of admins. For those who cite the previous discussions, note that consensus can change. Horologium (talk) 16:59, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Whether humor categories are helpful or not has always been an undecidable debate, since both the proposed benefits and proposed detriments they may have are unmeasurable. What is decisively true, however, is that repeatedly running pages through XfD until you get a favorable outcome is disruptive, a form of gaming the system, and should not be tolerated. --erachima talk 17:06, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Each time this category has been nominated, it has been by a different user, and in this case, the nominator did not participate in the previous two discussions, so it's not a case of abusing the process by constantly renominating it. Additionally, it's been three months since the last time the category was discussed; it's not like it's a weekly event. Horologium (talk) 17:31, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per Wikipedians by lifestyle. Master Redyva (talk) 18:01, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Even administrators need disipline, especially if they broke the encyclopedia, made a really bad April Fools' edit, or disruptively moved a page, and I think you know who I'm talking about. ~AH1(TCU) 20:20, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep Directly useful to the building of an encyclopedia by helping admins encourage others to point out there mistakes. (1 == 2)Until 20:21, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete (1st choice) or Upmerge (2nd choice). The nominator's point that keeping these rediculous categories while deleting the Lazy Wikipedians category is a double standard is well taken. It is a double standard, there is absolutely no use to either category, but just because this one is funny, it's been kept in the past and will be kept again (or perhaps upmerged in a best case expectation). My only real hope out of this nomination is to see this upmerged to the other category, so similar to the Rogue admins category, we can narrow down these crap categories from 2 to 1. Upmerging makes sense, as there is no reason to distiguish admins from the other category. VegaDark (talk) 22:13, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Serious Keep. I think this kind of category helps to establish the personality of the administrator and therefore the appropriate tone for dealing with them. So many rows start with people taking offence at well meant comments and signals to avoid this benefit WP considerably. --BozMo talk 12:13, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

- Delete/speedy delete as nom. --Charitwo talk 00:10, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Snowball keep per similar arguments for the above nom for #Category:Wikipedia administrators open to trout slapping. -- Ned Scott 05:11, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
Week keep per recent precedent and the fact that no new arguments were made. Note that here, almost every other joke category except these trout categories have been deleted. —ScouterSig 05:26, 28 April 2008 (UTC)- Delete because of the precedent to and the need need to [[delete joke categories. Said category does not aid in collaboration, nor even in community building. —ScouterSig 17:46, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, see above. — xDanielx T/C\R 06:01, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment I noted this above, but I'll repeat it here since this uCFD was directly linked to this category, Wikipedia:User categories for discussion/Archive/January 2008#Trout categories. -- Ned Scott 06:44, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, as with the admin category above. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 16:39, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep only if the admins category above is merged into this one. Delete otherwise. --Kbdank71 16:43, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. Unlike its admin-only analogue, this category is not divisive, but it is equally pointless, and there is a long list of precedents for eliminating joke categories (here), and those who wish to express their sentiment can create a userbox instead of a category. There is no possible collaborative purpose for this category (the same can be said for the admin analogue), and is nothing more than a MySpace-y bit of nonsense. Horologium (talk) 17:07, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

- Delete per Wikipedians by lifestyle. Master Redyva (talk) 18:01, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. It prevents us Wikipedians from oversillying ourselves and to stay on task without unintentionally nuking 0.35453545...% of the encyclopedia. ~AH1(TCU) 20:17, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - Zero use to encyclopedia building, it is an absolute shame this will be kept as this is one of the only categories that has ever gone directly against established precedent to delete joke/nonsense categories, simply because enough users come in to say ILIKEIT. VegaDark (talk) 22:13, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- You mean the list page made from a minority of Wikipedians that frequent uCfD? Not that the page is all bad, but the topical index is often abused to show artificial support for certain trends. -- Ned Scott 08:31, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep per ScouterSig--Bedford 08:39, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - Ah, but EVERYBODY deserves a trout slapping, not just the people in this category! That is, not being in this category should not absolve you from being slapped at any given time.--WaltCip (talk) 12:29, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

- Keep I am going to WP:AGF and believe that since this category does not preclude or harm any of the purposes of categories, the author and those who have joined must find it useful. If nothing else it keeps us from being too dry and boring. That alone is useful. Jim Miller (talk) 16:38, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment You may not be aware of this, but this category was created as a rather POINTy response to the first UCFD on the admin-only category (above) which was itself a POINTy creation sparked by a specific discussion. Horologium (talk) 17:04, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- It's a bit frustrating when people don't seem to understand that you can't violate WP:POINT by simply making a point, but only if you disrupt in the process of making that point. Making a point in itself isn't a bad thing. -- Ned Scott 02:09, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you Horologium for pointing me in that direction. I went back and reviewed the prior CfD. As Ned Scott points out above, there is nothing wrong or against policy by making a non-disruptive point. I also went back and reviewed the criteria for deletion - several times. I have not yet seen anything here that meets the criteria for deletion. If we assume good faith, we must believe that ANY category created by an editor serves a useful purpose to at least that editor. It only needs to be useful to those who actually use it anyway. Since I would never ask someone to prove a negative, that leaves us at the point where those who believe we should delete being asked to justify that the mere existance of the category is detrimental to the stated purposes of categories. I have not seen a single justification that the existance of this catagory, or many others (now that I have discovered CfD), impedes the purpose of Wikipedia. "If it doesn't fit, you must acquit."

- Keep This category is helpful in building the community. A sense of humour and a willingness to not take oneself too seriously - the only requirements for membership - are conducive to the mental health of individual members as well as to building a better Wikipedia. Full disclosure: I created a userbox. SHEFFIELDSTEELTALK 02:58, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- How does the category help build community in a way that the userbox does not? Do you really think that people are going to search the category for other people who are open to being beat with a fish? (Yes, I am aware of the origin of the term; I was using mIRC in the 1990's.) Your userbox is a great idea, and I would encourage everyone who is in this category to add it to their userpage. However, it does not need a category to accomplish its purpose. Horologium (talk) 03:06, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well, I myself have browsed the category listing, so (although I am a biased sample) I would answer yes to your question. I think a category page is a much more convenient and better laid out way of searching for users than the "what links here" alternative (which is the only way I know of to search for userbox users). SHEFFIELDSTEELTALK 13:12, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- there is no such thing. --Charitwo talk 22:12, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of Ussri Bobby
Nominator's rationale: Attack category; no evidence has been provided that this editor ever used sockpuppets. Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:52, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- The category was created by Lucy C. V. Robinson (talk · contribs), who appears to be a sockpuppet of Elspeth Monro (talk · contribs). The user's first edit was to add a {{Puppetmaster}} tag to User talk:Ussri Bobby. --Snigbrook (talk) 00:49, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Category:Wikipedians in Baltimore
Category:Cooch Behar Wikipedians
Single user category, needs rename to Category:Wikipedians in Cooch Behar at minimum. Fairly low city population to sustain a category (76k). VegaDark (talk) 16:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete as nom, rename if no consensus to delete. VegaDark (talk) 16:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Rename to Category:Wikipedians in Cooch Behar (1st choice) or Category:Wikipedians in West Bengal (2nd choice). West Bengal is a higher-level administrative division and a category for Wikipedians from West Bengal is much more likely to be populated; the reason it's my second choice is that specificity is generally useful for the "by location" categories. Black Falcon (Talk) 20:59, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Rename per Black Falcon's WikiArguement. Master Redyva (talk) 22:28, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

"These are adult Scouters who have completed the Wood Badge training course from their respective Scout Association and received at least 2 wood beads" - No reason to group these users in a category, see similar precedent. VegaDark (talk) 16:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

- Strong keep Unlike what VegaDark would have us believe, the precedent here is mixed. There is no reason not to allow wikians to selfID as Wood Badgers, as they do with dozens of other self categorizations. — Rlevse • Talk • 17:52, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

- Comment. None the less, the "inconsistent historical list" and the nominator's reasoning have cemented my vote in stone (more than half of the "by award" list were deleted, sound precedent). Thanks. Laen My Verse Ram Nej (Verse) 18:52, April 26, 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per "No reason to group these users in a category." The catergory does not appear useful for encyclopedia. SameDayService (talk) 21:22, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Strong Keep - Members of this category have completed Scouting's highest adult training course and are justifiably proud of their accomplishments. Scouting is a brotherhood, and although inclusion in a user category might to a non-Scouter appear as a small thing cast easily aside, any help in growing and maintaining the ties that bind us together are most welcome and appreciated. Another point: Something as simple as inclusion in a user category might be fuel for the fire to entice these Wikipedians into contributing to, or to make further contributions to, the worldwide Scouting portal. For at least these two reasons, and more yet to be verbalized, I am on the "strong keep" side of the table. Thanks. xpanmanx (talk) 21:26, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment: "proud of their accomplishments"? Is this a catergory or a userpage topic? "bind us together," is this a social networking issue? Please see WP:NOTMYSPACE Laen My Verse Ram Nej (Verse)
- Keep because this is not an award, but a conferred educational recognition. Those people who have completed this level of training have demonstrated a high level of expertise within the program, and that is both useful and appropriate for an encyclopedia. We allow other means of displaying levels of expertise in order to indentify those with an acknowledged strength in a particular area, and this is no different. The precedent cited has no bearing in this case. Jim Miller (talk) 22:53, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- strong keep per educational rationale of User:JimMillerJr. Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 23:09, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment - Just to make it clear. I won't be closing this. Consider this similar to an arbitrator's recusal. Incidentally, I don't expect any of the questions for clarification to be responded to, nor do I expect this to close as anything other than speedy keep (I almost closed it as such myself). There simply are times on Wikipedia in which the POV pushers will "get their way" depite the double standard they're setting. (Incidentally, WP:AGF says to do so only until you encounter evidence to the contrary. And, in the past, I feel I have.) I mean this sincerely: Being an outstanding person of sound mind, and personal accomplishments is a great thing. I support, and honestly admire it. But we're all Wikipedians here. And I don't see any place where this category helps in the building of the encyclopedia. Indeed, I've seen one person make it clear that this is a "self-identifying category". Well, userboxes are enough for that. But please, continue with the POV pushing, to "get your way". After all, You'll have won, what? A feel-good listing of your friends. Congratulations. I hope you enjoy it. - jc37 23:32, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Talk about lack of AGF. What's more harmful and less encyclopedic--userpages with dozens of boxes that make it very difficult to read and use that page or categories that help make it easy to find users with similar interests? Wiki's pendulum has swung way to far to the deletionists. — Rlevse • Talk • 23:44, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep: Per Jim Miller, this categorization may serve to aid the Scouting WikiProject in creating, developing, and improving articles. Wikipedia:User categories are intended "to aid in facilitating coordination and collaboration between users for the improvement and development of the encyclopedia." The page also notes that naming and description restrictions are similar to those for userboxes. Following that line of thought… Restrictions on Userboxes refers to User page guidelines. As such, reviewing user page guidelines:
- Guidance on what is acceptable on user page:
- "Your user page is for anything that is compatible with the Wikipedia project…a way of helping other editors to understand with whom they are working."
- Guidance on what is unacceptable on user page:
- "Excessive personal information (more than a couple of pages) unrelated to Wikipedia." [Bold mine] A simple category, which does aid in collaboration, certainly does not exceed the "excessive" information guideline.
- "Particularly, community-building activities that are not strictly "on topic" may be allowed, especially when initiated by committed Wikipedians with good edit histories. At their best, such activities help us to build the community, and this helps to build the encyclopedia." This category, at worst, falls into this grouping. AGF, this helps establish some information about the level of knowledge an editor may have when editing articles that are related to the Scouting WikiProject.
- — ERcheck (talk) 23:30, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment - Nothing in any of the keep rationales explains how Category:Wikipedians interested in Scouting is not sufficient to cover the supposed benefits of the category. Why would that category not be enough to facilitate collaboration? I also find it fairly odd that so many users have come out of the woodwork who have never been to UCFD before just to vote on this. VegaDark (talk) 23:55, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Another lack of AGF. Maybe they watch the cat like I do or watch edits of someone involved. — Rlevse • Talk • 00:07, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- No lack of AGF, I just find it striking that so many users could discover this so fast with no noticeboard posting that I am aware of.

- Comment - With 65 subcatagories of Wikipedians by degree rather than a single catagory of Wikipedians with college degrees, we seem to place some value on the level of an editors claimed expertise. It would seem that maintaining a similar breakdown to indicate those levels within this area is clearly within both the letter and spirit of WP:USERCAT. I am not making a claim of WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, but merely pointing out that the entire justification for User catagories is to identify an editors knowledge at specific levels in a way meaningful to those who check those catagories. Jim Miller (talk) 00:13, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- A Boy Scouts badge is a far cry from a college degree. VegaDark (talk) 02:37, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- Your dismissive tone says it all. The wood badge is not "a boy scouts badge". It is the name given to the adult leader training award by Scout associations worldwide. It is an adult youth work qualification. Mayalld (talk) 15:25, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'm dismissive because this simply Training - Ongoing . I liken it to categorizing people who are CPR or First Aid certified. According to the article, "Classroom and outdoor training are often combined and taught together, and occur over one or more weeks or weekends." Something that can be obtained in a couple weekends of classes should not be compared to a college degree, which takes years of hard work, and is a standard benchmark in society to determine one's education level. VegaDark (talk) 17:22, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- That is only part of the training. There is generally quite a bit of correspondence study. In Australia it is approved as a Diploma of Leadership under the Australian Qualifications Framework. It is a Technical and Further Education Award. I have the Wood Badge and I am in this category having put the userbox on my user page, but I am still uncertain as to whether the category should be kept or deleted. --Bduke (talk) 00:19, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- @VegaDark: Saying that Woodbadge is something that can be obtained in a couple of week ends is like saying that a degree is something that can be obtaining by just waiting for the dean to call your name, then standing up and taking the diploma from his hands. Of course, there's a lot more before this, be it years of study or years of service to the scout movement and its youth members. While the path to achieving your Wood Badge varies by country, in all cases you are required to have attended previous courses and to evaluate your previous performance as an adult leader. For this reason, it is a "standard benchmark" (to use your words) to compare different training curricula of different scout organization. I hope this clarifies the issue a bit. --Lou Crazy (talk) 16:14, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- I based that off what the article says, if that is incorrect then someone should change it. VegaDark (talk) 22:13, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- The wood badge course itself last for a week. However, before attending the course a participant needs to complete several prerequisites courses. In the Philippines, after completing the prerequisite courses but before attending the wood badge course, participants are required to complete defined critical achievements such as helping 25% of your boy scouts advance to the next rank. Now attending the wood badge course does not automatically grants you the award/recognition. After the course participants must complete their ticket. It is like a self-imposed measurable achievement. Again in the Philippines, participants are given a series of question that they need to write a report on (sort of like a research paper). These questions are designed to test a participant's understanding of the principles of Scouting including the Patrol Method, the concept of Learning by Doing, membership in small groups, etc. Upon submitting the report the participant gets interviewed to drill into the responses to the question. Eventually the participant is given the wood badge and the certificate of completion. Hopefully this gives a better idea of what’s involved. So it is an award to signify that a person is considered “knowledgeable” in the subject matter both in theory and in practice.-Mang Kiko (talk) 19:50, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

- Keep per Jim Miller's excellent comments. This is not simply a subcat of Category:Wikipedians interested in Scouting but a grouping of potential resources, similar to Category:Wikipedians by education or Category:Wikipedians by skill. I believe it is unlike Wikipedians by professional association in that the members of the category are specialized enough to merit a subcat, but not overspecific enough to no longer be collaborative. —ScouterSig 16:27, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- Strong Keep as the Wood Badge course is an advanced adult leader training course, not an award that can be "won" or that is handed out lightly. It is indeed a defining characteristic of many of the people that complete this training and this category serves as a useful way to self-organize editor for a variety Wikipedia-related tasks in the Scouting project. - Dravecky (talk) 00:54, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

- It's always possible people are lying, but we assume good faith on Wikipedia, and we don't require verification for claims like this made in meta space. I'm in Category:Wikipedian audio engineers, but you have no way of knowing that I actually am one, or that I've had years of experience with audio engineering. But if someone were to ask for my help with a related article, not only would I be able to help out, but I have a great amount of references. That is why we keep these kinds of categories. -- Ned Scott 02:27, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Redyva, I think many of the discussions in the "lifestyle" section were deleted because they are poorly defined, not just because it's a description. This Wood Badge category is very much defined. —ScouterSig 18:27, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Just because something is well defined does not mean it needs a category. --Kbdank71 18:44, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

- Who's patting anyone on the head? We keep these kinds of categories for collaboration purposes, not for praise. -- Ned Scott 02:12, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- "Members of this category ... are justifiably proud of their accomplishments. Scouting is a brotherhood, ... any help in growing and maintaining the ties that bind us together are most welcome and appreciated." Sure sounds like a pat on the head to me. If you wanted to collaborate, a better place to say "ask me for help" would be Talk:Wood_Badge. --Kbdank71 14:52, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep: Wood Badge identifies an editor as having a deep knowledge and expertise in the subject matter of Scouting. Saying that you are interested in the subject matter is insufficient. Also, no other categorization that I am aware of serves this purpose. - Mang Kiko (talk) 19:17, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Huh? "Wood Badge identifies an editor as having a deep knowledge and expertise in the subject matter of Scouting." What? I am reading its an "award for adult leaders" and the course is to teach leadership skills. Where is all this "deep knowledge" coming from? "deep knowledge" keeps getting repeated.

- Category:Wikipedians interested in reality television - per the recent discussions: here and here. And it's a single user-cat. - jc37 05:22, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete as nominator. - jc37 05:22, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, the past two discussions mentioned by the nom don't really seem to apply. For one, this is an "interested in" cat, while the other two involved "likes" cats. The other discussions involved individual shows, where some felt it was needless to be that specific, but that really won't be an issue here. -- Ned Scott 07:26, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Currently, the convention for subcats of "Wikipedians by interest in a television series" is to use the "who like" convention. And I might note that they were (at one point) subcats of this cat. As of now, all the subcats of this cat have been individually deleted. Given that prior precedent, I don't foresee this cat being used as a parent category. So this is more a question of should this be depopulated (and thus deleted). - jc37 17:01, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - "interested in reality television" Is too broad to be useful. You can't possibly be interested in collaborating on all reality TV shows, the category gives no direction. No prejudice to creating a "Wikipedians by interest in a reality TV series" category though, as a parent category. VegaDark (talk) 16:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Reality TV has become a type of show, and yes, you can be interested in collaborating on all of them. It's no different than a user interested in, say, anime. -- Ned Scott 05:54, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- You can be interested in all of them, sure, but will you collaborate on all of them? Doubtful. Delete. --Kbdank71 16:48, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- We have Category:Wikipedians by interest in a television series (up for rename, not deletion), and this is no different from that. I'm interested in anime collaboration, that doesn't mean that I'll be able to edit all articles about that topic, but that's not what the category is suggesting. This logic would have us delete almost every single "interested in" user cat that we have. -- Ned Scott 08:45, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Sure it is. And it's all based on the letter "A". "Wikipedians interested in reality television" means "as a whole", also known as "all of it". "Wikipedians by interest in a television series", with the article "A" in it, limits it to one. As in, Interested in ONE television series. Much different than what I was speaking of above. Not to mention that "Wikipedians by interest in a television series" has no users in it, just subcats. --Kbdank71 18:57, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- ... obviously I was talking about the subcats within it. -- Ned Scott 02:21, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- As I note above, the cat has no subcats, and likely will not have subcats. - jc37 17:01, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- As JC notes, there are no subcats. Make my delete strong per single user category, in addition to my reasons above, please. --Kbdank71 16:49, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete and delete "reality" programing if possible. Master Redyva (talk) 22:31, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep per Ned Scott.--Bedford 08:44, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

- Rename all as nominator. - jc37 05:11, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment I'm not entirely sure, but I think it was desired to have it be television over TV, and that some of these categories had been moved before based on that logic. I'll see if I can find anything on it. -- Ned Scott 05:55, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, these genre subcats were all recent creations of Lady Aleena. Originally, all the subcats of the genre cats were merely grouped in a single "interested in television" cat. So I'm not sure what discussion you're referring to, though I'd welcome more information. - jc37 17:01, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment - I support changing to "by interest in a...", but am undecided on changing "television" to "TV". As the nom above already closed with the "TV" convention, I guess we should change the rest to match for standard naming conventions for now, but wouldn't mind further discussion on that portion of the title in the future.
