Nominator's rationale: Merge/delete/rename as indicated. Now that the "FR Yugoslavia" categories have been renamed to "Serbia and Montenegro" categories, there is no longer any reason to have separate subcategories for SFRY people—these can all just be upmerged into the general categories for Yugoslav people. (Most of these SFRY subcategories (with the exception of the footballers) have been quite half-heartedly populated and there has not been a corresponding effort to separate out people from the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, nor should there be—the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and the SFR Yugoslavia were the same country, which we call "Yugoslavia". The Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia went under slightly different names throughout its history, but we don't differentiate in categorization between all of these. It was only Serbia and Montenegro retaining the name "FR Yugoslavia" that caused the confusion in the category system, but now this source of confusion is defunct in the category system. FR Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro) was created in 1992, hence the awkward use of "Pre-1992 Yugoslav footballers".) Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 03:12, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support, per Good Olfactory. Davshul (talk) 05:30, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Sports venues in Las Vegas, Nevada

Propose renaming Category:Sports venues in Las Vegas, Nevada to Category:Sports venues in the Las Vegas metropolitan area

Nominator's rationale: Rename. Most of these are not in the city and the main parent is Category:Sports in the Las Vegas metropolitan area so this is a more consistent name with the other categories. No objection if the category is later recreated if someone feels the need to populate a city only category. Vegaswikian (talk) 22:00, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rename per nom. Inaccuracy is not permitted so we can't tolerate an article to be categorized as in a specific city when it isn't, and nitpicky categorization of such places by municipality/unincorporated area would be too much of a hindrance. The metropolitan area is the more relevant functioning unit here. postdlf (talk) 06:00, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
