August 8

Category:Abandoned cities in the Faroe Islands

Propose renaming Category:Abandoned cities in the Faroe Islands to Category:Abandoned towns and villages in the Faroe Islands or Category:Abandoned villages in the Faroe Islands.

Nominator's rationale: There are no abandoned "cities" in the Faroe Islands. Only villages. Bobbymozza (talk) 22:20, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Category:People by province in Spain - Category:Provinces of Spain

Propose renaming Within Category:People by province in Spain and Category:Provinces of Spain the renames should be like Category:People from Badajoz (province) -> Category:People from Badajoz Province and Category:Badajoz province -> Category:Badajoz Province.

Nominator's rationale: Unify "X (province)" and "X province" under the most widely used format namely "X Province" compare also Category:People by first-level administrative country subdivision Argentina, Algeria, Bulgaia, Cuba, Ecuador Iran.... all use X Province.

Category:Provinces

Propose renaming Category:Provinces to Category:Provinces by country

Nominator's rationale: Like "Districts by country" and "Municipalities by country". Still: Category:Provinces could stay and contain the not-per country content. Schwyz (talk) 13:54, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Category:Australian Schoolboy players

Category:Australian Schoolboy players - Template:Lc1

Category:Australian Schoolboy rugby union players - Template:Lc1

Nominator's rationale: Delete. Playing for a national schoolboy side is not a defining characteristic, everyone here has achieved notability by playing at the professional level of the game, per WP:ATHLETE. Tassedethe (talk) 10:51, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject Bleach categories

Category:WikiProject Bleach participants - Template:Lc1

Category:WikiProject Bleach - Template:Lc1

Nominator's rationale: Delete. This is a defunct project and has been tagged for several months, so these categories should be deleted. Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 04:14, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

• Rename Category:WikiProject Bleach participants to Category:Bleach work group participants and Category:WikiProject Bleach to Category:Bleach work group. The Bleach WP was absorbed as a work group of WP:ANIME some time ago. While the work group may be currently inactive, that is not a good reason to delete these two categories or any other category related to BWG because the work group may become active again in the future. —Farix (t | c) 18:05, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Oh, I see now, TheFarix. I will keep that in mind. So, rather than delete these categories outright for the wrong reasons as what I originally intended, I withdraw my deletion vote and change it to a Rename. Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 20:15, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

• • Comment it should still say wikiproject or wikipedia to separate it from encyclopedic categorizations, if it isn't deleted. 76.66.193.119 (talk) 23:35, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Category:Big Boy

Propose renaming Category:Big Boy to Category:Big Boy (restaurant)

Nominator's rationale: For clarification, and to match parent article Big Boy (restaurant). Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 02:25, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

• Support Rename to match title of parent article. Alansohn (talk) 22:58, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
