NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:Computers

Propose merging Category:Computers to Category:Computing
Nominator's rationale: Merge. Subcategories are placed under one or the other with no discernible pattern. Categories' scope substantially overlap. Main article of parent cat is more specific than main article of subcat. Pnm (talk) 04:54, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Leaders of the Communist Party of Canada (Ontario)/Labour-Progressive Party

Propose renaming Category:Leaders of the Communist Party of Canada (Ontario)/Labour-Progressive Party to Category:Leaders of the Communist Party of Canada (Ontario)
Nominator's rationale: Rename. When an organisation has used more than one name in its history, the general practice with categories is to use the current, most recent, or most common name. In other words, use the name that is used in the corresponding article. For this party, that is Communist Party of Canada (Ontario). The parent category is Category:Communist Party of Canada (Ontario) politicians. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:32, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Maddox

Propose renaming Category:Maddox to Category:Maddox (writer)
Nominator's rationale: Rename or delete. Not sure this needs to exist, but if it is kept it needs to be renamed to match the article Maddox (writer) since Maddox is ambiguous. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:02, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
