Category:Tor Hidden Services[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: do not delete. It can be renominated immediately for a renaming proposal. Good Ol’factory (talk) 01:12, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Do we need to categorize websites by the site they are hosted on? If kept it should be renamed, something like Category:Tor-hosted websites. Tassedethe (talk) 20:12, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
keep this is not about being hosted on Tor, it is about using the TOR protocol to host a website, making it (somewhat) anonymous. This distinguishes these websites from all other websites, so I think it is defining, and the current name is fine. There's a reason silkroad is on here - that site deals in illegal drugs, so if it was on the web, the police could easily find it - since it's a TOR hidden service, it can't be found. But TOR isn't hosting anything, technically speaking, and even TOR doesn't know where silkRoad is or who is running it. --Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 04:02, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - as above.--Seerus (talk) 11:14, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
if there were notable gopher sites, a category would make sense IMHO for them too. But TOR especially is not about protocols it's about anonymity, so people choose to create TOR sites often when they're doing something they don't want others to find, like Silk Road or various political activist websites.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 12:53, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Songs performed by Foo[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: merge. There are over 5,000 categories in the "(artist) songs" format, and we're not going to change that by nominating two categories. This needs a much higher-level discussion if change is desired.--Mike Selinker (talk) 00:51, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Merge.

All the songs have recently been moved from the more established Category:James Taylor songs and Category:Carole King songs to the nominated categories. There are two problems here with the new category names, one is that the title is a little too encompassing, it includes a snatch of song whistled while walking down Broadway and a solitary performance on a wet Wednesday in Waco. Secondly, the XXX songs category tree is well-established with over 5,000 members. I am sympathetic to the creator, insomuch that "XXX songs" is not the best category title, but this suggestion is not an improvement. Richhoncho (talk) 06:49, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment (response to Starcheer..) I don't know, Fever (Little Willie John song) is categorized as Category:Rita Coolidge songs, Category:Beyoncé Knowles songs, Category:Amanda Lear songs, Category:Peggy Lee songs, Category:Bette Midler songs, Category:Madonna (entertainer) songs, Category:Elvis Presley songs. The real problem is that "XXX songs" implies ownership rather than performance of the song. Not even Little Willie John *owns* the song!--Richhoncho (talk) 11:33, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
When I think of "Marvin Gaye songs", I would expect to see "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" among them. If someone asked me my favorite Madonna song, I might say "Crazy for You". Neither of which was written by said artist, but to me seem appropriately categorized. I don't see how it implies ownership. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 17:00, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Norwegian-Canadian culture[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: keep. It's a compound adjective; see WP:HYPHEN. – Fayenatic London 22:16, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: the hyphenated form is not seen in the main article Norwegian Canadian or in other categories relating to same or of the same kind re "FOO Canadians".Skookum1 (talk) 04:14, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Reichstag (legislative body)[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: No consensus. Is there any reason why Category:Reichstag can not become a regular category with Category:Reichstag (legislative body) and Category:Reichstag building‎ as the only members? That should not require a new CfD discussion. Vegaswikian (talk) 21:13, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category:Reichstag is not in use because it is apparently ambiguous. However the two categories which were needing disambiguation are Category:Reichstag (legislative body) and Category:Reichstag (building); since August 2011 the latter has been a subcategory of the former, which also contains four articles legislatures that have been called Reichstag and a members category. Could we not have a scenario where Category:Reichstag is used instead containing Category:Reichstag (building) together with the members category and the four articles as well as the dab page at Reichstag? Green Giant (talk) 02:18, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Category:To My Surprise[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete. – Fayenatic London 13:00, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Previously nominated on 26 November 2010, I believe the same rationale then still applies. One album article and navigation amongst the contents is easy enough to not require eponymous categorization. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 01:12, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Nice Girl Project![edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: Delete. Since both articles are in Category:Japanese singers, they appear to be in the correct tree. I did not see a better place to 'relocate' these, but if there is one, feel free to add it. Vegaswikian (talk) 17:05, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. No article for the group, which is what I assume this is. No mention of "Nice Girl Project!" in either of the articles categorized here. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 01:02, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. If we don't know what it is about, why would we need the category? --Richhoncho (talk) 08:27, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Another Suggestion. Relocate the two articles into a broader category. It's kinda strange that you brought this up, chap. Do what you can. Maybe I can remake it in the future. Komitsuki (talk) 15:01, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Category:McClain Sisters[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: Delete. Vegaswikian (talk) 17:07, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Only 3 songs (2 of which are redirects), already categorized in Category:McClain Sisters songs, and the topic article. Doesn't offer additional aid in navigation. WP:OC#Eponymous. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 00:56, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete. Vegaswikian (talk) 17:08, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Overcategorization. Only 3 articles each easily linkable to and from one another. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 00:43, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Category:FC Kahuna[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: Delete. Vegaswikian (talk) 17:09, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Unneeded parent category to Category:FC Kahuna albums with 1 album in it. Only other thing that could possibly go here is the main article. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 00:35, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
