WP:CFDS

Categories may be listed for speedy renaming or speedy merging if they meet one or more of the criteria specified below. They must be tagged with {{subst:cfr-speedy|New name}} so that users of the categories are aware of the proposal. A request may be processed 48 hours after it was listed if there are no objections. This delay allows other editors to review the request to ensure that it meets the 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", categories that have been empty for seven days) can be tagged with the regular speedy tags, such as {{db|reason}}, and no delay is required to process these. Renaming under C2E can also be processed instantly as it is a variation on G7.

Contested requests become stale, and can be un-tagged and de-listed, 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 continue the process, they need to submit the request as a regular CfD in accordance with the instructions there.

Speedy criteria

The category-specific criteria for speedy renaming, or merging are strictly limited to:

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 as 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 ~~~~

This will sign and datestamp an entry automatically.

Remember to tag the category 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 10:28, 19 May 2024 (UTC). Currently, there are 82 open requests (refresh).

Category:Woodrow Wilson administration cabinet members to Category:Wilson administration cabinet members – C2C: first name only used if needed for disambiguation. HandsomeFella (talk) 12:03, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Category:Woodrow Wilson administration personnel to Category:Wilson administration personnel
Category:George W. Bush Administration cabinet members to Category:George W. Bush administration cabinet members – C2A/C2C: most categories here use lower-case "administration". Please note that some categories have a soft redirect that must be deleted first. HandsomeFella (talk) 12:00, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm not so sure Xyz Administration isn't the correct proper noun. Compare 57th United States Congress (not 57th United States congress), Warren Court (not Warren court) as examples from the two other branches of U.S. government. Brianhe (talk) 06:10, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Could be, but that would mean renaming the other categories instead. HandsomeFella (talk) 11:43, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- Category:Moscovian life to Category:Moscovian (Carboniferous) life
  - Moscovian life should be fine as it is. Abyssal (talk) 18:01, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Abyssal: please clarify, are you formally opposing the two Moscovian renaming proposals, and only those? – Fayenatic London 22:55, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      - @Fayenatic london:Especially the Moscovian ones, but to be honest, I would prefer the Pennsylvanian and Mississippian ones remain as well. Abyssal (talk) 02:08, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        Following discussion with Abyssal on my talk page, I am treating all six as opposed. A full discussion is needed now that Abyssal has manually replaced e.g. Category:Oxfordian geologic formations with Category:Oxfordian Stage. – Fayenatic London 09:50, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

On hold pending other discussion

Category:Nature Research academic journals to Category:Nature Publishing Group academic journals – C2B: Revert incorrect move: Company name is still "Nature Publishing Group" (see http://www.nature.com/npg_/company_info/index.html) Randykitty (talk) 09:18, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose Article Nature Research was recently moved without discussion, but that's the current name of the company (as hinted at by the title of the above website page "About Nature Research"; they just haven't updated some of the content of the website since the Springer takeover. If you look at recent press releases you will see they are firmly using "Nature Research" as their corporate identity as a subsidiary of the holding company Springer Nature; any reference to Macmillan is out of date.Le Deluge (talk) 05:55, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Support, the company is the Nature Publishing Group [1], and consistently uses that branding everywhere. Nature Research is a subdivision. If you want to change that, have a requested move and gain consensus for the name change.Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 06:00, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The category and article were moved unilaterally without any discussion to "Nature Research". I challenge that move and request that the original situation be restored. A move like this should not be done without discussion (which has now started at Talk:Nature Publishing Group. --Randykitty (talk) 09:54, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment That discussion seems to have died down, but it is clear that there was no consensus for the previous more to "Nature Research", so the original situation should be restored. --Randykitty (talk) 14:45, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Sincik District to Category:Sincik – C2D per Sincik Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 09:36, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
On hold See: Talk:Sincik#Requested move 3 November 2016. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 23:26, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Chakri Dynasty to Category:Chakri dynasty – C2B and C2C, virtually all other dynasty categories use a lower case d. Celia Homeford (talk) 09:20, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Not speedy candidate, conflicts with C2D. Move discussion pending on main article. --Paul_012 (talk) 10:34, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - Discussion is at Talk:Chakri_Dynasty#Requested_move_2_November_2016. – Fayenatic London 10:20, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Moved to full discussion

Category:Environmental management to Category:Sustainability and environmental management – C2D per Sustainability and environmental management. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:20, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Environmental management redirects to Environmental resource management. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 15:37, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article isn't even in the category.... Marcocapelle (talk) 22:29, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Moved to full discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:13, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Christian concepts related to personal development to Category:Abundant life – C2D: per Abundant life. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:50, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, this does not appear to match the scope of the category. "Spiritual formation" is a fashionable term which might be closer, but still not a match. – Fayenatic London 12:33, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Moved to full discussion, here. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:25, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Apostolic Nuncios to Naples to Category:Apostolic Nuncios to the Kingdom of Naples – C2C per Category:Ambassadors to the Kingdom of Naples Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 03:51, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"Nuncios" should be decapitalized, also per Category:Apostolic nuncios. Brandmeister^talk 08:22, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Brandmeister: But cf the format of all of the subcategories! Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 21:46, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I Oppose. Please note that the best source on this issue, the Biaudet (Les nonciatures apostoliques permanentes jusqu'en 1648 [2]), always refers to it as "Naples" and never as "Kindgom of Naples". Actually at the time the system of nunciatures did not follow the formal nations, but the system of courts (in this case the court of the vice-king of Naples), being the King of Naples already served by the nunciature in Madrid. The same for Category:Apostolic Nuncios to Venice which is the correct name also according to the Biaudet (not "To Republic of Venice", which would be wrong) A ntv (talk) 10:00, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This might be one situation where a descriptive title would be more helpful than the actual title that was used. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 21:46, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Since discussion here kind of died, moved to full. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 04:14, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:EVV players to Category:EVV (football club) players – article is EVV (football club) Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 23:03, 14 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - as unneccessary, no other EVV has players to confuse with. Merits full CFD discussion. Giant Snowman 08:09, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Moved to full discussion. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 22:51, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ready for deletion

Check Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion for out of process deletions. In some cases, these will need to be nominated for discussion and the editor who emptied the category informed that they should follow the WP:CFD process.

Once the renaming has been completed, copy and paste the listing to the Ready for deletion section of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Working/Manual.
