Category name[edit]

@Marcocapelle: this category contains two novels from the 2000s, and perhaps it should have been left at the old name Category:Novels set in the Palestinian territories; what do you think? – Fayenatic London 11:01, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Fayenatic london: Yes you are right. How did you find out? Marcocapelle (talk) 04:57, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I was checking backlinks to the old category pages before deleting them. This one is a successor to Novels set in Mandatory Palestine, and there is a historical gap between the Mandate and the State of Palestine, so I looked at the articles to check where they belonged. – Fayenatic London 07:03, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Fayenatic london: That explains it! I suppose in this case it is okay if you skip renaming the category without setting up a new discussion, per WP:BURO. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:26, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I thought so too. I simply struck out this entry on the CFD log page, referring to the subsequent consensus here. – Fayenatic London 23:55, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
