February 2021

[edit]
  1. Category:Slavic tradition: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Slavic traditions 12:38, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
  2. Category:Ukrainian traditional culture: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Ukrainian folk culture 12:40, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
  3. Category:Russian folk games: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Russian games 13:08, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

March 2021

[edit]
  1. Category:Norwegian traditional folk musicians: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Norwegian traditional musicians 08:32, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Traditional music and traditional folk music are considered the same.
  2. Category:Polynesian folk clothing: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Polynesian clothing 06:34, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
  3. Category:Tamil folks singers: nominated at RfD; Target: Category:Tamil folk singers (notified); notified Arunram (talk · contribs) 09:06, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Implausible typo, not useful as a soft redirect, no meaningful page history.
  4. Category:Italian Folk Music: nominated at RfD; Target: Category:Italian folk music (notified); notified Rich Farmbrough (talk · contribs) 08:42, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Not useful as a soft redirect, no meaningful page history. We don't need soft redirects with different capitalisation for every category, unless there's a reason it might be capitalised that way.
  5. Category:Folk art museums in Greece: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Folk art museums and galleries in Greece 13:44, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
  6. Category:Characters of the Slavic Cabinet Mythology: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Лобачев Владимир (talk · contribs) 12:19, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: I can't decipher the name of this category or the connection between the articles in it other than them being from Slavic folklore. There is nothing on Wikipedia about "Slavic Cabinet Mythology". A Google search only brings up results from this category on Wikipedia or mirrors. The contents are already in other appropriate Slavic folklore categories so no upmerging is necessary.
  7. Category:Religious Rituals: nominated at RfD; Target: Category:Religious rituals (notified); notified Ad Orientem (talk · contribs) 23:20, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Delete – Unnecessary soft redirect, no meaningful page history. No redirect should have been created when the category was renamed. There would be a ridiculous amount of soft redirects if we had one with different capitalisation for every category.

July 2021

[edit]
  1. Category:Sony/ATV Music Publishing: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Sony Music Publishing 04:33, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Company was renamed this year.
  2. Category:Music published by Sony/ATV Music Publishing: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Music published by Sony Music Publishing 04:33, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
  3. Category:Sony/ATV Music Publishing artists: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Sony Music Publishing artists 04:34, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
  4. Talk:Asp (reptile): nominated at RM; New name: Asp (snake) 14:43, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Clearer and more specific. Asp only refers to specifically snakes, no other reptiles. It's currently confusing that Asp (snake) redirects to a disambiguation page instead of this one. This is an article that discusses the meaning of asp in relation to snakes and can cover the snake entries on that disambiguation page.

August 2021

[edit]
  1. Category:Phoenician characters in Greco-Roman mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Phoenician characters in classical mythology 13:55, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
  2. Category:Textiles in mythology and folklore: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Textiles in folklore 14:20, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Article was moved last year.
  3. Category:Religious architecture: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Sacral architecture 14:28, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Article was moved in 2007.
  4. Category:Popular culture about unicorns: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Unicorns in popular culture; notified Stenvenhe (talk · contribs) 03:26, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: This category was renamed in a batch as a result of this discussion in 2018. It was one of only two categories in the batch that contained "popular culture", and many other popular culture categories were not included. Its inclusion seems like a mistake, and the new name is awkward and possibly nonsensical. The old name was better and matched the other categories Category:Legendary creatures in popular culture.
  5. Category:Popular culture about the United States Marine Corps: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:United States Marine Corps in popular culture; notified ERcheck (talk · contribs) 03:29, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: This category was renamed in a batch as a result of this discussion in 2018. It was one of only two categories in the batch that contained "popular culture", and many other popular culture categories were not included. Its inclusion seems like a mistake, and the new name is awkward and possibly nonsensical. No redirect should be left if it's moved back.
  6. Category:Eschatology in norse mythology: nominated at RfD; Target: Category:Eschatology in Norse mythology (notified); notified Bloodofox (talk · contribs) 14:32, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Delete – Unneeded soft redirect resulting from a typo. Should have been deleted when moved as they usually are.

September 2021

[edit]
  1. Category:Greco-Roman mythology in popular culture: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Classical mythology in popular culture 13:41, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
  2. Greco roman rugby: nominated at RfD; Target: Rugby league (notified); notified Wyth (talk · contribs) 10:25, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Delete – I can't find any real references to this term online. It's not mentioned in the article. There are no redirects from similar terms, such as from the correct spelling. MClay1 (talk) 10:25, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
  3. Greco-Roman Rugby: nominated at RfD; Target: Rugby league (notified); notified Wyth (talk · contribs) 10:28, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
  4. Category:Folklore museums in Greece: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Folk museums in Greece 01:16, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  5. Category:Folklore museums in Macedonia (Greece): nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Folk museums in Macedonia (Greece) 01:16, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  6. Category:Folklore museums in Central Macedonia: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Folk museums in Central Macedonia 01:17, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  7. Category:Folklore museums in Eastern Macedonia and Thrace: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Folk museums in Eastern Macedonia and Thrace 01:17, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  8. Category:Folklore museums in Western Macedonia: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Folk museums in Western Macedonia 01:18, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  9. Category:Lists of art museums: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Lists of art museums and galleries 01:21, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  10. Category:Defunct art galleries in Hong Kong: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Defunct art museums and galleries in Hong Kong 01:24, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  11. Category:Africa in Greco-Roman mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Africa in classical mythology 01:49, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  12. Category:Encyclopedias in Classical Antiquity: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Encyclopedias in classical antiquity 03:24, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  13. Category:Condemned souls into Tartarus: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Condemned souls in Tartarus 03:42, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Grammar. The category is for people in Tartarus.
  14. Category:Songs about Hell: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Songs about hell 03:51, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: also C2C.
  15. Category:Video games set in Hell: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Video games set in hell 03:52, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: also C2C.
  16. Category:Hades (underworld) in popular culture: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Greek underworld in popular culture 03:55, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  17. Category:Hades (underworld) in Greco-Roman literature: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Underworld in classical literature 04:29, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  18. Category:Classical studies: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Classics 06:13, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  19. Category:Modern influence of Norse mythology: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Holt (talk · contribs) 06:50, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Just an unnecessary container for three subcategories of Category:Norse mythology. Basically no opportunity for expansion. There are no other parent cats nor does it fit within an established category tree. Upmerge contents.
  20. Category:History of Greek Antiquity by period: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Ancient Greece by period; notified Catalographer (talk · contribs) 07:49, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  21. Category:Greek Antiquity in art and culture: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Ancient Greece in art and culture 08:03, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
  22. Category:Greco-Roman mythology in art: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Classical mythology in art 09:45, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  23. Category:Greco-Roman mythology in comics: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Classical mythology in comics 09:46, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  24. Category:Greco-Roman mythology in music: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Classical mythology in music 09:47, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  25. Category:Sculptures of Greco-Roman mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Sculptures of classical mythology 09:48, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  26. Category:Operas based on Greco-Roman mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Operas based on classical mythology 09:49, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  27. Category:Greco-Roman mythology in anime and manga: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Classical mythology in anime and manga 09:52, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  28. Category:Greco-Roman mythology in DC Comics: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Classical mythology in DC Comics 09:53, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  29. Category:Greco-Roman mythology in Marvel Comics: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Classical mythology in Marvel Comics 09:53, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  30. Category:Films based on Greco-Roman mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Films based on classical mythology 09:54, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  31. Category:Animated films based on Greco-Roman mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Animated films based on classical mythology 09:54, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  32. Category:Television series based on Greco-Roman mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Television series based on classical mythology 09:58, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  33. Category:Video games based on Greek mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Video games based on classical mythology 09:59, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
  34. Category:Pop culture language: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Popular culture language 08:06, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
  35. Category:Pop-culture neologisms: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Popular culture neologisms 08:08, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
  36. Category:Camp Half-Blood series: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Camp Half-Blood Chronicles 10:24, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
  37. Category:Camp Half-Blood characters: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Camp Half-Blood Chronicles characters 10:27, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
  38. Category:Amazons (Greek mythology): nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Amazons; notified Pb30 (talk · contribs) 12:32, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: I can't see any compelling need for disambiguation. The article is at Amazons. There are no other uses for "Amazons" other than the comics characters named after the original Amazons, and those categories are subcats of this one. It's unambiguously the primary topic with no room for confusion with the rainforest.
  39. Category:Sculptures of Neptune: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Sculptures of Poseidon and Neptune; notified Randy Kryn (talk · contribs) 13:12, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: In artistic representation, many of the Greek and Roman gods are interchangeable. There are articles on statues of Poseidon that could fit into this category. The category needs to be renamed anyway to disambiguate from the planet. Adding in Poseidon avoids the need for brackets.
  40. Category:Novels set in Ancient Troy: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Novels set in ancient Troy 04:16, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
  41. Category:Seven Against Thebes: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Seven against Thebes 15:07, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
  42. Category:Television programs based on actual events: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Television shows based on actual events 14:26, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
  43. Category:Works based on Greek and Roman plays: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Works based on ancient Greek and Roman plays 14:34, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: not intended to contain modern Greek material.
  44. Category:Plays based on Greek and Roman plays: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Plays based on ancient Greek and Roman plays 14:35, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: not intended to contain modern Greek material.
  45. Category:Alternate versions of films: nominated at CfDS (C2B); New name: Category:Alternative versions of films 09:31, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
  46. Category:Video games with alternate versions: nominated at CfDS (C2B); New name: Category:Video games with alternative versions 09:33, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
  47. Category:Alternate soundtracks: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Alternative versions of soundtracks 11:32, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  48. Category:Roman philosophy: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Ancient Roman philosophy 13:01, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  49. Category:Roman philosophy studies: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Ancient Roman philosophy studies 13:02, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  50. Category:Scholars of Roman philosophy: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Scholars of ancient Roman philosophy 13:02, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  51. Category:Roman philosophers: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Ancient Roman philosophers 13:03, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  52. Category:Roman philosophical literature: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Ancient Roman philosophical literature 13:05, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  53. Category:Greek and Roman dancers: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Ancient Roman dancers 13:19, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: No reason to lump the nationalities together. All people in the category are Roman anyway. We can create a separate category for ancient Greeks if needed.
  54. Category:Greek and Roman sculptures in the British Museum: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Ancient Greek and Roman sculptures in the British Museum 13:25, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  55. Category:Greek and Roman objects in the British Museum: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Ancient Greek and Roman objects in the British Museum 13:26, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  56. Category:Works based on Greek and Roman works: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Works based on classical literature 13:35, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Only intended to cover literature not other works such as artworks.
  57. Category:Plays based on Greek and Roman works: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Plays based on classical literature 13:36, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Only intended to cover literature not other works such as artworks.
  58. Category:Greek mythological epic poets: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Mythological Greek epic poets 14:15, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  59. Category:Arabic punctuations and symbols: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Arabic punctuation and symbols 23:39, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
  60. Category:Mythic aquatic creatures: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Mythological aquatic creatures 06:28, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
  61. Category:Dwarves (mythology): nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Dwarves (folklore) 13:27, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
  62. Category:Works based upon Japanese myths and legends: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Works based on Japanese myths and legends 14:24, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
  63. Category:Works based upon Korean myths and legends: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Works based on Korean myths and legends 14:25, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

[edit]
  1. The Cannon Film Company: nominated at AfD; notified RichardAlbiston89 (talk · contribs) 13:30, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Non-notable company. Article created by the owner.

September 2022

[edit]
  1. Jonathan Lipow: nominated at RfD; Target: List of Monster High characters (notified); notified OneSiderOneTrack (talk · contribs) 08:02, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Confusing redirect that appears to be from a voice actor to an article listing one fictional character he has voiced. He's not mentioned in the article and I don't know of any reason why he should be associated with that character more than any of his other work. Unless anyone can think of a better target, seems like it should be deleted.

[edit]
  1. Category:George Thorogood & The Destroyers albums: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:George Thorogood and the Destroyers albums 06:16, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
  2. Category:George Thorogood & The Destroyers live albums: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:George Thorogood and the Destroyers live albums 06:16, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

January 2023

[edit]
  1. Category:Nigeria mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Nigerian mythology 06:46, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
  2. Category:Works set in Ancient China: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Works set in ancient China 12:12, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
  3. Category:Films set in Ancient China: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Films set in ancient China 12:12, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
  4. Category:Novels set in Ancient China: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Novels set in ancient China 12:13, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
  5. Category:Television series set in Ancient China: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Television series set in ancient China 12:13, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
  6. Category:Video games set in Ancient China: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Video games set in ancient China 12:14, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
  7. Category:Films based on the Jason-Medea myth: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified SoSivr (talk · contribs) 14:18, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: "The Jason-Medea myth" is an unclear descriptor and doesn't appear to be in common usage even in scholarly sources. After restructuring the categories, all but one of the films focusing Jason and Medea are in the subcat Category:Films based on Medea (Euripides play)‎. Everything can be upmerged.
  8. Category:Operas based on the Jason-Medea myth: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Operas based on Medea (Euripides play); notified SoSivr (talk · contribs) 14:22, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

February 2023

[edit]
  1. Category:Works set in the Crimea: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Works set in Crimea 06:45, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: See all other categories about Crimea.
  2. Category:Family tree in Greek mythology: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Markx121993 (talk · contribs) 09:44, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: Unnecessary category with only one article. If we ever get any more Greek mythology family trees, we can create a new category. The name of this one doesn't seem grammatically correct.
  3. Template:Fag: nominated at RfD; Target: Template:Find a Grave (notified); notified Gamaliel (talk · contribs) 10:01, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: Delete – Unneeded and only had a few transclusions, which I replaced. Obviously, it's intended as an initialism for Find a Grave; however, the resulting word is unfortunate and best avoided. At least the redirect Template:FAG is a little more obvious that it's an abbreviation.

March 2023

[edit]
  1. Category:Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir 15:05, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
  2. Template:Auto compact TOC: nominated at TfD (merge); Other template: Template:Compact TOC; notified Erutuon (talk · contribs) 09:48, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: Should we implement the idea of this little-used template into the standard Compact TOC? {{Compact TOC}} currently allows for the omission of letters by requiring each letter to be removed individually with parameters, which will inevitably lead to a TOC in an article becoming outdated as the article is altered but the template is not. Automatically omitting unused letters could make navigation clearer, while still allowing for alterations and overide through {{Compact TOC}}'s other functions.
  3. Template:Mainw: nominated at RfD; Target: Template:Cat main (notified); notified Zoupan (talk · contribs) 13:00, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: Delete – Ambiguous and confusing. Could easily be confused with {{Main}} and I replaced an instance of it being used that way in an article. Not sure what the w is supposed to mean.
  4. Template:Dabpage: nominated at RfD; Target: Template:Hatnote (notified) 12:53, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: Delete – Ambiguous unused redirect. Could easily be confused for {{Disambiguation}}, the template for dab pages. It was created as an alternative name for {{dablink}}, the former name of {{Hatnote}}, but the name is no longer useful.
  5. Template:Infobox Small, Medium, or Large Lump of Rock, Gas, or Ice, possibly Spherical, that May (or May Not) be a Planet: nominated at RfD; Target: Template:Infobox planet (notified); notified Mike Peel (talk · contribs) 05:25, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: Delete implausible redirect. Clearly an in-joke but the page doesn't actually need to exist.
  6. Category:Letter-number combination disambiguation pages: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Letter–number combination disambiguation pages 11:16, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: per MOS:DASH. Populating template was renamed.
  7. Template:Infobox comic: nominated at TfD (merge); Other template: Template:Infobox comic book title; notified Skizzik (talk · contribs) 13:10, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

November 2023

[edit]
  1. Talk:Tartarian Empire (conspiracy theory): nominated at RM; New name: Tartarian Empire 01:44, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: Tartarian Empire existed as a redirect to Tartary before this article was created. This article should really have replaced the redirect rather than creating a new page. The disambiguation is unnecessary.

July 2024

[edit]
  1. Category:Greek mythological characters by location: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Characters in Greek mythology by location; notified Markx121993 (talk · contribs) 01:04, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: User:Markx121993 appears to have tried to manually rename the category (that he created three years ago) by creating the new name and then manually moving all the contents. The old category then got nominated for speedy deletion for being empty, which I stopped by turning it into a redirect. I propose deleting the target and then doing a proper move so as not to lose the old category's page history.
  2. Category:Mythology of Perseus: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Perseus; notified Markx121993 (talk · contribs) 01:34, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
  3. Category:Heroes in Hindu myths and legend: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Heroes in Hindu mythology 06:05, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
  4. Category:Phoenicia in Ancient Egyptian mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Phoenicia in Egyptian mythology 06:14, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
  5. Category:Bogs, fens and marshes in mythology: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Wetlands in folklore; notified Bloodofox (talk · contribs) 06:33, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: More encompassing and simpler name. Bogs, fens and marshes are apparently three of the four main types of wetlands, with swamps being the other, and I can't see why that should be excluded. Mythology is a subcategory of folklore. This is currently a small category, but I can see it being expanded, as wetlands are often the subject of folklore.
  6. Category:Danaids: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Danaïdes 07:05, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
  7. Category:Dionysus in mythology: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Mythology of Dionysus; notified Catalographer (talk · contribs) 08:09, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Dionysus is a mythological character and so most of the content related to him is related to mythology, but I can understand the point of diffusing all the miscellaneous articles relating to his mythology. The "X in mythology" category name is better used for depictions of real things and concepts in mythology, such as Category:Animals in mythology. The proposed name is based on Category:Mythology of Heracles.
  8. Antiope (Greek myth): nominated at RM; New name: Antiope (mythology) 10:20, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Better, simpler disambiguation. There no articles about an Antiope from a different mythology.
  9. Category:Furies/Erinyes: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Erinyes 10:44, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
  10. Category:Phrases and idioms derived from Greek mythology: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Words and phrases derived from Greek mythology 00:47, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
  11. Merope (Greek myth): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Merope (mythology) 06:30, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Standard disambiguation for Greek mythology index pages. Unnecessary to specify "Greek" in the name.
  12. Phoebe (Greek myth): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Phoebe (mythology) 06:30, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Standard disambiguation for Greek mythology index pages. Unnecessary to specify "Greek" in the name.
  13. Actaea (Greek myth): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Actaea (mythology) 13:45, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Standard disambiguation for Greek mythology index articles. Needs a WP:ROUNDROBIN move to keep both pages' history due to cut-and-paste moves.
  14. Category:1954 establishments in East Pakistan: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:1954 establishments in East Bengal 08:09, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
  15. Category:Hamadryad: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Dryads; notified Markx121993 (talk · contribs) 09:56, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Upmerge. There aren't many dryads with articles to make it worthwhile to subcategorise them into what specific type of dryad they are. This category doesn't intersect with any others so it doesn't aid navigation to have it as an additional layer. (If kept, it should be renamed Category:Hamadryads.)
  16. Category:Labyrinths: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Dimadick (talk · contribs) 12:12, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This is a combination of articles related to the Labyrinth from Greek mythology and a collection of other unrelated things that use the word labyrinth or look like a labyrinth. There is no meaningful distinction between a maze and a labyrinth to need to categorise those mazes separately, and there doesn't appear to be enough articles related to the original Labyrinth that it needs its own article. The Greek mythology articles are already connected through other Greek mythology categories. Anything inspired by the Labyrinth can go in a category such as Category:Classical mythology in popular culture.

  1. Category:Martial arts (genre) games: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Martial arts games 11:34, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
  2. Category:Cave weta: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Cave wētā 15:55, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
  3. Category:Somalia War (2006–2009): nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:War in Somalia (2006–2009) 11:08, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
  4. Category:Battles of the Somalia War (2006–2009): nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Battles of the War in Somalia (2006–2009) 11:09, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
  5. Category:Somalia War (2006–2009) by year: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:War in Somalia (2006–2009) by year 11:10, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
  6. Category:Family of Aaron: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Family of Moses; notified Marcocapelle (talk · contribs) 13:28, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: There's a huge overlap between these categories. Since Aaron and Moses were brothers, they have the same family. Moses is the more prominent member so it makes sense for the category to be named after him.
  7. Category:Family of Calyce: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Family of Calyce (mythology) 14:08, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
  8. Category:Family of Majoor Oei Tiong Ham: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Family of Oei Tiong Ham 14:14, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
  9. Category:Titles of Mary: nominated at CfDS (C2B); New name: Category:Titles of Mary, mother of Jesus 00:56, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
  10. Category:First Nations by province or territory: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:First Nations in Canada by province or territory 09:19, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  11. Category:First Nations education: nominated at CfDS (C2B); New name: Category:First Nations education in Canada 09:21, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  12. Category:First Nations geography: nominated at CfDS (C2B); New name: Category:First Nations geography of Canada 09:22, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  13. Category:First Nations governments: nominated at CfDS (C2B); New name: Category:First Nations governments in Canada 09:23, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  14. Category:First Nations history: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:First Nations history in Canada 09:24, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  15. Category:First Nations organizations: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:First Nations organizations in Canada 09:26, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  16. Category:First Nations organizations by province or territory: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:First Nations organizations in Canada by province or territory 09:27, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  17. Category:First Nations stubs: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:First Nations in Canada stubs 10:02, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  18. Category:Dionysus in Greek mythology: nominated at RfD; Target: Category:Mythology of Dionysus (notified); notified Catalographer (talk · contribs) 11:21, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Unneeded soft redirect from an unlikely search term. What other mythology would Dionysus appear in? This redirect was created shortly before its target (which used to be Category:Dionysus in mythology).
  19. Category:Mythology of central Greece: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Mythology of Central Greece 11:34, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  20. Category:Fictional characters from Mexico City: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Fictional people from Mexico City 12:22, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  21. Noble women: nominated at RM; New name: Noblewomen 09:50, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This is usually one word. See for example the entry in the online Cambridge Dictionary. It also makes it clear that it's referring to the term noblewomen and not women who are noble in some other way.
  22. Template:I: nominated at RfD; Target: Template:Indent (notified); notified Plastikspork (talk · contribs) 15:26, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Delete: Ambiguous, opaque template shortcut. Barely used and very likely to cause confusion. I just replaced or removed the template in all 14 articles it was transcluded in, and only one of them was using it correctly. There were several instances of it being used in refs copied from French Wikipedia where {{I}} is used to insert the Roman numeral I, and two instances where it was accidentally used instead of {{!}}. Considering its current output is whitespace, it would be much more obvious to spot mistakes if it was instead redlinked.
  23. Category:Heroes who ventured to Hades: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Katabasis in classical mythology; notified Catalographer (talk · contribs) 15:47, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Currently a very poetic name, and ambiguous because Hades can also refer to the god. It's a subcategory of Category:Katabasis (a journey to the underworld). Renaming would expand the scope to depictions of katabasis in classical mythology and not just heroes (the category currently contains Sisyphus, who was not a hero) and not just Greek mythology (the category currently contains Aeneas, whose story was part of Roman mythology).
  24. Category:Mazes in culture: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Mazes in popular culture; notified Sdf (talk · contribs) 08:07, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: The current description is "Depictions and uses of mazes in human culture". All mazes exist in human culture as they are human cultural artefacts. The current contents are Labyrinth (1986 film) and four Adventure Time redirects. Renaming it to a popular culture category would be a clearer scope, and it could be expanded with other depictions of mazes that are not mazes themselves, such as films about mazes, to avoid them being placed directly in Category:Mazes.
  25. Category:Titans (mythology): nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Titans 13:36, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: per Titans. Previously speedied the other way just before the article was moved to the current title.
  26. Category:Tragedies (dramas): nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Tragedy 14:25, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: also C2C. The category is for the genre as a whole not just individual tragedies. It was unilaterally moved to disambiguate it from a category the mover created that was subsequently deleted.
  27. Category:Black MIDI enthusiasts: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified YourTypicalWikipedian (talk · contribs) 11:46, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
  28. Category:Wikipedian uilleann pipers-1: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Wikipedian uilleann pipers 11:49, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
  29. Category:NUMTOT Wikipedians: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Wikipedians interested in transportation; notified DoctorWho42 (talk · contribs) 11:52, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
  30. Category:Phaedra: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Phaedra (mythology) 12:57, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
  31. Category:Nobility of Italy: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Italian nobility 00:32, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  32. Category:Shrines to the Virgin Mary: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Shrines to Mary, mother of Jesus 00:41, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  33. Category:Paintings of the Assumption of the Virgin: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Paintings of the Assumption of Mary 01:08, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: also C2D.
  34. Category:Virgin Mary in art: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Mary, mother of Jesus, in art 01:10, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  35. Category:Paintings of the Virgin Mary: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Paintings of Mary, mother of Jesus 01:11, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  36. Category:Prints of the Virgin Mary: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Prints of Mary, mother of Jesus 01:11, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  37. Category:Sculptures of the Virgin Mary: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Sculptures of Mary, mother of Jesus 01:12, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  38. Category:Statues of the Virgin Mary: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Statues of Mary, mother of Jesus 01:13, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  39. Category:Kings of Minyan Orchomenus: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Kings of Orchomenus (Boeotia) 02:02, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  40. Category:Archaeological artifacts of India: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Archaeological artefacts of India 03:04, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  41. Category:Perseid dynasty: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Perseides 04:11, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  42. Category:Rivers of Hades: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Rivers of the Greek underworld 07:08, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
  43. Category:Paintings of the Assumption of the Virgin: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Paintings of the Assumption of Mary; notified DilletantiAnonymous (talk · contribs) 16:06, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Per Category:Assumption of Mary and Assumption of Mary. Even though most of the paintings in the category are called Assumption of the Virgin, this is a category for any paintings of the Assumption of Mary, regardless of title. Also, the use of "Virgin Mary" has been discussed countless times (for example here) and there's a reason why the main article is called Mary, mother of Jesus, so rather than rehash that for every other article and category named after her, it feels best to follow the lead of the main article.
  44. Category:Robert Lucas family: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Family of Robert Lucas (governor) 04:10, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
  45. Category:Jefferson Davis family: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Family of Jefferson Davis 04:13, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
  46. Category:Ahmed Raza Khan family: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Family of Ahmed Raza Khan Barelvi 04:15, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
  47. Category:Muhammad Iqbal family: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Family of Muhammad Iqbal 04:16, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
  48. Category:Fateh Ali Khan family: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Family of Fateh Ali Khan (Qawwali singer) 04:19, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

  50. Category:Beyincé family: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Knowles–Carter family; notified Willthacheerleader18 (talk · contribs) 04:40, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: I don't know why this category for Beyoncé's family is named after the surname of her non-notable maternal grandfather and much less famous cousin Angela Beyincé. Her mother (Tina Knowles) was born with the surname "Beyonce". On the other hand, her father (Mathew Knowles) has an article and his surname is more well-known. It would be best to expand this category to include all members of Beyoncé's and Jay-Z's family, with the focus on them since they are objectively the most notable members.
  51. Category:Elijah Muhammad family: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Family of Elijah Muhammad 00:31, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
  52. Category:National League saves champions: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:National League (baseball) saves champions 02:24, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
  53. Category:National League wins champions: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:National League (baseball) wins champions 02:25, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

  1. Category:Shakespeare-related lists: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:William Shakespeare-related lists 02:52, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
  2. Lelex (mythology): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Lelex 03:41, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This page doesn't need to be disambiguated as there is no page at Lelex.
  3. Category:Paeonian mythology: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Mythological Paeonians; notified Catalographer (talk · contribs) 11:26, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: All but one of these articles (Amydon) are for mythological Paeonian people in Greek mythology. The current name makes it sound like it's for the local mythology of the Paeonian people. Reparent to somewhere in Category:Mythological people by nationality, and the one article that doesn't fit can be purged.
  4. Category:History of Thebes (Boeotia): nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:History of Thebes, Greece 11:31, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
  5. Category:Ancient Thebes (Boeotia): nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Ancient Thebes, Greece 11:38, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

  8. Category:Mythology of Argos: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Mythology of Argos, Peloponnese 12:15, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
  9. Category:Minyan mythology: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Boeotian mythology; notified Markx121993 (talk · contribs) 12:33, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Upmerge unnecessary category layer. The category name implies that it's for mythology of the Minyan people rather than what it actually is, which is Greek mythology relating to the Minyans. Most of the articles are in the subcategory Category:Minyans.
  10. Category:Football clubs in Pieria: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Football clubs in Pieria (regional unit) 14:04, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
  11. Category:Thraco-Macedonian mythology: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Catalographer (talk · contribs) 14:15, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This doesn't appear to be any different to its subcategory. I cleaned up the contents and everything ended up in there so it's otherwise empty. I can't find any evidence that the term "Thraco-Macedonian mythology" exists.
  12. Category:Battles involving Kent: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Battles involving the Kingdom of Kent 03:33, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
  13. Category:Battles involving Corinth: nominated at CfDS (C2D); New name: Category:Battles involving ancient Corinth 03:36, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
