The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Television shows filmed in the United States. (non-admin closure) 2pou (talk) 18:44, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: An unnecessary level of indirection - the state-level categories should be direct subcats of Category:Television shows filmed in the United States User:力 (powera, π, ν) 20:19, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Disorders of adult personality and behaviour[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. plicit 02:08, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, this groups together very unrelated mental disorders. If one must group them by three or four then this might be a possibility but in Wikipedia we are not limited to a specific number. Besides it is odd not to be able to find Personality disorders directly under Mental disorders, since Personality disorders are one of the most well-known disorders. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:22, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. I don't love the name "Mental and behavioural disorders", but it's certainly more useful "Disorders of adult personality and behaviour". Perhaps it's simply a holdover from when personality disorders were in a different "axis" in the DSM to all other psych disorders. Regardless, specifying both is no longer useful. And specifying adult disorders is strange, most disorders (except personality disorders and a handful of others) can be diagnosed in at least adolescence. Including most of the ones in that category. --Xurizuri (talk) 22:08, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This category structure was created to mirror the ICD-10 categorization (see https://icd.who.int/browse10/2019/en#/V). This is an internationally recognized way to categorize all diseases and disorders in medicine. The ICD-10 calls the broad category "Mental and behavioural disorders" (codes F00-F99). Amongst the subcategories of this, one is "Disorders of adult personality and behaviour" (codes F60–F69). These titles are what the ICD-10 uses verbatim. The categories have {{ICD category}} at the top explaining this categorization. --Scott Alter (talk) 02:40, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Scott Alter. --Just N. (talk) 14:48, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Multi-genre disaster films[edit]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 07:49, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: I'm not aware of any of these hybrids being recognized film genres, and I'm not sure we need to combine them into single categories in this manner. The fact that these categories were created by an editor whose Talk page is replete with notifications about their categories being merged/renamed/deleted isn't boosting my confidence.

Category:Ancestors of the British Royal Family[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. TheSandDoctor Talk 07:20, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The royal and noble families of Europe are interrelated to such a vast extent that this category would, if complete, include too many articles to be defining or useful. There is also no definition of the royal family, so we'd be talking about listing all the ancestors of the noble and royal families that married into the family as well. This is non-defining and any useful definition of the term would duplicate existing categories, such as Category:British royalty. Celia Homeford (talk) 12:37, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose This seems a somewhat strange proposal for deletion. In the first instance, the nominator is in my view saying that, 'if the category was in a different state from what it currently is, it would therefore be too large and therefore should be deleted'. A nomination based on such a principle would arguably lead to the end of all categories on Wikipedia. Similarly, I don't understand why the nominator is not also nominating Category:British royalty (among many others) for deletion because surely that logic applies to that category just as well. Secondly, I don't know how this category duplicates Category:British royalty (or any other category by that matter); the 'Royalty' category has things like the Sword of Stalingrad in it. While I accept that the Sword is somewhat related to the British Royal Family, I don't think it can be considered British royalty in itself. Finally, while I accept that the nominated category has room for improvement, I don't think it has no encyclopedic value at all. Though it's a given that most European Royal Families are related to one another in some way, I would suggest that there is some encyclopedic benefit for showing how they are related, and to which notable figures they are related to. Alssa1 (talk) 18:44, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Non-defining and per previous consensus at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2011 August 25#Category:Ancestors of Elizabeth II. Besides, the currently included articles are wholly ludicrous and list an eclectic almost random bunch of people. DrKay (talk) 22:02, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Adding the few siblings in Category:Hip hop musicians by genre which likewise currently use "artists"
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, – Fayenatic London 10:51, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Category:Grime musicians's proposed name is missing the "music" part of the category. So whatever the result is, it shouldn't break C2C (though, seeing as the article is at Grime (music genre)), the entire tree should be C2D here). Gonnym (talk) 11:40, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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. – Fayenatic London 16:04, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: purge (that in the first place) and rename (to stress the definingness of self-harm), many articles do not fall within the definition of self-harm. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:12, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

They both easily fit the description of the first sentence of that article. Jim Michael (talk) 14:21, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I guess you're excluding those examples on the grounds of them being suicide attempts. However, it's not clear whether or not either character intends to kill herself. Jim Michael (talk) 08:29, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That's a problem with limiting it to films in which it's defining. Most films which are about self-harm are documentaries. Jim Michael (talk) 08:29, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. – Fayenatic London 16:06, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: delete, not a defining characteristic of the articles in this category. This is in contrast to the articles in Category:Films about suicide. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:57, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Arbitron market by state navigational boxes[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: rename all. – Fayenatic London 10:07, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Arbitron, now fully subsumed by Nielsen Media Research, defined/defines radio markets in the United States. These are proprietary, and in television, the use of Nielsen market definitions led to an OTRS ticket in 2008. Additionally, not all of the markets reflected in this and its child subcategories are defined radio markets by Arbitron. Renaming would remove any potential concerns similar to the old OTRS ticket for this category and more accurately reflect scope.

There are 51 subcategories of the form "(STATE) Arbitron market navigational boxes" which should all be changed to "(STATE) radio market navigational boxes":

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. There is a consensus that the category does have some sort of defining nature to it (doctors who have achieved some sort of notability for appearing on TV and other media). The question posed by the nomination is whether the category fails WP:SUBJECTIVECAT, or to rephrase the question, is the emphasis in the title on "celebrity" (which is subjective) or "celebrity doctor" taken as a descriptive term? It seems that the inability to settle on a new term more or less confirms the latter. It's also worth noting that there is already a main article at Celebrity doctor, which for some reason was not fully taken into account during the discussion. bibliomaniac15 19:22, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 08:48, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Wikipedia doesn't have general categories for any the Asian Academy Creative Awards so these specific categories don't really have a place here, they are too small. For now. The relevant article is Asian Academy Creative Awards. Liz Read! Talk! 04:29, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- Asian Academy Creative Awards (which should be the main article) indicates that this is Singapore's film award for Asia films, etc. Many countries have such award ceremonies, but only a few of the most prominent are allowed categories (as an exception to . The awards appear only to be four years old, so that none could have the normal minimum of five members yet. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:53, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
