The result of the discussion was: procedural close, the category has already been deleted per WP:G5 (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 07:01, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Creator is a sockpuppet of Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Hong Kong geography warrior, a long-term disruptive editor who is known for applying historic/obscure names of geographic features to modern-day neighbourhoods. (Basically, inventing place names). Their username, "KTKcreator", refers to the fact that they have been pushing the name "Kei Tau Kok" in this manner.

Category:Mental illness in films

[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 Category:Mental illness in films to Category:Films about mental health, no consensus on how to handle Category:Films about mental disability. plicit 01:52, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge and rename, per main article Mental disorder and I can not see how to the two categories might have a different scope. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:51, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The difference in scope is that the current wording includes films which feature mental illnesses/disorders without the film being about that topic. If the renaming goes ahead, it's likely that some of its entries will no longer be eligible, because of its narrower description. Jim Michael (talk) 18:13, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • If a film is not about this topic it should be purged indeed. In practice I do not expect much purging will be needed, as the category page says "Films that feature mental illness as a prominent plot element." Marcocapelle (talk) 20:24, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support rename The main article is mental disorder. Neutral on the merger, as I am not certain what "mental disability" describes. Dimadick (talk) 04:39, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as proposed greatly changes scope of category. Instead create a subcategory with the proposed name. Almost all the categorized films will need to be removed it if it just renamed, since the films are not "about" some disorder, as they are not documentary films about disorders, it is about a film story that features disorders, but that isn't their main point. Even biopics of people with the disorder is about the person, and not the disorder. Suggest instead Category: Films featuring mental disorders -- 64.229.90.53 (talk) 16:47, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • ie. "Pearl Harbor" is film featuring the attack on Pearl Harbor, while "Tora Tora Tora" is a film about the attack on Pearl Harbor. "The Longest Day" is a film about the Normandy invasions, while "Saving Private Ryan" is a film featuring the Normandy invasions. -- 64.229.90.53 (talk) 16:56, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. (non-admin closure) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 04:14, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The former category is pretty vague and less defining than the latter. There are some games with customizable avatars, but the others don't. HarmonyBunny00 (talk) 19:20, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Anti-Turkish sentiment. (non-admin closure) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 04:15, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The lead article is called "Anti-Turkish sentiment", which would be a better name for the category, as Turkism is something else. (t · c) buidhe 03:31, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support, more inline with other categories and as nominator points out Turkism is something else.--Mvqr (talk) 11:43, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
We had this discussion many times on the talk page that it's not against pan-Turkism, anyways, support. Beshogur (talk) 13:07, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Strong support: This is a very sensible move. I go per nom and Dimadick. Dunutubble (talk) 16:39, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Political parties with anti-Turkish sentiment

[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 (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 07:33, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: After I removed articles that had been placed in this category but had no verifiable source for being "anti-Turkish", there were only two articles left. In addition, it does not seem a WP:DEFINING characteristic for political parties. We have no Category:Political parties with anti-German sentiment for example.
