Hello, Aidan721,
I was wondering why you emptied most but not all of these college soccer team season categories. Did you just remove categories from Redirect pages or is this a more complicated recategorization? Thanks for any explanation you can provide. Liz Read! Talk! 19:53, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
I speedily processed the category two days ago, but ir was wrong, because it is not about Dutch diaspora, but about Dutch Caribbean. I have now moved it back. If you think splitting is needed this should be done at CFD. Thanks. Ymblanter ( talk) 06:55, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
Hi Aidan. You've recently added a number of articles about criminal and/or terrorist attacks to categories covering "Disasters in Ireland". These Troubles-related events were and are already covered by appropriate terrorism, criminality and Troubles categories. The "Disasters" categories, certainly Ireland-related ones where they are caused by humans, are almost exclusively used for non-criminal events - famines, landslides, floods, etc. Can I ask you to revert these changes, please?

Hello, I'm asking about your revert to edits on triplets Leila Luik, Liina Luik, and Lily Luik. Each individual in that group is most often covered as a triplet; it's a defining characteristic about them. I asked the user who made the comment about removing the category from individuals here, and they said that it is a gray area and that I should contact you. So I don't think that the deletion decision was to remove all individuals from the categories, because in the decision it only said "purge" with no comments about individuals. I think you would need another CfD to say that individuals definitively do not belong, so I will add them back in the mean time. What do you think? -- Habst ( talk) 17:19, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
Hi, when nominating categories e.g. for renaming from "by city" to "by populated place", please would you also update the sort keys that use "city" to "Populated place"? – unless you are planning to do a sweep of them afterwards to update this, or unless there is serious doubt about the nomination going through. – Fayenatic London 12:36, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

I noticed you frequently nominate category for discussion where the category size is a factor, and so the template {{ clc}} is probably better when listing the categories. I've updated massCFD to support other templates for listing categories - let me know what you think, and if you find any bugs. Happy editing! — Qwerfjkl talk 21:45, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
Can you walk me through your edits related to a template that I spent a lot of time on? It seems like you renamed a template by creating a new page Template:Universities_and_colleges_(dis)established_in_YYYY_category_header [1] without attribution, and then redirecting the old page Template:Universities_and_colleges_established_by_year [2]
It seems like the more appropriate approach would have been to move the template and preserve the edit history Mason ( talk) 23:43, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
