- Propose renaming
Category:Limburg (province) to
Category:Limburg (Belgium)
- Nominator's rationale: Rename. The current title doesn't make it clear which Limburg is involved: the
Dutch province or the
Belgian province. It is the latter. The category should be renamed to make that clear.

Rename, but since the province contains the town of
Limbourg, to
Category:Limburg (Belgian province) for maximum clarity. Some Dutch articles have (unsurprisingly) crept in here too.

- "Limburg" (aka
Limbourg) is also the main town of the province, so I have renamed the province article to
Limburg (Belgian province). The category should match.

- Propose renaming
Category:Hipper class cruisers to
Category:Admiral Hipper class cruisers
- Nominator's rationale: Rename to agree with the class article
Admiral Hipper class cruiser. The corrected name is also supported by the German article at
[1].

- Propose renaming
Category:YMS-1 class auxiliary motor minesweepers to
Category:YMS-1 class minesweepers
- Nominator's rationale: In accordance with the recent rename of the class article
YMS-1 class minesweeper, per
this discussion at WP:Ships.

- Rename - appears to be in accordance with Wikiship guidelines not to be overspecific in naming of classes.

Category:Wikipedia categories - This is a sprawling category populated by
Template:Wikipedia category. It's inclusion criteria seems to be any page which has that template, and that template could potentially go on every category not directly related to mainspace (including every
Wikipedian category). Not sure how this could be seen as "helpful", and
Category:Wikipedia administration would seem to cover this better. This would seem to fall under the suggestion that "not every template needs to have an associated category.". -

- Keep and cleanup use as parent to all non-mainspace categories, remove the categorization from the template (ie. "<noinclude>" ) , Wikipedia administration would seem to be more specialized, going by its name. I don't see user categories as administration...

- User categories are also currently top level in
Category:Contents. If this should become parent, all 4
Category:Contents categories beginning with W should be put under it. The category should be emptied of transclusions either way. –
Pomte 07:27, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
reply
- Except that "Wikipedia categories" could refer to all of the categories in category:Contents, since "Wikipedia" could refer to the encyclopedia, to Wikipedia-space, or both... That said, there seems to be consensus (so far) that it shouldn't be populated by the template. (Which, I presume, will empty the category.) -

Category:Karolyi Six Pack (

- Nominator's rationale: A well-intentioned, but really unnecessary category. The real term "Karolyi Six Pack" referred to six specific American gymnasts who trained with
Bela Karolyi in 1990-1992; as a category it's being used to describe any American gymnast who trained with Karolyi, including those who worked with him before the term was even invented. There are less than 10 gymnasts who could be accurately added to the category, and many of them are non-notable and don't have Wiki articles anyway (not all the legit Six Pack gymnasts were Olympians or World Championships team members)--it just doesn't seem to be a large enough or notable enough group to justify a category.

Category:Transgressive artists because there is no firm definition of what it is, this suffers the same infirmity: Warhol's opus & the Danish Muhammad cartoons have little in common.

- Delete - While this could be a great topic for an article it is a poor choice for a category. "Transgressive art" is not the name of a genre, per se, and although it's a common phrase it will certainly be applied to arbitrary & capricious ways. --
