Mike Selinker (

Proposer's rationale The category contains material newly merged from Category:Non Trinitarianism. The effect of the merger has been to widen the scope of the category. It is no longer confined to denominations. It now includes doctrinal definitions, history and a lot of weighty "isms". The proposed name is a more accurate reflection of its current character.

Cordless Larry (
talk) 16:41, 10 December 2010 (UTC)reply
Comment "Large" is POV. Actually every place has a 100% ehtnic population, assuming that every one has an ethnicity. I assume we are talking about places with a "non-European ethnic majority"; if so the category name should be along those lines.
Peterkingiron (
talk) 22:01, 16 December 2010 (UTC)reply
Yes, I noted in the original CfD that the concept of "ethnic populations" is problematic and is perhaps the result of the widespread tendency for people to use the word "ethnic" only to refer to ethnic minorities. I should have probably reposted that here before now.
Cordless Larry (

Though they are not all non-European. There are Polish and Hungarian articles in the category.
Cordless Larry (
talk) 11:04, 17 December 2010 (UTC)reply
Comment this is a difficult one. RevelationDirect's suggestion makes the most sense. Categories of ethnic majorities is clear and precise. The "large population" categories should be move to the "ethnic enclaves" category or deleted. On the other hand, as Cordless Larry mentions, using "ethnic" to refer only to "ethnic minorities" is problematic, unless we're going to create
List of U.S. cities with majority WASP populations or
List of U.S. cities with majority anglophone populations, or what have you. -
TheMightyQuill (

I don't think "
ethnic enclave" is appropriate for the category name, because the simple fact that a community has a large number of a particular ethnic group doesn't necessarily mean that they all live together in a "neighbourhood, district, or suburb which retains some cultural distinction." postdlf (talk) 14:10, 23 December 2010 (UTC)reply

Category:Religious architecture is the head of that tree. Sacred is a standard term used in this way in art history; but that category is not in the nomination. Heaven knows what exists elsewhere in this huge tree; that doesn't concern me much compared to whether it makes sense here.

Category:To Kill a Mockingbird characters with clear inclusion criteria (and
Atticus Finch is indeed first and foremost a 'To Kill a Mockingbird character') and people wish to merge this into a vague mishmash of things tangentially related to the book? It makes one yearn for the return of Otto and Carlossuarez who would have extinguished

Nominator's rationale: Stefanomione has also to date selected three brief cultural periods in the U.S. (of vastly differing importance). He's called them "eras" -- which I suppose they can be in the most colloquial sense, per
Era#Colloquial "eras" -- and grouped works related to each. No doubt he plans to expand to more such "eras." Before he does, I'd like to see if there could be a more precise name. For one, I think the whole thing is backward: seems to me that he's grouping Media by "era," not the other way around.

Proposer's rationale The category contains material newly merged from Category:Non Trinitarianism. The effect of the merger has been to widen the scope of the category. It is no longer confined to denominations. It now includes doctrinal definitions, history and a lot of weighty "isms". The proposed name is a more accurate reflection of its current character.

Nominator's rationale:Previous CfD closed with consensus for renaming but with no consensus as to the new name. Relisting as suggested.
Cordless Larry (
talk) 16:41, 10 December 2010 (UTC)reply
Comment "Large" is POV. Actually every place has a 100% ehtnic population, assuming that every one has an ethnicity. I assume we are talking about places with a "non-European ethnic majority"; if so the category name should be along those lines.
Peterkingiron (
talk) 22:01, 16 December 2010 (UTC)reply
Yes, I noted in the original CfD that the concept of "ethnic populations" is problematic and is perhaps the result of the widespread tendency for people to use the word "ethnic" only to refer to ethnic minorities. I should have probably reposted that here before now.
Cordless Larry (
talk) 11:03, 17 December 2010 (UTC)reply
Though they are not all non-European. There are Polish and Hungarian articles in the category.
Cordless Larry (
talk) 11:04, 17 December 2010 (UTC)reply
Comment this is a difficult one. RevelationDirect's suggestion makes the most sense. Categories of ethnic majorities is clear and precise. The "large population" categories should be move to the "ethnic enclaves" category or deleted. On the other hand, as Cordless Larry mentions, using "ethnic" to refer only to "ethnic minorities" is problematic, unless we're going to create
List of U.S. cities with majority WASP populations or
List of U.S. cities with majority anglophone populations, or what have you. -
TheMightyQuill (
talk) 20:32, 22 December 2010 (UTC)reply
I don't think "
ethnic enclave" is appropriate for the category name, because the simple fact that a community has a large number of a particular ethnic group doesn't necessarily mean that they all live together in a "neighbourhood, district, or suburb which retains some cultural distinction." postdlf (talk) 14:10, 23 December 2010 (UTC)reply

Strong Oppose The scheme has
Category:Byzantine sacred architecture with 71 churches, monasteries etc, and this. Why nominate one & not the other? Given the minute categorization of more modern and European architecture/buildings, the case needs to be made much better that this is OCAT. I don't see it. The category is well-populated with several sub-cats & articles in the main cat.

Note: Relisted because category wasn't tagged.
I see there is neither
Category:Secular architecture nor
Category:Sacred architecture. Does this division exist in any other architecture subcategory? At a minimum, "sacred" is not the best word to use for the architecture of religious buildings. postdlf (talk) 18:59, 10 December 2010 (UTC)reply
Category:Religious architecture is the head of that tree. Sacred is a standard term used in this way in art history; but that category is not in the nomination. Heaven knows what exists elsewhere in this huge tree; that doesn't concern me much compared to whether it makes sense here.

Merge: The three existing articles plus the two character articles would bring the cat up to five. And I moved two additional articles into the cat.
RevelationDirect (

And you moved
The Boo Radleys into this category because ... ? Here we have a well-defined category
Category:To Kill a Mockingbird characters with clear inclusion criteria (and
Atticus Finch is indeed first and foremost a 'To Kill a Mockingbird character') and people wish to merge this into a vague mishmash of things tangentially related to the book? It makes one yearn for the return of Otto and Carlossuarez who would have extinguished
Category:To Kill a Mockingbird in a few words.
Occuli (
talk) 03:30, 11 December 2010 (UTC)reply
You're right; that was a poor choice because they are more of a reference to the work. I left the other article I added (
To Kill a Mockingbird in popular culture) in place though. If the merge is passed, the main cat would now have 6 articles.

Nominator's rationale: Stefanomione has also to date selected three brief cultural periods in the U.S. (of vastly differing importance). He's called them "eras" -- which I suppose they can be in the most colloquial sense, per
Era#Colloquial "eras" -- and grouped works related to each. No doubt he plans to expand to more such "eras." Before he does, I'd like to see if there could be a more precise name. For one, I think the whole thing is backward: seems to me that he's grouping Media by "era," not the other way around.
Shawn in Montreal(

Two of the included subcategories are historical periods. The third is a literary movement. They're not equivalent things. Even setting that aside, I'm failing to see the point to grouping these together. postdlf (talk) 03:41, 13 December 2010 (UTC)reply

Keep - fans of the films may not like it, but the awards are notable and this category is appropriate.

Delete – there is no 'overarching established category tree' for this small place (population 4000).
Category:Towns in North Rhine-Westphalia should be a list category for articles about towns, not a gathering of subcats for towns (which include articles about non-towns, eg buildings, churches). This is exactly the sort of eponymous category which should be deleted - it will collect together a hotch-potch of articles vaguely related to Hallenberg with no clear inclusion criteria. Same goes for all the others, correctly listed by
Dэя.

Comment. These categories have been created as part of WikiProject Germany to translate articles from German Wikipedia and, in such cases, we use their category structure because it is logical. These town categories have a clear inclusion criterion i.e. anything that falls within the town boundary, typically villages, hills, lakes, buildings and places of interest. This one currently has only one of the 13 German articles translated, so could be hidden for now until more appear. --
