Delete – the single article isn't an album; the album referred to within the article was not recorded by
Chikayo Fukuda so it is not a 'Chikayo Fukuda album'; and CF has no article. Is some ill-directed script producing these random categories? (I see again that its text is generated entirely by the mysterious {{Albums category}}.)

Nominator's rationale:Delete. I'm reasonably sure we don't want or need a category for albums that were originally released on Mr. Bear Records but then reissued on Spigot Records. I would suggest breaking this into two categories, but do not have articles for
Mr. Bear Records or
Spigot Records.

Can we get clarification on that?
User:Rich Farmbrough created a ton of these albums by record label categories, and many of the labels don't have articles. I started removing them out of process because of that, and then I agreed to go through some of the ones created because I kept finding errors. --

Yeah, I'm not 100% sure if it's been settled this way in the past, which is why I have brought it here. I know we routinely delete categories for albums by redlinked producers, so it would be consistent to do so with redlinked labels. I agree with that approach, at least. If it's not notable enough to have an article I don't see why we would want a category for it.
Good Ol’factory(talk)01:17, 14 January 2011 (UTC)reply
Delete – I would distinguish between producers/labels/songwriters who have no article but could/should have one, and those for whom an article would be wholly excessive, and this seems to be the case here.

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

Nominator's rationale:Rename. The introduction points to
Geography of California as the source of information. That article claims there are 11 and not 12 provinces as stated in the category and that they are geomorphic provinces. In any case neither of of those numbers seems to be mappable to the contents of this category. So while this is proposed as a rename, I suspect that some cleanup is called for here. A delete is also a possibility since I suspect that the current contents are not appropriate for inclusion since their reason for inclusion here is not mentioned in the articles.

Comment, perhaps needs editors' clarifications/consensus on whether cat. is for
Geologic province focused articles, or broader
Geomorphology inclusiveness with additional factors. If USGS/geology criteria is used perhaps current name is more accurate? Are other factors already in Cat:Landforms, Cat:Drainage Basins, etc? Not my expertise area, and will listen now. —
