Propose renaming Category:Cache to Category:Caching (computing)
Nominator's rationale: Rename. This is a computing-specific category; it's not about caches in general. Compared to "caches", "caching" seems like a better title for the topic (but I think "caches" would be an improvement too, and valid under speedy criterion C2A). See separate move request for Cache.

Nominator's rationale: Created by the same editor who gave us the Category:Shopping areas in Canada category tree, nominated previously. This has been created both as a parent and subcategory to that tree. I don't see an established "Shopping in foo-country" structure, and it appears to duplicate the well-established Category:Retailing by country tree. Yes, one does find several unrelated "shopping in foo" categories but not enough for us to establish a tree in Canada, I believe, and especially because, once again, this has all been introduced to categorize a single shopping mall in Moncton.

If there is no consensus to delete, then rename to Category:International Airport Irkutsk as suggested in the original WP:CFD/S nomination. -- Black Falcon ( talk) 04:51, 28 January 2012 (UTC) reply

This entire category scheme seems to have been created to funnel us to a single article, Trinity Power Centre, which is a power centre in Moncton, and is categorized as such. (Note that the editor has asked to change his user name, but seems to again be editing under the old one. He's still newish, and admirably eager to write about Moncton, but I'm beginning to think there are some serious WP:COMPETENCE issues.) Shawn in Montreal ( talk) 04:43, 28 January 2012 (UTC) reply

Propose renaming Category:American Civil War monuments, memorials, and cemeteries to Category:American Civil War military memorials and cemeteries

Propose splitting Category:Confederate States of America memorials and cemeteries to Category:Confederate States of America monuments and memorials or Category:Confederate States of America cemeteries
Nominator's rationale: RenameSplitting. To match the main parent. I'm also not sure that combining memorials and cemeteries is the best choice, so if consensus is to split these, I would not oppose and would be willing to include the parent in this nomination. Vegaswikian ( talk) 02:22, 28 January 2012 (UTC) reply
  • Oppose. You haven't explained the direction this is going in but potentially this has a broad impact. Separating out into different categories will soon result in artificial groupings. E.g. Antietam National Battlefield, like many such entries, refers to memorials and a cemetery. Before embarking on a massive change I request that you test these changes out with the appropriate project editors (Military, history, Death) who might know something about the subject in question. Ephebi ( talk) 19:28, 29 January 2012 (UTC) reply
    • Direction? As I said to match the main parents. Per WP:SUBCAT, most of the included articles should belong in all of the parent categories. So articles about cemeteries should not be in the monuments category. The same is true for the other direction. This will just require the articles themselves to be listed in the correct category trees. We also tend to avoid categories for multiple types of things. Vegaswikian ( talk) 03:25, 4 February 2012 (UTC) reply
  • Support creating cemeteries and monuments categories as seperate categories. If something is both it can go in both categories, but many cemeteries are clearly not monuments, and many monuments are clearly not cemeteries. Also in some cases the two may be at essentially the same place but notable enough to each warrent a seperate article. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 06:28, 9 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: RenameSplitting. To match the main parent. I'm also not sure that combining memorials and cemeteries is the best choice, so if consensus is to split these, I would not oppose and would be willing to include the parent in this nomination.

  • Oppose. You haven't explained the direction this is going in but potentially this has a broad impact. Separating out into different categories will soon result in artificial groupings. E.g. Antietam National Battlefield, like many such entries, refers to memorials and a cemetery. Before embarking on a massive change I request that you test these changes out with the appropriate project editors (Military, history, Death) who might know something about the subject in question.

    • Direction? As I said to match the main parents. Per WP:SUBCAT, most of the included articles should belong in all of the parent categories. So articles about cemeteries should not be in the monuments category. The same is true for the other direction. This will just require the articles themselves to be listed in the correct category trees. We also tend to avoid categories for multiple types of things.

  • Support creating cemeteries and monuments categories as seperate categories. If something is both it can go in both categories, but many cemeteries are clearly not monuments, and many monuments are clearly not cemeteries. Also in some cases the two may be at essentially the same place but notable enough to each warrent a seperate article. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 06:28, 9 February 2012 (UTC) reply
