Koavf: My closing note was quite polite, so I am sorry to see the tone of your comment here, when a quick "oops! fixing my mistake" would have been better. Any way, replying in your tone: Why do you repeatedly choose to be too lazy to check whether the CFD action which you have proposed is in fact the action for which you have written a rationale? Please don't blame others for your neglect. --

@
BrownHairedGirl: I'm not going to argue about tone-policing--it's wasted effort. Your fear was obviously unfounded--had the category just been deleted, then the two relevant entries would still be in the category you claimed they should be in. So what was the point of your comment? A simple, "Whoops! I didn't notice that was I said was irrelevant" would suffice here as well. I've had many interactions with you at CfD where you claim that my proposals are somehow unintelligible or you feign ignorance and act coy about what is clearly the case. The consensus was to delete, the relevant categories would be populated, I don't see what the problem is other than excessive lawyering of rules toward what end...? ―

@
Koavf: You aren't hearing me. My point is not all about lawyering. It is about avoiding miscategorisation. If merger is not needed because the two articles were already in the target category, then of course deletion would suffice. But your previous nomination didn't mention that important fact; you chose to mention only now. Please don't blame other editors for being unaware of facts which could considered crucial but chose not to mention when it mattered. And yes, you do have a repeated habit of failing to communicate simple but crucial facts about your CFD nominations. There's an easy remedy: take a few extra seconds to explain your proposed action, rather than assuming that other editors will replicate the research which you choose not to communicate. --

@
BrownHairedGirl: Had I known that you were going to be the one to close it, I definitely would have taken pains to be excessively detailed since you were worried about something which is irrelevant. Since you have a habit of willfully doing that, I will have to be ever vigilant that you may make a point of doing this in the future. The consensus was obviously delete (and with good reason) but you closed it as keep for some reason that escapes me. You were worried that the two relevant biographies wouldn't be in
Category:Indian Nobel laureates. They are. So I'm still confused as to what exactly the problem is other than possibly pettiness or vindictive passive-aggression on your part. I've no doubt that you're a fine editor otherwise and maybe a very polite person on the whole but I also feel like you make it a point to go out of your way to be needlessly particular as some kind of punishment against what you perceive to be transgressions of the CfD process. I've seen this at /Speedy where I've suggested that "X" be renamed "Y" because the main article is named "Y" but it was contested because I didn't provide a link to "Y"... As though it's simply impossible to find the article oneself or even--God forbid--take my claim at face value. So again, here we go with what I certainly think is a punitive and pedantic waste of everyone's time (yours included). Finally, if your concern is about miscategorization, I'd like to point out that presently, the other biographical article actually is miscategorized as they are subcategories of
Category:Indian Nobel laureates.
Ronald Ross is not an Indian person or citizen, yet he's subcategorized that way now. As you may see from my edits above, all of the three relevant bios are in the proper category now but if we wait for this process to run, Ross' bio will actually be the one miscategorized. ―

@
Koavf: You are making a big mountain of some thing very very very very very very very very simple. So I will summarise it in very very simple terms. 1. I have no view on whether to keep the category. As a closer, my job is to weigh whether there is a policy-based consensus for the action actually proposed, and in this case there was no consensus to remove all the articles from the Indian category. 2. If a nomination does not provide a rationale which addresses the action actually specified, then I will close it as "keep". If it does provide a rationale which addresses that action, then I weigh the consensus. Simple, isn't it?. And if you think that time has been wasted, then I agree: it has been wasted because of your persistent unwillingness to communicate the necessary information which you already know. You can very easily fix that if you want to. As to CFD/S, it's the same problem of your attitude to other editors participating in the consensus-forming process, which appears to me to be show them little regard. When you make a C2D nomination, you must have have identified the head article (or else the nomination would be bogus), so it takes a few seconds for you to link the main article with the nomination. Then anyone who wants to check can open the article with a single click, and check that it is not a redirect and assess its stability at the current title. If you do not provide that link, it's a multi-step process for every editor who makes those checks. So whatever time you save by making an incomplete nomination imposes a burden of multiples of that time on every other editor involved in the consensus-forming process. Why do you choose to repeatedly make things difficult in that way? It would be v quick and easy for you to facilitate others rather than subject them to a guessing game. Thats' why I will continue to oppose any such speedy proposals from any editor ... tho you are the only editor who has regularly failed to do so, or objected when challenged. I have no intention of changing my approach, and if you don't like it,
WP:ANI is thataway. -

BrownHairedGirl: "Why do you choose to repeatedly make things difficult in that way?" You'll note that I don't post Speedy CfDs like that anymore for precisely that reason. Feel free to be upset about it further if you want but I make it a point to not do that so I don't have to hear it from you anymore. I don't think you have been pleasant in my interactions with you, no matter how very very very very very very very very polite you think you are. If you want to continue being rude, off-putting, and condescending (although, admittedly in only a mild or sometimes back-handed way), then I'll continue dreading should you talk to me. The love-it-or-leave-it approach of ANI is also wasted effort--I never said you shouldn't be an admin or should be sanctioned or something like that. I said that I think you are needlessly petty toward me in particular (from what I've seen--this may be a consistent way that you approach things). Rules are fine and well and there are many times when it's necessary to follow a process to maintain fairness or safety. This is not one of those times. If I thought you were a bad editor or a bad admin or a bad person, then I would have pursued some different course of action a long time ago. I don't. I'm simply pointing out for your benefit and my ability to blow off some steam how your actions are perceived by someone else who has also been here a very long time and made many edits across many parts of the encyclopedia. I assume you feel the same way: if you thought I were doing something outright unacceptable, you could always put me up for some sanction. The fact that you don't gives me a tacit approval that you realize that I'm trying to make the encyclopedia better and on balance I do. For what it's worth, your justification rings hollow again to me: Ross wasn't Indian, so he shouldn't be in any "Indian [x]" category nor any subcategory of it. I don't know you and I have no beef with you--certainly, I'd prefer that an admin be too much a stickler than not enough, but too much anything is too much. In this case and considering all of the other times we've had back-and-forth, I can just tell that what you're going to write is going to be something that I will dislike. Not just because you will have an approach that I think is different than mine and certainly not because I think you are malicious but because comments like, "My closing note was quite polite, so I am sorry to see the tone of your comment here, when a quick 'oops! fixing my mistake' would have been better" are just smug and abrasive. Feel free to comment here, respond on my talk, email me, or if you're just over it, turn this into a collapsible section and move on to something else which I've no doubt will be a better use of your time and talents in making the encyclopedia a better place. ―

Great. You fixed the prob with the speedies, so you can fix this problem too. That's all. Just fix the problem, and then I will neither need to leave a polite note when closing a CFD (as in the one I just closed
[1]) nor have to choose to whether to respond to your complaints when you do fix the problem. As you say, you have been here a long time and you have many edits, so you will know that things need to be done in particular ways ... and long enough too to know that "this needs fixing" is not a personal attack.

Delete without merging. As the nominator stated in the previous CFD, not all members are Indians; and as I stated there, all members are already directly categorized in parent categories where this is appropriate. For the record, in case of future changes:
Amartya Sen,
Rabindranath Tagore and
Mother Teresa are in
Category:Indian Nobel laureates, while
Ronald Ross is in
Category:British Nobel laureates. IMHO there was sufficient consensus to close that discussion as delete, but the closer's labour on reducing the current backlog at CFD is appreciated, and I know from experience that such work does not always allow all the participants' arguments and claims to be checked when closing. –
