There's currently a discussion at
WT:MOSFILM#Category: Foo in film just now starting up considering renaming their own categories to a scheme such as
Category: Films about foo or
Category: Films featuring foo. The rationale there is that these two schemes are less ambiguous and more clear about how such categories are used (in that the work it appears on has this element as a significant or defining trait) and are less likely to be cat spammed or abused by being thrown onto pages with the argument "well, foo appears in the film". The discussion over there is in infancy, but it seems to be relevant for this bunch. Should we consider that the "about" or "featuring" scheme in lieu of "in" for the same reasons? ~Cheers,

I would rather focus on the current renaming proposal. As you said, the other discussion is in its infancy and not to a point where this proposal should be suspended. Once a consensus on that discussion is clear, presuming there is any change to the film naming scheme, renaming these categories can be reconsidered as part of a broader renaming proposal. —Farix (

Fair. Wasn't really thinking about that discussion suspending this one, just wondering if it was worth considering from the get-go. On that note, support rename as proposed in nom.

Nominator's rationale: Ambiguously defined category. What exactly defines an "adult animated television series"? I seriously doubt any of the articles included can be backed up by reliable sources. If it is meant to be for
anime shown late at night, category should be renamed as such. —Farix (

Comment: Anime (such as
FLCL) broadcast on
Adult Swim are targeted at adults. Anime broadcast in Japan on late night television are also targeted at adults. Anime based on 青年漫画 (seinen manga) or 成人向け漫画 (seijin muke manga) are also targeted at adults. (Side note: Devilman Crybaby is on Netflix, and Golden Boy was on Russian MTV).

It would be a violation of
WP:No original research to classify any anime series as "adult animated television series" based purely on its time slot. Secondly, this category name has "Japanese television series", meaning that the series aired on Japanese television. If an anime did not air on Japanese television, they should not be in the category. —Farix (
