Given that the term Rideable can be both an adjective (to describe anything that can be ridden), or a noun (to describe a specific type of electric device that can be ridden) then might it be more appropriate to use the term 'Rideables manufacturers' or possibly 'Electric rideable manufacturers' or 'Electric rideables manufacturers'. Personally I would prefer us to focus our efforts on the discussion about moving the Personal Transporter article itself and only open this discussion if we have a result there. Consideration of this issue might however encourage us towards the more specific term 'Electric rideable' for the main WP article rather than Rideable.

Nominator's rationale: Most of the entries have been added because of the title. For instance, is 'Highway 61 Revisited' about a road or a street in the physical sense? Big Man on Mulberry Street is, at a guess, about a 'Big Man' There is nothing to really join these songs except for a word in the title. This is NOT what categorisation is for.

Delete. Seems a pointless category that would attract all manner of titles with the vaguest of connections. For example, Dancing in the Street is a song about dancing, not about a specific street or road.

Nominator's rationale: The term 'scheduled monument' is preferred over 'scheduled ancient monument', also the capitalisation is unnecessary. The main article for this topic is
scheduled monument. There are numerous sub-categories, some of which have 'scheduled monuments in...', e.g.
Category: Scheduled monuments in Anglesey, but others are 'Scheduled Ancient Monuments in...' e.g.
Category:Scheduled Ancient Monuments in Hampshire. I think they should all be consistent and use the same form as the main article. There are about 80 subcategories in the latter form, is there some way of automatically tagging and adding all of them?

Keep England and Northern Ireland and rename the rest to match, as
Category:Scheduled Monuments in Scotland. This is a UK-wide designation, though now implemented by separate authorities in the 4 home nations. "in UK" is probably not necessary because this only applies to UK. Hence also rename to
Category:Scheduled Monuments. This categorisation is correct because it is a statutory designation and thus a proper name. That fact that it applies to UK only can adequately be dealt with in a headnote. For the uninitiated in UK, archaeological sites as protected by Scheduling. Buildings are protected by being made Listed Buildings. Originally they were all ancient, but I suspect there will be some archaeological sites that are industrial and thus not very ancient.
