- Nominator's rationale: The articles in this category are a mixture of articles about the science/technology of radio (e.g. Antenna tuning hut, Peak envelope power) and articles about radio broadcasting (e.g. Drive time, Guest host); they are not articles about terminology. The titles of these articles may be terms, but articles should be categorized by the article's topic. Nor should "terminology" categories be miscellaneous categories.
- Example previous similar CFD. Note: After upmerging many of the articles may be moved down to a more specific category. DexDor (talk) 11:50, 23 October 2019 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:Queer anarchism to Category:LGBT anarchism.
- Nominator's rationale: The category "Queer anarchism" shouldn't be the parent category for all LGBT anarchisms, because queer anarchism/anarcha-queer is just one ideological subtype of LGBT anarchism. Furthermore, much of the actual content for the main article is related to LGBT people who lived and died long before the term "queer" was reclaimed. I would also suggest that the "queer anarchism" article either be renamed "LGBT anarchism" or be split out into two articles, one for queer anarchism and one for LGBT anarchism. The term "queer anarchist" is probably applicable to groups like Bash Back! or DUMBA, but would not be applicable to Der Eigene or Mujeres Creando. Bohemian Baltimore ( talk) 10:42, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- Rename to LGBTQ
anachronismanarchism. Both queer and LGBT are used as umbrellas for a wide swath of communities roughly encompassing the same populations, with almost no widely accepted definition of who would be excluded. Just like ‘the gays’ was expanded to LGBT. The biggest difference lately is that some people will identify as one identity within the umbrella like non-binary. Those identities all can fit into LGBTQ. Some people purposely identify as queer which makes LGBT a bit harder to apply, LGBTQ solves that. Gleeanon409 ( talk) 13:41, 23 October 2019 (UTC)

- Rename as nom (without Q). If you intend to rename a set of articles or categories of LGBTQQIP2SAA+ topics to queer, LG+ or any other name, it would probably be worth discussing it a little bit before in appropriate venues, such as Wikipedia talk:WikiProject LGBT studies and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Categories. Until then, LGBT is the consistently used umbrella term. Place Clichy ( talk) 05:31, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:Queer erasure to Category:LGBT erasure.
- Nominator's rationale: The term "queer" is not universally used as an identifier within LGBTQ communities, thus this parent category being named "queer erasure" isn't inclusive enough. Ironically, it actually erases non-queer LGBT people. Queer erasure is one sub-type of LGBTQ erasure, so it should not be the name of the parent cat. There needs to be a more inclusive category name.
