Nominator's rationale: Other ENwiki articles about Ottoman Empire vilayets use pre-1923 names, like "Constantinople Vilayet" and "Adrianople Vilayet", so this should use "Angora" instead of Ankara.

Category:White American working class
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's
talk page or in a
deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
Nominator's rationale: Most of the articles in this category have little to nothing to do with the working class. They are neighborhoods in US cities, accents, books etc. There is no
White American working class article and even
white working class is a redirect to a larger article about the working class in the United States.

Mild support for deletion. Although lower-class white culture most probably exists in several forms in the US (and
Poor White may be the topic article you are looking for, at least for one such subculture), the current collection of articles seem to follow a very strange motivation, not unlike a
WP:COATRACK. Editor(s) of this category seem to put great effort in looking for anything "white", even not self-defined as such, and gathering otherwise unrelated content. E.g. articles about specific places or neighbourhoods are being categorized as "white working class" and placed next to elements typical of Southern culture and white supremacist organisations. The focus on Baltimore is also strange. I guess that these different topics are already covered by several pre-existing categories, such as
Category:Culture of the Southern United States,
Category:Stereotypes of white Americans,
Category:White supremacy or
Category:Working class in the United States. The link between them is vague at best. Upmerging anywhere would not be an option, as a severe purge would be needed.

Comment The main article indicates that CEFAS has 4 UK laboratories (which are covered in the main article); one current and various past research ships; 2 laboratories in the Arabian Penninsula. There is scope for populating it with more content; also one for CEFAS people: there is a list called alumni in the main article, though it may be past staff rather than alumni. CEFAS is an executive agency under DEFRA (a UK ministry).

I'm certainly not opposed to recreating the parent category if/when enough content exists to populate it. (Alternatively, I could create a ship subcategory now but it would drain the current category of everything but the main article.)
