The result of the discussion was: delete. In addition, WP:SALT is recommended here due to the reposted nature of these categories. Concerns about the scope and name of Category:Civilizations should be addressed in a separate CfD. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 ( d ) 12:31, 3 May 2023 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: WP:G4: Category:Modern civilizations (created by Maxaxax) was previously deleted in 2010; Category:Medieval civilization (created by Maxaxax) was deleted last November. Maxaxax argued against deletion, and then a few weeks later created Category:Post-classical civilizations, which essentially filled its role (description: Civilizations of post-classical history (c. 500-1500 CE).), exactly the same timespan commonly attributed to Middle Ages, so indirectly also WP:G4.
Secondary reasons: WP:SUBJECTIVECAT WP:ARBITRARYCAT WP:NPOV. Talk:Civilization identifies civilisations as a Template:Controversial topic. Both categories have been created very recently (September/December 2022‎), and have no main articles. Almost none of the articles in these two categories or their subcategories contain articles that have "civilization"/"civilisation" in their titles, and some like Arab world, Hispanophone, Organisation internationale de la Francophonie etc. don't even mention the word at all. The few that are somewhat regularly called a "civilization"/"civilisation", such as Western civilization (redirects to Western culture) and Russian civilization, are both highly controversial (see e.g. Western Civilization bias, redirects to Eurocentrism, and Russian world#Condemnations). It seems to me these categorisations should be used very carefully as noted by Talk:Civilization, if possible only to articles with "civiliz/sation" in the title, and probably restrict Category:Civilizations by time to pre-1500 and perhaps even pre-500 CE examples ( Category:Pre-Columbian civilizations excluded). A few things such as Role of Christianity in civilization (in post-classic subcat Category:Christendom), and in the modern cat Clash of Civilizations, History of Western civilization, Russian civilization, Category:Theorists on Western civilization‎, Category:Global civilization‎, should be manually upmerged/re-parented to Category:Civilizations.

Found it, it applies to Modern civilizations: Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2010_November_10#Category:Modern_civilizations. Well-spotted. Adding to rationale... Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:15, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Category:Medieval civilization (created by Maxaxax) was deleted last November: Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_October_29#Category:Medieval_civilization. Maxaxax argued against deletion, and then a few weeks later created Category:Post-classical civilizations, which essentially filled its role (description: Civilizations of post-classical history (c. 500-1500 CE)., exactly the same timespan commonly attributed to Middle Ages), so indirectly it's also WP:G4. On a related note, "Category:Neolithic_proto-civilizations" (also created by Maxaxax) was deleted as a poorly-defined, unscientific concept last September. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:25, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
And so many other categories. Just handle these few, then next week go to the parent Category:Civilizations by time ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) by the same user with this as precedent.
William Allen Simpson ( talk) 14:35, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Oh wow! I don't think all of these categories are nonsense, but it is rather suspicious that most (but not all) of them were created by the same user. Yes, let's leave the rest for later. Thanks for being so eagle-eyed, I'm glad you spotted all this. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:42, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
I see that there has been a series of seemingly futile attempts from September 2022 to February 2023 to put "Category:Medieval Islamic world" in all sorts of inappropriate "civilizations" categories that then get deleted. It was done by various users, who did not act in unison, and they don't have to have done it in bad faith, but for some reason, there were attempts at framing the "medieval Islamic world" as a "civilization" in the last quarter of 2022 (perhaps something to do with 2022 FIFA World Cup?). It hasn't been very helpful for defining the scope and trees of the cat. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 16:01, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Always check the logs. Category:Modern civilizations ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs). Category:Global civilization ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) was also by the same Maxaxax user, you should add it to the nomination rather than hidden in the rationale.
William Allen Simpson ( talk) 14:20, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Ah, I hadn't see that yet but as you posted this I discovered a few other things... Do you want me to call out Maxaxax as recreating deleted categories in the rationale itself?
I don't think Category:Global civilization is nonsense per main article Planetary civilization, though we could rename that per WP:C2D and purge it from unrelated content. I would rather keep that separate. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:30, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
I've updated the rationale. WP:G4 is now the primary reason. If I had been more inquisitive, I would have speedied them. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:47, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Selectively merge and delete, too many items do not belong here and with the ones that do belong the categories become too small. Marcocapelle ( talk) 14:53, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
In addition I'd like to raise another type of suggestion, namely to limit Category:Civilizations entirely to a topic category. Per WP:SHAREDNAME we should not categorize just by what happens to be part of the article title, so if we allow a set category with articles with "civilization" in the title we might also allow articles with "world" in the title (e.g. Western world) and it becomes a bit arbitrary where to draw the line. If this is perceived to be a good suggestion then I will nominate Category:Civilizations for renaming to Category:Civilization. Marcocapelle ( talk) 15:59, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Well, at the very least, "civilization" should be in the WP:ALTNAME. We cannot allow a wildgroei of WP:SUBJECTIVECATs and WP:ARBITRARYCATs about a Template:Controversial topic.
The suggestion to have a Category:Civilization (singular) is an interesting one, but perhaps as a parent of Category:Civilizations (plural) for those ancient civilisations that are so titled or altnamed? I wouldn't completely write off the plural category tree just yet. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 18:17, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: WP:G4: Category:Modern civilizations (created by Maxaxax) was previously deleted in 2010; Category:Medieval civilization (created by Maxaxax) was deleted last November. Maxaxax argued against deletion, and then a few weeks later created Category:Post-classical civilizations, which essentially filled its role (description: Civilizations of post-classical history (c. 500-1500 CE).), exactly the same timespan commonly attributed to Middle Ages, so indirectly also WP:G4.
Secondary reasons: WP:SUBJECTIVECAT WP:ARBITRARYCAT WP:NPOV. Talk:Civilization identifies civilisations as a Template:Controversial topic. Both categories have been created very recently (September/December 2022‎), and have no main articles. Almost none of the articles in these two categories or their subcategories contain articles that have "civilization"/"civilisation" in their titles, and some like Arab world, Hispanophone, Organisation internationale de la Francophonie etc. don't even mention the word at all. The few that are somewhat regularly called a "civilization"/"civilisation", such as Western civilization (redirects to Western culture) and Russian civilization, are both highly controversial (see e.g. Western Civilization bias, redirects to Eurocentrism, and Russian world#Condemnations). It seems to me these categorisations should be used very carefully as noted by Talk:Civilization, if possible only to articles with "civiliz/sation" in the title, and probably restrict Category:Civilizations by time to pre-1500 and perhaps even pre-500 CE examples ( Category:Pre-Columbian civilizations excluded). A few things such as Role of Christianity in civilization (in post-classic subcat Category:Christendom), and in the modern cat Clash of Civilizations, History of Western civilization, Russian civilization, Category:Theorists on Western civilization‎, Category:Global civilization‎, should be manually upmerged/re-parented to Category:Civilizations.

Category:Medieval civilization (created by Maxaxax) was deleted last November: Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_October_29#Category:Medieval_civilization. Maxaxax argued against deletion, and then a few weeks later created Category:Post-classical civilizations, which essentially filled its role (description: Civilizations of post-classical history (c. 500-1500 CE)., exactly the same timespan commonly attributed to Middle Ages), so indirectly it's also WP:G4. On a related note, "Category:Neolithic_proto-civilizations" (also created by Maxaxax) was deleted as a poorly-defined, unscientific concept last September. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:25, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
And so many other categories. Just handle these few, then next week go to the parent Category:Civilizations by time ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) by the same user with this as precedent.
William Allen Simpson ( talk) 14:35, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Oh wow! I don't think all of these categories are nonsense, but it is rather suspicious that most (but not all) of them were created by the same user. Yes, let's leave the rest for later. Thanks for being so eagle-eyed, I'm glad you spotted all this. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:42, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
I see that there has been a series of seemingly futile attempts from September 2022 to February 2023 to put "Category:Medieval Islamic world" in all sorts of inappropriate "civilizations" categories that then get deleted. It was done by various users, who did not act in unison, and they don't have to have done it in bad faith, but for some reason, there were attempts at framing the "medieval Islamic world" as a "civilization" in the last quarter of 2022 (perhaps something to do with 2022 FIFA World Cup?). It hasn't been very helpful for defining the scope and trees of the cat. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 16:01, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Always check the logs. Category:Modern civilizations ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs). Category:Global civilization ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) was also by the same Maxaxax user, you should add it to the nomination rather than hidden in the rationale.
William Allen Simpson ( talk) 14:20, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Ah, I hadn't see that yet but as you posted this I discovered a few other things... Do you want me to call out Maxaxax as recreating deleted categories in the rationale itself?
I don't think Category:Global civilization is nonsense per main article Planetary civilization, though we could rename that per WP:C2D and purge it from unrelated content. I would rather keep that separate. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:30, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
I've updated the rationale. WP:G4 is now the primary reason. If I had been more inquisitive, I would have speedied them. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 14:47, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Selectively merge and delete, too many items do not belong here and with the ones that do belong the categories become too small. Marcocapelle ( talk) 14:53, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
In addition I'd like to raise another type of suggestion, namely to limit Category:Civilizations entirely to a topic category. Per WP:SHAREDNAME we should not categorize just by what happens to be part of the article title, so if we allow a set category with articles with "civilization" in the title we might also allow articles with "world" in the title (e.g. Western world) and it becomes a bit arbitrary where to draw the line. If this is perceived to be a good suggestion then I will nominate Category:Civilizations for renaming to Category:Civilization. Marcocapelle ( talk) 15:59, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
Well, at the very least, "civilization" should be in the WP:ALTNAME. We cannot allow a wildgroei of WP:SUBJECTIVECATs and WP:ARBITRARYCATs about a Template:Controversial topic.
The suggestion to have a Category:Civilization (singular) is an interesting one, but perhaps as a parent of Category:Civilizations (plural) for those ancient civilisations that are so titled or altnamed? I wouldn't completely write off the plural category tree just yet. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 18:17, 25 April 2023 (UTC) reply
