- Nominator's rationale: This category should probably be renamed "America East Conference men's basketball tournament." It needs to be harmonized with other America East Conference tournament categories and articles in Category:America East Conference tournaments. I would make the change myself but all the articles in the category since the 1997 edition should also be renamed to "YYYY America East Conference men's basketball tournament" and I wouldn't want to do a mass move like that without discussing it first.

- Comment how is "Roman" defined in this category, it is only for Ancient Rome? Or does it cover other periods, such as Medieval Rome, Papal States Rome, pre-Modern Rome (pre-Garibaldi), etc? -- 64.229.90.199 ( talk) 06:06, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
- Good question, but in practice they are all about ancient Rome. Marcocapelle ( talk) 08:27, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
- Support — parent is
Category:Classical scholars by discipline, so this won't cover Medieval Rome, etc. I've already upmerged the parent categories, too.
