Nominator's rationale: I am resolving an issue which prevents the {{Vital article}} template being placed within the {{WikiProject banner shell}}. Currently the class is not being inherited correctly, and to fix this I need to rename these categories to the more standing naming scheme for quality assessment categories. I have notified the project
here and there is no opposition. There are quite a lot of categories which need to be renamed. I will try to list them all here, but not sure if I will get them all tagged. — Martin (

Nominator's rationale:split, it escapes me why characters with a gendered occupation are ghettoized in a third category.
Marcocapelle (

Split per nom. I removed Category:Fictional engineers though, which had nothing to do there (it even has its own gendered child
Category:Fictional female engineers). Also, a lot of categories are not for gendered occupations, but occupations where different words are used for male and female similar or equivalent roles: kings/queens, princes/princesses, monks/nuns, valets/butlers/maids etc.
Place Clichy (

Split per nom. I am not even sure why some of these are listed (for instance, I am removing Fictional cheerleaders, which is not gendered).

Nominator's rationale: Just 2 articles there (
Racial literacy and

Category:Sociolinguistics or
Category:Ethnolinguistics, but looking at both articles it seems to me that they are both already in the best categories for each of them, this one removed.
