I have no idea what a contributor is in terms of a league so merging to a tree which exists makes sense to me.-- User:Namiba 04:38, 20 May 2024 (UTC) reply
Merge per nom. @ Pppery, @ Smasongarrison, basically these people were baseball executives who were pushing for the formation of the Continental League. But I don't think one can be considered a contributor to something that never existed. The more appropriate term would be "advocators", IMO. Omnis Scientia ( talk) 11:37, 20 May 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Marcocapelle and Omnis Scientia: the first merge target of Category:Murdered American gangsters of Sicilian descent is the other category that was merged after this discussion. Do you wish to merge Category:Murdered American gangsters of Sicilian descent to Category:Murdered American gangsters of Italian descent (the second merge target) and Category:People of Sicilian descent?

Nominator's rationale: Not sure what the best title for this would be so open for other alternatives. This is obviously not albums about Metropolis nor about Metropolis (1927 film), but is related to albums by Janelle Monáe which form some kind of series (and currently has no article and no redirect as far as I can tell).

The result of the discussion was: keep. (Noting nom said never mind.) (non-admin closure) House Blaster ( talk · he/him) 20:30, 26 May 2024 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Games with randomly-generated maps is nothing special, it's not even that hard to add this into your game. Almost every RTS, turn-based strategy, city-builder, and open-world survival game has had it. And some of haven't even been listed. QuantumFoam66 ( talk) 03:26, 19 May 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Oppose Don't see a cohesive argument for why this category and its accompanying list are non-defining. Procedural generation is not so common as to be totally ubiquitous in games. Also, you probably should have nominated the list for deletion before the category if you really think so. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ) 23:14, 19 May 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Lean oppose per Zxcvbnm because there is a main article: List of games using procedural generation (maybe it needs to add the word "video" in the title, but that's a detail). It's difficult to justify deleting the category while keeping the list. Unless there are definitional or semantic issues that require WP:V and thus listification of the whole category, I think we should keep it. NLeeuw ( talk) 21:53, 20 May 2024 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: delete ( non-admin closure) House Blaster ( talk · he/him) 20:29, 26 May 2024 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale The term "Carib" is ambiguous as it can be used to refer to either the Kalinago (Island Caribs) or the Kalina (Mainland Caribs). Despite both being commonly called "Caribs", the Kalinago and the Kalina are different peoples with different languages and cultures. There isn't a single "Carib" group encompassing both the Kalina and Kalinago. Bohemian Baltimore ( talk) 13:55, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: No need for parent category, see below. Once the parent category Category:Continental League is deleted, there is no place for this category to be and there is no existing scheme of Category:Contributors by baseball league.Justin (koavf)TCM 22:03, 1 May 2024 (UTC) reply

I have no idea what a contributor is in terms of a league so merging to a tree which exists makes sense to me.-- User:Namiba 04:38, 20 May 2024 (UTC) reply
Merge per nom. @ Pppery, @ Smasongarrison, basically these people were baseball executives who were pushing for the formation of the Continental League. But I don't think one can be considered a contributor to something that never existed. The more appropriate term would be "advocators", IMO. Omnis Scientia ( talk) 11:37, 20 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: Not sure what the best title for this would be so open for other alternatives. This is obviously not albums about Metropolis nor about Metropolis (1927 film), but is related to albums by Janelle Monáe which form some kind of series (and currently has no article and no redirect as far as I can tell).

Nominator's rationale: Games with randomly-generated maps is nothing special, it's not even that hard to add this into your game. Almost every RTS, turn-based strategy, city-builder, and open-world survival game has had it. And some of haven't even been listed. QuantumFoam66 ( talk) 03:26, 19 May 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Oppose Don't see a cohesive argument for why this category and its accompanying list are non-defining. Procedural generation is not so common as to be totally ubiquitous in games. Also, you probably should have nominated the list for deletion before the category if you really think so. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ) 23:14, 19 May 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Lean oppose per Zxcvbnm because there is a main article: List of games using procedural generation (maybe it needs to add the word "video" in the title, but that's a detail). It's difficult to justify deleting the category while keeping the list. Unless there are definitional or semantic issues that require WP:V and thus listification of the whole category, I think we should keep it. NLeeuw ( talk) 21:53, 20 May 2024 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: delete ( non-admin closure) House Blaster ( talk · he/him) 20:29, 26 May 2024 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale The term "Carib" is ambiguous as it can be used to refer to either the Kalinago (Island Caribs) or the Kalina (Mainland Caribs). Despite both being commonly called "Caribs", the Kalinago and the Kalina are different peoples with different languages and cultures. There isn't a single "Carib" group encompassing both the Kalina and Kalinago. Bohemian Baltimore ( talk) 13:55, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply
