Nominator's rationale: Alternative proposed in Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2020 December 1#Category:Bosnian Genocide deniers, closer suggested a group rename as a separate proposal. Having the event name first can cause confusion about the nationality of the deniers, rather than the ethnicity of the victims.

  • Rename per nom Laurel Lodged ( talk) 18:26, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • rename The current name is ambiguous enough that it might be thought to refer to the ethnicity of the person who denies the genocide. In this case it is a specific genocide that is being denied, the ethnicity/nationality of the people doing the denying is not relevant to the category. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 19:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I still think these are OPINIONCATs and ought to be deleted. Among the issues presented is at what point deniers deny. Presumably, by pleading not guilty in various trials, all issues including whether the genocide took place, whether it was a genocide even if it did, etc., are all denied by the defendants and thus put in issue. Some people are, no doubt, notable for belonging to groups espousing denial of these events, and are better categorized there than here; and these need to be purged of people who are perpetrators (also better categorized elsewhere).

When foreign leaders visit the Republic of China/Taiwan, or vice versa, the Order of the Cloud and Banner is given out as souvenir to commemorate the visit. Dwight D. Eisenhower, Timofey Khryukin, and Andrew Cunningham, 1st Viscount Cunningham of Hyndhope, are not remotely defined by this award. (The award has also been given to Chinese generals, all of whom are already well categorized somewhere under Category:Chinese generals.)

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING ( WP:OCAWARD)
The Morgan Prize is a US$1,200 prize for an undergraduate students doing research in mathematics and I'm sure the award is initially defining for those promising young students. But Wikipedia doesn't have articles on promising young students. By the time these people are notable, the award is no longer defining and only gets mentioned in passing in the education or honours section, for example with Manjul Bhargava, Ciprian Manolescu or any other article you want to click on. The current contents are already listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 00:43, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply

Nominator's rationale: I believe an album's recording studio is WP:NOTDEFINING. This nomination was inspired by Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of recordings made at Abbey Road Studios. This is also a test case, as there are a lot of album location categories. Clarityfiend ( talk) 00:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I clicked on several of these and, in general, it's mentioned in the infobox and nowhere else. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 00:48, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete I completely agree that where an album was recorded is a non-defining aspect of the album. I believe the creation of this category was how the scheme developed in the first place. Worth noting in the article when properly sourced, but not just because an album was recorded at such-and-such a location. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars Talk to me 00:58, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - normally in this circumstance I'd say listify. Certainly Wikipedia could do with one or the other, either list or category, and IMO a list is the more obvious thing to have. I think this nomination and the one at AFD are confounding each other. Grutness... wha? 02:57, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - this is almost a textbook case of NOTDEFINING, in my view Spiderone 19:33, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete in this Instance If there is a unique personality from this studio, it doesn't seem to be conveyed in the articles. I don't assume every recording studio is non-defining as some had distinct sounds or genres but this one seems like a general purpose rental. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 23:03, 16 December 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: rename. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:18, 18 December 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Alternative proposed in Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2020 December 1#Category:Bosnian Genocide deniers, closer suggested a group rename as a separate proposal. Having the event name first can cause confusion about the nationality of the deniers, rather than the ethnicity of the victims.

  • Rename per nom, less ambiguous. Marcocapelle ( talk) 18:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Rename per nom Laurel Lodged ( talk) 18:26, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • rename The current name is ambiguous enough that it might be thought to refer to the ethnicity of the person who denies the genocide. In this case it is a specific genocide that is being denied, the ethnicity/nationality of the people doing the denying is not relevant to the category. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 19:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I still think these are OPINIONCATs and ought to be deleted. Among the issues presented is at what point deniers deny. Presumably, by pleading not guilty in various trials, all issues including whether the genocide took place, whether it was a genocide even if it did, etc., are all denied by the defendants and thus put in issue. Some people are, no doubt, notable for belonging to groups espousing denial of these events, and are better categorized there than here; and these need to be purged of people who are perpetrators (also better categorized elsewhere).

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING ( WP:PERFCAT, WP:OVERLAPCAT and WP:OCAWARD)
When foreign leaders visit the Republic of China/Taiwan, or vice versa, the Order of the Cloud and Banner is given out as souvenir to commemorate the visit. Dwight D. Eisenhower, Timofey Khryukin, and Andrew Cunningham, 1st Viscount Cunningham of Hyndhope, are not remotely defined by this award. (The award has also been given to Chinese generals, all of whom are already well categorized somewhere under Category:Chinese generals.) This award doesn't seem defining to either group and the recipients are now all listified here in the main article. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 00:43, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: delete. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:14, 18 December 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING ( WP:OCAWARD)
The Morgan Prize is a US$1,200 prize for an undergraduate students doing research in mathematics and I'm sure the award is initially defining for those promising young students. But Wikipedia doesn't have articles on promising young students. By the time these people are notable, the award is no longer defining and only gets mentioned in passing in the education or honours section, for example with Manjul Bhargava, Ciprian Manolescu or any other article you want to click on. The current contents are already listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 00:43, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 10:46, 19 December 2020 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: I believe an album's recording studio is WP:NOTDEFINING. This nomination was inspired by Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of recordings made at Abbey Road Studios. This is also a test case, as there are a lot of album location categories. Clarityfiend ( talk) 00:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I clicked on several of these and, in general, it's mentioned in the infobox and nowhere else. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 00:48, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete I completely agree that where an album was recorded is a non-defining aspect of the album. I believe the creation of this category was how the scheme developed in the first place. Worth noting in the article when properly sourced, but not just because an album was recorded at such-and-such a location. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars Talk to me 00:58, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - normally in this circumstance I'd say listify. Certainly Wikipedia could do with one or the other, either list or category, and IMO a list is the more obvious thing to have. I think this nomination and the one at AFD are confounding each other. Grutness... wha? 02:57, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - this is almost a textbook case of NOTDEFINING, in my view Spiderone 19:33, 10 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Oppose b/c the sound engineering personalities & machines and therefor the chosen studio is clearly defining for an album's quality! I'm a member of WikiProject Record Labels. -- Just N. ( talk) 19:29, 16 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete in this Instance If there is a unique personality from this studio, it doesn't seem to be conveyed in the articles. I don't assume every recording studio is non-defining as some had distinct sounds or genres but this one seems like a general purpose rental. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 23:03, 16 December 2020 (UTC) reply
