Nominator's rationale: The term "Arab-Jewish" simply combines Jewish descent with being from Arab countries. This grouping is loosely based on whether a country is part of the Arab League or mostly speaks Arabic. "Arab-Jewish" isn't a specific ethnicity, unlike groups like
Sephardi or
Mizrahi Jews.

Nominator's rationale: I'm not sure if this is supposed to be an eponoymous category
Francisco Fernández de la Cueva, 2nd Duke of Alburquerque or if the entire family is called Fernández de la Cueva. I think that this category should be renamed to reflect either the family name or merged to Spanish nobility.

There is e.g.
Berenguer de Palou II but still the category wouldn't make too much sense after the County of Barcelona was incorporated in the Crown of Aragon a century earlier. There is also no other category of this kind.

Comment While I support the initiative to harmonize subcategory names, I don’t support the selected naming format and would prefer to change the parent category name before altering the subcategories. The tournament is called the "IIHF Ice Hockey Women's World Championship" in all official IIHF documentation and I strongly feel we should be using that nomenclature, rather than "IIHF Women's World Ice Hockey Championships."
