C2D: Consistency with main article's name. In the mainspace, [[Oxoanion]] redirects to [[Oxyanion]], and [[Oxoacid]] redirects to [[Oxyacid]]. However, [[Sulfur oxoacid]] breaks this pattern, so combined with the overwhelming number of categories using the oxo- prefix (although two used to use the oxy-prefix), maybe [[Oxyanion]] and [[Oxyacid]] should be changed to use the oxo-prefix.

Speedy deletion |
Proposed deletion |
Speedy renaming or speedy merging of categories may be requested only if they meet a speedy criterion, for example WP:C2D (consistency with main article's name) or WP:C2C (consistency with established category tree names). Please see instructions below.
- Determine which speedy criterion applies
- Tag category with
{{subst:cfr-speedy|New name}}
- List request along with speedy criteria reason under "Current requests" below on this page
Please note that a speedy request must state which of the narrowly defined criteria strictly applies. Hence, any other non-speedy criteria, even "common sense" or "obvious", may be suitable points but only at a full discussion at WP:Categories for discussion.
Request may take 48 hours to process after listing if there are no objections. This delay allows other users to review the request to ensure that it meets the speedy criteria for speedy renaming or merging, and to raise objections to the proposed change.
Categories that qualify for speedy deletion (per Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, e.g. "patent nonsense", "recreation") can be tagged with the regular speedy tags, such as {{db|reason}}
with no required delay. Empty categories can be deleted if they remain empty 7 days after tagging with {{db-empty}}. Renaming under C2E can also be processed instantly as it is a variation on G7.
Contested speedy requests become stale, and can be un-tagged and de-listed after 7 days of inactivity. Optionally, if the discussion may be useful for future reference, it may be copied to the category talk page, with a section heading and {{moved discussion from|[[WP:CFDS]]|2=~~~~}}
. If the nominator wants to continue the process, it may be requested regularly at WP:Categories for discussion (CfD) in accordance with its instructions.
Speedy criteria
The category-specific criteria for speedy renaming, or merging are strictly limited to:
C2A: Typographic and spelling fixes
- Correction of spelling errors and capitalization fixes. Differences between British and American spelling (e.g. Harbours → Harbors) are not considered errors; however if the convention of the relevant category tree is to use one form over the other then a rename may be appropriate under C2C. If both spellings exist as otherwise-identical category names, they should be merged.
- Appropriate conversion of hyphens into en dashes or vice versa (e.g. Category:Canada-Russia relations → Category:Canada–Russia relations).
C2B: Consistency with established Wikipedia naming conventions and practices
- Expanding abbreviated country names (e.g. U.S. → United States).
- Disambiguation fixes from an unqualified name (e.g. Category:Washington → Category:Washington (state) or Category:Washington, D.C.).
C2C: Consistency with established category tree names
Bringing a category into line with established naming conventions for that category tree, or into line with the various "x by y", "x of y", or "x in y" categorization conventions specified at Wikipedia:Category names
- This should be used only where there is no room for doubt that the category in question is being used for the standard purpose instead of being a potential subcategory.
- This criterion should be applied only when there is no ambiguity or doubt over the existence of a category naming convention. Such a convention must be well defined and must be overwhelmingly used within the tree. If this is not the case then the category in question must be brought forward to a full Cfd nomination.
- This criterion will not apply in cases where the category tree observes distinctions in local usage (e.g. Category:Transportation in the United States and Category:Transport in the United Kingdom).
C2D: Consistency with main article's name
- Renaming a topic category to match its eponymous page (e.g. Category:The Beatles and The Beatles).
- This applies only if the related page's current name (and by extension, the proposed name for the category) is unambiguous, and uncontroversial – either because of longstanding stability at that particular name, or because the page was just moved (i) after a page move discussion resulted in explicit consensus to rename, or (ii) unilaterally to reflect an official renaming which is verified by one or more citations (provided in the nomination). If the page names are controversial or ambiguous in any way, then this criterion does not apply, even if an article is the primary topic of its name.
- This criterion also does not apply if there is any ongoing discussion about the name of the page or category, or if there has been a recent discussion concerning any of the pages that resulted in a no consensus result.
C2E: Author request
- This criterion applies only if the author of a category requests or agrees to renaming within six months of creating the category.
- The criterion does not apply if other editors have populated or changed the category since it was created. "Other editors" includes bots that populated the category, but excludes an editor working with the author on the renaming.
Admin instructions
When handling the listings:
- Make sure that the listing meets one of the above criteria.
- With the exception of C2E, make sure that it was both listed and tagged at least 48 hours previously.
- Make sure that there are no oppositions to the listing; if there is a discussion, check if the opposing user(s) ended up withdrawing the opposition(s).
If the listing meets these criteria, simply have the category renamed - follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Administrator instructions, in the section "If the decision is Delete, Merge, or Rename"; to list it for the bots, use the Speedy moves section.
Applying speedy criteria in full discussions
- A nomination to merge or rename, brought forward as a full CfD, may be speedily closed if the closing administrator is satisfied that:
- The nomination clearly falls within the scope of one of the criteria listed here, and
- No objections have been made within 48 hours of the initial nomination.
- If both these conditions are satisfied, the closure will be regarded as having been as a result of a speedy nomination. If any objections have been raised then the CfD nomination will remain in place for the usual 7-day discussion period, to be decided in accordance with expressed consensus.
Add requests for speedy renaming and merging here
If the category and desired change do not match one of the criteria mentioned in C2, do not list it here. Instead, list it in the main CFD section.
If you are in any doubt as to whether it qualifies, do not list it here.
Use the following format on a new line at the beginning of the list:
* [[:Category:old name]] to [[:Category:new name]] – Reason ~~~~
This will sign and datestamp an entry automatically.
Remember to tag the category with: {{subst:Cfr-speedy|New name}}
A request may be completed if it is more than 48 hours old; that is, if the time stamp shown is earlier than 04:20, 4 June 2024 (UTC). Currently, there are 111 open requests (. )

C2D: Consistency with main article's name. In the mainspace, Oxoanion redirects to Oxyanion, and Oxoacid redirects to Oxyacid. However, Sulfur oxoacid breaks this pattern, so combined with the overwhelming number of categories using the oxo- prefix (although two used to use the oxy-prefix), maybe Oxyanion and Oxyacid should be changed to use the oxo-prefix.

- Oppose speedy - I don't believe C2D applies, since the article was moved to its current name just last month, and not as a result of a page move discussion. -- Black Falcon (talk) 04:22, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

- That's a good question. I guess it comes down to whether this is a topic category about the topic of springs, a set category that contains examples of springs (technically, C2D would not apply), or a set-and-topic category. -- Black Falcon (talk) 23:24, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

Proposed change also applies to the following subcategories: Zanhe (talk) 08:51, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

- Oppose as proposed The main article is Al-Adl cemetery, so this should be renamed to Category:Burials at Al-Adl cemetery. Armbrust The Homunculus 08:01, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oops. Thanks. Added hyphen. As I think about it, and after editing the article to be internally consistent, there may also be an issue with more properly using lower-case 'al' in sentence case (i.e., Category:Burials at al-Adl cemetery), the previous discussion of which will take a while to find. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 14:14, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
- @AlanM1 and Armbrust: Should it perhaps be Category:Burials at al-Adl cemetery, given the case used in the lead sentence of the article? -- Black Falcon (talk) 16:59, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose as proposed The main article is Al-Adl cemetery, so this should be renamed to Category:Burials at Al-Adl cemetery. Armbrust The Homunculus 08:01, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
- Category:Burials at Al Oud Cemetery to Category:Burials at Al Oud cemetery – C2D: The article for the cemetery is at Al Oud cemetery (lower-case 'c'). I just added the redirect from the upper-case version, and there was no history of it being there previously. I checked a couple of the sources cited and they confirm lower-case. Also, the only other cemetery with a name of the same form at Category:Cemeteries in Saudi Arabia, Al-Adl cemetery, is also lower-case (I'm asking to move Category:Burials at Al Adl Cemetery as well.

- Only recently renamed and without an RM. So oppose speedy until someone presents reliable sources of the recent name change. Armbrust The Homunculus 05:21, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- Category:WikiProject Republic of Macedonia to Category:WikiProject Republic of North Macedonia – C2D: Official name changed, per the Prespa agreement. All other related categories should be renamed to this regard as well. HapHaxion (talk / contribs) 20:36, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose the project is renamed to Wikipedia:WikiProject North Macedonia. Matthew hk (talk) 21:06, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose. The project is back at Wikipedia:WikiProject Republic of Macedonia, so this is clearly not an uncontroversial move. -- Black Falcon (talk) 05:03, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
Oppose speedy. @HapHaxion: This is probably a good move, but it would be much better to have a full discussion at WP:CFD to tease out all issues, as as done at WP:CFD 2018 November 5#Swaziland with Swaziland/Eswatini. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:19, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

- Not so comfortable with this one, given potential ambiguity with other topics—see Hulk (disambiguation). Also, @JDDJS: I see that you have tagged the subcats, but please also list them here so they can be considered and/or processed. Thanks, -- Black Falcon (talk) 19:45, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

- Category:Ship's doctors to Category:Ships' doctors – C2A. Doctors of more than one ship. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:53, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- There is a larger issue here—namely, that the distinction between this category (surgeons on civilian vessels) and Category:Naval surgeons (surgeons on military vessels) seems contrived, considering ship's doctor and naval surgeon are synonymous. I am not sure how best to resolve it but wanted to point it out. -- Black Falcon (talk) 19:53, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- Category:Local councils in Israel to Category:Local councils (Israel) – C2D per Local council (Israel). The "in Israel" is also an NPOV issue as several local councils are in the West Bank Number 57 09:27, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose speedy - looking at the parent category Category:Towns by country, they are all named "<something> in <country>". No reason for disambiguation here where natural disambiguation works better. Any NPOV issue should be solved as "(Israel)" does not solve it. --Gonnym (talk) 14:30, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

- Oppose speedy - looking at the parent category Category:Mayors by country and its sub-categories, they are named "Mayors of <> in <place>". No reason for disambiguation here where natural disambiguation works better. --Gonnym (talk) 14:30, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

- Corrected above, my oversight. Thanks! UnitedStatesian (talk) 22:05, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
- @UnitedStatesian and Armbrust: I think we need to do more with this category. It is a subcategory of Category:Company templates and Category:United States company templates—if it remains in either category, it needs to be removed from one or the other, and then renamed to reflect the appropriate scope, e.g. Category:Company chief executive officer templates ("CEO" is not used only in a business/company setting). -- Black Falcon (talk) 18:12, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

- Good question, as Category:Social movements includes many sub-cats called "X movement" as well as many called "Y movements". The main article for the first one is Opposition to pornography and refers to "Anti-pornography movements", so I do not see a clear speedy rationale for that one. However, the second nomination is valid under WP:C2D, as the lead article is Anti-abortion movement. – Fayenatic London 12:24, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
- Regarding the Anti-pornography category, I think singular is preferable because any "sub-movements" (to coin a phrase) are part of the overall Anti-pornography movement. The mere fact that the article refers to "movements" doesn't mean they should be regarded as separate and distinct from the overall movement. Anomalous+0 (talk) 13:44, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

I've inquired about the terminology at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Royalty and Nobility#Royal house or family?. -- Black Falcon (talk) 05:14, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose speedy Subcategory of Category:Royal families of Sweden. Armbrust The Homunculus 17:32, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
- Category:Fictional characters with energy manipulation powers to Category:Fictional characters with energy abilities – C2c, in agreement with many subcategories of Category:Fictional characters by superhuman feature or ability; even those that do not do not follow this naming convention. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 11:10, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
- Partial oppose. Category:Fictional characters with energy-manipulation abilities would be a better name. Not only does it follow similar categories, but it also clarifies its subject. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 05:45, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
- Or perhaps Category:Fictional characters who can manipulate energy... as you noted, there does not seem to be an accepted convention in Category:Fictional characters by superhuman feature or ability. Either way, I think this is not straightforward enough for CFD/S; a full nomination would be more suited. -- Black Falcon (talk) 19:10, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

- Category:Arthurian games to Category:Games based on Arthurian legends – C2C per Category:Works based on Arthurian legends. This will be clearer, despite the majority of siblings being named "Arthurian [media]". – Fayenatic London 22:40, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
- @Fayenatic london: Oppose speedy, as the majority of categories in Category:Works based on Arthurian legends follow the Arthurian {works} format. -- Black Falcon (talk) 17:56, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

- Category:Right-Wing Militia to Category:Right-wing militias – Correct capitalization & pluralize. Anomalous+0 (talk) 13:27, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- I think this category needs more than just technical fixes. For example, it is not clear from either name that the category is specific to the United States. Category:Right-wing militia organizations in the United States might be better, but I am not sure if that is clear-cut enough for speedy renaming. -- Black Falcon (talk) 18:24, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

- Category:Standardized tests for Medicine to Category:Standardized tests for admission to medical school – C2B: Title is misleading. These tests are for students, not patients. Rathfelder (talk) 08:24, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose speedy That's may be right, but being misleading isn't part of any speedy renaming criterion. Armbrust The Homunculus 13:31, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

- Weak oppose - Oman has strong historical ties to the UK, so the parent should probably be renamed to Category:Organisations based in Oman. -- Black Falcon (talk) 20:34, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
- I have started a discussion to rename the parent. If that change does not go through, then this one can proceed. -- Black Falcon (talk) 05:24, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

- Oppose speedy for the 3 above. These are subcategories of both Category:History of Catholicism in Europe by country and Category:History of the Catholic Church by country. The two category trees seem somewhat duplicative, but in any case I think these warrant a full discussion, especially given the other categories in Category:History of Catholicism in Europe by country. -- Black Falcon (talk) 04:50, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
