The result of the debate was '''merge as nominated''' --[[User:Kbdank71|Kbdank71]] 15:08, 31 October 2005 (UTC) |

'''Merge'''. They both cover largely the same topic, and WikiProjects is a fair bit smaller than Subject-specific. |

Note that [[Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2005_October_14#Category:Notability_and_inclusion_guidelines_for_WikiProjects_and_Category:Subject-specific_notability_criteria|a similar vote]] was recently held to merge this into the parent category. I'm inexperienced and am not sure if this is the right thing to do, but I'm posting this in good faith because this is a vote for a different action (merge to sister rather than to parent).

Revision as of 15:08, 31 October 2005
October 22
Category:Republic of Ireland rugby stadiums to Category:Rugby union stadiums in Ireland
1) Rugby and rugby union aren't the same 2) Foo in X seems to be the consensus standard rather than Xish Foo 3) Rugby union is played on an all-Ireland basis, an island of Ireland category is more useful.GordyB 19:34, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
- rename. see also similar nomination a few days below under "New Zealand rugby union stadiums". Grutness...wha? 22:54, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. With one caveat: are all the stadiums/a definitely union ones? -Splashtalk 01:53, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
Category:Sri Lankan Diaspora
At the very least rename as this title seems pretty loaded. Gamaliel 17:42, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
- Not knowing much of such things, why is 'diaspora' a loaded term? On the assumption that the nom is correct, and that this cat cannot be populated with more than 2 articles if the nom is other than correct, delete. -Splashtalk 01:53, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
Keep - It has every right to be here. prashanthns
- Delete per Splash (only two articles). I don't think "diaspora" is a loaded term, but if kept it should be speedy renamed for capitalization. siafu 19:23, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and rename as Sri Lankan diaspora. — Instantnood 11:26, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
Category:Newspapers in Serbia and Montenegro to Category:Serbian-Montenegrin newspapers
Rename. I propose the new name to standardise all the subcategories under the main Category:Newspapers by country. Please, also consider this posibility: Serbian and Montenegrin newspapers. Thanks. Cacuija (my talk) 17:31, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment, would this fall under a non-universally-applicable, as per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (categories): Some states do not posess unambiguous (i.e. Democratic Republic of Congo) or universally-applicable (i.e. Bosnia and Herzegovina) adjectives. In these circumstances, users should use the format "Foo of country", such as Category:Society of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Category:Art of Bosnia and Herzegovina.?(It appears I forgot to sign this comment, apologies. Steve block talk 11:53, 31 October 2005 (UTC))
- Keep. Indeed it does fall under the above rule, being as it is one of the two cited examples. siafu 19:29, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, although I thought it wasn't one of the examples. Steve block talk 11:53, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
Category:Newspapers of Bosnia and Herzegovina to Category:Bosnian-Herzegovinian newspapers
Rename. I propose the new name to standardise all the subcategories under the main Category:Newspapers by country. Please, also consider this posibility: Bosnian and Herzegovinian newspapers. Thanks. Cacuija (my talk) 17:31, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (categories): Some states do not posess unambiguous (i.e. Democratic Republic of Congo) or universally-applicable (i.e. Bosnia and Herzegovina) adjectives. In these circumstances, users should use the format "Foo of country", such as Category:Society of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Category:Art of Bosnia and Herzegovina.(It appears I forgot to sign this comment, apologies. Steve block talk 11:51, 31 October 2005 (UTC))
- oppose. use noun not adjective for countries. what would german newspapers be? (german speaking or from Germany?)Tobias Conradi (Talk) 05:21, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
Category:Newspapers in Bangladesh to Category:Bangladeshi newspapers
Rename. I propose the new name to standarise all the subcategories under the main Category:Newspapers by country. Thanks. Cacuija (my talk) 16:47, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
- oppose, see bonsnia. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 05:22, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
