Categories may be listed here if they fall under the criteria specified below. Deletion and de-listing may occur after 48 hours if there are no objections. They must be tagged with {{subst:cfr-speedy|newname}} so that users of the categories are aware of the proposal. This delay is to allow for objections over correct spelling, etc. to be made and to ensure that items are not processed that do not meet the criteria.
Categories that qualify for speedy deletion (per Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, e.g. "patent nonsense", "recreation", categories that have been empty for four days) can be tagged with the regular speedy tags, such as {{db|reason}}, and no delay is required for these. Renaming under C2E can also be processed instantly, as it is a variation on G7.
Contested requests can be removed from this list after 48 hours. If the nominator wants to continue the process they need to submit the request as a regular CfD using the instructions there.
Speedy criteria
The category-specific criteria for speedy deletion, renaming, or merging are strictly limited to: From 20 November 2009 to 4 December 2013 the policy page Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion transcluded the criteria for deletion of categories from a discussion page instead of having them directly coded in the policy page. To see the history of that section of the speedy deletion policy during that period, see the editing history of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy/Criteria. For current discussion page for the same material see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy#Speedy criteria.
- 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 above, 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.

- Oppose speedy. I support this renaming, but it should not be speedied.
The current name was created at a discussion closed only 4 weeks ago CfD 2013 January 3, and should not be overturned without a further discussion.
Related categories are the subject of still-open discussions at CfD January 17 and CfD January 26, so there is not at present a stable convention. This "Foo hurlers" format was the clear preference in a recently-closed dispute-resolution process at [Wikipedia_talk:GAA#Proposal_3]] (permalink), and I expect that a full CFD discussion will reach the same conclusion. However, there is no deadline, so let's do this in order. First, the January 17 and January 26 CFDs should be closed ... and then we can have a full discussion on this one. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:14, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

- Oppose as speedy. In the cases I have checked, none of the sibling categories follow the proposed format, so that is not a convention.
The naming of these categories is a bit of a mess, and the proposal here may be a good idea ... but there are several conflicting conventions here, and it needs a full discussion. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:07, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

- Oppose: as Gaelic football, hurling and all other Gaelic sports are organised throughout Ireland on a 32-county and four-province basis, the "Republic of Ireland" and "Northern Ireland" subdivisions are meaningless and all should be merged into Ireland category and Ulster/Munster/Leinster/Connacht subcategories. Brocach (talk) 22:26, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
- Perhaps this should be discussed? This oppose addresses a different issue entirely. The proposal still stands as the only thing objected to was the Republic of Ireland/Northern Ireland issue, which had nothing to do with this. Merge them all together into Category:Gaelic Athletic Association clubs in Ireland if that's what works. --86.40.100.59 (talk) 02:15, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
- None of this has anything to do with the speedy criteria, and it is a blatant abuse of process to try making such controversial moves through the speedy process. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:50, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
- Comment: Isn't everyone missing the point here? This proposal isn't about altering the present geographic descriptions at all, and is therefore not in the least controversial. Such a move proposal would be for a different time and place. All this proposal is seeking to do is get rid of the by county disambiguation in the category titles purely on the basis that there isn't a category for any of them to be disambiguated from. There is therefore no point in having the category at Category:Gaelic Athletic Association clubs in XXX by county, when they can be accommodated at Category:Gaelic Athletic Association clubs in XXX without any problem. Skinsmoke (talk) 09:18, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
- Reply. Skinsmoke, speedy renaming of categories is restricted to a few narrow criteria which have been so widely accepted for so long that they are not controversial. Whether or not anyone things these proposals are good is not relevant here, they are ineligible for speedy renaming for 2 reasons: a) because they don't meet the speedy criteria, and b) because they have been objected to. So the proposal requires a full discussion.
Note that some of these categories are already the subject of a full discussion at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2013 February 1#Hurling_clubs. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:41, 4 February 2013 (UTC)- That's no excuse for such a personal attack as the "blatant abuse of process to try making such controversial moves" comment. Everyone (bar Skinsmoke) is missing the point here. As well as this, the oppose doesn't even address the content of the nomination, instead introducing an entirely different issue. It still remains that none of the others have "by county" or "by state", or whichever is the equivalent, in their titles. But so be it, if such a simple thing provokes such an outraged response then it should be discussed. --86.40.109.229 (talk) 22:00, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
- Sadly, neither Skimsoke nor the IP who alleges "personal attack" seem to have even looked at the parents of the nominated categories. They are all sub-cats of Category:Sport in Northern Ireland by county or Category:Sport in the Republic of Ireland by county, and follow the conventions of those category trees.
- The IP expresses atonishment about "such a simple thing". Does it get any simpler than looking at a category page before posting? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:51, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

See the section "Constitutional Issues" on page 3, subsections (v) and (vi).

- Oppose speedy this becomes ambiguous since multiple countries have national guards with land components. -- 65.92.180.137 (talk) 17:37, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose, agree that it is too ambiguous. Possibly use Army National Guard of the United States instead, including those below. --Funandtrvl (talk) 18:11, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

- Oppose "Literary works by writer" is redundant (a writer clearly produces literary works, so it is unnecessary to specify "literary"). It should be Category:Works by French writers, Category:Works by Ancient Greek writers. I have gathered all related categories in Category:Works by writer nationality.

- Category:Video Games set in Crusaders to Category:Crusade video games – Current name has bad grammar. New name follows typical naming for war fiction categories (Category:Crusades films, Category:World War II video games) Mika1h (talk) 11:52, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
- Query shouldn't this be Category:Video games about the Crusades or Category:Video games set in the Crusades per Category:Works about the Crusades? "Crusade video games" looks odd and is ambiguous (are they about the Children's Crusade? Or, worse for ambiguity, Crusade (TV series)?) - The Bushranger One ping only 15:42, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

- Oppose Metro Vancouver lead starts "is the brand name[3] of the political body", whereas Greater Vancouver lead is a geographic region "roughly coterminous" with GVRD, which is one of the "corporate entities" composing Metro vancouver. It is not clear to me that a brand name for a local governing body, is appropriate as a name for geography or 'in' or 'people from' categories. Also quoting the Metro article: "The name of the physical area governed by the organization remains the Greater Vancouver Regional District." --Qetuth (talk) 02:29, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
