Comment Is it really a good idea to mishmash three articles about a local institution with a category that contains most only colleges? Well, SMALLCAT points to it, but aren't there reasonable exceptions? --Just N. (talk) 07:37, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Did you forget that a big part of coastal Anatolia has been Greek colonies at that times? Isn't it forbidden to judge from our contemporary view point (frontiers) in historic questions? --Just N. (talk) 07:52, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Greek colonies are not part of Greece, they are just part of Greek colonies. Besides Antioch was established by Seleucis I who ruled large part of the Middle East but not Greece, so it is questionable if we should call Antioch a Greek colony at all (we should call it a Hellenistic city for sure, but that refers to cultural heritage, not to a country).

The result of the discussion was:merge. bibliomaniac15 18:28, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale:Upmerge. Category was created last year without any apparent consensus and limited effort was made to populate it. The criteria for inclusion are hazy because some of the articles mention the word "drama" but most do not. The point is that all Westerns are dramas, although we can accept Comedy Westerns as a distinct offshoot. The target category, from which all 139 drama articles have been moved, contains over 4,000 articles. Trying to move all of those has obviously proved to be an impossible task and the editor concerned has evidently given up. The category is superfluous and presents the project with an unnecessarily difficult maintenance task. Deletion is not an option and an upmerge is needed.

Category:South Vietnamese Vietnam War flying aces
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
Nominator's rationale: The universal defintion of a flying ace is when an aviator shoots down five or more aircraft in aerial combat. During the Vietnam War, there is no instance of South Vietnamese aviators scoring aerial victories against the North Vietnamese Air Force. The two pages in the category are of two mutinous South Vietnamese aviators who were involved in the 1962 South Vietnamese Presidential Palace bombing on 27 February 1962, which aimed to assassinate South Vietnam's President Ngô Đình Diệm. Their actions does not constitute the defintion of a flying ace. Toadboy123 (talk) 10:50, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
