October 22

NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:English-language news websites without paywall

Nominator's rationale: Whether a news outlet is behind a paywall or not is WP:NONDEFINING. Paywalls can be region-locked, can allow X number of articles before the gate shuts, and so on. It is too arbitrary and capricious to be used in this way. Zaathras (talk) 21:42, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Baseball pitching

Nominator's rationale: rename per WP:C2C; opposed at speedy a reason I didn't really understand. matches sister category Category:Batting (baseball). Omnis Scientia (talk) 20:57, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Professional wrestling games

Nominator's rationale: This current name is too vague because this category doesn't seem to contain any other type of game. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 20:29, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Counter-Earths

Nominator's rationale: Rename due to none of the articles actually being about a fictional Counter-Earth and only consisting of fictional works. Should become a subcategory of Category:Works by setting with most others removed. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 19:36, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:10000000 (number)

Nominator's rationale: Only page is a redirect, individual category seems useless Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 16:29, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:First Timers bands

Nominator's rationale: WP:OCVENUE. We do not categorize bands for each individual festival or venue they may have played at, and First Timers is not such a highly meganotable special case as to warrant a special exception over and above other festivals. Bearcat (talk) 15:38, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Its function is different to most festivals though, as each band is playing for the first time there, so if they then become notable enough their having started out there is more distinct than a band playing at another festival at some point in their career. There are plenty of categories on here for bands who have released on specific record labels, and I see this as more in line with that. Lewishhh (talk) 15:46, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Agriculture in Saint Kitts and Nevis

Nominator's rationale: Category contains only a redirect and an article about a historic cotton and sugar plantation that closed in the 1970s. Not helpful for navigation. AusLondonder (talk) 12:54, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Female models from Allentown, Pennsylvania

Nominator's rationale: Category with two entries, over-categorisation by occupation and location. Merge to relevant parents. AusLondonder (talk) 11:31, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People from Isiro

Nominator's rationale: Category containing a single article, unhelpful for navigation. AusLondonder (talk) 11:16, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People from Ivangorod

Nominator's rationale: Category containing a single article, unhelpful for navigation. AusLondonder (talk) 11:10, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People from Volosovo

Nominator's rationale: Category containing a single article, unhelpful for navigation. AusLondonder (talk) 11:09, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Rescue of Roma during the Romani genocide

Nominator's rationale: merge, one article each, this is not helpful for navigation. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:31, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment (creator). I hoped this would be populated by others since its creation, but no luck :( I agree this is currently underpopulated and there are no interwikis. I don't know any editor who is interested in and knowledgeable about this to populate this or comment on potential on this except User:Buidhe, perhaps. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:56, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Romani history by country

Nominator's rationale: Redundant category layer Mason (talk) 03:05, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Pacific theatre of World War II US people

Nominator's rationale: parent is American people of World War II, and norm is not "US people" Mason (talk) 02:51, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:East Toowoomba, Queensland

Nominator's rationale: To match renamed article East Toowoomba. AusLondonder (talk) 01:10, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This could be speedied. Mason (talk) 02:51, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No as the article was renamed without a RM, it would likely have been opposed at CFDS. AusLondonder (talk) 08:44, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Suburbs of Maryborough

Nominator's rationale: Category containing only one article, would be better categorised within parent Category:Maryborough, Queensland. AusLondonder (talk) 00:55, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Gaza envelope

Nominator's rationale: More accurate and similar to the main article for the category. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cactinites (talkcontribs)
