The result of the debate was Keep Category:Spain road stubs, Upmerge Category:Portugal road stubs. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 09:11, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Upmerge {{Spain-road-stub}} and {{Portugal-road-stub}} to their respective parent categories (Europe road stubs for both and then the respective country stub categories) and delete the categories. Both are way undersized (six and two articles) and not likely to reach sixty at any point soon. Dana boomer (talk) 18:09, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This category is severely undersized, and should be upmerged. My suggestion would be to upmerge it to Category:Kiev Oblast geography stubs which is not currently its parent cat, but is the next largest government division. This would bring the parent cat to just under 100 articles. Dana boomer (talk) 23:34, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:SavanesCI geography stubs to Category:Savanes, Côte d'Ivoire, geography stubs
Nominator's rationale: Rename. While SavanesCI works fine for the template, we typically use full English for the category titles. Template title was approved, but category name was not requested.

More accurate and more inclusive title (mentioned after the fact over at WP:WSS/P). Possibly speediable, since I'm the only editor of this category, but I'm running it through here just in case. It would also be worth moving the template from {{art-documentary-film-stub}} to {{arts-documentary-film-stub}} (currently a redirect) and deleting the original name, to allow for the possibility of a future art-specific type.

In both cases, upmerging should be to both the larger Catalan category and to the equivalent Spanish category (e.g., Catalonia-struct-stub to both Category:Catalonia stubs and Category:Spanish building and structure stubs). Other than that, I agree - these don't yet need separate categories. Grutness...wha? 05:43, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rename to Category:Unsorted stubs - other stub categories aren't child categories of this one, so most stubs aren't in the deep content of this category. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 08:26, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose rename: I don't see the problem. Other stub categories are indeed logically child categories of this (well, I suppose they are, though fortunately their listing is suppressed on the main category page), just as "British politicians" is a child of the unsorted "Politicians" and "British people" categories. If the top level stub categories were all listed on the main category page, this would just slow down the process of looking at that page to stub-sort. And I am proud to announce that I have just emptied the category, in defiance of the template's instruction: "Please do not empty the category or remove this notice while the discussion is in progress."! PamD (talk) 11:42, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • While I can see the point, I'm not entirely sure it would make much sense - perhaps it would be make more sense to simply make Category:Stub categories and/or Category:Top-level stub categories a subcat of Category:Stubs. It's important that the main stub category doesn't get swamped with the full list of cats that's in Category:Stub categories for ease of maintenance - but perhaps it does need to be linked into the tree.

The result of the debate was Upmerge per nom without creating new stub templates. Ruslik_Zero 20:05, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This category is a little odd. Only one of the six sub categories has its own stub template - for the others their pages have been added by adding the category directly rather than using a template. However, the six cats have been further split into sub-sub-cats, most of which are undersized, but all of which have their own templates. So, I would like to upmerge some of the sub-sub cats into the subcats. Based on the size of the parent cats, none of these are likely to grow to the necessary size in the near future:

This will make all of the sub cats of a reasonable size (although it won't correct the issue of them not having their own templates) and will upload a bunch of WAY too small cats (many of these are under 20 stubs, several are under 10). Dana boomer (talk) 14:48, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Except not with those names... Those stub tags are all already in use for the districts within the division with the same name. For example, {{Aurangabad-geo-stub}} is currently used for Aurangabad district, which is a unit of Aurangabad Division, which is the one that needs a stub tag.

Seems this category got moved with negligible debate earlier this year, due to a renaming of the permcat. Now, normally, stub cats do follow permcats - unless by doing so the names become nonsensically ungrammatical, which this one clearly is; these are not films about music stubs, they're stubs for films about music. Not only that, but it's become plural (...films...) which stub categories never are. To match the permcat, it should be "Documentary film about music stubs" - but that's even more nonsensical. Discussion at WP:WSS/P seems to suggest that the former name was better, or that this should, at the very least, be brought up for some kind of discussion here again (including, I note, from one of the two people who were part of the renaming debate!). Personally, my !vote is a rename, back to the way things were before. Grutness...wha? 09:25, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm no expert on documentary films but I can't think of any on music stubs. I agree that reversing the rename is a good idea. Waacstats (talk) 12:15, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming:

And several other templates

Reason: I think that sf is to vague; scifi is much more meaningfull. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 10:00, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Very strong oppose. "Scifi" is widely regarded by most "hard-core" science fiction fans as a gross insult. It would be akin to changing {{UK-bio-stub}} to {{pommybastard-stub}}. Check the "Definitions" section of Science fiction.
I would have no objection to the templates all being changed to {{sci-fict-stub}}, although that would reduce their scope, as sf-stub covers not just science fiction, but all forms of speculative fiction (including such things as science fantasy and alternative history fiction). Grutness...wha? 10:11, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
PS - I know that it's bad form to claim to be an expert on a subject in a deletion debate, but as (a) a published sf author; (b) Fan Guest of Honour at the 1996 NZ national convention; and (c) former president of the NZ National association for science fiction, I have some knowledge of the area :) Grutness...wha? 10:28, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
