Propose merging Category:BattleBots video games to Category:BattleBots

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT. The one game here should be merged to the suggested category as well as Category:Video games based on television series. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:24, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:Video games using cast members from original production (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Propose deleting Category:Star Trek video games using television cast members (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: Fails WP:NONDEF. Whether a video game uses cast members or not is not a defining aspect of the game. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:07, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. for franchises like Star Trek, the inclusion of actual cast members makes the game on a similar level to the tv epsiodes themselves, for many fans. there are many published articles which highlight this added value and importance.::Sm8900 (talk) 03:46, 2 April 2023 (UTC) — Note to closing admin: Sm8900 (talk • contribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this XfD. [reply]
Delete Seems akin to WP:OCASSOC and WP:PERFCAT. The involvement can be discussed in the article with whatever level of importance is appropriate but this feels too common and too varied to navigate by. RevelationDirect (talk) 06:04, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not a WP:CATDEF whatsoever. That fans of Star Trek hold those video games to a similar level to TV episodes is trivial and highly doubtful. We're not here to serve Trekkies. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 09:45, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Liechtenstein emigrants to the United States to Category:Liechtensteinian emigrants to the United States

Nominator's rationale: Adjectival form is needed. Laurel Lodged (talk) 19:50, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Category:Liechtenstein people. The demonyms in use are prescribed at Wikipedia:Category_names#Current_nationalities, and it's Liechtenstein. Oculi (talk) 23:26, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The name should be the same as in Category:Liechtenstein people. V27t [ T • C ] 23:57, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Habsburg kings of Bohemia

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.

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Habsburg monarchs of Bohemia. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 01:56, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Habsburg kings of Bohemia to Category:Habsburg monarchs of Bohemia

Nominator's rationale: Not all Habsburg monarchs of Bohemia were male. See Maria Theresa. Laurel Lodged (talk) 16:10, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, "King" is the name of the position, it does not determine gender, queens regnant also count as "kings". Marcelus (talk) 16:34, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reply Really? Got any examples / citations for that claim? Laurel Lodged (talk) 21:52, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@RevelationDirect already pointed out the source; she was styled as a king and assumed the position and role of a king, there is nothing wrong in calling her "king of Bohemia". (read this source, p. 118). What is more the "monarch" category is broader, so it should be a parent category to "kings of Bohemia" and "dukes of Bohemia" Marcelus (talk) 22:27, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good idea @Marcelus:. Thanks for the suggestion. I have WP:BOLDly created Category:Monarchs of Bohemia as a parent for Category:Kings of Bohemia. Laurel Lodged (talk) 14:27, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Rename The Maria Theresa article reads as follows "in nomenclature, Maria Theresa was archduke and king; normally, however, she was styled as queen". So this one is more arguable than most, but "monarchs" would inarguably include her. - RevelationDirect (talk) 18:56, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support There is no reason to pretend that all the monarchs were male, even if the female monarch styled herself with a male title. Dimadick (talk) 16:57, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If they styled themselves as "kings" they should be in the category of kings. King doesn't imply masculinity. Marcelus (talk) 09:31, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:Wikipedians in the AWWDCCW (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: As a continuation of last years' tradition ...^{[April Fools!]}. No, seriously, this category is no better than Category:Wikipedians in the AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD, which was deleted last September, and falls into one or more of the following classifications: broadly or vaguely defined, personal userspace categories, joke/nonsense. If kept, rename to Category:Wikipedians in the Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Clash of Civilizations in Wikipedia to match the name of the parent page. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 00:06, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
