NEW NOMINATIONS

Television navigational boxes

Procedural relisting. This a relisting of a set of categories which were listed at WP:CFD/S for speedy renaming. I implemented the moves without checking that they were all properly tagged, and it was pointed out afterwards that most of them were not. (I had only spot-checked the first one, which is tagged. Sorry; I'll do complete checks in future)
Once the moves were implemented, some Australian editors objected, and eventually discovered the procedural failing. This is an important failing, because it deprived editors of the opportunity to oppose the speedy moves. If objections had been made, the categories would have been taken to a full discussion here.
Rather than revert the moves, have the discussion, and then possibly revert the reverts, I have listed them all here. It is important that although the categories are now at the rename target, the closing admin should note they were moved there outside of procedure ... so unless there is an explicit consensus to support these moves, the categories be renamed back to the status quo ante. (I have not restored the status quo before the discussions, because category moves involve a lot of edits, which will not be needed if the proposal is upheld).
In other words:
  • Consensus to rename requires no action
  • "Keep" or "no consensus" should lead to the categories being moved back.
Sorry again that I screwed up by not checking properly that nomination was all in order. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:09, 17 September 2012 (UTC)

Category:Chinese regional rulers

Nominator's rationale: Vaguely defined category — and, accordingly, even though the category was created five years ago, only one article had ever been placed in the category (Xu Shouhui). I don't see any particular use for it. Delete. --Nlu (talk) 05:34, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
