Category:Biblical women in ancient warfare
Category:Biblical women in ancient warfare (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
This category contains a mere three people, and is unlikely to expand, as there are only three women directly involved in warfare in the bible. Asarelah 06:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Category:Legendary British women in ancient warfare
Category:Legendary British women in ancient warfare (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Contains only two women, and there are no other British women involved in ancient warfare in the legendary history of Britain. Asarelah 06:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete underpopulated category. Doczilla 08:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Category:Women in ancient Japanese warfare
Category:Women in ancient Japanese warfare (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Contains only one person, and is unlikely to expand as I have found no other Japanese women in ancient warfare in my research. Asarelah 06:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Category:Footballers who died tragically young
- This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of football (soccer) related deletions. Daemonic Kangaroo 06:11, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Category:Footballers who died tragically young (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
NPOV, unencyclopedic 69.209.113.141 04:15, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Rename As the creator of the original category, I feel that it has a relevance and should be retained. The only POV is the use of the word tragically so perhaps the category should be renamed to Category:Footballers who died under 40.

- Though I for one believe that Duncan Edwards could have been one of the greatest players of all time, I agree that this category is a bad idea. No category should have a name containing the word "tragically", to start with. Delete. Grutness...wha? 05:57, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. It's POV as it is, and any renaming to under a certain age makes it an arbitrary grouping. -Amarkov edits 06:33, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete "Tragically" invokes POV. "Young" is inappropriately defined and also invokes POV. (Exactly what proportion of footballers are over 40, eh?) Doczilla 08:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Category:Native American women
Category:Native American women (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
For a Native American to be a woman is not the sort of remarkable achievement that merits breaching the policy against categorizing by gender, indeed more than half of Native Americans accomplish it. This should go the same way as Category:American women. There is already a list. Sumahoy 02:49, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Aaaaargh! There is NO policy against categorizing by sex! It is a guideline, not a policy. Not meaning to be all uncivil and junk, and not meaning to make you take the brunt of this except you happen to be the one who nominated this cat, but Misplaced Pages:Naming conventions (categories) is a series of guidelines, not a policy. Misplaced Pages:Categorization of people is a guideline, not a policy. I really wish that you and every other editor who nominates sex-based categories by referencing the "policy" against it would figure out the difference between a policy and a guideline.
- That all being said, Delete because the cat does not satisfy the guideline regarding sex-based classifications. Otto4711 04:33, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per above, although it should be a policy. -Amarkov edits 06:34, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per the relevant guideline: Misplaced Pages:Categorization/Gender, race and sexuality -- Samuel Wantman 07:30, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per guideline and many, many precedents. Doczilla 08:42, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Category:Impressionist entertainers
Category:American impressionists
Category:Impressionist entertainers to Category:Impressionists (entertainers)
Category:American impressionists to Category:American impressionists (entertainers)
- Rename, Your reason(s) for the proposed rename. Sumahoy 02:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
The parent category requires a name that disambiguates it from Category:Impressionist artists, but the present one makes me do a double take. The subcategory should then follow the parent. Sumahoy 02:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Rename to Category:Impersonators and Category:American impersonators respectively. Grutness...wha? 06:01, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. "Impersonators" is a broader and different word. Doczilla 08:41, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
