Proposed deletion |
Categories may be listed for speedy renaming or speedy merging if they meet one or more of the criteria specified below. They must be tagged with {{subst:cfr-speedy|New name}}
so that users of the categories are aware of the proposal. A request may be processed 48 hours after it was listed if there are no objections. This delay allows other editors to review the request to ensure that it meets the criteria for speedy renaming or merging, and to raise objections to the proposed change.
Categories that qualify for speedy deletion (per Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, e.g. "patent nonsense", "recreation") can be tagged with the regular speedy tags, such as {{db|reason}}
, and no delay is required to process these. Empty categories can be deleted if they remain empty 7 days after tagging with {{db-empty}}. Renaming under C2E can also be processed instantly as it is a variation on G7.
Contested speedy requests become stale, and can be un-tagged and de-listed, after 7 days of inactivity. Optionally, if the discussion may be useful for future reference, it may be copied to the category talk page, with a section heading and {{moved discussion from|[[WP:CFDS]]|2=~~~~}}
. If the nominator wants to continue the process, they need to submit the request as a regular CfD in accordance with the instructions there.
Speedy criteria
The category-specific criteria for speedy renaming, or merging are strictly limited to:
C2A: Typographic and spelling fixes
- Correction of spelling errors and capitalization fixes. Differences between British and American spelling (e.g. Harbours → Harbors) are not considered errors; however if the convention of the relevant category tree is to use one form over the other then a rename may be appropriate under C2C. If both spellings exist as otherwise-identical category names, they should be merged.
- Appropriate conversion of hyphens into en dashes or vice versa (e.g. Category:Canada-Russia relations → Category:Canada–Russia relations).
C2B: Enforcing established Wikipedia naming conventions and practices
- Expanding abbreviated country names (e.g. U.S. → United States).
- Disambiguation fixes from an unqualified name (e.g. Category:Washington → Category:Washington (state) or Category:Washington, D.C.).
C2C: Bringing a category into line with established naming conventions for that category tree, or into line with the various "x by y", "x of y", or "x in y" categorization conventions specified at Wikipedia:Category names
- This should be used only where there is no room for doubt that the category in question is being used for the standard purpose instead of being a potential subcategory.
- This criterion should be applied only when there is no ambiguity or doubt over the existence of a category naming convention. Such a convention must be well defined and must be overwhelmingly used within the tree. If this is not the case then the category in question must be brought forward to a full Cfd nomination.
- This criterion will not apply in cases where the category tree observes distinctions in local usage (e.g. Category:Transportation in the United States and Category:Transport in the United Kingdom).
C2D: Facilitating concordance between a particular category's name and a related page's name
- Renaming a topic category to match its eponymous page (e.g. Category:The Beatles and The Beatles).
- This applies only if the related page's current name (and by extension, the proposed name for the category) is unambiguous, and uncontroversial – either because of longstanding stability at that particular name or because the page was just moved after a page move discussion resulted in explicit consensus to rename. If the page names are controversial or ambiguous in any way, then this criterion does not apply.
- This criterion also does not apply if there is any ongoing discussion about the name of the page or category, or if there has been a recent discussion concerning any of the pages that resulted in a no consensus result.
C2E: Author request
- This criterion applies only if the author of a category requests or agrees to renaming within six months of creating the category.
- The criterion does not apply if other editors have populated or changed the category since it was created. "Other editors" includes bots that populated the category, but excludes an editor working with the author on the renaming.
Admin instructions for handling listed entries
When handling the listings:
- Make sure that the listing meets one of the above criteria.
- With the exception of C2E, make sure that it was both listed and tagged at least 48 hours previously.
- Make sure that there are no oppositions to the listing; if there is a discussion, check if the opposing user(s) ended up withdrawing the opposition(s).
If the listing meets these criteria, simply have the category renamed - follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Administrator instructions, in the section "If the decision is Delete, Merge, or Rename"; to list it for the bots, use the Speedy moves section.
Applying C2 in full CfD discussions
- A nomination to merge or rename, brought forward as a full CfD, may be speedily closed if the closing administrator is satisfied that:
- The nomination clearly falls within the scope of one of the criteria listed here, and
- No objections have been made within 48 hours of the initial nomination.
- If both these conditions are satisfied, the closure will be regarded as having been as a result of a speedy nomination. If any objections have been raised then the CfD nomination will remain in place for the usual 7-day discussion period, to be decided in accordance with expressed consensus.
Add requests for speedy renaming and merging here
If the category and desired change do not match one of the criteria mentioned in C2, do not list it here. Instead, list it in the main CFD section.'
If you are in any doubt as to whether it qualifies, do not list it here.
Use the following format on a new line at the beginning of the list:
* [[:Category:old name]] to [[:Category:new name]] – Reason ~~~~
This will sign and datestamp an entry automatically.
Remember to tag the category with: {{subst:Cfr-speedy|New name}}
A request may be completed if it is more than 48 hours old; that is, if the time stamp shown is earlier than 13:27, 1 October 2024 (UTC). Currently, there are 249 open requests (. )
Do not use the "Move" tab to move categories listed here! Categories are processed following the 48-hour discussion period and are moved by a bot. |

- Oppose: This category is part of Category:Volcanic calderas by continent, and therefore a full discussion would be needed to rename. -- Black Falcon (talk) 06:48, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Agreed, but that full discussion should surely result in the move; it just needs to be done at a higher level. This is redundant in the way "mountains on land" or "biological viruses" would be (maybe even more so). — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 07:59, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Very true. -- Black Falcon (talk) 06:00, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
- Wouldn't that simply mean that WP:C2D should be applied to that parent category instead of the subcat? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 17:10, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
- You make a good point. Every category starting with Category:Volcanic calderas could be renamed accordingly. -- Black Falcon (talk) 21:35, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
- So, should I simply make a request for the parent category? I am not terribly experienced with category renames. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 11:14, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, sorry, I should have been clearer in my response. I'll defer to you if you want to start with just Category:Volcanic calderas or nominate the whole category tree at the same time. If you choose the latter, I would be happy to help with listing and/or tagging the categories. -- Black Falcon (talk) 04:59, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
- Alright, I just filed a request for the parent category. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 11:03, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
- Note that the move Category:Volcanic calderas to Category:Calderas was not opposed for two days, and I now moved this nomination for processing. We can continue with continents.--Ymblanter (talk) 15:12, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

- Oppose per MOS:ABBR; these are just articles that need to be renamed to comply with WP conventions; they don't form their own magical counter-convention we need to re-implement in category-space. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 08:06, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- @SMcCandlish: are you opposing all the above club categories? The "dots" be the usual form within Category:Football clubs in Portugal. Also, Nacional should be renamed to avoid ambiguity. – Fayenatic London 23:53, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
- Yes. Wikiprojects have to stop making up their own "rules" in direct contravention of site-wide ones, like MOS:ABBR. We don't use dots in acronyms, even if some off-site sources following their own house style still do so. The idea of doing randomly different style stuff in football categories on the basis of them having something to do with Portugal is absurd. This is not pt.wikipedia. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 09:38, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

- Oppose this set. @Laurel Lodged: C2D per what? Roman Limes and Roman limes both redirect to Limes, so that doesn't help. The head category and most sibling categories use Roman Limes, so these nominations go against C2C. – Fayenatic London 07:40, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
- Reply Was a typo - should be C2A to correct a typo. Limes should not be capitalised. Laurel Lodged (talk) 09:15, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
- @Laurel Lodged and Fayenatic london: We may also rename them to Category:Limes, Category:Limes in Ukraine etc. per WP:C2D, how do you feel about that? Marcocapelle (talk) 12:39, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
- I would prefer that these speedies go ahead. Later, I think that the entire scheme of Roman Walls, Roman Limes and Roman Fortified Roads needs to be re-visited. To that end, I've started a discussion at Talk:Limes#Walls_vs_Limes. Laurel Lodged (talk) 12:42, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
- I don't see any point having a speedy renaming, particularly one that goes against C2C, while a wider discussion is under way. Also, "Limes" is singular; the categories should use a plural noun, and the choice deserves a full discussion e.g. "Roman Limites", "Roman limites", "Roman frontiers", "Roman fortified boundaries".
- In reply to Marcocapelle's suggestion to drop "Roman", that is not desirable because there are medieval Limites e.g. Limes Saxoniae. – Fayenatic London 13:16, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
- Agree with Fayenatic london, why bother now while a discussion is still ongoing. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:03, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

- Support with Roman limites, not limes (with or without Roman), and no with a a capital L. The capitalization of Limes in these constructions is wrong (and would be wrong as Limites). Dropping the Roman would be grossly ambiguous with limes, especially in category space where we use plurals; about 99.9% of readers would think they were about fruit if they were in the form "Limes in Tunisia". The plural rule means use limites, anyway. We could use just "Limites in Tunisia", etc., but it's not likely to be meaningful to the average reader and may just look like a typo. Roman limites will tell all but the bonehead that it's a Latin word. I've looked at the RfC opened at Talk:Limes and it's just a bunch of rambling with no indication of going toward a consensus. If we need to change it later to Roman frontiers or whatever, then fine, we can do so. No reason to have incorrectly singular and capitalize categories in the interim. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 17:06, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

- It's a sensible interim measure. Laurel Lodged (talk) 09:33, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
- I'm not convinced that it's in the right direction. I would prefer to see a full discussion. It seems to me that this may be a case of over-categorisation by WP:SHAREDNAME. Why do we need a hierarchy using a foreign word, when we already have Category:Roman frontiers and Category:Roman fortifications? – Fayenatic London 09:58, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
- I have no objection to that objection. Given the amount of discussion above, this should just go to a full discussion instead of languishing in the holding tank. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 08:04, 8 November 2017 (UTC)

Moved to full discussion
- Category:Track and field athletes from Louisiana to Category:Track and field people from Louisiana per C2C. My proposal is to speedily merge or rename these categories from "athletes" to "people" for these four states, as the subcategories for 17 of the 21 states use "people", see Category:American track and field athletes by state or territory However if it was thought that using "athletes" rather than "people" for all 21 states would fit better with the overall "track and field athletes" categories, I would go along with that. Hugo999 (talk) 04:56, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
- Category:Track and field athletes from Pennsylvania to Category:Track and field people from Pennsylvania
- Category:Track and field athletes from West Virginia to Category:Track and field people from West Virginia
- Category:Track and field athletes from Wyoming to Category:Track and field people from Wyoming
- @Hugo999: Thanks for the note. I am declining speedy as "people" can mean coaches or other sportspeople and athletes are the performers in sports. This is consistent with several schemes. I'll be happy to make my case at a full CfD. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:09, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Yes but which way - I am happy to put up for full discussion for going to "athletes" for the 17 states if that is favoured, in line with the parent category Hugo999 (talk) 21:58, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
- @Hugo999: Sorry if I was unclear. The parent category is Sport people with child categories as appropriate (Sport players/coaches/etc.) For most sports, it's not necessary to have more than coaches and players and for many, only players. Does that clarify? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:11, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
- AS I favour "athletes" rather than "people" now so will put that case up at a full discussion. Hugo999 (talk) 21:59, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

Ready for deletion
Check Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion for out of process deletions. In some cases, these will need to be nominated for discussion and the editor who emptied the category informed that they should follow the WP:CFD process.
Once the renaming has been completed, copy and paste the listing to the Ready for deletion section of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Working/Manual.
