Nominator's rationale:Delete or Rename Problematic category creator User:Nopetro has created a new ID for himself as User:Nudecline and also created this opaquely named category for the Traffic Message Channel technology. At present, there are just three articles: the parent and two on multinational corporations that happen to manufacture these systems, among other things. In the parent article, I do not see internal links to articles on individual Traffic Message Channel systems. If they can be found, rename this category to Category:Traffic Message Channel systems or some such. If they do not exist, delete until such time as they do. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:44, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The creator has added other technology manufacturing companies and makes of cars that can receive traffic message channel info -- but other than that, my rationale stands. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:54, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep. I have announce in my page that I use my right to change my name to Nudecline. Of course this is not sock of any class, as the mentioned Mac, that is also closed. This is your bad faith. On the other hand, you make RFD for all category I create without reason. If in a moment there are few article, Wikipedia is a living beeing that changes and expands. So, if there are a lot of article that are not included in a determinated moment, this does not means that all them cannot be include later (this would be a short vision). In any case, the name of the category is right and there is not need to change to other one (in the future, if needed, one can create more subcategories; but by now, it is not necessary).--Nudecline (talk) 11:52, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If kept, Rename to Category:Traffic Message Channel or Category:Traffic Message Channel systems based on the contents when this closes. If kept, the parent categories probably need to be reduced and cleaned up. However I'm leaning towards Delete after looking at the included articles. If seems that inclusion here is based on any mention of the main topic. So if a company has a few products that support this, the company is included here. My guess is that if the contents were cleaned up more most of the articles would be removed from the category. Vegaswikian (talk) 06:25, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: There is no category Men and psychology. Having this category gives the impression that men are standard-humans, and women are exception-humans. Lova Falktalk17:33, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I would say fiction about health is distinct from medical thrillers, etc. Medical experimentation, medical lawsuits, angels of mercy, etc have little to do with health (other than dying); while immortality, TB, AIDS fiction have less to do with medical than health. 70.29.210.155 (talk) 04:35, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It's practically empty, and is subsumed into the new category. What's the point of keeping it? Your distinction between medical fiction and health fiction is not as good as distinction as you suggest. Fences&Windows20:02, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is rather distinct, and as for not being populated, that's because it needs populating. 70.29.210.155 (talk) 04:35, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I really don't see the point of keeping these separate. You could come up with a lot of different distinctions but if we divide it too much the underpopulated categories won't be that useful. What if we delete for now and then re-separate them back out if the overall cat gets too big? delldot∇.01:32, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Seems redundant to other categories like Category:Health, Category:Exercise, etc. Seems to only exist for the purposes of a portal, but it's not being used and isn't necessary - probably as it's so vague what the category is meant for. Fences&Windows18:25, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This is redundant, we should put the categories most relevant to the pages in this category. e.g. the diet articles should be put in diet-related categories; it's kind of arbitrary what's in this category at the moment. delldot∇.01:35, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Syndicalist women

Nominator's rationale:Upmerge to Category:Syndicalists per WP:OC#ARBITRARY. While I'm generally in favour of occupations by women categories where relevant, being a syndicalist is not an "occupation." Furthermore, an inspection of sibling categories in the parent Category:People by political orientation reveals that in much larger category trees for Communists, Fascists, Socialists, etc., no women categories exist. I can't see a reason to make an exception for this tiny category. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 16:05, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps, one can change the personalities. Notat is not only a CEO, is an institucional politician. And a similar category exists in the French Wikipedia. In any case, it is important know there are also females in this fields. So, I am going to outcategorinzing Notat and include the proposed by you. In which category include the trade union female leaders?. Regards --Nopetro (talk) 10:36, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Agree with merging. Of course there are also syndicalist women. There is nothing specific for all women syndicalists that makes them different from all men syndicalists, apart from their gender, which is irrelevant for syndicalism. Lova Falktalk15:40, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Film soundtracks by artist nationality

The result of the discussion was:do not rename. There seems to be a consensus that these categories are intended to categorize soundtracks for films that are FOOian, not soundtracks by FOOian artists. A rename proposal that would clarify the categories' meanings may be appropriate.Good Ol’factory(talk)00:09, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I don't think the actors should matter at all. It should be best organised by the composer I think. Otherwise, I'm not really bothered about the move. Considering the precendence of the way the previous nomination went, I'd err on the side of Support.Munci (talk) 14:02, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose unless someone with a detective talent re-categorizes each OST for each nation represented by its creators. Which would be a huge waste of time. But don't just simply equate "Made in Canada" to "Canadian artists". East of Borschov (talk) 15:20, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Response Is it a waste of time to categorize albums by artist nationality? Either way, this scheme is going to exist, so I don't see why you're opposed to renaming it to conform with the larger scheme. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:03, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Absolutely. Imagine the effort necessary to verify citizenship of all members in an orchestra (of a certain setup on a certain recording date, which itself is seldom known). One of many represented in a ST. What's the point of listing the umpteen citizenships employed by, say, Vienna Philharmonic? Whether the scheme is going to exist or not, it's useless. East of Borschov (talk) 08:23, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. There are Fooian films and there are soundtrack albums to those films. These categories appear to be the intersection of the categories Fooian films and Soundtracks (or more correctly Soundtrack albums). I don't entirely object to the creation of the other categories, although I'd prefer the more general Category:Soundtrack albums by Fooian artists. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 05:01, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I hadn't seen this before. That answers my confusion. Renaming this would make it redundant with the other category. This should stay the way it is, so we have two distinct methods of categorizing soundtracks: by the nationality of the film itself, and the nationality or nationalities of the artist(s). Torchiesttalk/contribs03:27, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Tentative opppose The name of the categories now sounds as though they're stating the country the film was produced, rather than the nationality of any musicians. This seems to be a redefinition of the categories. Or perhaps they were misnamed form the beginning? Torchiesttalk/contribs18:47, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment "Universities and colleges" would follow the already-existing naming hierarchy. (I am not commenting in favor of one or the other, just pointing this out.) --TorriTorri(talk/contribs) 04:40, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
