:'''Nominator's rationale:''' Appending state as per many nominations of this type, and in conformity with other members of their categories.

- Nominator's rationale: There’s no clear convention for newspaper categories by city, so I’ll suggest they follow the “Newspapers published in X” pattern like the by-state categories. I also picked a way to handle the defunct ones similar to Category:Defunct newspapers of Kentucky. Other suggestions welcome.--Mike Selinker (talk) 00:56, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
- Comment. Not sure of the defunct ones. Maybe something along the lines of Category:Newspapers formerly published in Chicago, Illinois? Vegaswikian (talk) 03:15, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
- Hey, hey! I had the exact same thought when I was looking at this a couple of hours ago. It hits the nail squarely on the head. As for the rest of these categories... We could just sit back and wait a couple of months rather than bother with renaming them now. By then, at the rate things are going, there won't even be any daily newspapers still publishing in the United States. They're dropping like flies... Cgingold (talk) 04:37, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
- True that. Anyway, I'm fine with "Newspapers formerly published in X" if people like that better. There are others in the category that would change under that scheme.--Mike Selinker (talk) 04:58, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
- rename per nom. This provides information for the reader that they should not have to guess at. Hmains (talk) 04:46, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
