April 21

Category:Georgia (U.S. state) state courts

Propose renaming Category:Georgia (U.S. state) state courts to Category:Georgia U.S. state courts
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Avoiding repeating words. Brandmeister t 22:13, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
Oppose this is worse as the parsing is now ambiguous especially for readers unfamiliar with the US state/federal court system. Even if we wanted to avoid repeating the word state, this would need to be Category:Georgia (U.S.) state courts (which is not much of an improvement). Yes, the title is slightly awkward but the same is true of other Georgia categories and it's consistent. It's not our fault they chose another country's name. :-) Pichpich (talk) 02:21, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Wasn't the US state the one named first in the 1700's? Vegaswikian (talk) 06:25, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Good question! No definite answer I suppose. Pichpich (talk) 11:10, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
As for the non-Georgia states below I disagree since their namings could be improved much easier than Georgia. Brandmeister t 19:48, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Category:Georgia (U.S. state) state court judges

Propose renaming Category:Georgia (U.S. state) state court judges to Category:Georgia U.S. state court judges
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Avoiding repeating words. Brandmeister t 22:07, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Category:Washington (state) state courts

Propose renaming Category:Washington (state) state courts to Category:Washington state courts
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Avoiding repeated words. Brandmeister t 22:01, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Washington (state) state court judges

Propose renaming Category:Washington (state) state court judges to Category:Washington state court judges
Nominator's rationale: Rename. Avoiding repeating words. Brandmeister t 21:55, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Category:Free election

Propose merging Category:Free election to Category:Elections in Poland
Nominator's rationale: Merge. The main article for this was renamed to Royal elections in Poland. However with only 2 articles, I think that a simple upmerge to one of the parent categories would be the better option. Both articles are already in the history tree so this merge would leave them there. I will note that I removed Category:Monarchy since that does not appear to be appropriate here since this is about elections. Vegaswikian (talk) 20:54, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Category:Professional golfers who have hit an albatross

Category:Professional golfers who have hit an albatross - Template:Lc1
Nominator's rationale: Amounts to trivia, WP:OC#TRIVIA. May be made into a list but it would be a long list. Tewapack (talk) 19:51, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Category:PGA Tour left-handed golfers

Propose renaming Category:PGA Tour left-handed golfers to Category:Left-handed golfers
Nominator's rationale: Too narrow categorization. Rename would allow addition of golfers from other tours, e.g. Peter Dawson (golfer), Richard Green (golfer), Bonnie Bryant (golfer). Tewapack (talk) 19:39, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Category:Czech musical awards

Category:Czech musical awards - Template:Lc1

Category:Lesbian pornographic film actors

Category:Lesbian pornographic film actors - Template:Lc1
Nominator's rationale: Delete. There is only one person in here out of countless pornographic actresses, and given the need for public self-identification with the label in bios of living people, I don't think there ever will be more than one. Asarelah (talk) 00:06, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
