"No consensus (keep)". I don't think either side has made much of a case for keeping or deleting. It does seem somewhat subjective, but there also seems to be evidence that this is a defining characteristic for some, perhaps most of these performers. There clearly is not a consensus one way or the other, and it seems borderline as far as policy |

| Category:Diabetics |
RENAME to Category:People with diabetes. Well this is a tough one, with a triangular structure (Keep-Rename-Delete) rather than binary. Looking at the raw totals FWIW, we have 5 Rename, 2 Keep, 7 Delete. So right off the bat we don't want to Keep it as is, absent a really compelling argument to do so, which I don't see. So, Rename or Delete? The nature of the discussion changed as it went on, from Keep-or-Rename to Rename-or-Delete. The last eight commentors fall out to 7 Delete, 1 Rename, which looks like a consensus to Delete emerged. On the other hand, comments should not necessarily be weighted by temporal order. So with 7 Keep-or-Rename against 7 Delete, I don't see a numerical consensus to delete. So on to the arguments. WP:OCAT is strong argument, and the Delete commentors mostly made this argument. This was not really refuted, as the Rename commentors mostly made arguments in favor of Rename but didn't address whether the category should be kept or not; they probably mostly assumed that this option was not on the table, as it was not offered in the nomination. We cannot know if they would actually prefer Delete to Rename |

judgment call. I think the "it's interesting" argument should be discounted. That leaves us with the question of whether being an alum is defining. For real people, arguably, it is, since they really spent several years there and it shaped them. For fictional people, this does not apply at all unless the fiction really covers that part of their background in detail, which frankly most fictions don't. Frequently it's important to the story that a character has an academic background, but not at all where that academic background was obtained, and in most stories where it's mentioned you can replace university X by university Y without affecting the story at all. So no, it's not a defining characteristic, so delete |

| Fictional characters by power |
Some consensus - It's been over 10 days and this nomination hasn't yet been closed. I am guessing it's because it could seem somewhat complex to someone not normally involved in the topic. I'm going to ignore the typical guideline which suggests to avoid closing discussions which you've been a part of (I added a comment below). If another admin wishes to overturn/modify this closure, they're welcome to do so |
March 14
|
| Category:Fictional characters by superhuman power |
I'm going out on a limb here again and make a judgment call. One problem with these cats are the overlaps (e.g. people who can shapeshift into a flying creature, or create illusions of darkness). Another is the ludicrously long names. A third is classification, because not all fictional settings obey "neat" schemes of who-can-do-what. The main problem, however, is that these are apparently created for settings in which these powers are something special, such as the superhero genre. In other settings, some powers are nowhere near special; for instance, all Pini elves are telepathic, and all WOD vampires have superhuman strength. Worse, if we look at Category:Fictional wizards, we'd see that most of those wizards can do just about all of this. The same would apply to fictional witches, genies, deities, and several gadgeteers. So if we were to use this scheme, we'd have to add several dozen long-named categories to the likes of Raistlin, Ridcully, Pug, Haplo, Gandalf, Dworkin, Edward Elric, and Ged. Clearly, that's not helpful. This scheme really Does Not Work. Instead, what would be useful here is articles like flight in fiction, or like list of Marvel characters by superpower. So let's bring on the lists. Listify. And as before, changing a category to a list is not a loss of information |

| Category:Fictional plays |
No consensus (no rename). The debate was about evenly split, and as someone uninvolved, I can't see that it really matters very much one way or the other. Most people (like myself) are not going to understand the distinction between the two choices. I don't see any arguments that show a convincing need to change the category, nor to keep it as is. With the current standard being "Fictional", that seems reason enough to keep it as is |

For the future, folks, if the nominator wants to withdraw a nomination, please be sure to make your intentions clear by putting "nomination withdrawn" clearly in bold at the start of the comment seeking withdrawal, and don't hide the word "withdraw" in the middle of a discursive paragraph.
There appears to be variety of different proposals under consideration here, some of which involve a major change to the category's purpose. I therefore want to suggest to all involved that the name be discussed at Category talk:Gay porn stars, to clarify the options before returning to CFD with a new proposal or set of proposals.}} |

No consensus (keep). The problem doesn't seem to be this category as much as the problem of organizing mountains by continents, when it is questionable if islands are part of the continents. Perhaps, the "Mountains by continent" should be renamed to something like "Mountains by global region" so that Islands can be included. It is not unusual (in the U.S.) to separate North American from Central American when talking about continents, and it makes about as much sense as separating Europe from Asia |

March 23
|
| Category:People commemorated by blue plaques |
delete as overcategorisation, and listify. Tricky, but I think I perceive a consensus. Purely on a head-count it's 9-3 support for the nominator's rationale. I looked at the previous discussion of blue plaque categories pointed to by Oosoom, and in my judgement it does not address the issue raised by the Dr. Submillimeter. While a blue plaque is not exactly a posthumous award, most contributors here seem convinced it is effectively one. Also the plaque links the person and a building, information not amenable to Misplaced Pages categorisation but perfectly feasible on a list. No-one disputed Jpbowen's argument for the blue plaques' cultural significance, but neither was it accepted as an argument in favour of keeping this category. My robot will create a list at list of people commemorated by blue plaques in due course |

Rename to Category:People executed by X. I considered the merge comment as support for a rename. I have placed a no bots on these entries in the work list so that someone can verify that the target name is correct, there are some possible issues there. I'll remove that warning in a day or so. Feel free to remove the no bots from those that are correct |
