NEW NOMINATIONS
Category:Lists of communes of Italy
- Propose renaming Category:Lists of communes of Italy to Category:List of comuni of Italy
- Nominator's rationale: This is the correct Italian plural form. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:43, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
- Keep per eg cfd of 1 May 2014, Category:Communes_of_Italy and nearly all the contents of Category:Lists of communes of Italy. Note also that the plural in English of List is Lists. The article List of comuni of Italy should be moved back to List of communes of Italy. 78.146.132.176 (talk) 22:13, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
Category:Baltimore City, Maryland Registered Historic Place stubs
- Nominator's rationale: All other Misplaced Pages categories related to this city call it "Baltimore, Maryland", not "Baltimore City, Maryland". עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 20:06, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
- Comment This was most likely done to distinguish it from Baltimore County. Perhaps you should see whether "Baltimore" or "Baltimore City" is the official NRHP designation. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:49, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
Category:American people executed by decapitation
- Nominator's rationale: This category is a bit tricky. Of the twelve articles currently in the category, four relate to people were kidnapped and murdered by terrorists in one-or-another Middle Eastern war zone. I know media tend to use the word "execution" to refer to these murders, but including them in the same category as people who were found guilty of a crime and subjected to capital punishment seems problematic. Four more were apparently murdered, not "executed", in the United States. One was apparently murdered in the 1850s under circumstances I don't fully understand and I'm not sure if the word "execution" is appropriate or not. Two more were executed by hanging, but accidentally decapitated in the process -- this means they were technically both "executed" and "decapitated", but the implication of "executed by decapitation" is still wrong. Only one (Mildred Harnack) was indisputably "executed by hanging". If the category exists to use the common wording of "execution" for the first of these groups, then we can theoretically keep the title, but the other articles need to be removed...

- Comment -- This is an aberrant category. England executed its nobles (and Charles I) by decapitation with with an axe. France used the guillotine for the death penalty. We need to distinguish judicial execution from murder and from death in battle. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:21, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
- Keep This is part of a larger Category:People executed by decapitation category so we shouldn't rename just this one. Adding some text (that is compatible with parent categories) and purging may be appropriate. DexDor (talk)
- So, we should remove all but one of the twelve articles in the category, to keep it consistent with the other subcategories of that larger category? 'Cause in case you haven't noticed, almost no one here was actually "executed by decapitation". Are single-article categories allowed? (I honestly don't know.) Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 23:01, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
- Comment Category:People executed by decapitation is childcat of Category:Deaths by decapitation, so I guess many articles should be upmoved from 'executed' to 'deaths'. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:51, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
Category:List of scientists whose names are used as non SI units
- Propose deleting Category:List of scientists whose names are used as non SI units - Template:Lc1
- Propose deleting Category:List of scientists whose names are used as non SI units - Template:Lc1
- Nominator's rationale: Not a good way to categorize scientists. Could be listified. If kept, should be renamed to something like "Scientists whose names are used as non SI units". DexDor (talk) 06:08, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
Category:Works by Ravindra Prabhat
- Propose deleting Category:Works by Ravindra Prabhat - Template:Lc1
- Propose deleting Category:Works by Ravindra Prabhat - Template:Lc1
- Nominator's rationale: Empty category many entries deleted post Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Hindi Blogging ka Itihas. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 05:33, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
- Delete as per nom this a empty category after the delete all in the AFD.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 22:30, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
