  • Propose deleting and restoring status quo as at 12 November 2023.
Materialscientist appears to have made a unilateral decision without consensus to overturn a long term practice on articles about chess players. He appears to believe that chess tournaments are usually segregated by gender, however this is not the case. While over 90% of competitive chess players are male, the vast majority of tournaments are open to all players. Examples of women competing alongside men in high level tournaments can be found as far back as 1929 and probably earlier. There are a few women only tournaments, but no men only tournaments; this form of positive discrimination is generally accepted by chess players. Some women prefer all woman tournaments, but these are relatively rare outside of Europe. Equally some women prefer to play against all comers, even if they're not so keen on the unwanted attention from male players. The main point is men's and women's competition is not truly segregated, and the status quo was preferable. The root of the unilateral non-consensus based decision can be found in this edit. If the decision stands, we have to go through thousands of articles about chess players just to add the intersection of gender and nationality, which seems like a total waste of time.

Nominator's rationale: A category for short-time British Prime Minister Liz Truss, her father John Truss and her husband Hugh O'Leary, plus 2 redirects (imho very challengeable) linking back to the Liz Truss article.

Nominator's rationale: At its face, this is a 3-article category in one that isn't especially large, and where the objects in the subcategories are mostly not weapons. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 12:12, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Given names with negative perceived cultural associations

[edit]
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) HouseBlastertalk 21:43, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This recently created category seems to be entirely subjective and doesn't meet WP:NPOV, WP:DUE, WP:RS or satisfy WP:DEFINING. It has been added to articles without the article once mentioning any "negative perceived cultural association" (e.g., Brandon (given name)), where the perceived cultural association arises from the name being used as a villain in a film (e.g., Ursula (name)), or even where the name became more popular after being used as the name of a protagonist in a film (e.g. Samara (given name)). Ultimately, though, pretty much every name could be in the category, because I can probably find you a villain, criminal, or "negative perceived cultural association" for every name - real world or fictional - except for newly-invented Tragedeigh names: James - James Bond, regarded as a sociopath and misogynist by many. John - Long John Silver, notorious pirate. Mary - Typhoid Mary. And so on... BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 12:00, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The names included in the character are those with reliable references that list them as having “negative perceived cultural references” and some sources do indeed list them as a group. The association was negative enough that it was written about. It’s not a list of names that you or I personally dislike. I haven’t found any sources that list Mary as a name with perceived negative associations. I think it is notable but go to it if you disagree.

Sports families by nationality

[edit]
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: rename all as nominated. A couple of notes:
  1. The general principle (which received unanimous support) is renaming "Sports families of XYZ" to "XYZ sports families". Category:Sports families of India was not listed in the nomination, but given it was mentioned in this discussion, tagged with a pointer to this CfD, and would qualify for C2C, I am IARing and including it in this close.
  2. Category:Russian sports families by sport / Category:Russian sports families is currently empty, but it can also be populated as Fayenatic London suggested. I will be doing this one manually to ensure it gets populated. (non-admin closure) HouseBlastertalk 22:00, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: For consistency with Category:Families by nationality. – Fayenatic London 11:32, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete After Category:Russian combat sports families is merged, there will be nothing left. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 13:29, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
