See also: Category talk:British MPs and This related CfR.

Category:Visegrád Group

Category:Visegrád Group (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Created only this summer, subj. is a rather loose and passive association: the only content can be 4 member states plus the main stub, Template:Visegrád Group at their end does the same service without creating problems in category tree (see category's talk).

IAW the naming conventions as per discussion at WPMILHIST.--Oldwildbill 18:06, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Category:Television anchors by city

Category:Television anchors by city to Category:American television anchors by city

  • Rename, This is an American category so the name should say so. In the (fairly unlikely) event that categories for non-US cities are created this can be recreated as a parent category at that point. Metthurst 05:33, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Category:Military drugs

Category:Military drugs (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Delete, Well intentioned, but poorly thought out category. Every drug for every purpose may find use in military medicine. There are NO drugs that are unique to military medicine. Not stimulants. Not vaccines. Not anabolic steroids. Not even nerve agent antidote. All of these are used by nonmilitary healthcare providers. Apparently all that has to be done to put a drug in this category is cite a source stating that some military force has used it. This category is of little practical relevance, and completely unmanageable if carried out to its fullest logical extension. Give Peace A Chance 03:26, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Category:Caciques of El Salvador

Category:Caciques of El Salvador (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
To judge from the circumstances of its creation, and its solitary entry, this category is intended for indigenous rulers/figures from the pre-Columbian/conquest era history of the region (now embraced by the modern country). A couple of problems with this category, however- (1) 'El Salvador' as a nation/concept did not exist in this era, so its use for this category is anachronistic. (2) 'Cacique' is the a conquest-era spanish adoption of a title meaning "ruler" or "chieftain", which was in some general use at that time but actually comes from the indigenous Caribbean languages, and not those of this region (in particular, not Pipil/Nawat), and so its use is out-of-place here. Delete this category, the alternative ones now assigned to its sole entry should be sufficient.cjllw | TALK 02:50, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
