*'''Oppose''' Should only have category labels for clubs the players participated in. When it was at one place and they played, they should be in that category.

**I don't understand. You start by saying that players should have a category for the clubs they participated in, which in this case should mean only one category, but then say that there should be two categories when the club changes location. Ansell and Mike Selinger actually seem to be saying only assign people to the ''team names'' that they played under. It seems the name change is actually more relevant to this issue than the location change, meaning that the 'Roos and Bulldogs are affected similarly, not to mention it's hard to know what to do with players from the 1982 season. ] (]) 09:35, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

The result of the debate was merge. the wub "?!" 09:43, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Merge with Category:High school football in Louisville and delete. The nominated category doesn't match the standard of "sport in state/city". All of the existing articles deal with high school football programs in Louisville, and thus belong in a Louisville-specific category. However, I also created a new category of Category:High school football in Kentucky as a catch-all for future Kentucky HS football articles. — Dale Arnett 23:13, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Category:Bionicle species into Category:Bionicle groups

  • Merge. Currently, the only difference between the two is that "groups" are made up of a set of characters while "species" are made of a set of breeds within those species, which are just as different from each other as the individual characters in the "groups" are. Blurring the line even further between the two is that several "groups" consist of a single race anyway. Drakhan 17:57, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete, most editors who have commented on this category's talk page agree that this is not a useful category. It is far too large and difficult to navigate. I am open to any proposals that would help wikipedians locate, subcategorize and source a manageable number of articles with unsourced statements. But it is not helpful to automatically dump tens of thousands of articles into one useless category.The Fat Man Who Never Came Back 15:15, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

  • keep How else are we supposed to find these and make wikipedia better?Lkinkade 21:15, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Useful and necessary category, used to locate and contain articles with a major problem (necessary citation being absent). I agree that its usefulness would be dramatically increased if there was a convenient way to display the intersection of this category and some other category of interest. Christopher Parham (talk) 21:26, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
  • delete This category is a scar across the face of Misplaced Pages. John254 attempted to speedy close this debate, which was completely out of order. Who awarded him a infinite number of votes? Casper Claiborne 11:52, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. The category has a function: helping people who want to provide references find articles where they can do so. But I agree that the catefory is overpopulated, and some way to split this thing up should be discussed the same way we split the stub category into subcategories. For now though, this is an important part of our cleanup tools and should stay. Sjakkalle (Check!) 12:40, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep there is a method being developed now to split this cat up into several others, so for now, this should stay to give us a benchmark. Plus, if it is too large, then just pick random articles, find the template and either cite the fact or remove it. It's that simple. User:Zscout370 13:33, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete It is useless as it is and subdivision is a very bad idea as there is no one subdivision scheme that could work. Twittenham 14:56, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Major maintenence category. Very useful. Its large size is because noone wants to empty it the proper way. Why not try to help its huge backlog rather than pan for its deletion? In fact, this category is one of the major pieces of work that should be done on wikipedia. Everything should be sourced. Kevin_b_er 15:47, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep this useful work category. Not sure why it is being suggested for deletion in the first place. ++Lar: t/c 16:05, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Can't see what deleting it would be expected to accomplish. Maybe it isn't a very useful category, but it's still more useful than no category at all. --ais523 16:18, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Category:Fictional umbrakineticists to Category:Fictional shadow manipulators

Okay, I agree with all jc37's appendages. I also thought hydrokinesis might be a real word but I was unsure. I did post on the discussion that this was a loose start point for changes and any appendages could be changed to my original suggestions. I considered suggesting "mystical" healers but I thought that would disclude psionics or perhaps robots with advanced "super" doctor skills. I thought that maybe the explaining paragraph would work on the category. How about "fictional characters who can heal others" or "fictional characters with the power to heal"? ~Zythe 23:19, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
"Fictional characters with healing powers"? ♥ Her Pegship♥ 00:30, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
That sounds perfect to me. ~Zythe 00:49, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
I would say jc's on the right path, but they could all (including cryo-) be changed to "Fictional manipulators of (X)," where X is one word. I would suggest those words could be air, weather, time, cold, plants, earth, electricity, energy, magnetism, light, and darkness. (Fictional magical healers might be a good choice for the other one.)--Mike Selinker 12:09, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Max Evans isn't magical. Neither is Shawn Farrell or Elixir (comics). I also don't like the "fields of force" which should just be "fields". ~Zythe 12:47, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
No problem with removing "of force". (It's just a more technical usage.)
As for removing "characters who can", I disagree, else you will have Captain Cold's cold gun, and a host of other objects added to the cat.
How about "Fictional characters with _____ powers", as per Her Pegship's suggestion for healing above? Drakhan 03:35, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
Plant powers, time powers? I don't think the convention would work as well. Of course, we could make the names even longer: "category:Fictional characters with the power to manipulate x" (presuming you like the word "power" in the cat name), or "category:Fictional characters who have the ability to manipulate x". (I think the latter is the most accurate.) - jc37 05:49, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
