January 27

Category:Real Americans

Offensive and divisive. Delete. Owen× 23:42, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Category:OverClocked ReMix Site Projects

Hi, I'm a staff member at OC ReMix (see bottom), so I'm looking for a speedy deletion if possible. We only had a handful of albums, which I felt didn't need a category, so a while back I made a template instead and only just recently depopulated this category. Thank you. - Liontamer 21:51, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Category:Scientific hoaxes

This category is a strange (and far from complete) mix of weird research, real scientific fraud and jokes. They have nothing real in common and therefore this is not a real category. In addition, the word 'hoax' is certainly not applicable for denominating scientific fraud or disputed research. I suggest deletion, especially since for scientific fraud (this most important one of the subjects) there is already the article Scientific misconductCpt. Morgan 21:06, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Category:Articles with Wiktionary pages

A pointless and completely unnecessary category of no use whatsoever that just adds clutter to categorisation systems. — Dunc| 20:30, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Category:Boy Scouts of America controversy and Category:Boy Scouts of America controversies to (he didn't say what)

Both emptied, blanked, and partially afd'd by Rlevse. Listing here so that they get dealt with. Neutral. —Cryptic (talk) 15:30, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Coastal towns

Category:Towers and Masts in Philadelphia to Category:Towers in Philadelphia

Discordant with all the other categories in Category:Towers in the United States. Rename Merchbow 05:39, 27 January 2006 (UTC).

Category:Arizona parks to Category:Parks in Arizona

The odd one out in its category. Rename Merchbow 05:29, 27 January 2006 (UTC).

Category:Parks and squares of Philadelphia to Category:Parks in Philadelphia

A follow up to the item below. Squares which are open as public parks can stay in it. The proposed name matches the others in Category:Parks in the United States Rename Merchbow 05:28, 27 January 2006 (UTC).

Category:Streets in Philadelphia to Category:Streets and squares of Philadelphia

Contains 4 squares (added by yours truly). Should match up with the others in Category:Streets and squares by city. Rename Merchbow 05:25, 27 January 2006 (UTC).

  • Oppose, In Philadelphia, the term square, in general usage, rarely refers to a street but to a park, see Town square. Also the names of the streets that even surround these squares are rarely all named, if at all, after the square, from which they take their name, the only two major, if that can even been said, exceptions to this are Rittenhouse and Washington Square, but this only refers to the streets on the Southern and Western borders of the square. Their are also several other squares that have yet to have articles abut them they are not associated with streets, i.e. Weccacoe Sq, Head House Sq., Independence Sq. (not Independence Mall). --Boothy443 | trácht ar 06:21, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
