September 9

Category:Kentucky high school football

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:Religious Symbols

Category:Religious Symbols to Category:Religious symbols

Category:Bionicle species

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)

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.
