However, since this article is uncited it's not really useful for merging – instead copy it to the Talk page of whatever becomes the comprehensive article on this (possibly in a collapsed template so it doesn't hide other Talk page contents).

recent creation - this is the same as Posy (given name no need to fork Gugrak (talk) 05:20, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Oppose. This particular article is distinct because the spellings are different and the name is probably also related to the surname. If anything, this particular article should be merged with Posey (surname) into one article called Posey (name) as I originally intended. See the talk page. Bookworm857158367 (talk) 05:26, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Merge to Posy (given name), as best solution for the readers, who will probably know if something is a given name or a surname, but may not always be certain of the spelling: having the similar first names all on one page is then the easiest. Whether the given name is related to the surname seems to be pure speculation. Fram (talk) 06:56, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    The two people listed under the Posey article are both men and both use the same spelling as the surname, which has multiple origins per the cited source. I don’t have the sources for the bios of these men handy, but it would not be surprising if Posey was a mother’s maiden name or a surname belonging to a family friend or some other family member, as is typical for such usage in the 19th century. Someone can probably find the documentation. As a female name, it is referring to a flower or a nickname for Josephine or Rosemary or Rosalind, etc., per the cited sources.

WP:N; unnecessary based on precedence. We've never created entire pages of reactions for elections as far as I can tell, even for larger nations such as the USA and France, or similarly regional powers such as Argentina. The only remotely similar article I can find deals with that of Belarus in 2020, which was deemed notable due to the divided claims of victory and massive protests following.

The article contains again mostly listicles/rankings and passing mentions. The only useful source per WP:BEFORE was maybe this [6], thus still failing WP:GNG. GlatorNator () 00:30, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSCHOOL. Few sources, and those few are low quality. Content at this time is almost entirely promotional and largely a screed lauding the accomplishments of one person. Geoff | Who, me? 00:05, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Delete. Article fails WP:NSCHOOL and there are only 3 sources in the entire article. More than that, the article is very promotional and could probably be CSDed for that alone. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 00:35, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Keep. Almost certainly notable, but the copyvio text taken from https://hshec.org/welcome/university_details/68 needs to be removed. Eastmain (talkcontribs) 00:51, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    I would like to hear your opinion on the neutrality of the article, particularly this paragraph:

    The PLC SUPVA campus is spread over 36 acres of land, beautifully designed by world renowned architect Raj Rewal, with a healthy and verdant campus. It is centrally located in the state of Haryana, at a distance of about 75 kms from the national capital, 90 kms from IGI Airport, New Delhi and about 200 kms from Chandigarh, and is well-connected with the road and railway network. With magnificent buildings and state-of-art infrastructure, it has spacious seminar halls, laboratories, workshops and studios, well-equipped with latest machinery, equipment and IT infrastructure.

    I think it’s very promotional and that’s another reason it should be deleted. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 01:25, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Comment. This earlier version of the article omits the copyvios and has more references, but also has some inadequately referenced criticism of the university and its vice-chancellor. I'd suggest reverting to that older version and removing the unreferenced criticism. Eastmain (talkcontribs) 01:07, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    Honestly I don't think the prose in that version is much better. It's very critical of the organisation, and is very poorly written. We have both sides of WP:NPOV, however I think the refs in the version you linked push it towards Keep but WP:TNT. JML1148 (talk | contribs) 02:04, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Categories[edit]

NEW NOMINATIONS[edit]

Category:Cypriot monarchs[edit]

Nominator's rationale: WP:CATSPECIFIC to make clear "Cypriot" does not refer to the nationality of any monarch (originally) from Cyprus who may have reigned over some other country, but that "Cyprus" was the country reigned over by the monarchs in question (the Suggestion B principle). Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 10:17, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Category:Heads of state of Austria[edit]

Nominator's rationale: Redundant layer. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 10:09, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Comment: Shouldn't Category:Emperors of Austria also be under there somehow? But if there's agreed intent to separate modern countries from their historical predecessors in such categories, then go ahead. --Paul_012 (talk) 10:21, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Category:Anyone (band) members[edit]

Nominator's rationale: This category had four members. Two, I could find no citations saying they were ever in the band. The other two (Davison and Hawkins) were in Sylvia, a predecessor band, rather than in Anyone, and their membership is a pretty obscure part of their histories and fails WP:CATDEF. I have thus removed the category from all 4 articles. We now have an empty category, which should be deleted. The Anyone article is a mess, with concerns over paid editing. Bondegezou (talk) 09:55, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Category:Four sons of Horus[edit]

Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT, there are no standalone articles on each of them - all are mentioned and redirected to Four sons of Horus. That article is already inside Category:Groups of Egyptian deities. Brandmeistertalk 09:04, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Category:Education in Jämtland[edit]

Nominator's rationale: Nine categories for the category Category:Mid Sweden University and Swedish Defence University. Category:Education in Sweden by county categories would have the possibility to grow as there are more than 100 articles on different schools and universities. An alternative is to delete all as both are in Category:Universities and colleges in Sweden. Jämtland County instead of Jämtland as all articles are about education during Counties of Sweden era and not Provinces of Sweden era.
The intention is the result should be: Category:Mid Sweden University to Category:Education in Jämtland County, Category:Education in Västernorrland County, and Category:Sundsvall (already in the two other city categories); Swedish Defence University to Category:Education in Jämtland County and Category:Östersund.

Category:Aces[edit]

Nominator's rationale: For clarity, to specify what sort of Aces it refers to. Anomalous+0 (talk) 08:17, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Category:Thai Industrial Standards[edit]

Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer since the target is nearly empty. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:37, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Leaning keep (as category creator). I'm seeing this as a set category covering a topic notable by itself. Maybe I should get around to writing the article for the parent organisation the Thai Industrial Standards Institute, which would help make the category scope clearer. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:22, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    On the other hand, I could do without the parent layer, since the sole member Thai units of measurement isn't about a regulated standard and doesn't really fit there. It was created much later, and before then the Thai Industrial Standards cat was directly parented under Standards by country. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:29, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Category:ISIRI standards[edit]

Nominator's rationale: delete and move the three articles to Category:Standards of Iran, per WP:SMALLCAT, the category is mainly populated with redirects to the same list article. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:33, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Assistant Attorney General[edit]

Retarget all to Attorney general. The United States federal government is hardly the only entity to have assistant attorneys general. In cleaning up incoming links to these redirects, I easily found more than a dozen specifying assistant attorneys general for other jurisdictions. BD2412 T 05:45, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Death of Nintendo[edit]

Redirect from a film title to one individual cast member within it. This is generally a bad idea, and a film title should always be an article, a redlink or a redirect to its director if an article really can't be supported, and never a redirect to one individual actor in its cast. Bearcat (talk) 17:17, 14 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Delete: Per nom. Redirects going to the director is what I've generally seen and it makes more sense than targeting an individual actor, so I wouldn't be opposed if someone wanted to argue the director should be the target instead. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:56, 16 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Redirect to Raya Martin as director. The film has shown at Tribeca. The creator Valerie Castillo Martinez does not have a Wikipedia page yet. AngusW🐶🐶F (barksniff) 22:46, 17 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Democratic planning[edit]

Inappropriate target · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 05:56, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Retarget to Democracy - I think this is the best available target, unless someone has a better proposal. I feel there might be some article about how community planning is done by democratic voting, like the "Questions" that appear on some ballots, but I'm not sure. Democracy seems like a safe pick. Fieari (talk) 06:50, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    Redirect to Economic planning#In socialism or Economic planning "Planning" in this context tends to refer to economic planning, not to general structural operation. "Democratic planning" is a term used by various democratic socialists, libertarian socialists, and Trotskyists to describe a planned economic system which operates on a democratic basis. I didn't realize this was a double redirect, but regardless the end page describes democratic economic planning in this sense, even if it also includes information about undemocratic economic planning.

God - The Single[edit]

Not helpful, very vague, I suggest deletion. Veverve (talk) 04:14, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Keep - Google suggests this is an unambiguous target, and it's a plausible search term for someone using copy/paste from one of the various sources that describe it in exactly these terms. Fieari (talk) 06:53, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Templates and Modules[edit]

Template:British and American English terms not widely used in Australian English[edit]

This is article content intended for use as a table in two articles, but since it uses the navbox template, it is not visible in mobile view. It should be converted into a table or list and placed in one of the articles, from which section transclusion can be used to include it in the other article if necessary. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:15, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

If it should go anywhere of those 2 articles then it is Australian English vocabulary. However, the content should be reformatted as either prose or an actual table and not that mess. Also, this seems a bit WP:OR but I haven't checked it too deeply. Gonnym (talk) 07:37, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Template:Iris Kyle[edit]

This navbox is used in only one article, and it is more a summary of one person's achievements and associations than a set of articles that should be mutually linked to one another. It should be deleted, with all relevant and sourced content moved to the parent article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:10, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
