Opposed speedy rename request
edit- Category:Classical studies to Category:Classics – C2D. MClay1 (talk) 06:13, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose, pinging MClay1, classics is ambiguous, see Classics (disambiguation), so existing name is better. TSventon (talk) 06:23, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- @TSventon: Classics is the main topic, which is why there is no disambiguation on the article. The category should match – that's the point of C2D. If you believe there should be disambiguation, you should start a move discussion for the article at Talk:Classics. Whatever the outcome, the article and category should match, and until anything changes, the category should be moved. MClay1 (talk) 06:28, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Mclay1:, WP:C2D applies only to proposed names that are unambiguous and uncontroversial. Proposals to remove a disambiguator should go to full discussion, where I would oppose the change. TSventon (talk) 06:37, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- @TSventon: As the original author of C2D, I don't agree with the wording of that criterion, but you're right. I feel like it completely defeats the point. The proposed name of this category is no more ambiguous than the name of the article. MClay1 (talk) 06:41, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
