The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the stub template and/or category above. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the template's or category's talk page (if any). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the debate was delete

Unproposed, badly named stub template with its own category despite severe size problems - it currently contains nine stubs (less that 1/6 of the threshold number), and those that it does contain are mostly, well, at best somewhat esoterically related to Canadian royalty, shall we say. I can see no reason why a horse race in Hong kong even counts as a Canada-stub, let alone a Canada-royal-stub, and of the remaining eight stubs, two are only tangentially Canada-specific and five are not about royalty. Royal-stub tyles are generally for biographies of members of royal families and for descriptions of specific royal titles. For the most part, Canadian royalty is identical to UK royalty, and as such almost all relevant stubs are correctly and more effectively marked with UK-royal-stub. Only one current stub seems to qualify for this template and is Canada-specific: Canadian Secretary to the Queen. One stub which could use a correctly-named {{Canada-royal-stub}} is far, far too few to make such a template worthwhile. Delete, or, failing that, rename and upmerge the template, losing the current name. Grutness...wha? 22:38, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This one may rely on the outcome of a current CFR, but we have a mismatch between West Midlands (county), West Midlands (region), and the stub category names. The current permcats are Cat:West Midlands (undergoing CFR) and Cat:West Midlands (region). I'd like to suggest the following renames:
