categories be changed to something different. If there's a consensus on CFD, then so be it. The point of starting with where we are now is to avoid the two step process where we agree and then we have the same discussion in the broader community. Since it's really the broader community that matters, I don't really think there's much point in attempting to bring our "baby steps" to consensus (and I think we're reaching the point where "he who argues longest wins"). Assuming we institute the rule I've proposed (or something similar), the next step is to take any

arbitrary, and/or instruction creep. KISS principle, you know. For a good example thereof, refer to the recent CSD proposal and compare reactions to proposal 1 (relying on common sense) to those to proposal 2 (relying on statistics) or 4 (relying on strict limits). Now I'm not saying this to be argumentative - I'm saying this because the earlier poll, and existing categorization, and common sense, and NC precedent, all indicate that most people think this is a good idea. So no need for further bureaucracy, let's move on and make it actionable.
3148:. However, here is a further thought. Similar to that vote over the European template, we could enshrine the proposal above whilst concurrently opening a poll which would require a 70% consensus either way to enact a standard. The poll would not be closed until such a consensus has formed. This allows discussion to take place and allows an ongoing vote and debate whilst allowing CFD to remain clear of the issue. As soon as one position reaches 70%, that position becomes the standard and all categories fall in line.
1584:, for those I think "of" makes most sence (DĆ©partements of France rater than DĆ©partements in France), and they are not realy natural objects anyway, but rather man made administrative units so I think those should not be listed alongside rivers and volcanoes. This class also have the additional "problem" of possebly also making sence to categorise by continent, island (in cases like Ireland and other divided islands) or maybe by faultlines and such (volcanoes), but I guess that's a debate for another time. --
367:"Any categories that go to speedy renaming to be standardised to the agreed format will have a two-day window in which users may state why the category is an exception to said standard. If there is valid objection to the speedy by at least two users, each of these users having been registered before the speedy nomination was made, the category gets the remaining 5 days. Inappropriate reasons include "I want." Appropriate reasons include factual accuracy and length."
664:. As to the procedure for making any standardisation we can agree on a criteria for speedy renaming, since that is the purpose of any standardisation, why do it in two stages? For me it seems just as easy to kill two birds with one stone. I'd also point out that the standard that one wishes to apply would certainly need a consensus. But frankly, I am wearying of this, as it seems we are more intent on filibustering each other than we are on moving forward.
2662:
presenting of lists is something I would still feel obliged to do were we proposing by meta-category, so this seems an admirable compromise to me. It is all well and good tackling all the categories we can agree on, but then we have to tackle the ones we can't agree on, and then we have to present them to the community, and this idea of getting the standard supported first and then agreeing the standard after the event on CSD is a useful idea.

for overlaps, I generally leave those up to the people who work on those categories to decide what is appropriate, but the advice in the "Dealing with overlaps" section seems useful. I submit it for your approval or dismissal if you think it shouldn't be a part of the convention.

1652:), changing from "of foo" requires renaming 541 categories. Assuming 5 articles per category (I haven't counted the articles, but I'd guess this is the right order of magnitude) and that Pearle runs at her nominal rate of 10 seconds per edit (she's been running 3-4 times slower than this lately), means it would actually take about 7.5 hours to do these. The setup time might be 5 minutes, and perhaps that's what you're referring to. --
3258:, and if anyone wants to discuss that I propose they take that into account first. I also object to the fact that a poll should be held to determine if there's a consensus for preferring "American topic" or "United States topic" in category naming, when I am in the process of re-igniting that debate. Could we please talk things through here before we make wholesale changes to anything?
3854:. Also, if of Russia refers to the modern day country, how do we refer to the historical country of Russia, and with the category of England, do we refer to the whole of English history, or things as they are now? Do we need to implement historical categories into the structure, as in England (800-1200)? As an example of what I am thinking, recent boundary changes have moved

Is there an option I'm not seeing? --

It is also far too messy, I would suggest, to have Monarchs of England and so on. This one might need to either be exempted or thoroughly discussed separately.
541:, the wording will need to be less risky. At the moment it sounds like "should we do it this way?". If the answer's yes, that's ok, but if it's no, we don't have anything.

This does seem, fairly explicitly, a proposal to change nothing and admit no consideration of changing it. I'm still not persuaded of any particularly good reason why that's the thing to do.

No, I believe it was something in between. We propose Rick's suggestion which produces a temporary standardization with the way things are.

Ok. (Don't look so surprised.) I think there is a crucial clarification in what Rick Block says that means I can go with this.

Whether it's "of foo" or "in foo" seems relatively arbitrary, and with a bot it would take us all of five minutes to change the lot of them if need be, so there's no need to stick to the status quo (which is also an arbitrary one).

Well, no. You're basically proposing a policy to not do anything. That seriously doesn't require a policy. Also, the previous poll was somewhat confusing as to the usage of "American" vs. "United States" as an adjective. We should definitely hold a poll determining that, since it's a frequent issue

Sorry, but I am struggling to understand what you are saying here. There is speedy renaming for categories, I've used it. Also, my understanding of what we are doing here is this: There are categories which categorise by country or nationality that people wish to standardise, and currently do so

I agree that the simpler we can make such a rule, the better. Note that even using the list approach, we'll be renaming some things. By my counts (see above), the lists apply to 1440 individual categories with a total of 107 using names not following the existing predominant conventions. Other

By "CFD renaming consensus" I mean the normal CFD process (as it applies to category renames). We already have some of these that pertain to more than one category. The idea is that anyone, at any time, could suggest the convention for some "fooish x", or "x of foo" (or whatever) grouping of

In both cases, I think it is the community (rather than us) that will ultimately decide what changes are made, which leads me to question the rationale for further discussion here. Why would we do #1 when #2 will likely have the same outcome but skips the step where we agree to a non-binding

Hmm I tend to agree with you on Islands, they seem to require special treatment (what to do with island nations or divided islands). I think "rivers in country" is fine though. For border rivers just put it in both categories, you would have the same problem using "of" in that case anyway.

Fair play. The issue hadn't been raised for a while, I didn't really notice any discussion of it, to be honest, and this suggested itself as a nice compromise. It would be nice to have thoughts on the compromise, but I shall kick it back into the long grass.

Whichever standard we agree on, we will eventually have to rename something. "Non-controversial" does not have to mean "entirely matching the present situation". Now personally I think that if something is obvious enough, there is no need to put it to a vote

Given the way the wiki works, a proposal "do not nominate such-and-such for renaming" is likely to be ignored (or even be unseen) by many. We have several such issues (e.g. the AD/CE debacle) and saying that people should ignore it does not make it go away.

Yuk. No need for the quickpoll. We'll get ourselves deleted. We're doing fine as we are, I think. Moreover, as has been pointed out a few times now, any poll we make among ourselves is overriden as soon as we conclude it by taking it to the community.

I do believe that the point is (after Rick's lines) that we have no standards now and propose them (as we have here). The intent should not be that the standard is to keep to precedent, and attempt to change that standard. For reasons of bureaucracy.

Personaly I don't see the need for the "man made" distinction though, I would be quite happy with things like "rivers in country", "mountains in country" and such too, but I guess it's best to do this in "baby steps" so we don't drown in exceptions.
