New York politicians

[edit]

We have both Category:New York politicians and Category:Politicians of New York. Presumably they should be merged, but in which direction? Other similar categories are inconsistent. --Jmabel | talk 01:30, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, they should be merged. I'd lean towards using "Politicians of New York", as the "(Occupation) of (place)" form seems more commonly used. -- Infrogmation 01:45, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Does anyone mind if I request the following moves:
Rename Category:New York politicians to Category:Politicians of New York (0 entries moved, 0 to go) Warning: Please add a reason. Warning: Username of requester missing (user parameter). For transparency and to prevent abuse, please add your username.
Rename Category:Florida politicians to Category:Politicians of Florida (290 entries moved, 0 to go) Warning: Please add a reason. Warning: Username of requester missing (user parameter). For transparency and to prevent abuse, please add your username.
Rename Category:Maryland politicians to Category:Politicians of Maryland (51 entries moved, 0 to go) Warning: Please add a reason. Warning: Username of requester missing (user parameter). For transparency and to prevent abuse, please add your username.
Rename Category:Politicians from Ohio to Category:Politicians of Ohio (75 entries moved, 0 to go) Warning: Please add a reason. Warning: Username of requester missing (user parameter). For transparency and to prevent abuse, please add your username.
That way, we'd have consistency within Category:Politicians of the United States by state. --rimshottalk 13:59, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
