Please don't remove people from non-diffusing parent categories

[edit]

Australian women psychologists are also Australian psychologists. See WP:EGRS [1] Mason (talk) 12:15, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've gone back through some of your edits, but you have a lot of edits. Please review the policies for categorizing women, ethnicity minorities, and other "more specific" categories. And please revert the removals you made. The categories even have instrustrions saying that the people belong in both. For example, "This is a non-diffusing subcategory of Category:Australian fashion designers. It includes Australian fashion designers that can also be found in the parent category, or in diffusing subcategories of the parent." Mason (talk) 12:32, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Laura Hale - even if there are signs of having edited in the past, no longer exists on wikipedia - and the user page and talk page should have reflected that. JarrahTree 03:12, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cricket articles, PROD and AfD

[edit]

Hello. I'm not sure how aware you are of this, but there's a long-term consensus that where possible cricket articles can be redirected to a suitable list - perhaps with a note added to summarise content - as a valid WP:ATD.

There was also some discussion - tied up with the whole re-write of NSPORTS - about whether or not a quantitative matches limit was appropriate for cricketers - i.e. whether or not having played >= X matches would suggest that an article about a cricketer would be notable. It was impossible to reach any kind of conclusion - it's just so dependent on coverage rather than the number of matches. Although the number of matches can help to indicate that the coverage is or is not likely to exist, it's so dependent on other factors. I'd be concerned, therefore, in regards to your deletion rationale for the PROD I just removed from Cameron Brimblecombe. Iirc I've also commented on at least one AfD in the last 24 hours with the same sort of rationale - that only playing one match is not a suitable numerical qualification.

This is directly tied to NSPORTS which is clear that the quality of coverage is what matters, not the number of matches someone has played. Your rationale should be that you have considered the coverage. Brimblecombe's name isn't particularly common; it didn't take long to do the search required. There's some coverage, but not much, and at leats some of that is behind a paywall unfortunately. I don't think anyone would object to a bold redirection to List of Queensland first-class cricketers, perhaps with a note summarising the prose statement at the article added. That would, in my view, save everyone a tonne of time where there's little chance of notability being found by sources. You could always check with the cricket project about particular teams or eras - for example, Trove is such a valuable source about historical players that articles can often be written showing multiple sourcing; the same is true of New Zealanders and Papers Past, whilst some English counties have excellent prose source coverage of players, even those with only one or two appearances.

I'll leave you to redirect Brimbelcombe for now. I'll watch this page for 7 days; should you want to get my attention after that you'll need to ping me. Blue Square Thing (talk) 08:52, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
