:'''Nominator's rationale:''' [[:Category:Wikipedia naming conventions]] is for naming conventions that are [[WP:PG|Wikipedia guidelines]]. Its subcategory [[:Category:Wikipedia naming conventions proposals]] is almost entirely populated by defunct proposals marked as stale or historical, but there are also a few current WikiProject advice pages and information pages mixed in. These aren't guidelines, so don't fit the scope of the parent cat. But they also aren't proposals, and it isn't helpful to have current advice pages grouped in with decades old failed proposals. The recent history of [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Brussels)]] illustrates the gap. I moved it from the parent cat to the proposals subcat on the basis that it isn't a guideline. {{u|RGloucester}} removed that category because it isn't a proposal. {{u|Sam Sailor}}, presumably seeing no relevant categories, re-added it to the parent cat.-- [[User:Trystan|Trystan]] ([[User talk:Trystan|talk]]) 00:37, 23 April 2026 (UTC) |
