The idea of having separate categories Category:ISO C89 standard, Category:ISO C99 standard, Category:ANSI C standard is very good, and so is the idea of having them all listed under Category:C standards, but I don't see the point of having this intermediate category. Delete and recat the contents in Category:C standards. --Quuxplusone 04:30, 27 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

About half of these characters are still technically supervillains, several of them never were villains and were only manipulated into fighting the good guys once or twice, and a number of villains who reformed and then reverted to type aren't included. No way for this to stay up to date; easier to categorize characters who have definitely been villains into Category:Marvel Comics supervillains and those who have definitely been heroes into Category:Marvel Comics superheroes (if they aren't in subcategories of the relevant categories already). Also, incorrect capitalization. Delete. -Sean Curtin 04:02, August 27, 2005 (UTC)

  • Operation: Rename
  • Reason: Scope of Category's articles and content is greater then the title allows for. Thus changing from Australasian --> Oceanian. This should also facilitate the moving of other articles into a more appropriate category. POds 01:44, 27 August 2005 (UTC);[reply]
  • Hmmm... it's a little more complex than that. Several of the countries aren't in Oceania, true (and in some which are often called Australasian the term is disliked), but Australia isn't always grouped in with Oceania, either. Category:Australian and Oceanian rugby league would cover all the bases, despite being more cumbersome. Grutness...wha? 07:40, 27 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Well according to wiki, Australia is in Oceania, although, a bit like the term Australasia, it may mean different things to different people. But we have the benefit of being able to tell people what it means on wiki, by a simple --> link:Oceania. I think Oceania pretty much covers it. Do we get to vote on this? Shouldn't we be using the discussion page for talking? POds 12:19, 27 August 2005 (UTC);[reply]
Talk related to possible voting is fair game here, and any comments relating to how a categoiry should be renamed is related to any possible votes. If there's no problem with the term Oceania including both Australia and PNG (which to this New Zealander sounds quite odd), then my vote would be to rename. Grutness...wha? 23:18, 27 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
If there are categories, Europe and Oceania, which there would be if this renaming went a head, those looking for Australia would know to look in Oceania. Australia is known as the worlds largest island after all and it is part of the Pacific. It should be put to a vote and then the people of the world can decide... How and when is that done? POds 03:08, 28 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Yeees, but for every person who tells you that Australia's the worldd's largest island, you'll get one who tells you it's the world's smallest continent. And if Australia is not always classed as Oceania, then that goes doubly for Papua New Guinea. And "island/part of the Pacific" could just as well mean Taiwan or Japan, and you wouldn't get many people considering them Oceanian. Having said all that, I'd agree that Category:Oceanian rugby league (note the added n) is probably the best name. Grutness...wha? 02:29, 29 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Rename to Oceanian rugby league, the wiki article says that Oceania is the area we a re talking about. Grinner 19:23, 29 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Is there a reason why we need this broader category? Why not just have rugby leagues by country, as in Category:Australian rugby league, Category:Papua New Guinean rugby league, etc.? These could be part of Category:Rugby league by country, instead of the further subdivision of continent/region. -- Reinyday, 20:08, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
    • A fair comment, although given that some teams from new zealand and (ISTR) PNG play in the Australian league set-up, it may have a use. Separating by country may indeed be a more sensible way to go, though. Grutness...wha? 01:05, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well, I think it began as a way to make the categories neater. In fact, I don't like the naming of categories, "Australian Rugby League" and others the like, because they are the names of organisations. I think the best way to go would be to have a set of Categories such as, "Rugby league in <Country>", like the set of articles I've started to create. Then we'd move almost all of whats in the "<Country> Rugby League" categories to the new "Rugby league in <Country>" category, except for articles and sub-categories like New South Wales Rugby League, Queensland Rugby League etc. That's what I was almost going to propose a few weeks ago, but it just seemed far too bold :). Or, we could just move those set of categories to the new proposed set. POds 02:08, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Also, it may not warrent categories such by each country as of yet because, like those countries in the pacific, there wouldnt be enough contributors to populate the categories. They'd sit dormant for quite a long time. Puting in the Region I guess cleans things up at the top level and whilst keeping all categories useful. POds 02:14, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ok all. And i didnt notice the difference between oceania and oceanian, thanx. I've changed the above to point that way. POds 02:08, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
