Propose merging Category:Baseball tournament squads to Category:Baseball team rosters

Nominator's rationale: Not much of a distinction between the two categories. The categories would benefit from a merger as they are very closely related. WP:OVERLAPCAT. –Aidan721 (talk) 17:45, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Aidan721: correct me if I am wrong but it looks like these are tournament rosters rather than team rosters. Or is this distinction not relevant? Marcocapelle (talk) 05:46, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Aidan721: see above, apparently my first ping did not reach you. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:18, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oops sorry, must've missed it. I just feel as though the distinction between tournament rosters and team rosters is not very relevant, and there is neither category is very large to necessitate a separate category. –Aidan721 (talk) 17:08, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Merge - It seems that the subcats (and sub-subcats) of Category:Sports squads seems to vary between the use of "roster" and "squad". And I think it's clearer to keep the teams assembled for a particular tournament, separate from teams assembled for league play. - jc37 10:42, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: rename aligning the category names per precedent in this discussion. Currently some categories use "academics", others use "faculty". "Academic personnel" seems a proper new alternative. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:30, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose- I must say that I object to a cfd closure which adopts a term found nowhere else in the tree and not mentioned in the nomination. The nomination should have been relisted with the new proposal which I would have opposed. Oculi (talk) 12:32, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Jc37, Rathfelder, Piotrus, Peterkingiron, Necrothesp, Renata3, UnitedStatesian, and Place Clichy: pinging closer and other contributors to previous discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:18, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'll happily treat this as a request for clarification.

In the discussion, the use of "faculty" was opposed overall. And not only was Academic personnel proposed and supported in the discussion, but we should follow the main article name (see also WP:C2D), unless there is an over-riding consensus - which in this case, there clearly was not.

I hope this helps. - jc37 00:26, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support, more clear. Also we need more participation at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_July_29#Category:Scholars_and_academics. TIA. -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by Piotrus (talk • contribs)
Oppose- Julia Serano was an academic personnel of UC Berkeley but she was not a faculty member. Sharouser (talk) 15:50, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If researchers at a university are not included in the term "faculty" then that is all the more reason to move away from the term "faculty". Marcocapelle (talk) 04:56, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- This is important. The issue of whether a person is included as a faculty member is very rarely mentioned in an article and we do not have a high level category to put them in.Rathfelder (talk) 08:45, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support, and discussion on the rest of the countries can follow after this one is closed. The main article is at academic personnel because the meaning of "faculty" depends on one's geography, and the categories should follow the same logic. UnitedStatesian (talk) 20:33, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support -- Finland (being in Europe) is more likely to use British than American nomenclature. American analogies are unhelpful. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:35, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
