Comment Anybody who can explain why this "tracking" category has been made? I just don't perceive any serious usability. Explainable? Has it lost or has it still got any usefulness?? --Just N. (talk) 15:45, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Listify as a user page then delete -- The old Dictionary of National Biography apparently had initials (rather than names) for the contributors. This appears be a tool for Rich Farmbrough's research to apply their names to articles. This may be of use to him; I do not know. However, it should not be a category in main space. This refers to the old DNB (replaced by Oxford DNB, published 2004). The old DNB is now out of copyright so that it is available in Wikisource, whereas access to Oxford DNB is restricted, by a need to log in. Peterkingiron (talk) 13:00, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Not sure which policy is most relevant but these aren't ethnic enclaves in Australia. Australia doesn't really have ethnic enclaves, it has areas with higher proportions of migrants of various ethnicities, precincts of cultural establishments, majority-Malay external territories, and Aboriginal Australian communities which aren't described as ethnic enclaves. This category is not fit-for-purpose. Onetwothreeip (talk) 04:05, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. This argument could apply to several other countries which have similar sub-categories. I think it depends on how literally the term "ethnic enclave" is taken. Does it mean an official designation of some kind or is it just a loosely used expression for an area that has a large number of residents with common ethnic origin?

Those aren't ethnic enclaves though. They are city precincts which have a high concentration of Chinese commercial establishments, like restaurants. Onetwothreeip (talk) 02:45, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- The category needs a headnote defining its scope. In some countries there is a tendency for immigrants from a particular country to choose to settle in an area where there are others of their (expatriate) ethnicity. In many cases this will mean that a high proportion of the population is of that ethnicity. In strict terms this is not an enclave, but does any one have a better term for it? Peterkingiron (talk) 17:32, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete the WP article on Ethnic enclave is primarily from a US point of view. In my opinion, the term enclave has a negative connotation in Australia. There may be a better term to use than "Ethnic enclave". LibStar (talk) 02:53, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This is really a subject for speedy deletion but is there anyone out there who wants to explain how this is not how categories are created? It is a list. OK, best just to look at it. Doprendek (talk) 01:46, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Last I saw that category page, it was not a list. It was a category with article entries, and was a child category of two other relevant parent categories. I do know that Utah is known for having an unusually high concentration of local MLM companies. I can't comment on whether or not this category should be deleted on its merits as a category, but the list is not the category but appears to be a later addition. - Gilgamesh (talk) 05:15, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
