The result of the discussion was: delete. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:18, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: While it's certainly true that the IRA had people within the organisation that dealt with intelligence, I can find very little evidence such a body ever existed with that name. This shouldn't be confused with Category:Irish Directorate of Intelligence personnel which contains some overlap with one of the categories, that organisation did actually exist and was responsible for, amongst other things, collecting intelligence on the IRA.

The result of the discussion was: rename. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 18:13, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: That's what it's called now. Georgia guy (talk) 17:08, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • It was discussed, at speedy. The rename followed the article rename. This said, I rather agree that it is better to have subcats (for the films) which agree with historical names. Oculi (talk) 19:25, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom and 20th Century Studios. Oculi (talk) 19:25, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support (with split). I think it is wise to record films as being produced by the company that produced them, rather than a successor that happens to own the brand today (often not using it). Peterkingiron (talk) 15:32, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment. Peterkingiron, you're implying that 20CF and 20CS are different companies, not the same company at different times in history. Georgia guy (talk) 15:38, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Rename. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:29, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Remove the unnecessary disambiguation Western Australia from name and bring in line with parent article Shire of Waroona as well as all other Western Australian Shire articles, which also don't have Western Australia in their name. Calistemon (talk) 14:06, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, this does not require a disambiguator. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:14, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support but the headnote should be amended to refer to Western Australia. I commonly have to dig several layers down to find out what a category is about when participating in CFD discussions. Peterkingiron (talk) 11:17, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 18:18, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The associated main article on Wikipedia is Survival skills, not Survival. Books focused on avoiding execution by an authoritarian state are not well grouped together in this category. Such a book is about survival, but not survival skills.
