(using Template:Message) RDC: This category does not meet the criteria for deletion. The reasoning provided: "Too generic and horrible" is inapt, incorrect and lacks sound, formal reasoning.
- This category is not generic
The term generic is employed here improperly. Calling this category generic would imply that it pertains to a large class or group of things, but it clearly doesn't. For example: 'Flu' is used as a generic term for viruses, but category and/or glossary do not classify as generic because they are, by nature, inherently specific. - Calling this category horrible is biased and unacceptable.
Pages should not be marked as a candidate for deletion through bias. Not only is this partisan, but this also forces unmerited opposition which could have been easily prevented through basic impartiality.
I believe that it is in our best interests that this issue is solved diplomatically. So, if you disagree with the above information, then feel free to provide your counterargument below. Else, make sure to promptly remove the delete template from the associated page.
If a counterargument cannot be provided within an apt timeframe, then the delete template will be removed regardless. --Mailmanmicky (talk) 2:07, 9 Apr 2023 (UTC)
