Commons:Categories for discussion/2023/06/Category:Novak Đoković
Move to Category:Novak Djokovic per Commons:Categories § Category names: Category names should generally be in English
. Here the non-English name
is not more commonly used
in English (for example, "Đoković" appears in just two of the hundreds of English-language source titles cited on his enwiki page, both of them published in the Balkans). This category was created back in 2007 and discussed by just a handful of users in 2013-2016, but there was no consensus (2–1 for moving; the 1 closed the discussion). Pinging the active users from back then, @Kacir and Achim55. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 14:51, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
Agree per nom and above. But, why hasn’t anything been done since this was unanimously agreed back in 2023?

- Agree per nom. At what point can we just move all the categories? Since it's been unanimously agreed on already, can we just move it now? QWisps (talk) 07:05, 21 July 2025 (UTC)
- Categories are useful to find images. Whether A redirects to B or vice versa B to A makes no difference. I personally prefer the original names in the birth cert/original language. But I don't care which way is chosen. --Achim55 (talk) 15:06, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
- Agree – per nomination. Djoković is the expected form of the surname. IMO no one but Serbs will search for a name like Đjoković. BTW, Djere was moved on en wiki in April 2023. Kacir (talk) 19:45, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
- Category:Naomi Ōsaka and Category:Martina Navrátilová are related categories with nonstandard (for English) diacritics. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 04:30, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
- Agree – per nomination. This was two years ago... whay hasn't it moved. Everything Novak Djokovic does in English as spelled Djokovic. His foundation, instagram, facebook pages... his official registered name with the ITF, Davis Cup, and ATP. Every English press article. Why on earth would we use a Serbian Spelling here? Long overdue to move, along with the subcategories and related topics of Osaka and Navratilova. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:06, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Agree per nom and above, use the English name which is represented by usage on the English Wikipedia entry. DankJae 23:13, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
