The result of the discussion was: administrative close: appears to have been withdrawn in favour of this discussion. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:42, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Ordained Christian women and its child cat Female Christian clergy and religious are a category within Category:Clergy. For consistency reasons, women who aren't clergy (i.e. nuns) should be taken out and the category can simply be named for 'clergy' (i.e. without 'religious').

It sounds a bit complicated, but it is in fact simplifying, because it saves one category and it results in a shorter and easier category name. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:59, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This could be an alternative, though personally I'd prefer the name of Female Christian clergy, because the other child categories of Category:Clergy are also with 'clergy' in it. (Question on the side, if we would only delete Female Christian clergy and religious category, wouldn't we first have to manually upmerge the single articles that are currently in the latter, or is that done automatically too?) Marcocapelle (talk) 05:37, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Don't agree to the latter suggestion. The general categorization structure is currently different than that, there is:

So the categorization presumes that clergy are (as such) not religious leaders. This makes sense if you take into consideration that, for example in the Catholic Church, priests are clergy while popes are religious leaders. So this distinction between clergy and religious leaders would imply that we would also have female clergy and female religious leaders next to other.

BUT this structure also shows an immediate flaw in the current categorization, since Ordained Christian women are now a child of (general) Clergy! Instead there should be 'Female clergy' as a child of 'Clergy' and 'Female Christian clergy' as a child of 'Christian clergy'.

That means that my proposal of June 1st is not good enough and therefore I withdraw it.

:* Propose upmerging Category:Hierarchs to Category:Religious leaders

Nominator's rationale: The two categories seem to serve the same purpose. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:34, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Even better:

Nominator's rationale: The two categories seem to serve the same purpose + this category only contains Christian subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:11, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There's only 6 Buddhist single articles that need to be moved to Buddhist religious leaders, that can be done manually. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:15, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT. Small town category with just two entries, one of which is the town. The subcategory is up for merging, and with only three entries, a merge is likely. That leaves this category with just two pages. Not enough. ...William 17:22, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: These two categories currently contain just one article. If kept these should be renamed to correct capitalization. DexDor (talk) 16:00, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: WikiProject Sailor Moon was recently absorbed into WP:ANIME per Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Anime_and_manga#Closing.2Fmerging_Wikipedia:WikiProject_Sailor_Moon.

Nominator's rationale: Too little content: subcats are interlinked and so is main article. This serves no purpose in navigation. —Justin (koavf)TCM 07:43, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Category of an event that is not yet fully formed. Kailash29792 (talk) 02:09, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Only one film was actually released, a lot of things can go wrong before DC can make something similar to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and we don't know in advance if they will be able to do it. For instance, Green Lantern was a big failure. Cambalachero (talk) 13:12, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
