Nominator's rationale: An obscure rebellion doesn't merit a category. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:26, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Good point. I solved this problem by adding the article to four additional categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:58, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People by sexual orientation

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: rename. MER-C 09:20, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose renaming Category:People by sexual orientation to Category:LGBT people by sexual orientation
  • Propose renaming Category:Men by sexual orientation to Category:LGBT men by sexual orientation
  • Propose renaming Category:Women by sexual orientation to Category:LGBT women by sexual orientation
Nominator's rationale: There is no "Heterosexual people" category and never will be, therefore it makes more sense to name this for all the LGBT people contained, doing so would avoid confusion.★Trekker (talk) 15:09, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename as nominated, without prejudice to future nominations regarding the second comma. MER-C 09:21, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't have a personal view on the second comma. If that is how it is always done, then it should be applied here as well. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:20, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Works about Jacques Lacan

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 09:24, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Only one article, unlikely that there will be sufficient contents to justify a category in the near future. The article should simply be listed in the two parent cats. Anomalous+0 (talk) 00:18, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Two articles do not really belong in this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:40, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I only see two articles that look like they can properly be described as "Works about Jacques Lacan". The others fall short in my estimation. Anomalous+0 (talk) 12:06, 22 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. MER-C 10:17, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per long-standing WP:FOOTBALL consensus, at category level we do not differentiate between youth and senior - see this (which resulted in this) and this and this (the latter two both about this category). As such the category should be merged with the parent category and then deleted. GiantSnowman 16:43, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Transformers human characters

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Transformers characters manually. MER-C 10:25, 22 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category only includes seven pages, two of which are already nominated for deletion, one is a redirect and two are in fact G.I. Joe characters instead of Transformers characters. The only surviving articles will be Ginrai and Carly Witwicky at most. So there are simply too few pages to deserve a separate category. Delete this. JIP | Talk 08:28, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • If the category is not kept, most of the content should remain within the Transformers characters tree, right? Do you have any specific suggestions about this? Marcocapelle (talk) 18:07, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 10:15, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Empty category (WP:EMPTYCAT). We had six standing committees, which have been upmerged to Category:Committees of the Senate of Canada in a bold move. I wasn't sure if eligible for CSD #C1, so thought it best to run it through CfD. Friendly ping to Bearcat. Doug Mehus T·C 02:33, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Anti-fascists by ethnicity

The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 10:26, 22 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The only two subcategories are for Jews, who are considered a nationality as well as an ethnicity. I'm not convinced that ethnicity/anti-fascism meets WP:OCEGRS, but nationality definitely does. buidhe 18:48, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
