Nominator's rationale: "Animal Institute" does not make any sense. I'm not sure if these various institutes genuinely share a discipline, though they are all focussed on animals. Josh Milburn (talk) 22:44, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Delete. The lone page (Farmersville Islamic cemetery) is already in Category:Cemeteries in Texas and Category:Buildings and structures in Collin County, Texas. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 02:57, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Only 1 article Rathfelder (talk) 20:28, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Upmerge - we don't need this category and its redlinked parent (Category:Farmersville, Texas) just to hold a single article (or even to hold 2 articles, if we add the city's primary article into the parent). If/when we have several articles about buildings and structures in the city, we can recreate it. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 07:51, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Rename. I will create a ((category redirect)) so that either title will work. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:08, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Possible WP:ENGVAR issue, but with some complications. I'm the original creator here, but I did so only because the category was already sitting on some of the articles as a premature redlink, so I did so at the spelling that the link was using without really noticing that it might be questionable. The articles here, if they use the word "neighbo(u)rhood" at all, are all using the or spelling, although the main article on Sierra Leone uses our in "neighbouring" -- and Sierra Leonean English helps not a whit, containing no information whatsoever about whether "British" or "American" spelling would be considered the correct ENGVAR in a Sierra Leonean context. And although it is part of the British Commonwealth, its history and culture does also have much deeper ties to American influences than any other country in the region save Liberia -- so it's not inherently obvious that British Commonwealth automatically means British spelling. What's needed is explicit evidence of which spelling is actually considered normal in Sierra Leone, not just an assumption about which one could be inferred from its international diplomatic memberships.

  • Propose Deleting Category:Recipients of the Star of the Solomon Islands
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:PERFCAT and WP:OCAWARD (WP:NONDEFINING)
When foreign heads of state visit the Solomon Islands, they receive one of these souvenirs from the government as part of the official welcome. I don't see how prime ministers of Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea are defined by an award from this country. Of the 4 people in this ccategory, zero are from the Solomon Islands. If we delete this category, the recipients will still be listed here. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:26, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Note: Notified AusTerrapin as the apparent category creator and I added this discussion to WikiProject Solomon Islands. – RevelationDirect (talk) 02:26, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose Deleting Category:Civil awards and decorations of Indonesia
  • Propose Deleting Category:Recipients of Indonesian civil awards and decorations
Nominator's rationale: Per the spirit of WP:C1, an empty category.
This is really just a cleanup nomination since these categories only contain one article in total and it's miscategorized. (The recipients of civil award categories are for subcategories of specific awards, not individual biography articles.) If and when actual content appears, no objection to recreating either category. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:24, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
