The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure) (t · c) buidhe 21:04, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Not needed. Entries can simply be upmerged to Category:Indian cuisine. Note: I've nominated Category:Indian restaurants outside India as well. --Another Believer (Talk) 18:18, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Indian restaurants outside India

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: keep. (non-admin closure) (t · c) buidhe 21:04, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: There's no need for this category; entries can simply be upmerged to Category:Indian restaurants. Most restaurant categories have subcategories for countries but not "outside [X country]". Unnecessary and inconsistent. --Another Believer (Talk) 18:14, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. – Fayenatic London 12:52, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge, in both categories many articles are "Family of" someone. Purge what does not belong. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:14, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 07:26, 6 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

College basketball tournament champion seasons

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: no consensus. After nearly two months, we have minimal participation and no agreement. (non-admin closure) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 01:11, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: These are not defining traits of these seasons. SportsGuy789 (talk) 18:44, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm vocally neutral here. These categories are incomplete, but if we have articles on each team season and each conference championship tournament, it feels reasonable (and sufficiently defining) to have these categories. User:力 (powera, π, ν) 03:07, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I have populated both categories so that they are no longer incomplete. –Aidan721 (talk) 00:17, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The idea that they are not defining traits is the WP:POV of the nominator.-UCO2009bluejay (talk) 02:48, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It is a conference championship. Just like anything in Category:College football conference champion seasons. Again, how is it not defining?-UCO2009bluejay (talk) 01:20, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Head coaching record tables have long had a shaded parameter for coaches that won a conference tournament, not to mention the automatic bid to the NCAA tournament that accompanies it?-UCO2009bluejay (talk) 01:23, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
To be honest I'm not super-anti-tourney championship categories, but they did strike me as unnecessary. I'd like some other editors' input on this before the administrator closes it, because this CfD discussion will be the precedent to which WP:CBBALL points if any of these kinds of categories are nominated for deleted again.

The result of the discussion was: rename per Option B, using "family". – Fayenatic London 12:17, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Group 1

Group 2

Group 3:

Nominator's rationale: The subcategories under this tree were previously renamed from the House of Foo format to Foo family following a previous CfD from 2017, in which I argued that the former was not used by reliable sources. Polyesterchips has challenged this, and has since created a few new categories under the House of Foo title format. I'm assisting him in opening this CfD to establish consensus either way for consistency. Polyesterchips, please provide your reasoning below. (Note that Category:House of Mahidol was not included in the previous CfD; as the reigning royal family, it might warrant separate consideration.)

The result of the discussion was: rename. ✗plicit 01:23, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: rename and populate, the current scope is too narrow as only two countries have their own dyslexia support article. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:20, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
