The result of the discussion was: dual merge (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 18:52, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Not enough content to justify a. Can't be merged further because the atranes don't fit anywhere but in Category:Heterocyclic compounds (3 rings). –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 21:57, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Holocaust deniers by nationality

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 all into Category:Holocaust deniers only. bibliomaniac15 17:32, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category:Holocaust deniers is overly diffused by nationality into many subcats by nationality, mostly with 1 or 2 pages. However, there are enough articles in the entire tree (including larger subcats by nationality) to justify a subcat for all European countries. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 21:50, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: speedily deleted WP:G7. – Fayenatic London 21:10, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose Deleting Category:Rattan Lal
Nominator's rationale: Category only has one page. Not worthy of creation to begin with. No other articles or mainspaces exist on Wikipedia for there to be a category for this individual. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 20:56, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. ✗plicit 13:58, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, we do not categorize "celebrities" per WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. Besides, one might argue that everyone who is notable and gets an article in Wikipedia is by definition a celebrity. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:19, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, let's do that. A small number were indeed notorious. Chiswick Chap (talk) 02:19, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename. The subcategories were not properly tagged, so they will go through WP:CFDS. ✗plicit 13:58, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The main article was moved from Sierra Nevada (U.S.) to Sierra Nevada in April 2020. The category (and all other Sierra Nevada-related categories) should also be moved for the sake of consistency. Crossover1370 (talk | contribs) 07:13, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Journalists of Pakistani descent

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. ✗plicit 13:58, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Non-defining triple intersections of nationality, occupation and ethnic descent. If a journalist is British or Canadian, then having a Pakistani ethnic background is not defining of their work as a journalist per se -- if they're a dual citizen of both Pakistan and either Britain or Canada, then they should certainly be categorized as both a Pakistani journalist and a British or Canadian journalist, but there's no value in trisecting all three traits.

  • Propose Deleting Category:Old Mills and Granaries in Bydgoszcz
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCLOCATION)
Most of this category contains street articles: Grodzka Street in Bydgoszcz goes past an old mill and granary, a bank, a church and a Holiday Inn hotel while Stary Port Street in Bydgoszcz goes past an old mill and granary, a post office, theatres, docks, and a sculpture. (The third article, Mill Island in Bydgoszcz, is actually about old mills and granaries in Bydgoszcz but it is now well categorized.) This is not a workable way of categorizing streets because of the category clutter it would eventually create. - RevelationDirect (talk) 01:03, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 17:56, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose Deleting Category:People associated with Ostróda
Nominator's rationale: Per the spirit of WP:C1, an empty category, and WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCASSOC)
Ostróda is a city in Poland and we've had the standard Category:People from Ostróda category although, as we recently discussed, even those "from" cats can be a bit ambiguous. This category takes that free association and embraces it by categorizing two football players (1, 2) neither of whom played for the local team or even mention this city in the articles so they shouldn't be in this category. I'm sure the category could be expanded with people who have various loose associations to the city but that runs smack into WP:OCASSOC. - RevelationDirect (talk) 01:03, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
