Category:Bishops of Verden

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. – Fayenatic London 18:01, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: A redundant layer. For the bishops of Verden, there were only Catholic bishops. There were no Lutheran bishops. The category Category:Roman Catholic bishops of Verden already exists for the Catholic bishops. While there were Lutheran Diocesan Administrators, they were not bishops since they were not ordained. The Lutherans were Prince-Bishops but not Bishops. Both Catholic and Lutheran Prince-Bishops jointly have Category:Prince-Bishops of Verden as their parent which is correct.
