Nominator's rationale: Rename Opposed speedy request; for categories, matching the article title trumps WP:COMMONNAME of WP:CONCISE concerns. UnitedStatesian (talk) 15:26, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
These are conflicting concerns and I'd like to explore other ways of addressing them. Perhaps renaming the article to "UK Research and Innovation (UKRI)"? Yaxu (talk) 16:13, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
In case it's a COI concern, I should add that I am close to the subject as I hold one of these fellowships. Yaxu (talk) 16:15, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Really, any type of percussion instrument can and has been used in a marching ensemble. The only instruments really endemic to this category would be instruments listed on the actual page, "Marching percussion". Why? I Ask (talk) 13:07, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: I'm currently torn over whether to actually add the missing people to this category or just delete it outright. Personally, I'm leaning toward the latter, as it's too niche a category. Why? I Ask (talk) 11:41, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
OPPOSE Seems like one more attempt to remove anything havingt to do with drum corps... All of the people in the category have Wikipedia articles and are heavily involved in the actiity. GWFrog (talk) 16:10, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@GWFrog Please don't misconstrue this as an attack against drum corps. I have been working to improve Thom Hannum's page and am looking to create Scott Johnson's page, both of whom are heavily involved with drum corps. However, I just doubt that this category is of much use (and that it may indeed break WP:OC). Why? I Ask (talk) 00:16, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
