Nominator's rationale: "Related-" is ambiguous and its not clear what the category is for. Is its songs about LGBT people? Songs with LGBT in the title? Songs about LGBT love? Many of the songs don't have any LGBT specific lyrics or connotations e.g. "Cool for the Summer" by Demi Lovato is included because she featured a pro-LGBT t-shirt in one performance. Equally "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)" which attracted some controversy for being transphobic, but was clearly written and released in a time when things were different socially. Having such a broad topic is problematic as its unclear what qualifies a song to be included. >> Lil-unique1 (talk) — 19:44, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge/delete as nominated. However, I examined the articles and eponymous sub-cats and found that they were all from Al-Andalus, so I have moved them into the corresponding Andalus sub-cats. – Fayenatic London 12:53, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge/delete, Moors is an outdated and ambiguous term that may refer to the Muslim population of Al-Andalus, or with Morocco, or with the rest of northern Africa. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:23, 5 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Surnames of East Prussian origin

The result of the discussion was: delete. – Fayenatic London 12:59, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I have my doubts about many of these "surnames by culture" categories (and most entries in them), but let's start by this one. The two entries are sourced to this, which is a wiki, not a reliable source. East Prussia existed roughly from 1773 to 1945, there is no evidence that these surnames are from there or then (most surnames are older than that). The cat is a member of the cat Category:Old-Prussian language, but that language became extinct in the early 18th century, or 50 years or so before East Prussia was founded. Basically, it is an unreliably sourced mess (just like most cats in this tree). Fram (talk) 09:21, 5 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge and redirect. bibliomaniac15 17:04, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge (or reverse merge) per WP:OVERLAPCAT, the Aghlabid dynasty almost exactly covered the 9th century. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:18, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: ~This category layer is not very helpful, as it contains only one article and three sub-cats, which are already otherwise interlinked in various ways. Manually merge it to its parent and sub-cat. – Fayenatic London 15:23, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: I would argue that "HD-2D" is a marketing term, not a legitimate graphical style. It has not been adopted by any game developer besides Square Enix, despite similar games existing elsewhere for a very long time (the Disgaea series uses the style as well, just minus the fancy lighting). It could be renamed to "Video games that combine 2D and 3D graphics" but that might still count as overcategorization without a relevant primary topic article. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 03:17, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
