The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Angolan LGBT people. Will merge manually. (non-admin closure) Cremastra (talk) 17:02, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Egyptian women writers and Category:Writers from Cairo. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:11, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Non-defining intersection between city, occupation, and gender. There's no need to add gender to the mix. If not merged, it should be renamed to "Women writers from Cairo). Mason (talk) 22:49, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:YearInCountryPortalBox with no existing country portal

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Rename in the spirit of WP:C2D per ((Year in country portal box)). It does not qualify for CFDS because it I only renamed earlier today per WP:TPN (which says we should use standard English spacing for template names), so I am bringing this to a full CFD.

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:19, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I created this cat, but I am on the fence for keeping it as a separate cat or merging with Category:American militiamen. Before trying to populate it further, I'm initiating this discussion to get additional opinions to determine if it should remain as a distinct category. Provincial troops in America, before gaining independence, were generally used in units raised by provincial governors and have differences as noted here. In some cases, provincial troops as loyalists would oppose militiamen during the American revolution. Should this remain a separate cat or merge with American militiamen? Semper fi!

  • Propose splitting Category:British North American Anglicans to Category:Colonial American Anglicans and Category:British North American Anglicans
Nominator's rationale: Split between Colonial America and British North America categories. Most of these appear to be Colonial Americans pre-American Revolution; British North American was formed AFTER. Split between the two categories. Alternatively: Delete; majority of the people living in British North America and Colonial America were Anglicans so its WP:NONDEF (I prefer this but wasn't sure -- so two options).
