- The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Food retailers of Algeria. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 17:49, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Supermarkets of Algeria to Category:Supermarkets by country
- Nominator's rationale: Category containing only a list article, unhelpful for navigation. AusLondonder (talk) 19:34, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Dual merge, also to Category:Food retailers of Algeria. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:53, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - no need to upmerge as that is a container category, and the only contents of this category are already in Category:Lists of supermarket chains by country. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:50, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- Fair enough, but still merge to Category:Food retailers of Algeria. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:35, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: To match the naming convention in Category:Internet memes by country. Iostn (talk) 17:33, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 17:49, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Both depreciated and no longer used anywhere on articles. Both stub templates have been replaced with more specific stub templates for the various types of football articles. The Football-stub was being used on one article which I removed it from and replaced it with a more relevant one. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:05, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Organisations based in Latvia by city to Category:Organisations based in Latvia and Category:Organizations by city
- Propose merging Category:Companies of Latvia by city to Category:Companies of Latvia and Category:Companies by city
- Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer, only contains the capital Riga. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:12, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- The above is preserved as an archive of the discussion. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
Category:Film scores by composer
[edit]- 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: rename (non-admin closure). JJPMaster (she/they) 22:29, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Film scores by composer to Category:Films scored by composer
- Propose renaming Category:Film scores by composer nationality to Category:Films scored by composer nationality
- Propose renaming Category:Film scores by women composers to Category:Films scored by women composers
- Nominator's rationale: The current name does not reflect the category’s content. It includes articles about films only, not about scores or soundtracks. The current state also creates issues with transitivity. Solidest (talk) 10:55, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Rename, aligning with the format of all subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:51, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. Tijd-jp (talk) 14:51, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure). JJPMaster (she/they) 17:25, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: merge, only two articles in the category, this is not helpful for navigation. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:04, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Support per nom. SMasonGarrison 22:19, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:1954–55 Montreal Canadiens season
[edit]- 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: soft delete. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the category's undeletion. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)Talk to Me! 23:16, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: I could not find any other example of a professional sports team season getting its own category in any of the Northern American major leagues. There seems to be no other examples of a category being made for this even under similar circumstances (e.g. the Vancouver Canucks where all three of their finals appearances have the loosely-related articles of Towel Power (1982), 1994 Stanley Cup riot, and 2011 Stanley Cup riot). It is inconsistent and seems to fail WP:OVERCAT. RedBlueGreen93 08:01, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

- Propose splitting Category:Translators of the Quran into Somali to Category:Quran translators and Category:Translators to Somali
- Nominator's rationale: underpopulated category. 2x merge for now SMasonGarrison 02:57, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Just delete, I don't see anything about translation in the article. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:54, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- I'm fine with deletion. For the record, the creator @QalasQalas has made comments on their talk page about the category.SMasonGarrison 22:16, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Marcocapelle Please don't delete it because in a draft biographies page translated from Wikipedia Arabic to link this category, @Smasongarrison thanks. QalasQalas (talk) 22:50, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- That's not a reason to keep a category. SMasonGarrison 23:12, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:January 2005 events in Africa. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)Talk to Me! 23:33, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:January 2005 events in Puntland to Category:January 2005 events in Somalia
- Nominator's rationale: Convert into the broader country rather than the state SMasonGarrison 02:38, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:January 2005 events in Africa, which is also very underpopulated. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:56, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Even better. SMasonGarrison 22:16, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- The above is preserved as an archive of the discussion. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the 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 (non-admin closure). JJPMaster (she/they) 22:32, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Wikipedia:Overcategorization#Intersection by location. Also, there is only one page here, which isn't helpful for navigation. SMasonGarrison 02:33, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nominator.Lost in Quebec (talk) 14:46, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, we do not put articles directly in death by location categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:58, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). JJPMaster (she/they) 22:32, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: There is one page about an event here; there is not even an eponymous page Mogadishu Central Prison SMasonGarrison 02:29, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:59, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination and also delete Category:Prisons in Somalia, the parent category, which only has the nominated category as a member. Gedrose (talk) 19:53, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Merge for now. Narrow underpopulated category. SMasonGarrison 02:18, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Certainly merge to Category:Antarctica research agencies, per nom. I wonder if the article belongs in the second merge target though. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:01, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- My thinking is that the subject being studied by these agencies etc would be about Astronomy in the Antarctic SMasonGarrison 22:18, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Redundant category layer SMasonGarrison 02:00, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Isolated category. There's only one state like this, it's not helpful for navigation SMasonGarrison 01:58, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure). JJPMaster (she/they) 17:42, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:State urban development authorities of India
[edit]- 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: rename (non-admin closure). JJPMaster (she/they) 17:42, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Of the 64 articles in the category, only 7 are state authorities. The rest are a mixture of city, town and metropolitan area authorities. It would make the category name more accurate by removing the "State" identifier Gedrose (talk) 01:19, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. Also re-parent to Category:Government agencies of India instead of state agencies. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:10, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: repurpose to Category:Buildings and structures in Obama, Fukui. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 17:55, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Unhelpful for navigation. There's not a Obama City parent category SMasonGarrison 14:26, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Alternative: repurpose to Category:Buildings and structures in Obama, Fukui, there are quite a few articles in Category:Obama, Fukui that could also be moved into a buildings category. If merged, dual merge also to Category:Obama, Fukui. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:15, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Kenton, Devon to Category:East Devon District
- Nominator's rationale: Category containing only the main article and an article about a historic property, better categorised in the district category. AusLondonder (talk) 17:44, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Merge
per nomto Category:Teignbridge per below. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:00, 2 November 2024 (UTC) Marcocapelle (talk) 09:13, 10 November 2024 (UTC) - It may have scope for expansion as its quite a large parish but it may be better to wait until we have more articles. Note that the target should be Category:Teignbridge not Category:East Devon District as Kenton is in Teignbridge district[1]. I made an error back in 2018.
