[edit]Category:Lists of Governors of Turkey

- The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Lists of political office-holders in Turkey. bibliomaniac15 20:10, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Lists of Governors of Turkey to Category:District governors of Turkey
- Nominator's rationale: Only contains one list. If renamed to district governors, we can add Kaymakam (main article) and Hasan Hüseyin Can. All the other members of Category:Governors (Turkey) relate to provincial Governor (Turkey). – Fayenatic London 12:13, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Also merge the current member page into Category:Lists of political office-holders in Turkey. – Fayenatic London 08:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- Surely support the latter: merge to Category:Lists of political office-holders in Turkey per WP:SMALLCAT. The former (keep but rename) is more questionable because District governor seems to be a very minor office. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:32, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Indian literature by language. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 21:33, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Small and limited category. We already have categories for Indian literature and Indian literature by language. PepperBeast (talk) 13:52, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Not WP:SMALLCAT, but this is a meaningless intersection of literature and legal status (WP:TRIVIALCAT). –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 19:05, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:Indian literature by language, this does not concern a defining characteristic of literature. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:55, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Merge -- This is essentially a poor duplicate of Category:Indian literature by language, which is a container. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:38, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

[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: delete. bibliomaniac15 05:34, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Category for the sake of a category, as far as I can tell. PepperBeast (talk) 13:50, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Yeah, this is weird. I don't think there's anything about languages that have a distinct writing system that imbues those languages' literatures with any unifying characteristic. Just a kind of non-sensical category as far as I can tell, although I'd be glad to be proven wrong. Delete unless someone can explain this. VanIsaac, GHTV contWpWS 17:58, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:Literature by language, this does not concern a defining characteristic of literature. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:54, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete -- I do not see any clear characteristic worth of a category. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:40, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Peterkingiron, any reason not to merge? — Qwerfjkltalk 21:47, 4 December 2022 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Indian literature by language. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 21:35, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Trivial category PepperBeast (talk) 13:42, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:Indian literature by language, this does not concern a defining characteristic of literature. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:56, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Merge -- The akademi may or may not be significant, but there is no need to distinguish languages according to what it think of them. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:42, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: manual merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 21:37, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Military history of the Almoravid dynasty to Category:Almoravid dynasty
- Nominator's rationale: manually merge (move the battles subcategory directly under Almoravid dynasty, but not the generals because they are already in a people subcat). Redundant category layer with only two subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:16, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 21:38, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: "Diplomats who were scholars where they worked" is legitimate information for a description, yet insufficiently defining for a category. gidonb (talk) 05:43, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:TRIVIALCAT. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:45, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Neutral I created the category. I fail to see the usefulness of the objection, but I will not fight this. I will let others decide, though I expect very few votes. Pete unseth (talk) 22:51, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:Capital Crusaders men's soccer to Category:Capital Comets men's soccer
- Propose renaming Category:Capital Crusaders men's soccer coaches to Category:Capital Comets men's soccer coaches
- Nominator's rationale: The sports teams at Capital University were renamed from Crusaders to Comers in 2021; see https://www.dispatch.com/story/news/education/2021/09/30/capital-university-retires-old-mascot-become-comets/5935690001/. Jweiss11 (talk) 04:11, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Rename in the spirit of WP:C2D. This could not have been speedied though because, strangely enough, there is no article Capital Comets. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:51, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page discussions. GiantSnowman 09:56, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Rename to match new name. GiantSnowman 09:58, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Nehwon. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 21:42, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT with only one article. I would also support an upmerge to Category:Nehwon which isn't very large either. Jontesta (talk) 00:10, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:54, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 21:43, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT with a single article. It is unlikely that many articles can be created that would meet the Wikipedia policy, and Category:Buffy the Vampire Slayer is sufficient. Jontesta (talk) 00:08, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. There is no need to merge, the article is already in the parent category too. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:56, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Agree with nominator. Pete unseth (talk) 22:53, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete -- The one article is adequately categorised. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:48, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
