Category:Philip Wylie

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 ). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete. Those who defend the category have not explained why this category defies the usual application of
WP:OCEPON. A large number of pages within sub-categories does not provide a rationale to keep a sparsely-populated parent. – Fayenatic London 14:25, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply

Nominator's rationale:
WP:OCEPON --woodensuperman 08:06, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply

Even the "other" subcat, Category:Films based on works by Philip Wylie, belongs quite properly in Category:Works by Philip Wylie, which I have just added as a parent. Ordinarily, I would have gone ahead and finished the job by removing the redundant parent, Category:Philip Wylie, but I left it there purely out of consideration for this discussion. The bottom line is, Category:Works by Philip Wylie is absolutely all that is needed to provide a home for all of the subcategories. Keeping *this* category would fly in the face of The.Most.Basic. of all criteria for creation of valid categories, eponymous or otherwise. Anomalous+0 (talk) 10:30, 11 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • These films can very well be a subcategory since they are based on these books. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:38, 15 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Merge articles by quality

Nominator's rationale: Categories for the WikiProject Merge assessment department, a department that never got off the ground and never tagged a single article. Trialpears (talk) 12:16, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Not quite true that the project "never got off the ground or tagged an article".
    Template:WikiProject Merge Copied from the relatively few Talk: namespace pages that transcluded them in January 2016. EXAMPLE. See the bottom of this version to note the cats it populated. I made a few edits that depopulated these categories, but then I never got around to putting them up for deletion. In any event assessing "quality" and "importance" represents too much "scope creep" for the merge project. There should be some sort of triage to prioritize merges by need. Parallel biographies of the same person should be given high priority for merging, regardless of the quality or importance of the article itself. It's unclear whether "importance" refers to the content or importance of the article itself, or the importance of the need to merge it. – wbm1058 (talk) 19:43, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply

Nominator's rationale: I don't find it necessary to have two categories with MSNBC associated people. Most people in the "MSNBC people" category are current or former hosts/analysts. Merging these people in with the above category should be appropriate. Tinton5 (talk) 01:30, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
