The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 17:34, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per
WP:SMALLCAT. Categories contain only 2-3 articles and aren't likely to significantly grow in the near future. No opposition to recreation if more articles exist. User:Namiba 13:33, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply

Category:Fictional female ninja

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: keep. This is not "no consensus", because the rationale against the nomination seems to have persuaded the later participants. – Fayenatic London 10:50, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per main article kunoichi and marking it as a specific gendered occupation. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 08:17, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename per nom for correct term. No Great Shaker (talk) 12:48, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename per nom. To match the main article. Dimadick (talk) 16:14, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose renaming the common easily understood Category:Fictional female ninja into a name most won't recognize or be able to pronounce. This is why we don't call ninja by the more proper name of shinobi, we go by common easily understood by English speaking audience names.

    Then please start an
    female ninja. If so, I will have no problem leaving the category as is. Of course, you and I both know that is heavily doubtful to succeed. If that is the case, why should the category be a different name than the main article? ZXCVBNM (TALK) 08:40, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply

    Did you actually read that article? Calling these fictional characters kunoichi would be a very clear case of
    WP:OR. - jc37 15:20, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • Oppose per rationale provided by Dream Focus. Haleth (talk) 02:10, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, most articles in this category about American fiction use "assassin" or "female ninja" while the few articles about Japanese fiction use "kunoichi". Marcocapelle (talk) 04:44, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose following the argumentation of Dream Focus. I think it's good that kunoichi is linked in the description (which could be expanded by a short explanation, if this is deemed helpful), but ninja as category name is much more helpful for persons like me. - I sure have seen ninjas featured in (American) pieces of fiction, but had never heard of that term before.

Category:Fictional sportspeople by gender

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: keep. – Fayenatic London 10:37, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per
WP:NONDEF, gender is not defining for fictional athletes unless the occupation is gendered (there is a category for that already). Category:Fictional female ninja should be renamed as Category:Fictional kunoichi, marking it as a specific gendered occupation, and thus it is defining and should not be deleted.

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Mental and behavioural disorders. – Fayenatic London 10:35, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The current category name is in a strange subset format that I haven't seen elsewhere on here. ~ฅ(ↀωↀ=)neko-channyan 05:58, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. I checked the members and they are all Indo-Trinidadians, except for one who I re-categorised as being of that descent. – Fayenatic London 09:19, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I've never really been sure what to make of this category, since there's no
WP:OR. Guettarda (talk) 03:57, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply
