Nominator's rationale: Category for a long defunct basketball team which contains only the team article, the two arenas in which it appeared, and a 9 article players category. User:Namiba 10:37, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Deletion: Perfectly legitimate category. Thousands of similar categories on Wikipedia. Why pick on this one ? Djln Djln (talk) 13:06, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No one is questioning the "legitmacy" of this category, only whether it is proper for a defunct basketball team (the only one from its long-defunct league, by the way) to have a category.
  • Weak keep. Four articles now, plus subcategory with ten. That's enough for a legit category. Grutness...wha? 14:08, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It is questionable whether the stadium articles should even be in the category. Occasionally playing in a certain arena is non-defining. Besides, does this defunct team category have a "realistic potential for growth" as defined by
WP:SMALLCAT?--User:Namiba 19:41, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply

Reasonably populated? It has 2 articles besides the main article.--User:Namiba 12:19, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- despite its small size. If it were not for two other articles, I might have suggested combining into the players category. I can see a lot of merit in doing that, but it would be necessary to find a way of having their coach and arena in a players category, which would be an innovation.

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 05:52, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Just an unnecessary container for three subcategories of Category:Norse mythology. Basically no opportunity for expansion. There are no other parent cats nor does it fit within an established category tree. Upmerge contents. MClay1 (talk) 06:50, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

*Oppose, I think the category is justified. It can't be the number of possible expansions that determines whether a category is valid.--Berig (talk) 06:58, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
