Nominator's rationale: I feel like this really isn't a purposeful category, as describing things by geometry in this broad a manner seems rather odd, and something I suspect we shouldn't do. I think in most situations this is either
trivial. Perryprog (talk) 21:27, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply

Nominator's rationale: Death from lung cancer is common and not defining. We certainly dont need to subdivide countries like this. Maybe we should delete the country categories too? Rathfelder (talk) 19:58, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, a far too common cause of death, nothing special about it. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:05, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Following merger of the century categories at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2022 August 14. ā€“ Fayenatic London 18:23, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You might add Category:8th century in Chile in to this mix. It's the only pre-modern century category for Chile. Liz Read! Talk! 21:58, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just delete -- There are three articles between the two categories. An establishment c.1000 AD should not be classified as if it were established in 1000. The two Bolivian items existed c.1000-c.1500, which is primarily 2nd millennium. The Peruvian item existed 800/200 BC to 1000/1470 AD. Both categories should be empty. No objection to changing them to 2nd millennium and merging to that South America category. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:32, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • You are right, 2 of the 3 articles belong in the 2nd millennium rather than in the 1st. I have recategorized both of them. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:38, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Category has been emptied. Liz Read! Talk! 03:51, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • I have also moved Acaray to 2nd millennium, so the Peru category is now also empty. There is no need to merge the 2nd mill categories by country to South America, as they will be kept since they also contain C19 and C20. ā€“ Fayenatic London 21:48, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Parent category is Category:Films by topic, and all sibling categories in Category:Films by topic by country are named "topic" instead of "subject" except for these two. Bearcat (talk) 17:56, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge all per nom. * Pppery * it has begun... 15:41, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge all but to Category:Bandar Seri Begawan. The content is two athletics events and one summit, in a city in Brunei founded in 1906. This is not enough content for a history category, for which there is no main article. Possibly also upmerge to parallel Brunei categories. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:37, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge, as far as I know we never categorize Villages by municipality. The municipality parent category is otherwise almost empty, so it will not get overcrowded by adding the villages. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:59, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale:
MOS:GEOCOMMA stipulates that geographical locations separated by a comma should have a comma following the parenthetical if words follow it. Thrakkx (talk) 03:50, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply

  • @
    WP:CFD. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:51, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply
    ]
    • @Marcocapelle: tagged them. Could not get them to link to the discussion because I am a day late. I can only manually enter the section name, not the date. I also removed 11 that were either renamed to have the comma already or are redirects (or both). Thrakkx (talk) 19:51, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Thrakkx: thanks, you can still edit the category pages now and change the date in order to link them to here. I will do the first one for you. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:28, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        @Marcocapelle: thanks; fixed. Always a struggle doing these administrative processes for the first time. Thrakkx (talk) 21:31, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. It seems a bit pedantic, but I guess that it should be done. You should just have done it. Nobody would have objected. --Bduke (talk) 06:07, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Just do it" wouldn't work. The articles need to be moved to the new category names and via CfD that will be done by a bot. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:11, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    ... but this probably could have been done through CFDS as a C2A. * Pppery * it has begun... 15:41, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
