Nominator's rationale: merge per
WP:SMALLCAT, only 1, 2 or 3 articles per category. A second merge target is not needed in the former four cases, where all articles are already in a century subcategory of Category:People of Ifriqiya
.
If not merged, rename "Tunisian" to "of Ifriqyia" per
WP:C2C and per consensus in this earlier discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:49, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply

I added two categories more on 29 August. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:03, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support all these. Tunisia didnt exist then. Rathfelder (talk) 21:12, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, but better to rename to Foo of the medieval Islamic world. Just Islam is very inprecise, better to use the full medieval Islamic world. --Privybst (talk) 20:33, 1 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Renaming the targets requires a separate discussion and I notice you meanwhile started that discussion elsewhere. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:58, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge per

Subcats of Category:Ukrainian raions abolished during the 2020 administrative reform‎

The result of the discussion was: merge/delete all. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 14:23, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
more former raions
more former raion subcategories
Nominator's rationale: delete, there is nothing wrong with parent category Category:Ukrainian raions abolished during the 2020 administrative reform‎ with 369 articles about former raions. However, a limited (58) number of these former raions have their own categories populated with current things (populated places and football clubs, mostly) and that does not make much sense. Current places and football clubs belong in a category of a current administrative division, not a former one. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:42, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Current places should not be categorised by their former administrative master. 15:56, 28 August 2022 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Laurel Lodged (talk • contribs)

Nominator's rationale: I see absolutely no point to this category. It collects articles with no relation to each other except for a word. It is of no use to navigation whatsoever. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:32, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose It is a long-standing social class. Dimadick (talk) 06:06, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Indeed it was. But it's not being used for people who were in the social class, which is highly subjective in any case. It's just being used to collect all articles which have "yeoman" or "yeomen" in the title. We don't usually keep categories like that. What's the point to them? -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:19, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but purge of people. I cannot see why Kincard is in this at all. Broughton ought to be in a regimental category for King's Body Guard of the Yeoman of the Guard. I recall reading that yeoman of the signals was a role in the British navy and would need a subcat, if it could be populated. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:11, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Yeoman (disambiguation) in article space. There are too many completely different uses of the word yeoman to merit a category. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:06, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
