Category:Bangladesh under-23 cricketers

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. ]
Nominator's rationale:
WP:NOTDEFINING, as Bangladesh under-23 have played 5 matches in their history according to Bangladesh national under-23 cricket team (and 2 of them weren't ranked as proper matches anyway). Under-23s cricket teams are not a common feature of cricket (unlike e.g. men's football, where the Olympics has under-23s teams), and so this category is unnecessary. If this category is deleted, then its parent and grandparent categories will be empty, so can be deleted too. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:39, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply

Category:German female erotic dancers

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: No Consensus to merge/delete. - jc37 02:34, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The members of this category may have given performances that might today be called "erotic" but that is not a defining characteristic of any of them. I propose moving them up a level to Category:German female dancers to better encompass the range of what they did. Northernhenge (talk) 10:59, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This discussion has so far centred on Erotic dance and Category:Erotic dancers but, to be clear, the intended proposal was to take the current members of Category:German female erotic dancers out of that tree and put them into Category:German female dancers. Any discussion around Category:Erotic dancers would need to take place seperately. --Northernhenge (talk) 22:27, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Could someone please improve the main article Erotic dance first, before we start categorising people of this occupation by nationality to gender? And then having to judge whether they were properly categorised? It would help a lot with determining what makes it "defining" to do this for a living, and what the difference is between, say, an "erotic dancer" and a "stripper", and whether they are all "sex workers" or just some of them. The main article has ZERO references and just 1 book as a source. We can't make things up as we go along, we need to base our information and categories on something. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 20:55, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is a huge tree based under Category:Erotic dancers and the articles in the top category are Stripper and List of strippers. Should we rename all these categories to "strippers"? Marcocapelle (talk) 06:38, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
