Nominator's rationale: This is a strange intersection. For one thing, I don't think any empire was ever truly democratic throughout its history. For instance, the French colonial empire (the only current entry in the category) began somewhere in the 16th-century, at a time when France was clearly not a democracy. It could further be argued that most empires ruled their colonies in non-democratic fashion. Pichpich (talk) 19:53, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The contents of the subcategories are articles about the films/tv shows and not the scores themselves, which would be the works by Natalie Holt. I've cross-linked the subcategories so navigation between the two still exists. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 19:14, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose This is not how the category tree about works by creator functions. For filmmakers, works means the films which they directed, the films which they scripted, and films where they composede the music. Music works themselves do not necessarily need their own article.

Nominator's rationale: Merge and redirect, manually adding sort keys. This was originally "Years in sport by country" and was renamed as part of a batch nomination in 2019, which presumably overlooked that there was a similarly-named category already. An alternative might be renaming to Category:Sports by sport, country and year but I don't expect that to catch on. – Fayenatic London 14:43, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom. Good point about the sort keys too. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:41, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
