    Comment. I was on the fence about PRC for journalism because for the 20th-century its probably worth distinguishing whether they were a journalist in a democracy (RoC) or a communist nation (PRC). Mason (talk) 22:01, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: manually merge, with very few exceptions these women are already in the tree of Women regents or Countesses regnant as well, and they are much more notable because of the latter. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:23, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Created by blocked sock who likes making unnecessary gender-specific categories. Category:Spy fiction is defining, but I do not believe the fact that it is about a male or female spy, specifically, is defining. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 13:18, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Many films include both men and women in this type of role — for example, the YRF Spy Universe. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 18:30, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Duplicate categories (same parent categories, same list article). Although the target category is the more recent duplicate (created on 9 October), it is more consistent with the format of its siblings in Category:American suffragists by state (itself currently under discussion for renaming to Category:American suffragists by state or territory). Place Clichy (talk) 11:34, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:18, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This seems like a pointless category. We have child Category:Buddhist controversies in Japan and parent Category:History of Buddhism in Japan, and there is no 'indicents' category tree (Category:Incidents) is a redirect to Category:Accidents. Looking at ja wiki, where this category exists, it is a subcategory to Category:Events in Japan. So what we have here is effectively Category:Events in the history of Buddhism in Japan, which I think makes this topic not different from its parent Category:History of Buddhism in Japan I mentioned already.
