Nominator's rationale: Triple upmerge for now. There are only two people in this category, while the parent (18th-century Slovak people) has 6. Right now this isn't helpful for navigation to diffuse by occupation and century and nationality. Mason (talk) 19:22, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's no need to diffuse this medical specialty by nationality to this degree. Each of these noms have one or two people in them Mason (talk) 22:50, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is a circular argument. After the merge very little of the tree will be left. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:02, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 19:16, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

Nominator's rationale: Category lacks subjects and does not aid navigation. Let'srun (talk) 02:05, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge for now with only two articles, but presumably dual merge also to Category:College football seasons. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:01, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • dual merge also to Category:College football seasons – Huh? Why the heck would we want to merge a mere two of 30,000+ college football season articles to create a brand-new category called "College football seasons" – that makes absolutely zero sense. BeanieFan11 (talk) 14:31, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • It can be populated with many more articles when all subcategories with one or two articles are merged. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:33, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        • That still makes no sense. If I wanted to find seasons of this team, I would look up "Dallas Hilltoppers football seasons", not a broad "College football seasons" category that has the potential for hundreds of thousands of entries! Not to mention such a category would be missing tens of thousands of articles for programs which have more than a few seasons with articles. It just doesn't make sense.

Nominator's rationale: Not all of the princes and princesses included in this list are children of the sultan, some are grandchildren. Векочел (talk) 14:24, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per nom. It is also a redudant category layer with only two subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:21, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The fact that you mentioned is good reason to keep the category, it should be used for specifically children of Sultans, illegitimate ones too.★Trekker (talk) 18:58, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, per
    WP:OVERLAPCAT, it would largely overlap with the existing princes and princesses categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:09, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply

Category:English people by ethnic or national origin

The result of the discussion was: rename to
(non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 22:10, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply
]
Nominator's rationale: A. rename per usage of "descent" in the subcategory names. B. purge Category:English Jews because the latter isn't about their ancestors but about what they are themselves (i.e. it is about ethnicity rather than about descent). This is part of a larger stale speedy nomination in which User:1234qwer1234qwer4, User:Anomalous+0 and User:Smasongarrison participated. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:46, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep the existing name. The wording suggests it's about something broader than descent; and indeed national origin may not be something to do with or the same as ethnicity or ethnic origin. 83.229.61.201 (talk) 15:41, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • It is not in fact broader, because the subcategories are by descent too. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:24, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom. I'm fine with adding Category:English Jews to the parent category. Being Jewish is nested under both ethnicity and religion, so as long as we have it in English people as well as the religion sub cat, I'm fine with purging. (otherwise it gets hidden in English people by religion) Mason (talk) 17:59, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Support per nom. Omnis Scientia (talk) 21:48, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Is this discussion tied to the hundreds of "by ethnic or national origin" categories that have been sitting in Speedy Renames for weeks on the CFD page? If so, that should be mentioned that this one category rename could impact hundreds of other categories. Liz Read! Talk! 21:47, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: delete, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. Merging is not necessary, the subcategory is already part of Category:Belgian male television actors. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:31, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. The only page in here is already in the relevant subcategories of Kosovan films and LGBT-related films Mason (talk) 01:24, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
