Nominator's rationale: Not one song in this category is defined by it reaching #1 on this chart, nor does anyone ever refer to these as "the Pop 100 #1 song" in media. The chart itself didn't last 5 years and was too indistinguishable from the more prominent and well-known Billboard Hot 100 chart. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 17:46, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename per nomination. – Fayenatic London 23:43, 1 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I confused this with moral relativism when I first saw it: that is a far more common use of the term in everyday speech. I am definitely open to better names than the one that I proposed. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:15, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: As mentioned when it was last created, this is a category for drivers who competed in an invididual race event ("performer by performance", you might say). Now, some individual races rise to the level where participation in them is WP:DEFINING - the 24 Hours of LeMans, 24 Hours of Daytona, and such - however the Macau Grand Prix is not one of them, especially as the "Macau Grand Prix" is a collection of races in several series over the course of the race weekend(F3, WTCC, TCR International Series), meaning that it (as far as I can tell) lumps drivers from several series into the same category indiscriminately.

In short, participation in the Macau Grand Prix is not WP:DEFINING to a driver's career, the category is WP:INDISCRIMINATE, and, therefore, it should be deleted. The Bushranger One ping only 02:02, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- This is essentially a performance by performer category which we do not allow. Each year there are perhaps 20 races in the Grand Prix Series. For the most part the same drivers take part in each race, which would result in each driver getting 20 categories. I might not object to "Grand Prix drivers 2015" as a category. A driver's career may last a decade, so that 10 nauual categories might not be too bad. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:41, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Point of order: there is no "Grand Prix series". The event in question here is basically an "all-star" event for the champions and top finishers of various Formula Three series; "Grand Prix" usually refers to Formula One events but is also used (as here) for select other "Formula" (i.e. open-wheel) race events. We don't categorise racing drivers by the intersection of "series+year"; categorisation is done by notable series - Category:Formula Three drivers would be the relevant one here. An upmerge, however, is not indicated as this category appears to contain drivers from the other series mentioned that hold races as support events during the Macau Grand Prix weekend. - The Bushranger One ping only 21:06, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete performer by performance category. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 22:01, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
