July 22[edit]

Category:League of Lezhë[edit]

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 talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: Delete. Timrollpickering 11:37, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:SMALLCAT and no need to upmerge, the two other articles (other than the eponymous article) don't fit in the parent categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:06, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Coke Studio empty/useless SUBCATS[edit]

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 talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: procedural close, categories have been emptied and deleted per C1, presumably out of process. Based on the discussion it doesn't look like this is a great loss. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 11:28, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! these three have been nominated for speedy deletion by Daylen. These were created by Nauriya:

Nominator's rational: The reason is that only one page tagged in it, but it can be better tagged to 'SUPERCAT Category:Coke Studio (Pakistan)'. Please check, thanks! M. Billoo 18:15, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Per the usage note on Season 8 the real intention here was to categorize all of the individual performers who happened to appear on the show in that season, even if that hadn't actually been done yet, but that's a WP:PERFCAT violation. Bearcat (talk) 16:09, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure). Marcocapelle (talk) 04:32, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT. Small one-county community with just 1 entry. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 16:12, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Upmerge per nom. No prejudice against recreation if and when there are four or five people to file here instead of just one. Bearcat (talk) 03:01, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Military alliances[edit]

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 talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: no consensus. – Fayenatic London 15:17, 12 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: upmerge per WP:SMALLCAT, we have very few articles about ancient and medieval military alliances. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:31, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Fair comment. In order to cope with that, I've added the parent category for merge as well. As a result of the merger, Category:Military alliances by period will consist of 8 subcategories: ancient + medieval + 6 (early) modern century categories, that sounds reasonable. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:49, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge all -- leave the centuries as a cat-redirect (to discourage re-creation). I note there is nothing between C4 BC and C8 AD, presumably due to the dominance of the Raman and Byzantine Empires. I would discourage merging C16th onwards and there is probably enough content. Before that only C5 BC has enough content to merit sub-cats. Peterkingiron (talk) 14:37, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per hmains, but if merged should also be merged with the correpsonding x-century military history category which the nominator has overlooked. Tim! (talk) 18:11, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks, you're right, I've added these in the nomination. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:45, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Fatehabad, Haryana[edit]

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 talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete. There is no need to merge, all content is already in the tree of Category:Fatehabad district. (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 04:38, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This category seems to be redundant to Category:Fatehabad district, since it just contains a bunch of stuff in the district. It's possible the creator intended it as a category for the city but there aren't enough articles about just the city and not the district to make that necessary. ♠PMC(talk) 03:32, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Every city that exists does not automatically get one of these just to contain its eponym; that's warranted if there's a reasonable amount of content to file in it, but if it's that unclear what would belong here rather than the existing district category then there's no need for two separate categories.

Category:Star Wars moons[edit]

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 talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). Marcocapelle (talk) 04:42, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This category isn't currently necessary as neither Category:Star Wars locations and Category:Star Wars planets is so large it needs to be split out. Secondly, the category actually shouldn't have any pages in it, seeing as neither Yavin nor Endor (Star Wars) are moons, they're planets and Death Star, which I removed, well.... "that's no moon". It's a needless category at this time, seeing it's unlikely any moon in the franchise is like to get an article anytime soon. I suppose there's a case to rename Category:Star Wars planets to "Star Wars planets and moons" but that's maybe a discussion to have when a Star Wars moon actually achieves notability. ~Cheers, TenTonParasol 01:32, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The articles here are not about moons; they're about planets that have moons. Note that while Yavin is in both categories already, Endor will need to be manually readded to Category:Star Wars planets. Bearcat (talk) 03:05, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
