The result of the discussion was: delete. Those who defend the category have not explained why this category defies the usual application of WP:OCEPON. A large number of pages within sub-categories does not provide a rationale to keep a sparsely-populated parent. – Fayenatic London 14:25, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:OCEPON --woodensuperman 08:06, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, Keep, because this categories for people are very important and necessary. They significantly improve the navigation in the field of speculative fiction and play a unifying role for all topics related to these writers.--Yasnodark (talk) 12:59, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:OCEPON. The works are already categorised appropriately. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:15, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • The category contains 2 subcategories and one article, in my opinion this is quite enough and the reader can see them together in this category.--Yasnodark (talk) 13:21, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • This is not enough to satisfy WP:OCEPON, which states "even most notable people lack enough directly related articles or subcategories to populate eponymous categories effectively". --woodensuperman 13:41, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: if this is deleted, then "see also" links should be added between the sub-categories (and between those and the article, if not already present). – Fayenatic London 13:57, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I think having eleven (twelve, if you count the article about the author) articles is enough to have a category for the person. If it were only 3-4 articles, it would be different. I think this meets the nebulous threshold established by WP:OCEPON. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 17:09, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - per Nihonjoe above. Oculi (talk) 20:59, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Fully Support Deletion - There is ZERO need for this category. I am going to repeat word for word what I just posted below regarding Category:William Goldman:
Even the "other" subcat, Category:Films based on works by Philip Wylie, belongs quite properly in Category:Works by Philip Wylie, which I have just added as a parent. Ordinarily, I would have gone ahead and finished the job by removing the redundant parent, Category:Philip Wylie, but I left it there purely out of consideration for this discussion. The bottom line is, Category:Works by Philip Wylie is absolutely all that is needed to provide a home for all of the subcategories. Keeping *this* category would fly in the face of The.Most.Basic. of all criteria for creation of valid categories, eponymous or otherwise. Anomalous+0 (talk) 10:30, 11 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • These films can very well be a subcategory since they are based on these books. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:38, 15 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Categories for the WikiProject Merge assessment department, a department that never got off the ground and never tagged a single article. Trialpears (talk) 12:16, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: I don't find it necessary to have two categories with MSNBC associated people. Most people in the "MSNBC people" category are current or former hosts/analysts. Merging these people in with the above category should be appropriate. Tinton5 (talk) 01:30, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
