Nominator's rationale: For the same reason as the merge of Category:CGI characters, WP:NONDEF. A name change would expand the scope more. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 19:08, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:1600 establishments in Africa[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: manual merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 20:52, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Manual merge, only the article, not the subcat. Dahomey was established as a kingdom in the early C17; 1600 is spurious precision. The Ottoman subcat contains only Europe content, so should not be merged. – Fayenatic London 11:16, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, apparently we do not have any articles with establishments in Africa exactly in the year 1600. Siblings e.g. 1602 and 1608 may be nominated for deletion as well. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:31, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment the year 1600 is part of the 16th century, while the year 1601 is part of the 17th century. (just as 2000 is part of the 20th century while 2001 is the first year of the new millennium) -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 00:07, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- The status of Dahomey (the sole article) was discussed the other day. Its foundation was c.1600 and it certainly existed by c.1620. The category thus has a spurious precision, when we do not know any precise date. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:33, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Suicide in film[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: manual merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 20:53, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Manual merge, checking first that suicide is WP:DEFINING for all the contents. There was no consensus to delete at the recent discussion Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2021_December_10#Category:Suicide_in_film. These two categories are now siblings following the merge of Topics in film to Films by topic. – Fayenatic London 09:02, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is exactly the reason why a manual merge is proposed, in order to purge films that do not have it as a main topic. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:02, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The above is preserved as an archive of the discussion. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

Category:Siverskyi Donets[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: rename. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 20:54, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per parent article Donets and also for neutrality, the river passes through both Russia and Ukraine but Siverskyi Donets is the Ukrainian form. Super Ψ Dro 08:43, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Marcos Administration cabinet members[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: rename to Category:Ferdinand Marcos administration cabinet members. – Fayenatic London 20:14, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Now that Ferdinand Marcos Sr.'s son was elected as President in 2022... Category name move for this page is due. See Category:Corazon Aquino cabinet members‎ and Benigno Aquino III cabinet members‎.

Not renaming this category may cause confusion with Category:Bongbong Marcos cabinet members‎ Hariboneagle927 (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support per nom. Besides I think it should be "administration" rather than "Administration" but that obviously applies to all siblings too. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:22, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, but use sentence case (small letter a). —hueman1 (talk contributions) 04:54, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom and sentence case recommendations stated above. –Sanglahi86 (talk) 08:03, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom --Lenticel (talk) 02:48, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Aircraft manufacturers of Austria-Hungary[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: rename and delete as per Fayenatic London. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 20:57, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, only two articles, and we do not have a developed tree of aircraft manufacturers by former country. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:34, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think that would make it needlessly complicated. Hungary kept a status as a semi-independent kingdom within the composite state of Austria-Hungary, much more so than e.g. Bohemia, so there would not be much harm in having them added to Hungarian categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:49, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yes, those Austrian-Hungarian parent categories are wholly redundant and will naturally become empty by this proposal. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:42, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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. – Fayenatic London 19:20, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Since there is no requirement that user pages have descriptions of any size, there is absolutely no purpose to this category, which does not help in the maintenance of Wikipedia in any way. Beyond My Ken (talk) 04:36, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I agree that there's no apparent purpose for this category: user pages don't require shortdescs, so a list of the pages that have them isn't useful. Some of the other non-mainspace categories can probably go as well, but I don't support deleting Category:Articles with short description: the WhatLinksHere approaches misses the hundreds of thousands of articles that have a short description specified via the infobox template, so the category is the only good way to determine which articles still need a shortdesc.
