Category:Culture of the Sultanate of Rum[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: merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 08:52, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Merge, only contains 1 sub-cat. The buildings sub-cat is adequately parented and does not need to be merged to other parents. – Fayenatic London 22:00, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 08:54, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete, redundant category layer with only one subcategory each. There is no reason to merge, the subcategories are already part of Category:African-American male singers. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:53, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 08:55, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename to align with parent Category:Percussion instruments by tradition and as far as I can see these categories mainly contain instruments. Move the main articles to Category:Percussion but keep a link to them in the header of these category pages. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:23, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. Nom's rationale as far as I can see these categories mainly contain instruments (my emphasis) is weak to say the least. These are useful categories and descoping them to exclude all but instruments is unnecessary and excessively precise. Agree that work is needed. We need discussion as to what the overall category structure should be for percussion instruments. Drummers (I am one) are notorious for holding strong POVs and I used to regularly remove them from the drum kit article. We can't fix that but we can remove as much as possible of these POVs. Andrewa (talk) 12:14, 5 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • It is still odd that the parent categories are limited to instruments but these are not. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:57, 5 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support but rename to "National members of European Gymnastics" because the European Gymnastics article doesn't use "the" in front of "European Gymnastics". Mucube (talk · contribs) 23:12, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
