Nominator's rationale: Fails WP:USERCAT for lacking any discernible collaborative function - plamo was deleted as non-notable. * Pppery * it has begun... 22:24, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This newly-created category and its subcategories Category:Management & Organization scholars and Category:Management & Organization theory seem more like two different but related subjects than a single meaningful field of study. There is no main Management & Organization article and it's unclear by what criteria articles and biographies have been moved into this new branch. Belbury (talk) 20:03, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Downmerge to Category:Management but purge Category:Organizations, it is just a fancy synonym of management. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:18, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reason for creating the category is the need for the academic discipline tree linking to management & organization as none of these fields are academic fields of their own, and in addition there is a great overlap between the two as it regards theory as well as scholars, which is why there is no "organizational scholars" category (management scientists is a more specific form of it). Most notable universities offer the study as neither one nor the other. --Assimo23 (talk) 22:23, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Sorry, but I have to agree that this leads to a hodgepodge. BD2412 T 14:51, 1 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Which is the point. There is no connection to the academic fields from the "management" and "organization" categories respectively, other than the "theory" sections of those connecting to "social sciences" and "behavioral sciences" which is a small part of the discipline itself (what about financial management, for example). You study all different sorts of management in schools of management, but it is a study of its own .. Assimo23 (talk) 10:22, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    As you can see, I have found an extensive number of categories and articles that would fit into this category, but not into its sub-categories (management nor organization) Assimo23 (talk) 10:26, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete — manually revert. There are journals called Management and Organization. There are academic courses (and entire departments) called Management and Organization or Organizational Management. But this improperly combined Category:Organizations, which are Category:Entities having nothing to do with Management or Organization (singular).
    William Allen Simpson (talk) 05:55, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Now that is a good argument. I didn't think of that (singular vs plural). Maybe future consideration for splitting the current Category:Organizations into one Category:Organization and Category:Organizations (depending on whether it regards the concept or the entity). Either way that's another project. I concur Assimo23 (talk) 07:29, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Railroad companies by former railroad company[edit]

  • Propose deleting
more subcategories
Nominator's rationale: delete, this tree is based on an overlapping but far less defining characteristic than the tree of Category:Spin-offs of North American railroads. Companies in the above categories do not have to have any connection with the original railroad company. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:25, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: @Marcocapelle: you don't seem to have tagged the "formerly operating" cats

  • I tagged most categories last week, can't figure out why a few of them were left out untagged. Anyway they are all tagged now. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:13, 26 December 2022 (UTC) [reply]
  • Support — this hodgepodge would always be a terrible mess, as railroad companies buy and sell lines all the time. Also, rail lines don't always own the tracks themselves, and buy and lease and rent and sell blocks of track. (Trying to build the Internet, running fiber along tracks and crossing under tracks was somewhat enlightening and extremely frustrating.)

Unbuilt buildings and structures[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 08:53, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, only 1 or 2 articles in each of these categories, and they are not part of a large established tree. Merge should be manual because many articles will already be in another subcategory of Category:Unbuilt buildings and structures. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:55, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
