March 15[edit]

Category:Films about the Rwandan genocide[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 into a single category located at Category:Films about the Rwandan genocide, but with the history of Category:Rwandan genocide films. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 02:12, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: These two categories are about the same thing. Also, I would like to point out that the only reason I made Category:Rwandan genocide films the target of the merger is because that one was created first. Personally, I actually would prefer the title be Category:Films about the Rwandan genocide. Charles Essie (talk) 23:56, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You could nominate the older category for a speedy rename. That would facilitate keeping the history of the older category and getting the better name. (and if you decide not to go that route, I'd support a merge and then rename) Mason (talk) 01:05, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge as nominated, given that the keep !vote has been rebutted. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 22:29, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's no need to diffuse this specialty by nationality when there are one or two people in it Mason (talk) 22:22, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is a circular argument. After the merge very little of the tree will be left. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:03, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. This layer is redundant as it only has Footballers by city or town in the Palestinian territories‎ in it. Mason (talk) 01:18, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:South African optometrists[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 as nominated. WP:SMALLCAT has been deprecated, so the balance of arguments as well as numbers favors a merge. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 16:51, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's no need for a pile of nationality categories with one or two people in them. It's unhelpful for navigation. (And I tried to populate all of the categories, but there just weren't pages to add). Mason (talk) 02:02, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dual merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:01, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dual merge per nom. Maybe with the only exception of South Africa, which has two entries, but definitely leaning towards the merge. --NoonIcarus (talk) 11:10, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Part of an established category tree. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:14, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is a circular argument. After the merge very little of the tree will be left. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:05, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
