 * Nominator's rationale: I can't find the word "pentannual" in any dictionary. When I google it, I get hits saying that it means "every 5 years", which obviously is not intended here. Randykitty (talk) 22:56, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: The first category listed needs to be pluralised; this would regularly be a speedy change but I want to supplement it with the rest of this nomination. The position of Auditor General of Sri Lanka has gone through a number of name changes over the years (see the article). Each subcategory listed includes the individuals who held the position in question when it had one particular name. Although the name changed over time, the position did not really change that much—at least not enough to justify having a different article for the positions. So I do not understand why we cannot just categorize these all in one category, named in a plural form to match the article for the positions, which is Auditor General of Sri Lanka. Several of the subcategories contain just one article. Example2 (talk) 03:28, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
