 * 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.  ℯ  xplicit  02:38, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting budworth family


 * Nominator's rationale: There is no valid indication that all of these people are members of a single family. The category appears to have been created by a person of the same name based on his private genealogical research. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:53, 31 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Comment - I've nominated Budworth family for deletion and if this is successful it will make sense to delete the category too. Sionk (talk) 06:05, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting jennette mccurdy


 * Nominator's rationale: Per numerous precedent in CfD and WP:OCEPON, other existing/more appropriate categorization by works is sufficient in this case without need of eponymous category. -- Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 16:32, 31 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete. Every musician does not automatically get an eponymous category just because she exists — these are created only for musicians who have a lot of spinoff content that need categorization beyond the standard schemes that already exist. They are not created just to hold the standard troika of albums category + songs category + eponym — they are created in instances like, where there are also books by and about him, concert tours, tribute albums, an independently notable son, five people who specifically derived their notability from having been collaborators of Cohen's, a tribute band and three films for which Cohen wrote the score — so the eponymous category is justified in that instance, because there's a lot of stuff that needs Cohen-related categorization beyond the standard scheme that every musical artist already has. But it's not warranted here, because McCurdy doesn't have any further spinoff content over and above the "albums cat + songs cat + BLP combo" that every artist already has.

 * Delete, though the category has 2 EPs and 2 singles of very dubious notability, there's no need for an eponymous category. It seems to be a product of a bloated fan page. Sionk (talk) 06:14, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Video games based on Where's Waldo? to Category:Video games based on Where's Wally?
 * Nominator's rationale: Where's Wally? is the main title. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:02, 31 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Support per nom. Although it did take me some time to find the main article...  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 07:04, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Potentially rename per nom. However, what's the character called in these games?  If they're primarily American, i.e. he's typically called "Waldo" and not "Wally", I'd advocate for keeping on WP:ENGVAR grounds.  Nyttend (talk) 23:52, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose, all articles in the category have the name Waldo in it. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:32, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
