 * Propose deleting sluggish schizophrenia researchers


 * Nominator's rationale: Only one article. Making a point rather than a categorisation. Rathfelder (talk) 20:56, 17 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Merge to Category:Schizophrenia researchers. Although sluggish schizophrenia is an actual topic, this category is too narrow and, furthermore, there is not enough content in Category:Schizophrenia researchers to warrant a split at this time. -- Black Falcon (talk) 04:01, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge per Black Falcon. Schizophrenia researchers should be able to go at any speed they want :) (yeah, I know...) Grutness...wha?  03:12, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting people from bampton, cumbria


 * Propose deleting Category:People from Glassonby‎
 * Propose deleting Category:People from Hesket, Cumbria‎‎

 * Nominator's rationale: Small cat(s) for small villages with no likelihood of more content. Upmerge the contents. Sionk (talk) 18:47, 17 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Merge for Now Don't delete, but upmerge and no objection to recreating if any ever get up to 5 or so articles so they actually help navigation. RevelationDirect (talk) 02:29, 19 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge each to the district parent (e.g. "Eden (district)" to avoid loss of data. Bampton might qualify as a small town, but one article is not enough for a category.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:23, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment I note that you created the categories orignally, so if I was you, I'd remove the articles from those categories and then add the WP:C1 tag. They'll be gone a few days, whereas the the WP:CFD backlog is at least a month. I don't see this as being controversial.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 17:47, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Given the edit histories, I think could get away with simply listing them as speedy deletions under criterion G7. Grutness...wha?  03:16, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: merge. -- Black Falcon (talk) 03:36, 29 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Propose merging Category:Los Dinos members to Category:Selena y Los Dinos members
 * Nominator's rationale: These specific musicians were in Selena y Los Dinos, which is a band based on Selena's father Abraham Quintanilla Jr.'s much earlier band Los Dinos. Most of these musicians were barely born when Los Dinos existed.-- Mike Selinker (talk) 11:34, 17 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom. Los Dinos redirects to Selena y Los Dinos. VegaDark (talk) 06:27, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) . Marcocapelle (talk) 07:37, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting little battlers experience


 * Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary category that only contains the main article, episode list, and character list and there is no further potential to grow to be useful for navigation. WP:SMALLCAT —Farix (t &#124; c) 10:34, 17 October 2017 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) . Marcocapelle (talk) 06:01, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Wikipedians who are Buddhists to Category:Buddhist Wikipedians
 * Nominator's rationale: Misnamed and duplicative of the properly named (per our current naming conventions) Buddhist Wikipedians. I would also support deletion as I don't believe knowing a user's religion fosters encyclopedic collaboration, but I hesitate to advocate that outside of a group nomination of all religions. VegaDark (talk) 04:58, 17 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom, as duplicative and misnamed. -- Black Falcon (talk) 03:32, 18 October 2017 (UTC)

Category:Wikipedians using Windows 8

 * 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 (non-admin closure) . Marcocapelle (talk) 06:03, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting wikipedians using windows 8


 * Nominator's rationale: Violates WP:USERCAT as a category that does not foster encyclopedic collaboration. Precedent to delete "Wikipedians by operating system" categories was established here unanimously - To reiterate my rationale then, "Not helpful to Wikipedia to categorize users by what operating system they happen to use. I use Windows, but am not interesting in collaborating at all on topics related to Windows, nor am I more able than others to contribute to the article because I use Windows." There's no reason Windows 8 should get special treatment. VegaDark (talk) 04:50, 17 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom and the precedent of deleting Category:Wikipedians by operating system. There is no value in maintaining a grouping of users by operating system, since the mere fact of using a particular OS does not imply any sort of ability, knowledge, or interest that could be relevant to encyclopedia-building. -- Black Falcon (talk) 03:54, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Doesn't help to build an encyclopedia.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 06:57, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
