 * The result of the discussion was: Merge. Timrollpickering (Talk) 19:45, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Bolivia articles to Category:WikiProject Bolivia articles
 * Nominator's rationale: These categories appear to have the same scope. Most categories like this begin with "WikiProject". DexDor(talk) 21:46, 9 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom. The convention is: WikiProject Foo → WikiProject Foo articles → Foo articles by importance/quality. -- Black Falcon (talk) 16:52, 16 December 2018 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: Merge. Timrollpickering (Talk) 19:45, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Wikipedia Manual of Style (Wikipedia content) to Category:Wikipedia Manual of Style (content)
 * Nominator's rationale: As far as I can see these are the same thing. DexDor(talk) 21:33, 9 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Comment: They were both originally created in 2010 by before renaming per Categories_for_discussion/Log/2010_May_5. Gnevin is now semi-retired and has made no edits for the last few months. – Fayenatic  L ondon 15:43, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge; there are no other parents to consider. I can see a slight difference in that the nominated category contains guidance about pages and templates, whereas the target contains guidance about text, but there is so little content that the segregation is not useful. – Fayenatic  L ondon 15:45, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge per FL. Not a useful distinction in practice due to low membership. -- Black Falcon (talk) 16:56, 16 December 2018 (UTC)

 * 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/Delete. The names of the targets would have to be considered in a separate discussion. Timrollpickering (Talk) 19:47, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Roman Catholic churches in Caudete to Category:Roman Catholic churches in Castilla–La Mancha
 * Propose merging Category:Roman Catholic churches in Cogolludo to Category:Roman Catholic churches in Castilla–La Mancha
 * Propose merging Category:Roman Catholic churches in Jaén to Category:Roman Catholic churches in Andalusia
 * Propose merging Category:Roman Catholic churches in Zamora to Category:Roman Catholic churches in Castile and León
 * Propose merging Category:Roman Catholic churches in Tabgha to Category:Roman Catholic churches in Israel
 * Propose deleting Category:Churches in Caudete
 * Propose deleting Category:Churches in Cogolludo
 * Propose deleting Category:Churches in Jaén
 * Propose deleting Category:Churches in Zamora
 * Propose deleting Category:Churches in Tabgha
 * Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, the above Roman Catholic churches categories contain 2 articles each. Upmerging to the churches parent category of the town (e.g. merging Category:Roman Catholic churches in Caudete to Category:Churches in Caudete) is pointless because the churches category will remain equally small, while further upmerging is not possible because none of the towns in which the above churches are located has its own category, e.g. Category:Caudete does not exist. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:39, 9 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Support Small categories, unlikely to expand. Dimadick (talk) 14:43, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Support all but would prefer if each target was also renamed per the parent to Category:Roman Catholic church buildings in Foo. Laurel Lodged (talk) 20:56, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, all the above Roman Catholic churches categories contain 1 to 4 articles. Upmerging to the churches parent category of the town (e.g. merging Category:Roman Catholic churches in Frascati to Category:Churches in Frascati) is pointless because the churches category will remain equally small, while further upmerging is not possible because none of the towns in which the above churches are located has its own category, e.g. Category:Frascati and Category:Genga do not exist. The merge is a bit more complex than in the nomination above because Italy has Roman Catholic churches categories at the region level but it also has churches categories at the province level. By the way, many of these categories refer to small towns in the province of Macerata (just over 300,000 people live in this province). Marcocapelle (talk) 08:39, 9 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Support Small categories, unlikely to expand. Dimadick (talk) 14:44, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment why two targets, when one of them is a container one holding the other. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 01:54, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
 * It is actually not the case that one of them is a container holding the other. One category is a combining a broader churches scope with a narrower geographical level (province), the other is a narrower churches scope (Roman Catholic) with a broader geographical level (region). Admittedly this is not an ideal situation, so if anyone has a proposal to restructure the parents, be my guest. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:37, 11 December 2018 (UTC)

Churches by town

 * The result of the discussion was: Merge. Timrollpickering (Talk) 19:50, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Acquacanina to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata
 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Appignano to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata
 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Belforte del Chienti to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata
 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Bolognola to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata
 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Castelraimondo to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata
 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Falconara Marittima to Category:Churches in the Province of Ancona

 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Pioraco to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata

 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Serrapetrona to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata
 * Propose merging Category:Churches in Staffolo to Category:Churches in the Province of Ancona
 * Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, all the above categories contain only 1 or 2 articles. A single merge is proposed because none of the towns in which the above churches are located has its own category to which it can be merged, e.g. Category:Acquacanina and Category:Appignano do not exist. Note that most of these categories refer to small towns in the Italian province of Macerata (just over 300,000 people live in this province). Marcocapelle (talk) 07:52, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: speedy delete per WP:G6 as redundant category. Project was deleted per Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Tenacious D -- Brown Haired Girl (talk) • (contribs) 01:59, 9 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Propose deleting wikiproject tenacious d


 * Nominator's rationale: Seems like it should be speedy but I don't see it fitting a criterion: non-existent wikiProject. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 01:22, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was:  at Categories for discussion/Log/2019 January 7. ℯ xplicit  04:05, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Articles by WikiProject to Category:Wikipedia articles by WikiProject
 * Nominator's rationale: Standard for administrative categories versus the actual content of the encyclopedia. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 00:21, 9 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Weak oppose as the nomination is incorrect; there are many "Category:WikiProject Foo articles" categories (i.e. that don't have the word "Wikipedia"). Two of the current parent category tags should be removed. I might support deletion instead (as the category appears to be rather pointless). DexDor(talk) 16:05, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment No opposition to the change as the category creator, but think a more important change is to rename the child categories that don't state they are Wikiproject categories, e.g. Category:El Salvador articles. SFB 01:11, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
