 * Propose merging Category:New Zealand Twenty20 International captains to Category:New Zealand Twenty20 International cricket captains
 * Nominator's rationale: Out of date (missing entries); does not comply with current naming convention which, of necessity, includes the word "cricket" in the title; lacks relevant categories. Scribbles by The Scribbler (talk) 15:32, 20 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Oppose as this user has been blocked as a sock and created the needless new category to prove a point. Their new category should be deleted as a G5 instead. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:01, 21 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Observances set by the Punjabi calendar to Category:Punjabi festivals

 * Oppose Just because an event occurs in a country doesn't mean that it will be set by said country's historical calendar. We need to keep both, as this is an important distinction to make. SuperChris (talk) 18:59, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Tentative oppose. Some of the members are religious observances which are not usually regarded as festivals. --Paul_012 (talk) 04:08, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, I notice that the nominator hasn't proposed any action for the parent Category:Observances on non-Gregorian calendars. If the individual categories aren't retained, the content needs to also be upmerged into the parent to avoid losing the association. --Paul_012 (talk) 04:15, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment: Many of these would be candidates for re-categorising into Category:Observances held on the full moon. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:46, 4 November 2018 (UTC) I've gone ahead and added articles to said category. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:54, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
