 * Propose merging Category:Hadiths related to nikah mut‘ah to Category:Nikah mut‘ah and Category:Hadith
 * Nominator's rationale: Procedural listing, category was tagged by anon editor in February but not listed until now. WP:SMALLCAT, contains only one page. – Fayenatic  L ondon 14:50, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Support, it looks like no other articles would fit this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:44, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Category:Populated places established in 1168

 * 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 and delete as specified in the amended nomination. (non-admin closure) DannyS712 (talk) 00:33, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Populated places established in 1168 to Category:Populated places established in the 12th century


 * Added on relisting: Propose merging Category:Populated places established in the 1110s to Category:Populated places established in the 12th century
 * Added on relisting: Propose deleting Category:Populated places established in the 1160s


 * Nominator's rationale: A single entry in this category with very little or no prospects for growth. In line with the category guidelines, where reliable foundation dates exist, populated place articles should be categorised by year for 1500 and later, by decade from the 1200s to the 1490s, by century from the 10th century BC to the 13th century and by millennium for the 2nd millennium BC and earlier. Greenshed (talk) 13:09, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Adding a parent and sibling decade category; as the nomination merges straight from year category to century, the 1110s decade cat would be left isolated by the original proposal.
 * Support, categorization by year would be too granular in the 12th century. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:27, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Merge -- We are unlikely to get enough content for annual categories in this period. In England, a lot of market towns were chartered in the 13th century, so that I support the guideline.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:40, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, – Fayenatic  L ondon 14:09, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Support all - Category:Populated places established in the 12th century is not large enough to split. Oculi (talk) 19:20, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. Laurel Lodged (talk) 19:39, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I created this category because it was there in red. But I agree with the comments above. Rathfelder (talk) 21:23, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Support all as well, confirming my earlier vote on the first nominated category. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:45, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Support additional nominations as well as decades are also too granular. Greenshed (talk) 22:52, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

Category:Hatnote templates documentation

 * 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 (non-admin closure) . Marcocapelle (talk) 20:23, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Hatnote templates documentation to Category:Template documentation
 * Nominator's rationale: Unclear scope, currently only has Template:Hatnote templates. DannyS712 (talk) 07:12, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Background (I created this category): I think this category had more pages years ago (multiple Hatnote doc pages); see also its presence in parent i.e., the complete hatnote overview. Today the only content is a navbox (as template documentation, not for mainspace).
 * Rename (move) template, delete category. For its content, I propose renaming Template:Hatnote templates into Template:Navbox Hatnotes (non-controvesial imo). Then empty this category, and delete it. The moved navbox template indeed could be categorised Category:Template documentation as proposed (but not by category move or renaming). -DePiep (talk) 08:34, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Category:Wartime cross-dressers

 * 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: keep. There was a suggestion that a category be renamed, but not enough discussion about the renaming to draw any conclusions, so there is no prejudice against speedy renomination for renaming. (non-admin closure) DannyS712 (talk) 00:36, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting wartime cross-dressers


 * Propose deleting female wartime cross-dressers


 * Propose deleting female wartime cross-dressers in the american civil war


 * Nominator's rationale: Not a defining feature. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:33, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Strong keep for female cross dressers I have no idea how you can say that it's not defining. All of the characters in the female wartime cross dressers are notable for doing just that. JDDJS  ( talk to me  •  see what I've done ) 06:19, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Support doing something e.g. because Ehud Barack doesn't belong in Category:LGBT rights (because he disguised as a woman during a special forces raid). However there are many women in these categories whose only/main claim to fame is that they masqueraded as a man to join the army. Perhaps we should have a more precise category for such women (and delete the current categories). DexDor(talk) 20:49, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Suggestion rename Category:Female wartime cross-dressers to Category:Female cross-dressing soldiers. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:47, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * That name would be an improvement. It may be better to create that category and move articles to it (manually) to check they belong in it (e.g. there might be some who were sailors rather than soldiers). There are also some articles where the category tag appears to be incorrect (e.g. here it was added to an article which has no mention of cross-dressing). DexDor(talk) 05:39, 12 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Strong keep, is this some sort of belated April Fools' joke? It is the defining feature and source of notability of most of the members of the category. –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 20:39, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Strong keep This is their main claim to notability. Dimadick (talk) 10:21, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Useful and defining categoryZayZayEM (talk) 03:42, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Definitely keep this category is essential for organizing and holding numerous articles together Audrey (talk) 15:13, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) DannyS712 (talk) 22:15, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting legal drama video games


 * Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT, as far as I am aware, Ace Attorney is the only legal video game series in existence. JDDJS  ( talk to me  •  see what I've done ) 00:10, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Category:Kenyan superheroes

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) DannyS712 (talk) 00:31, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting kenyan superheroes


 * Nominator's rationale: Last discussion had no consensus due to nobody else contributing, so I'm nominating it again. There's only one single article in the category, and it could be argued that it doesn't even belong in the category. JDDJS  ( talk to me  •  see what I've done ) 00:08, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Support, Kenyan descent would be more accurate, but let's not start that with fictional characters. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:50, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
