 * The result of the discussion was: Withdrawn by proposer. Thanks to BrownHairedGirl and Lugnuts, I was not aware of this convention. It might indeed be good to add this in SMALLCAT. Randykitty (talk) 15:51, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting films directed by ardit sadiku


 * Nominator's rationale: Only one entry (director has made only one movie). My crystal ball does not permit me to predict whether this person will make any more movies. (Note: created by an editor with a declared COI). Randykitty (talk) 13:15, 24 February 2019 (UTC)


 * 'Comment. My undestanding is that single-item subcats of Category:Works by creator are usually acceptable. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:34, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * If that is so, I'll withdraw this of course. Do you have a link to this for me? Thanks! --Randykitty (talk) 13:45, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * @Randykitty, AFAIK it's an unwritten convention. But see e.g. 21 single-item cats on the first page of Category:Films by director.
 * Maybe Marcocapelle or @DexDor will be kind enough to correct me if I'm wrong. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:59, 24 February 2019 (UTC)


 * This bit of WP:FILMCAT has it written down - "A category for a director's films should be created even if they have only directed one film (irrespective of whether they are likely to direct more in the future), providing that the director already has an article". It's been that standard for more than a decade, and something I added to the Film Project to mirror album releases (IE bands who only did one album).  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 15:25, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Many thanks, @Lugnuts.
 * Does that satisfy your concerns, @Randykitty?
 * It seems to me that this should be noted in WP:SMALLCAT. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:31, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting Category:Constitution Party vice presidential nominees
 * Propose deleting Category:Democratic Party vice presidential nominees

 * Propose deleting Category:Whig Party vice presidential nominees
 * Nominator's rationale: They were all categories that I created by mistake. Even though they've turned into redirects, I don't think anyone will search with these exact terms. --Walk Like an Egyptian (talk) 08:11, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:1955 NCAA football season to Category:1955 college football season
 * Nominator's rationale: Per recent discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football, NCAA membership prior to the creation of the University and College Divisions in 1956 and seems have had no functional or structural effect on competition, and appears to get little, if any, mention in primary or third-party sources, so it is therefore not defining to the constituent articles and subcategories. The "19XX NCAA college football season" categories should up up merged to "19XX college football season".

 * Comment -- "Football" is ambiguous. American, Austrialian-rules, Soccer, and Rugby are all "Football".  If a rename such as this goes ahead, the target should be Category:1955 US college football season, Category:1955 college American football season or such like.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:44, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Peterkingiron, the term "college football" refers specifically to American football played almost entirely in the United States and on a very limited scale in Canada. The parent cat for this subject is Category:College football in the United States.  Its subcats are inconsistent in their use of "in the United States".  I'm not opposed to a general cleanup/adjustment of the category tree here in the near future.  But that should not hold up this nomination right now. Jweiss11 (talk) 20:16, 24 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Support per rationale given here and at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football. PCN02WPS  ( talk  &#124;  contribs ) 00:48, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. Also, the Canadians use "University football" for their intercollegiate version of the sport anyway.-UCO2009bluejay (talk) 21:55, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
