 * Nominator's rationale: This is a little too slim for an eponymous category. Suggest interlinking the two subcats with catseealso. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:11, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

Category:Former administrators

 * 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. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 05:02, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting former administrators


 * Nominator's rationale: This is, basically, a little used user category. When I ran into it, I thought about appending it to hundreds of former administrators' user pages but I think that it should be a self-chosen category and not imposed by another editor. But it is not being utilized except for one former administrator so I don't think it is serving a purpose and that is unlikely to change. Besides we have Former administrators which has much more detailed information for any editor who wants to inquire about the status of former administrators and it is a well-maintained series of pages.


 * At first I thought I'd go to AN about this category and see what fellow administrators thought but decided to put it up for discussion here instead. Liz Read! Talk! 01:17, 30 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Funnily enough I didn't know Former administrators existed until just now. We often delete pages instead of categories as the latter are often more accessible. It could be seen as a pejorative I guess so could imagine the reticence of many to use it. I really could go either way. My slight preference is to weak keep but could understand if deleted.

 * Delete for now, with just one member this category is pointless. No objection to recreation if and when someone is prepared to fully populate the category. In that case the category may well be re-established as Category:Former Wikipedia administrators rather than under its current name. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:47, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete – As noted by the OP, Former administrators does the job. — JFG talk 13:04, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete Not obvious that it only applies to Wikipedia administrators.Rathfelder (talk) 19:15, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete I just removed the category from my page so its obsolete anyway.--MONGO (talk) 14:08, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment Well, MONGO was the only member of this category so it is now empty. Thanks for making this decision easier, MONGO. Liz Read! Talk! 01:58, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete as creator. I created it only to fill a redlink at Special:WantedCategories, and if it's now empty, there's no need to keep it. --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 03:18, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
