 * The result of the discussion was: rename. MER-C 09:11, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Mutual fund families to Category:Mutual funds
 * Nominator's rationale: No article with this title. There is an article Mutual fund.  Sub categories dont mention families. Rathfelder (talk) 13:57, 13 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Rename and heavily purge, the category mainly contains financial services companies. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:33, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
 * The parent Category:Funds is an even bigger mess. Advice about what to do with it would be appreciated. Rathfelder (talk) 19:13, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I have moved many articles from Category:Funds to Category:Investment funds or Category:Investment management. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:30, 14 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Rename but move companies that really would fit the name into more appropriate categories. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:56, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: There was consensus to delete Category:Television series set in fictional populated places at this CfD because the works that belong in this category little in common, compared to categories like Category:Television shows set in New York City, effectively making the category a WP:OCMISC. The fundamental difference is that these works are set in different fictional populated places, which may be more different than two randomly chosen cities in the real world. The same rationale likely applies to the rest of the tree as well. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 10:12, 13 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Oppose The setting of a work is one of its most defining aspects. Dimadick (talk) 10:58, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. The setting is obviously defining when it concerns real geographic places and countries, but fictional places can be anywhere and nowhere. However, categories in a fictional country in a real continent can be upmerged to the parent category of that continent. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:13, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose -- I did not see the CFD on Category:Television series set in fictional populated places and wonder if the decision to delete it was not mistaken. In any event the venue for a work of fiction is an important characteristic.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:59, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose most / trainwreck - location is certainly a defining feature of a work of fiction, and is an established category tree. Out of the list above, while  and its subcategories gather content only loosely related, other branches such as,  (itself a legitimate subcat of both  and ) etc. are certainly defining. I would Delete  and its subcategories and Keep the rest. Place Clichy (talk) 16:42, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep most per Place Clichy; see also previous discussion at Categories_for_discussion/Log/2018_February_12. I agree that "fictional populated places" are not defining, as illustrated by the selected contents listed in the August CFD; it makes very little difference to a story whether its setting is named e.g. Balamory (fictional) or Tobermory (real). – Fayenatic  L ondon 14:24, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
