 * Propose deleting lgbt-related controversies in switzerland
 * Nominator's rationale: Contains only one page, and that one page is miscategorized (see Talk:LGBT rights in Switzerland). The creator, has been creating these "LGBT-related controversies in X" categories en masse, and they all have the same problem. In view of  there may be CIR issues warranting a block to prevent further mass creation of categories.   Sandstein   20:25, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete unnecessary Tazuco (talk) 21:34, 9 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete - LGBT rights in Switzerland is not a controversy and is properly categorised otherwise. I would agree with the nom that many of Gng1999's category creations are of dubious value. Oculi (talk) 00:39, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Please don't delete my Switzerland LGBT controversies, Because i'm trying to be a new member, Because their homophobic controversies in it so i need to leave it on there. I'm autistic anyway, Sandstein.
 * Please don't delete my work. I'm know what i'm doing. I looked up at the work on UserTalk on LGBT rights on Switzerland.Please don't block me. I'm autistic anyway. I'm not joking. Gng1999 (talk) 07:05, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Note: parent category may includes Category:Current events Category:China QiuLiming1 (talk) 05:21, 8 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Comment, I have added parent categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:39, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - does not have a 'by country' subscheme, and the single article COVID-19 pandemic in Shanghai March 2022 is adequately categorised, especially within Category:March 2022 events by country via Category:March 2022 events in China. Oculi (talk) 12:03, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Fine, we could delete this, I am just translating from Chinese Wikipedia.QiuLiming1 (talk) 15:50, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * The category structure on the English Wikipedia is probably the most useful but inflexible organizing tool on the project. It's an interlinked pyramid and categories can not exist is isolation so kudos to Marcocapelle for assigning parent categories to this one. Liz Read! Talk! 19:33, 8 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom; no reason to separate by country. I've also nominated CN Current for deletion for a similar reason. Elli (talk &#124; contribs) 20:11, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Capitalse China if retained. Laurel Lodged (talk) 08:34, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
