 * The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  08:52, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Culture of the Sultanate of Rum to Category:Sultanate of Rum
 * Nominator's rationale: Merge, only contains 1 sub-cat. The buildings sub-cat is adequately parented and does not need to be merged to other parents. – Fayenatic  L ondon 22:00, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  08:54, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting Category:19th-century African-American men
 * Propose deleting Category:20th-century African-American men
 * Propose deleting Category:21st-century African-American men
 * Nominator's rationale: delete, redundant category layer with only one subcategory each. There is no reason to merge, the subcategories are already part of Category:African-American male singers. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:53, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: no consensus. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  08:55, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Latin percussion to Category:Latin percussion instruments
 * Propose renaming Category:Brazilian percussion to Category:Brazilian percussion instruments
 * Propose renaming Category:Orchestral percussion to Category:Orchestral percussion instruments
 * Nominator's rationale: rename to align with parent Category:Percussion instruments by tradition and as far as I can see these categories mainly contain instruments. Move the main articles to Category:Percussion but keep a link to them in the header of these category pages. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:23, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Oppose. Nom's rationale as far as I can see these categories mainly contain instruments (my emphasis) is weak to say the least. These are useful categories and descoping them to exclude all but instruments is unnecessary and excessively precise. Agree that work is needed. We need discussion as to what the overall category structure should be for percussion instruments. Drummers (I am one) are notorious for holding strong POVs and I used to regularly remove them from the drum kit article. We can't fix that but we can remove as much as possible of these POVs. Andrewa (talk) 12:14, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
 * It is still odd that the parent categories are limited to instruments but these are not. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:57, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: rename as per nom. Note that articles don't use articles unless it is part of the name. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  08:58, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:National members of the European Union of Gymnastics to Category:National members of the European Gymnastics
 * Nominator's rationale: Parent article is European Gymnastics, name change in 2020. Pelmeen10 (talk) 11:28, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Support but rename to "National members of European Gymnastics" because the European Gymnastics article doesn't use "the" in front of "European Gymnastics". Mucube (talk · contribs) 23:12, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
