 * Comment, I have taken the liberty to merge the nominations. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:20, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose - there are many Frank Millers, and at least 3 of them (Frank Miller (screenwriter), Frank Miller (newspaper cartoonist), Frank Miller (editorial cartoonist)) could have produced works, comics, screenplays and directed films. It was a strange decision to rename the article. (Eg there is Category:Films directed by Frank Miller (screenwriter).) Oculi (talk) 12:28, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Retain Category:Frank Miller (comics), which clearly needs a disambiguator and merge to it all the rest, except Category:Characters created by Frank Miller (comics). "works" is a useless level that merely leads to some others and the rest are too small to keep.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:08, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
