 * I guess so. The Portuguese Wikipedia category also has a car, two bands, a soundtrack and a board game, but we have no articles on the last two, and the others do not belong in the category. – Fayenatic  L ondon 09:05, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting harry potter locations
 * Nominator's rationale: Or upmerge to Category:Fictional universe of Harry Potter. This is a WP:NARROWCAT or WP:SMALLCAT with no stand-alone notable articles that would make it suitable for Wikipedia. Jontesta (talk) 21:36, 10 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom but move Places in Harry Potter to Category:Fictional universe of Harry Potter in order to keep it in the Harry Potter tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:13, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete subject to the above. The list is already in the other parent, and Hogwarts is in HP organisations. – Fayenatic  L ondon 09:16, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge to Category:Fictional universe of Harry Potter. Not enough content for a separate category.  I can glad to find this is not places used as sets in making the films.  Peterkingiron (talk) 19:24, 12 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Pokémon species redirected to lists to Category:Pokémon species redirects to lists
 * Nominator's rationale: I'm planning on creating R from fictional species as a new rcat to compliment R from fictional character (mostly just to have a proper template just for this one child category though there are other use cases like for Star Wars), but the generally accepted format for is for the child categories of Category:All fictional X redirects to be formatted as Category: X redirects to lists. For that reason, I believe this should be renamed. &#8211; MJL &thinsp;‐Talk‐☖ 19:11, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: There's an inconsistency problem in this category tree which is proving incredibly disruptive because redlinked categories keep showing up at Special:WantedCategories for categories which already exist at the opposite form, but which has resisted multiple CFR attempts to resolve it in the past. If the unhyphenated set is listed for renaming to the hyphenated form, then the nomination fails on the grounds that the parent is unhyphenated — but if the hyphenated set is listed for renaming to the unhyphenated form, then the nomination founders on the argument that the the parent was purportedly renamed wrongly and should have the hyphen readded to it. So, unfortunately, the only option left is a comprehensive "A or B?" batch discussion that considers both possibilities at the same time. Note also, for the record, the consistent unhyphenation of the entire sibling  tree, and I'm not at all clear on why the hyphen would be necessary for fantasy comedies but not for fantasy dramas. I have no strong opinions either way except that consistency is necessary here, so we need to pick one form or the other and apply it across the board. Bearcat (talk) 16:25, 10 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Support both options A and B, surely do not close this as no consensus. If I'd have to choose between A and B then it would become A for consistency with Fantasy comedy films. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:49, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment - there's Category:Comedy-drama films which seems to be consistently hyphenated. However most of Category:Drama films by genre are unhyphenated. WP:C2C would suggest then Option A (unhyphenated). Oculi (talk) 00:39, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  15:14, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Washington Generals to Category:Harlem Globetrotters
 * Nominator's rationale: The Washington Generals have no existence outside of playing exhibition matches with the Harlem Globetrotters. There will never be any others in this category. User:Namiba 14:54, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose The article itself states that the team history is not exclusively tied to the Globetrotters and that it has played several games against other teams and participated in tournaments unrelated to the Globetrotters. Alvaldi (talk) 08:48, 11 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Oppose, it would be strange to have a subcat with players of one team sitting in the category tree of another team. Just deletion might be an option though, by lack of a fair amount of articles. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:24, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting fellows of the ethiopian academy of sciences
 * Nominator's rationale: There is no article for the Ethiopian Academy of Sciences. Should a category of fellows exist before an article on the academy? MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 01:26, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment the article appears to have been started on 9 November.--User:Namiba 16:32, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment There was no article when I nominated it at 20:26. It was made on 20:49. I think this can be withdrawn now as my concern has now been fulfilled. MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 18:10, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
