 * Support, the current names suggest they were ruling a county or duchy named Germany, but that was obviously not the case. Marcocapelle (talk) 02:36, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Exactly. And although there have arguably been "kings of Germany", we either call them Category:Kings of the Romans (Reges Romanorum) or "Kings of the Germans/Teutons" (Reges Teutonicorum), see Kingdom of Germany. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 07:58, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Political music albums by Welsh artists to Category:Political music albums
 * Nominator's rationale: SMALLCATs each with just a single entry. Ignore genre categories as music and politics does not present political music as its own genre and it shouldn't be classified as such. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 12:45, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete entire scheme We don't have album by genre cats when we don't have articles for the genre (or else there would be an infinite amount of sub-sub-sub-genre metal cats). ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 16:55, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
 * The entire scheme has not been nominated (yet) so this should be a merge as nominated rather than a delete. In case the entire scheme is deleted (in a later stage) we might manually move some articles to Category:Protest music. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:47, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Agree with Marco that this is beyond the scope of this specific discussion and it would feel inappropriate to change the proposal, but if anyone were to nominate the whole tree for deletion then I'd likely support that. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 03:18, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Proposed Deleting Category:Members of gentlemen's clubs
 * Propose Deleting Category:Members of the Kit-Kat Club
 * Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCASSOC, WP:PERFCAT, & WP:NONDEFINING The Kit-Kat Club was an 18th century gentlemen's club in London. At the time, it was known for Whig politics but now it's mostly remembered for popularizing a new format for portraits. The membership is not treated as defining since most of the articles don't even mention this, although a minority mention being a member or getting a portrait done there. The only exception is Charles Dartiquenave who has a whole section but it's mostly about how awesome his portrait is, which I've shared here for your admiration. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:50, 26 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Background No conceptual objection to the parent category but this is the last subcategory we haven't already deleted; see here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:50, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per precedent. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:12, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment - A list already exists here: Kit-Cat_Club. - jc37 13:34, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose Deleting Category:Members of Chunichi Shimbun
 * Nominator's rationale: Per WP:CATNAME and maybe WP:OCASSOC
 * The only article in this category is Toki Ginjiro who was a deputy editor of the Tokyo Shimbun newspaper which is owned by the Chunichi Shimbun media company. I don't think that Mr. Ginjiro is a "member" of that parent company in any sense and wonder if that is a translation issue. (If other articles can be found, no objection to creating a "people" category later for employees.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:50, 26 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete, a single-article category does not aid navigation. If kept, rename to Category:Chunichi Shimbun people. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:15, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
