 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Suffragists. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  10:37, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose splitting Category:Tanganyikan suffragists to Category:Suffragists and Category:People from Tanganyika
 * Nominator's rationale: This country existed for less than a decade. It doesn't need to be diffuse by type of activist yet. Mason (talk) 22:58, 31 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment Tanganyika existed from 1916 until 1961 (initially as a colony, then as an independent country). Number   5  7  23:16, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge for now without objection to recreate the category when more articles are published. But only merge to Category:Suffragists because the article is already deeper down in the tree of Category:People from Tanganyika. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:46, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Solomon Islands men by occupation to Category:Solomon Islands men

Relisting comment: I have tagged Category:Solomon Islands men. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, House Blaster talk 19:42, 23 December 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Qwerfjkl  talk  20:22, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Just delete, it would remain the only subcategory of the target too. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:04, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
 * @Marcocapelle, are you suggesting Category:Solomon Islands men be deleted as well? Qwerfjkl  talk  10:45, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 * The consequence of deleting Category:Solomon Islands men by occupation is leaving Category:Solomon Islands men empty, that is right. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:01, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Community colleges in the British Virgin Islands to Category:Educational organisations based in the British Virgin Islands, Category:Community colleges in British Overseas Territories and Category:Universities and colleges in the Caribbean

 * Nominator's rationale: Not a useful category. Both categories are already present in Category:Universities and colleges by continent. –Aidan721 (talk) 17:58, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Support per nom Mason (talk) 21:58, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

Category:Ophthalmic conditions emphasizing symbolism

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  17:01, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Ophthalmic conditions emphasizing symbolism to Category:Cultural depictions of disabled people
 * Nominator's rationale: Not defining. Could be repurposed to Cultural depictions of people with eye diseases or something like that Mason (talk) 16:01, 31 December 2023 (UTC)


 * It is not about disability per se. What about Category:Fiction about eye diseases? Marcocapelle (talk) 18:23, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * This is a very confusingly named category. Going by the members, it seems the actual intention was something like "weird eyes in fiction". I don't think that's something that warrants a category, so just delete. The single subcat Category:Fictional characters with eye diseases is already adequately under Category:Fictional characters with physical and congenital disorders. --Paul_012 (talk) 19:54, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I would not oppose deletion either. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:41, 1 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete per Paul_012. QuicoleJR (talk) 23:40, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Category:Bookstores of Ireland

 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was: rename. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  17:02, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Bookstores of Ireland to Category:Bookshops of Ireland
 * Nominator's rationale: This category should be worded in Irish English, which uses the term "bookshop" rather than "bookstore". The "bookshops" term is used in Category:Bookshops of the United Kingdom, Category:Bookshops of Scotland, Category:Bookshops of England and Category:Bookshops of Australia because that is the term used in those countries. The same logic should apply to Ireland. Gatepainter (talk) 15:42, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  17:03, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:American football teams disestablished in 1932 to Category:Sports clubs and teams disestablished in 1932
 * Nominator's rationale: Only one subject present in this category Let&#39;srun (talk) 15:16, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. Now it has three - and from my past research, there are certainly to be more notable entries that can be added once they're created; our coverage of early non-NFL professional football is poor. BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:56, 31 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Procedural oppose, there is no point in removing just 1932 from a series of consecutive years. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:46, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting category
 * Propose merging category to Category:Gitega
 * Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary categorization of buildings and structures in a small city. Merge until it can be sufficiently populated. –Aidan721 (talk) 14:23, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: manual merge. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  17:05, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Works about cannibals to Category:Works about cannibalism
 * Nominator's rationale: Obviously a redundant and unnecessary category, as works about cannibalism would by necessity feature cannibals (and vice versa). <small style="font-size:80%;">silviaASH  <small style="font-size:70%;">(inquire within)  10:53, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete both. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  20:49, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Crimes in the Irish Free State by decade to Category:Crimes in the Irish Free State
 * Nominator's rationale: Rename to Crimes in the Irish Free State. There's no need to distinguish by decade, when there isn't even a main category Mason (talk) 02:43, 31 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Just delete the subcategory, after I just added the article to Category:1921 crimes in Ireland. I will tag the subcategory too. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:17, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Support deletion per above. –Aidan721 (talk) 13:49, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * @Aidan721, @Marcocapelle, I assume you're proposing deleting both. Is that correct? Qwerfjkl  talk  17:10, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * yes, correct, once the subcategory is deleted the nominated category will be empty. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:23, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * correct. –Aidan721 (talk) 19:22, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Diplomatic missions in Barbados. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  17:11, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Diplomatic missions in Bridgetown to Category:Diplomatic missions in Barbados and Category:Bridgetown
 * Nominator's rationale: Narrow intersection. Unlikely to reasonably grow in the near future. Currently only has one article. –Aidan721 (talk) 02:20, 31 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom, but only to Category:Diplomatic missions in Barbados. Categorizing a diplomatic mission by location is unnecessary when the location is the country's capital. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:25, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Ecosocialist parties to Category:Eco-socialist parties
 * Nominator's rationale: Grammatical correction. The correct spelling is "eco-socialist", which is also consistent with the main Wikipedia page for this, namely "Eco-socialism". Helper201 (talk) 01:37, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

 * What is the procedure now for this. Will it get moved into speedy by someone else like an admin or via an automated process? If I have to do it, do I have to wait for this to officially be closed before I can nominate if for a speedy rename? Helper201 (talk) 04:24, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
