 * Propose deleting saint patrick's day food
 * Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization on a non-defining characteristic. Of the four things filed here, three have no special association with St. Patrick's Day per se, but are just bog-standard parts of everyday cuisine in Ireland or other regions with Irish-influenced local cuisines -- so while it would certainly be possible to eat them on St. Patrick's Day, they aren't uniquely "St. Patrick's Day foods" that would be defined by any special association with that day. Only one thing here, the McDonald's shamrock shake, is actually a uniquely St. Patrick's Day thing at all, and that's not enough for a category. Bearcat (talk) 16:23, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting male radio personalities
 * Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT for a non-defining characteristic. As at Categories for discussion/Log/2023 October 20, the problem here is that while the category is technically expandable, per WP:CATEGRS categories for women do not always need to be balanced against equivalent categories for men as a matter of course, but rather it depends on context. Like many jobs, radio broadcasting was very disproportionately seen as "man's work" for much of history, with women vastly underrepresented until at least the 1970s and possibly more like the 1980s -- meaning that this would be an unbrowsably massive megacategory for a good 75 per cent of all the articles we have about radio broadcasters. We categorize women because they're an underrepresented minority, whose participation in radio broadcasting as a career occasions sociological study -- so the relationship between career and gender is only defining for women in this instance, because it's a field where only women get gender-based analysis of the relationship between their career and their gender. Men in broadcasting are just broadcasters, and only women are "gendered broadcasters". Bearcat (talk) 15:37, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Merge to Category:20th-century murdered monarchs, the article is about a prince rather than a politician. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:27, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. Even though I have added more pages so now there are 5, this category is part of the grandparent Category:Assassinated politicians by nationality which often has subcategories of only one page. I oppose merging. Being a prince doesn't preclude being a politician also. Although not all princes are or were politicians, many princes historically have been also politicians, which was the case with Andreas Kopasis, who is in the category at hand and was a ruler.

 * Nominator's rationale: The diffusion of categories within Category:Singles by record label probably needs to be thought out more than just starting out with a couple of random labels and attempting to split them by decade of the singles release. Singles/songs are already well categorized by year, artist, producer, label, etc. I propose a reset and if there is concern about overpopulated categories for songs (and albums?) by record label, it should be discussed at a wider venue to be able to carry it out en masse.

 * Support per nom. Singles are already separated by year, we do not need to do the same for record labels. --Richhoncho (talk) 14:51, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
 * PS. I know of no technical reason why these should be split, if there is, then different arguments apply. However, if you are looking for a song it will be in alphabetical order however the categories are split, whowever more difficult to find if you are not sure of which decade, or in the case of songs re-released in different decades. Let's make it easier for the reader. My opposition to separating by decade has become more entrenched. --Richhoncho (talk) 10:04, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
