 * The result of the discussion was: rename. (non-admin closure) C LYDE  TALK TO ME/STUFF DONE 13:31, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Kōchi to Category:Kōchi, Kōchi
 * Nominator's rationale: to avoid confusion with the category for Kochi, Kerala which I also proposed the move of just now. This one seems to be less misused than the other one though, I cannot see anything at first glance that belongs in the other category Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 15:33, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Rename to Category:Kochi, Japan: if people are already mistaking the city for another one in a different country, why would having said city's name written twice (as a prefecture, I know, but still) make that any less confusing? "Japan", meanwhile, is quite unmistakable. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 19:54, 13 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Rename as nominated per WP:C2D, the article is at Kōchi, Kōchi. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:01, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Rename as nominated; Kochi (disambiguation) shows that in Japan there is also Kōchi, Hiroshima, so "Kochi, Japan" would be ambiguous. – Fayenatic  L ondon 09:09, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Rename per nom as Fayenatic illustrates that there are two places with this name in Japan. ♦ Dr. Blofeld  08:42, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: These categories only contain one article or sub-cat, which is already within another sub-cat of namely . They are therefore not currently useful for navigation. – Fayenatic  L ondon 11:59, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 * @Fayenatic london oppose, baptism and evangelicalism are not the same thing and both are defining characteristics. There are non-evangelical baptist groups. I will support this on a case by case basis if such churches are not properly established as evangelical. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 19:14, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: soft delete. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the page's undeletion . (non-admin closure) C LYDE  TALK TO ME/STUFF DONE 13:35, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting evangelical deacons
 * Propose deleting baptist deacon
 * Nominator's rationale: This is not a WP:Defining role in Baptist and other Evangelical churches. It is a position of trust, but generally of administrative responsibility rather than leadership, although individual deacons may also have leadership roles in their local churches. See Deacon. I have ensured that all the member pages are categorised as Baptists/Evangelicals by nationality. – Fayenatic  L ondon 11:02, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Christian denominations in Vanuatu to Category:Christianity in Vanuatu
 * Propose merging Category:Christian denominations in Equatorial Guinea to Category:Protestantism in Equatorial Guinea
 * Nominator's rationale: These currently contain only 2 sub-cats for Catholic Church and Protestantism, and are not very useful for navigation. (Equatorial Guinea is not currently populated that way but Catholic and Protestant are the most that could be put in it.) – Fayenatic  L ondon 09:18, 13 September 2023 (UTC)


 * I am not convinced that the national categories in Category:Christian denominations by country with 3 sub-cats are useful either. Egypt does not have one; would Category:Christianity in Egypt be better with a sub-cat for Catholic, Eastern and Protestant? – Fayenatic  L ondon 09:42, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom. Besides I am not convinced that any national category is necessary and if they are kept they should be renamed to denominational families per Category:Christian denominational families. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:36, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
