 * Propose renaming Category:People in Portuguese Mozambique to Category:People from Portuguese Mozambique
 * Nominator's rationale: I'm not sure what to propose as a rename, but I don't think "in" is the right preposition. I'm inclined towards "from" and treat this like a nationality category, and clean it up. Mason (talk) 22:00, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: delete. – Fayenatic  L ondon 20:20, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting talk show hosts named james
 * Nominator's rationale: I can't be bothered to cite to a specific rule this violates but I don't think I need to. This should be speedily deleted. Dennis C. Abrams (talk) 18:22, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Support. The specific rules that could work are: trivial intersection and not defining (and might just be paraphrases of the same rule) Mason (talk) 22:02, 19 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment Category has been emptied by the nominator. Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 01:07, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: speedy delete. CSD G7 Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 18:59, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting executed confederates
 * Nominator's rationale: This category mixes together two unrelated topics. Those in this category (like Albert Parsons) were all former Confederates by the time of their execution. Their executions had nothing to do with their former citizenships in the Confederated States of America. User:Namiba 16:47, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Support. I agree with you in principle, but we should probably make sure that the former confederates are recategorized. Mason (talk) 22:04, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
 * All 3 articles are already in other Confederate categories.--User:Namiba 16:31, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting current table tennis seasons
 * Nominator's rationale: Not enough table tennis season articles to justify this category. Unused. Parent cats could be used instead. Pelmeen10 (talk) 16:18, 19 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete, "current" is a temporary characteristic, hence not defining. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:36, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per the above. Edward-Woodrow  •  talk  21:51, 23 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting current squash seasons
 * Nominator's rationale: Seems overkill to have a category for only 1 article. Parent cats could be used instead. Pelmeen10 (talk) 16:15, 19 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete, "current" is a temporary characteristic, hence not defining. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:36, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Hmm, but this is part of a hierarchy Category:Current sports seasons. All the subcats are marked as "may be empty some of the time". User:Armbrust split that parent in 2009 from the even older Category:Current sports events. – Fayenatic  L ondon 12:51, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting current poker seasons
 * Nominator's rationale: Not used, most seasons are too short fot this category to have effect. Both parent categories are perfectly fine to be used instead. Pelmeen10 (talk) 16:10, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Propose renaming Category:Torch (rapper) albums to Category:Torch (German rapper) albums
 * Nominator's rationale: The page Torch (rapper) is a disambiguation page. The only page in this category is Blauer Samt which is an album by Torch (German rapper). This category should be renamed per Category names. Jeeputer  <sup style="font-weight:bold; color:#006B3C">Talk  11:24, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: overlapping cats Mason (talk) 01:01, 19 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment, there is no clear convention yet, some siblings in Category:Obstetricians by nationality are called "Obstetricians" and others "Obstetricians and gynaecologists". Marcocapelle (talk) 06:26, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't think we should have all three categories for two people.
 * Vasily Stroganov is in the OG category,
 * Nadezhda Suslova is in both O and G categories.
 * Mason (talk) 22:09, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
