 * The result of the discussion was: delete. SD by me (creator). (non-admin closure)  Coop  (talk) 07:31, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose deleting ghais guevara
 * Nominator's rationale: One additional article besides the main article. No need for an eponymous category, too. Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 23:09, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete: Sorry, I am not familiar with the criteria for categories. I have tagged it for speedy deletion.  Coop  (talk) 07:02, 29 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete, the two articles are already directly interlinked. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:12, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Category:American men centenarians

 * 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 * The result of the discussion was: withdrawn.. (non-admin closure) Omnis Scientia (talk) 14:27, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose splitting Category:American men centenarians to Category:American centenarians and Category:Men centenarians
 * Nominator's rationale: Upmerge with parent categories for now. This is the only cross between nationality and gender for centenarians. I don't know how necessary it is but there is no such other category like it at the moment. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:08, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * (Category creator) Given how many entries each parent category current has (1,735 and 2,920, respectively), I don't think diffusing them hurts. I'm sure a lot more of these could be made for the same reason, they just haven't been yet. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 02:51, 29 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Comment, one may wonder if centenarian is still a special thing, as we meanwhile have a large number of articles about supercentenarians too. Readers interested in the extreme age topic will find enough material in the supercentenarians tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:19, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @Marcocapelle, I would say that people are definitely more likely to live to a 100 now than they were in the past but that its still rare enough to be a notable thing. Of course, that is only my opinion and probably a much bigger debate should be had on this matter.
 * As for this particular one, the question is whether these categories should be diffused and more categories like Category:American men centenarians should be made. I can see that diffusion can make navigation easier. Omnis Scientia (talk) 12:55, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting nationalists of asian nations
 * Propose deleting nationalists of european nations
 * Propose deleting nationalists of middle eastern nations
 * Propose deleting nationalists of north american nations
 * Propose deleting nationalists of oceanian nations
 * Propose deleting nationalists of south american nations
 * Nominator's rationale: WP:POVFORKs of Category:Nationalists by nationality. The catnames assert the existence of said "nations", which is a controversial subject as a whole, and controversial in every single example ever asserted due to competing claims of various nationalists. All contents are found in the Category:Nationalists by nationality tree already anyway. NLeeuw (talk) 22:36, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose upmerging Category:Nationalism in the Arab world to Category:Nationalist movements in the Middle East
 * Nominator's rationale: WP:OVERLAPCAT. Almost completely the same contents, except framing the Middle East in terms of the largest ethnolinguistic group, the Arabs. NLeeuw (talk) 22:24, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting donor conceived people
 * Nominator's rationale: Non-defining. Although the cat is interesting, this category isn't a defining feature for anyone but the very first cases, which isn't the case for most of the folks ib here Mason (talk) 22:11, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Indian squatter leaders to Category:Squatter leaders and Category:Indian housing rights activists
 * Propose merging Category:Squatter leaders in New York City to Category:Squatter leaders and Category:Housing rights activists from New York City
 * Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. each of these categories only has 1 person in it, which isn't helpful for navigation, especially considering how small the parent category is Mason (talk) 21:59, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting murdered artists
 * Nominator's rationale: Non-defining intersection between occupation and specific cause of death. I've ensured that each member of the category is in an artists category and a murder victim category. Mason (talk) 21:08, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: rename and split as nominated. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 23:55, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Iraqi Turkish poets to Category:Turkish-language Iraqi poets
 * Propose splitting Category:Iraqi Kurdish poets to Category:Kurdish-language Iraqi poets and Category:Kurdish poets
 * Nominator's rationale: Language and ethnicity are different. The Kurdish category needs to be split. Mason (talk) 17:07, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Iraqi Kurdistan is a thing though. An autonomous semi-independent region with its own citizenship, if not nationality. I think what you are proposing is a change of scope. Lots of inhabitants of Iraqi Kurdistan do not speak or write Kurdish. NLeeuw (talk) 22:47, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I'm happy to add another split target. My impression was that these two categories were intended to be language categories based on them being in Iraqi poets by language. Mason (talk) 03:29, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Iraqi Turkmen is also an ethnic group, but I agree with Mason that poets are better to be categorized by language that they are writing in. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:36, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Fair points. Taking a closer look, I see that Iraqi Kurdistan and Kurdistan Region are two separate articles, the latter the political one. Alright, Support per nom. NLeeuw (talk) 05:54, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Category:Sámi textbook writers

 * 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:Sámi non-fiction writers and Category:Textbook writers; the argument surrounding OCEGRS has not been rebutted. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 17:30, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Sámi textbook writers to Category:Sámi non-fiction writers and Category:Textbook writers
 * Nominator's rationale: This is not a defining intersection under WP:EGRS. The intersection of textbook writers and sami ethnicity isn't defining. (FYI: the existence of non-sami versions of the category is not sufficient.) Mason (talk) 16:14, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * To be blunt, it is defining in a Sámi context and even on the enwp, even if it is not in your opinion. The category exists to differentiate Sámi non-fiction writers who are textbook writers from those Sámi non-fiction writers who are not textbook writers. Or seen from the other direction: Sámi non-fiction writers can write multiple different types of books, not just textbooks. - Yupik (talk) 16:39, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * How is it defining under EGRS? I looked but did not find evidence that this was an established intersection in academic sources. Even if you were to argue that the category is helpful for diffusion, you still need to make the case that this is a defining category. Mason (talk) 17:01, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @Yupik Please review EGRS, saying something is defining in a sami context isn't particularly convincing, unless you can point to evidence. Mason (talk) 17:04, 28 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Merge, unless any counter evidence is provided this is a straightforward application of the WP:OC guideline. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:42, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting cultural depictions of zanzibari people
 * Nominator's rationale: Redudant category layer. There's only one category in here, Category:Cultural depictions of Freddie Mercury‎, which probably... isn't a defining feature of FM. Mason (talk) 16:07, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting c+vg hit award winners
 * Nominator's rationale: A category for recipients of an awarded by a video game magazine. There are hundreds of magazines awarding their own awards. Not defining. soetermans . ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 15:22, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * See also this earlier discussion:Categories for discussion/Log/2024 February 27. soetermans . ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 15:25, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. CVG is the oldest and longest running magazine in the world. Very well respected, and being a multi format magazine, it offers a unique perspective and way of comparing games across generations. The award was used as a selling point in videogames advertising. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.148.155.34 (talk) 15:47, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Pro-Khalistan rebel groups. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 21:28, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:Pro-Khalistan militant outfits to Category:Pro-Khalistan organizations Category:Pro-Khalistan rebel groups
 * Nominator's rationale: rename, "militant outfits" is a phrase that I have never seen before in category names. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:29, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Qwerfjkl  talk  14:35, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment This is a confusing tree. I'm not voting anything yet, I think we need to explore the options first. The main article appears to be Groups of Khalistan movement, which is also a grammatically incorrect title. I think the parent categories provide the best clues: these are Sikh rebel or terrorist groups which seek to establish an independent Khalistan or Sikh state in Punjab through armed violence. I think "organisations" is too generic. How about "Khalistan rebel groups", "Khalistan militant groups" or "Khalistan terrorist organisations"? The articles seem to say almost every single one of them, except Sikhs for Justice, has been designated a terrorist organisation by the government of India, and sometimes other states as well. But since "terrorist" can be POV, "rebel groups" is perhaps more neutral. NLeeuw (talk) 09:59, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * "Rebel groups" is certainly more to the point than the too general "organizations" and this is an established category as well. So definitely an improvement. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:31, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Any thoughts on "Khalistan" versus "pro-Khalistan"? This is the only cat in the tree to use "pro-"; it seems redundant, although not necessarily wrong. NLeeuw (talk) 20:37, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * No opinion about that. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:15, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'll Support a rename to Category:Pro-Khalistan rebel groups. The "pro-" part is okay for now. NLeeuw (talk) 15:10, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: manual upmerge. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 23:20, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Haitian people of Arab descent‎ (1 C, 1 P) Category:Haitian people of Asian descent‎
 * Propose merging Category:Haitian people of Egyptian descent‎ (1 C, 1 P) to Category:Haitian people of African descent‎
 * Propose merging Category:Egyptian emigrants to Haiti‎ (1 P) to Category:Haitian people of African descent‎, Category:Immigrants to Haiti and Category:Egyptian emigrants
 * Propose merging Category:Jamaican people of Arab descent‎ (2 P) to Category:Jamaican people of Asian descent‎
 * Propose merging Category:Cuban people of Arab descent (1 C, 1 P) to Category:Cuban people of Asian descent
 * Nominator's rationale: merge, very few articles and for the biographies it is not clear whether the subjects are really of ethnic Arab descent. They could be Druze, Copts, Assyrians, the articles just do not tell about it. A dual merge is not always needed, the biographies are already in Category:People of Syrian descent etc. and the topic articles are already in Category:Arab diaspora in the Caribbean.

 * Oppose The target category is inappropriate. There is a large Arab population in North Africa. Dimadick (talk) 16:47, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * The latter is a fair point, it should be split between Asian and African. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:27, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Assassinated Pakistani journalists. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 17:28, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose splitting Category:Assassinated Baloch journalists to Category:Baloch journalists and Category:Assassinated Pakistani journalists
 * Nominator's rationale: Dual upmerge. There's no need to diffuse the intersection of ethnity, cause of death, nationality, and occupation. Mason (talk) 12:42, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom. While Dimadick is right, Marco's point about the articles being about Pakistan are correct too. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:50, 29 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom but only merge to Category:Assassinated Pakistani journalists. The articles are still in Category:Baloch journalists except one article that does not belong there anyway. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:55, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose Baloch people are not limited to Pakistan. They are spread over Iran and Afghanistan. Dimadick (talk) 16:44, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Good to know. I was basing the nom off of the parent categories. So manual merge to the correct Assassinated nationality? Mason (talk) 17:22, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * All articles in the category are about Pakistan so merging to Pakistan only is alright in this case. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:49, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom to Category:Assassinated Pakistani journalists. Wikibear47 (talk) 18:26, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting abdi i̇pekçi
 * Nominator's rationale: WP:Shared name Mason (talk) 12:40, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Cumhuriyet people. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 16:28, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose splitting Category:Murdered Cumhuriyet columnists to Category:Cumhuriyet people and Category:Murdered Turkish journalists
 * Nominator's rationale: 2x upmerge. I don't think we ought to diffuse murdered journalists by whether they worked for a specific journal. Mason (talk) 12:23, 28 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Merge, per nom, but only to Category:Cumhuriyet people. All articles are already in Category:Assassinated Turkish journalists. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:02, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me Mason (talk) 14:30, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: withdrawn (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 11:33, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose renaming Category:North African-Jewish diaspora to Category:Maghrebi-Jewish diaspora
 * Propose renaming Category:People of North African-Jewish descent‎ to Category:People of Maghrebi-Jewish descent‎
 * Propose merging Category:North African-Jewish culture in Israel‎ to Category:Maghrebi Jewish culture in Israel
 * Nominator's rationale: North African Jews is a redirect to Maghrebi Jews. Egyptian Jews are already in the tree of Middle Eastern Jews. Aldij (talk) 09:15, 28 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Oppose, Maghrebi Jews appears to exclude North African Sefardi Jews. The redirect should be converted to a disambiguation page. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:04, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Marco. I also agree with his suggestion on the redirect. Omnis Scientia (talk) 13:48, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Withdraw the nomination. --Aldij (talk) 08:50, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

North Asia

 * The result of the discussion was: redirect and delete as nominated. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 00:03, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose emptying Category:North Asia and redirect to Category:Siberia
 * Propose deleting Category:North Asian countries
 * Propose deleting Category:Former countries in North Asia
 * Propose deleting Category:Former monarchies of North Asia
 * Propose deleting Category:Archaeology of Northern Asia‎
 * Propose deleting Category:Archaeological cultures of Northern Asia
 * Propose deleting Category:North Asian culture
 * Propose deleting Category:Economy of North Asia
 * Propose deleting Category:History of North Asia
 * Propose merging Category:Exploration of North Asia with Category:Explorers of North Asia to Category:Exploration of Siberia
 * Propose deleting Category:Jews and Judaism in North Asia
 * Nominator's rationale: delete/redirect, the content in these categories is broader than North Asia which is not very helpful, e.g. about Russia as a whole, or the Soviet Union as a whole. Even the Japanese Empire is among its former countries. The only content that really belongs is about Siberia, which already has its own categories, except for Category:Exploration of Siberia. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:55, 28 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete all per nom. If you hadn't nominated them, I would have done it sooner or later. NLeeuw (talk) 22:18, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: merge or delete, whichever term you fancy. (non-admin closure) House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 16:27, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Turkish telenovelas to Category:Turkish television soap operas
 * Nominator's rationale: Duplicate category. Telenovelas are basically the same as soap operas. The only difference between the two is length of series. Telenovelafan215 (talk) 04:47, 28 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete (or merge), there isn't any particular telenovela in this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:55, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment Category:Turkish telenovelas is an empty category. Could've been tagged CSD C1. Nothing present to Merge. Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 06:19, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
 * A little earlier there was a topic article in it. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:54, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. there's only one person in this category which is unhelpful for navigation Mason (talk) 03:30, 28 April 2024 (UTC)


 * I found a few more. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:52, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
