 * Keep - other articles could be added to this category: Moomin World, Moomin Museum, Metsä (theme park). Goustien (talk) 04:19, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination and Marcocapelle. QuietHere (talk &#124; contributions) 10:17, 20 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete, Moomin World, Moomin Museum, Metsä (theme park) aren't in-fiction locations so they do not fit the category tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:40, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and marco. Mason (talk) 04:47, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Cao Wei Buddhists‎ (1 P) to Category:Three Kingdoms Buddhists‎
 * Propose merging Category:Eastern Wu Buddhists‎‎ (1 C, 2 P) to Category:Three Kingdoms Buddhists‎ and Category:People of Eastern Wu
 * Propose merging Category:Eastern Wu Buddhist monks‎ (1 P) to Category:Chinese Buddhist monks‎ and Category:Three Kingdoms Buddhists‎ and Category:People of Eastern Wu
 * Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:NARROWCAT, a relatively short period in Chinese history from 220 to 280 AD does not require splitting in every of the three parallel kingdoms. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:22, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

 * *Propose deleting category
 * Nominator's rationale: Non-notable, pointless, one-off categorization. Unnecessary in light of Category:Philosophers. Tkaras1 (talk) 15:36, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:32, 19 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete, we do not categorize by education level. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:07, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete It is outside the scope of Wikipedia's categorization methods. desmay (talk) 18:25, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Category:Australian-themed retailers

 * Propose deleting australian-themed retailers
 * Nominator's rationale: The only category of its kind that I can find with the name of a nation and themed retailers on Wikipedia. This category does not make any sense as these are companies with operations in Australia, but are not Australian-themed. Themed would imply something implicit about Australian culture or history. This can be considered to be OR as the majority of articles don't make mention that they are based on the concept of Australian culture.

They would include Bloomin' Brands, Deliveroo, Gillyhicks, Kangaroo (video on demand), KangaRoos, and Kangol. Australia Dairy Company has little to do with it other than materials imported from the country. Australian Homemade is just the name of a sweets company. Bloomin' Brands is just a holding company that owns several restaurant chains.

Outback Steakhouse and Walkabout (pub chain) are the only two businesses with a theme based on Australia, but even then two articles would be too small for a category like this.

The categories that this is under Retailers by type of merchandise sold, Works about Australia, and Retailing in Australia have no relevance as these are not works in terms of literature, films, music, etc. usually considered in the line of popular culture. No evidence they sell Australian-type merchandise if that is even a thing.

And while Retailing in Australia would be considered since a couple of them do business in Australia, they should be in the Retailing category than this one if it applies. Australian Homemade is under Category:Restaurant chains in Australia, under a subcat of Australian brands, which is a subcat of the main Retailing in Australia category.

 * The result of the discussion was: dual merge. (non-admin closure)  Qwerfjkl  talk  16:50, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Propose merging Category:Albanian basketball players by populated place to Category:Basketball players by populated place
 * Nominator's rationale: Container category containing only two categories. User:Namiba 11:43, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Dual merge per Grutness. Omnis Scientia (talk) 18:19, 19 June 2024 (UTC)


 * COMMENT: "By populated place" categories are generally kept as long as they have more than one subcat. If consensus is to merge, it should be upmerged to both and, with no prejudice against re-creation if more "by populated place" categories arise. Grutness...  wha?   16:08, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Dual merge, redundant category layer. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:10, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose deleting children of two peers and peeresses created life peers


 * Category:Children of two peers and peeresses created life peers to Category:Children of two peers and peeresses – C2E. I created this category. Some people may be children of a life peer and a hereditary peer, so not qualifying for this category. A new category purely for such an example, like Charlotte Hogg, would be too niche, so perhaps it is better to broaden the scope so that there is a category covering anyone whose parents were/are both peers, regardless of the type of peerage. TrottieTrue (talk) 23:57, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:TRIVIALCAT, but that should be discussed in full CfD of course. Marcocapelle (talk) 02:29, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Moved to full Cfd. Omnis Scientia (talk) 09:45, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Propose merging Category:Kryvyi Rih National University, General Faculty alumni to Category:Kryvyi Rih National University alumni
 * Propose merging Category:Kryvyi Rih National University, General Faculty to Category:Kryvyi Rih National University
 * Nominator's rationale: Upmerge. Kryvyi Rih National University, General Faculty is a redundant category layer, and the alumni category only has 1 person in it. Mason (talk) 01:58, 19 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 02:16, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Athletes by religion

 * The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkl  talk  16:51, 27 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Propose deleting Category:Athletes by religion
 * Propose deleting Category:Muslim athletes
 * Propose deleting Category:Muslim basketball players
 * Propose deleting Category:Muslim boxers
 * Propose deleting Category:Muslim American football players


 * Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCTRIVIAL, there is a long-standing consensus against intertwining sports and religion on Wikipedia (see here for example), and I struggle to see how these categories are any different. Because the article entries appear to be only from the United States, perhaps there could be a move discussion to something like Category:American Muslim athletes or Category:American athletes by religion as that may have been the creator's intention, but that still would seem to fail the site's category guidelines. Inter&#38;anthro (talk) 20:21, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Please note that this differs from Jewish athletes since Judaism is both an ethnicity and a religion (an ethnoreligion) and most Jewish athletes identity as Jewish by virtue of being born Jewish and very few (VERY few) actually convert. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:36, 19 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:OCEGRS. please note that WP:OCEGRS applies to both ethnicity and religion. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:49, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Indeed but there are exceptions to that rule as well. Omnis Scientia (talk) 19:31, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I can't see why. There are lots of Jewish categories for sure but that is just because WP:OCEGRS is not well reinforced. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:23, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
 * That is fair. If you want, I can go through them. Omnis Scientia (talk) 11:53, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
