The result of the debate was delete

Was populated (in heavy quotes, with all of two articles) by Zimbabwe-ethno-group-stub which fed into three categories. Two of those made sense, i.e. the the double-upmerged ones. This one doesn't, on size and redundancy grounds (hence I've already recatted the template). Delete this, keep the upmerged template. Alai 21:28, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

The result of the debate was rename, delete

Unproposed, unused, and above all, unnecessary. Also ambiguously named templates and misnamed and miscapitalised categories. Let's start with the templates: is "math-comp" for mathematical computation, computers, or competitions? With the categories, why the capital C and why competitions not competition? Also, why the second category, given that there is no permcat equivalent of ? Given that there appears to be a wikiproject, one stub template is probably reasonable (if it is properly named and iff it can reach the 30-stub threshold), but two is pushing it, especially since the equivalent permcat has fewer than 90 articles in total, stub or otherwise. Rename the first type to Math-competition-stub/ (upmerge if size appears to be a problem); delete the second type, and use the first template, double-stubbed with Mathematician-stub. Grutness...wha?  00:48, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
