Nominator's rationale: The superior category is Category:Reggaeton musicians. There are 6 categories of reggaeton artists which can be speedily renamed if this is agreed. I dont think we should use the term "artists" when we are talking about musicians. Its a source of confusion. Rathfelder (talk) 22:21, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: delete as a trivial characteristic. Nowadays almost every exam or test is at least partly on multiple choice basis. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:02, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agree on the huge potential. The Multiple choice article contains a list of just over 30 items to begin with, which I consider a very low number. I guess the list is relatively short, and sources are limited, exactly because it is a too trivial characteristic. But I accept that my guess is not convincing so I withdraw the nomination as it stands. Creating Category:Multiple choice school examinations as a subcategory is an interesting idea to move forward though. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:12, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: "Possibly rename to Category:Multiple choice school examinations ": many multiple choice tests are not school examinations. Apokrif (talk) 04:30, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • The category was created as a subcategory of Category:School examinations, a set category, and thus all its contents should have been 'school examinations', which was not the case on 8 Oct 2021. The actual category (judging from its contents) looks like a topic category based on Multiple choice and Marcocapelle has accordingly reparented it (yesterday) to reflect this (a downside being to undermine my remarks above). Under the category tree of today I would recommend a new subcategory Category:Multiple choice examinations, also a subcat of Category:Examinations. Oculi (talk) 13:03, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Convert Category:Contributors to the Oxford English Dictionary to article List of contributors to the Oxford English Dictionary
Nominator's rationale: non-defining characteristic; it's not even mentioned in most of the articles members of this cat. fgnievinski (talk) 12:47, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Did the situation meanwhile change to a sufficient extent? Marcocapelle (talk) 08:20, 8 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Ethiopian songwriters. Consensus is that as named there is little potential for growth, and the name is not accurate as the one entry is a songwriter rather than just a lyricist.
