Category:Gong players

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: delete. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 19:33, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Way too specific of a category; one who's members all fit Category:Percussionists already. No one in the world classifies themselves as a "gong player". Why? I Ask (talk) 20:59, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have never seen a güirero playing tambora or congas. --Opus88888 (talk) 17:52, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Half the people in the category are known best for playing congas. Why? I Ask (talk) 13:34, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:End of World Music

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: delete. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 19:33, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: "End of World Music" is not a widely recognized music genre and the term does not appear in the articles for the artists in this category. The common element of these artists is that most (not all, see Raven Chacon) are signed to the Stone Tapes label or its parent label Joyful Noise Recordings. Alternatives to deletion would be to create Category:Stone Tapes artists and selectively add artists there or delete and use only Category:Joyful Noise Recordings artists where it's relevant.

Category:Madura

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/rename. Merge first two as per nom, and rename Category:Persepam to Category:Persepam Madura Utama (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 19:37, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: What is this category for??? Madura is an island, not any other administrative division (not a province or otherwise). We already have Category:Madura Island, so this category is not needed as far as I can tell and can be redirected, just like at Commons. P 1 9 9  ✉ 14:54, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not opposed to reverse merging, if that makes the most sense. But if there is no strong reason for it, then it will be better that the categories match the article naming conventions. -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 15:11, 16 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Nominator's rationale: delete, trivial intersection between a period in history and the fact that these countries no longer exist. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:00, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: countries don't belong to wars, so this doesn't make sense. Jontesta (talk) 15:05, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 19:42, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Only contains two articles. If not merged, the first one should be renamed to Seljuk people stubs (or perhaps Seljuk Empire people stubs), following the pattern for former countries in [1]. – Fayenatic London 11:18, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: upmerge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. Note: the first target has been nominated for renaming to Category:Jews from the Ottoman Empire. Marcocapelle (talk) 02:19, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
