  • Propose re-naming
Category:Ahern family to Category:Ahern (political family)
Category:Andrews family to Category:Andrews (political family)
Category:Blaney family to Category:Blaney (political family)
Category:Boland family to Category:Boland (political family)
feel free to add each family from Category:Political families of Ireland
Nominator's rationale: To distinguish them from ordinary families and surname type categories. Laurel Lodged (talk) 21:04, 21 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
No evidence? Cast the net a little bit wider to find plenty of pickings. For example, Category:Guinness family, most of whom have nothing to do with RoI politics; Category:Naughten family, most of whom have nothing to do with Naughton; Category:Kenny family, most of whom have nothing to do with Kenny etc. Laurel Lodged (talk) 19:24, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
They are involved here. For example, it's concievable that you would have a cat for Category:Guinness (political family) and another for the the famous brewing family Category:Guinness (brewing family) with still another Category:Guinness (surname) for the remainer non-notables. To have Category:Guinness family as the only entrant for the parent category Category:Political families of Ireland is, in this case, highly misleading.

No, those categories you mention are not in this nomination, so they are not involved in this nomination. I see no evidence we need to disambiguate these specific familes. The fact that some entries in a category need to be disambiguated does not mean we have to disambiguate all of them.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:14, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge per WP:SMALLCAT. Only one member page; I found one other eligible page but cannot justify keeping this category. – Fayenatic London 13:30, 21 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose merging Category:Hot cocoa to Category:Chocolate beverages
Nominator's rationale: unnecessary splitting, and besides, many of these drinks are also taken cold. Mercurywoodrose (talk) 04:08, 21 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Reverse merge "Presidencies of X". Essentially as diffusion to the subcat. - jc37 21:48, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Completely redundant. What's the inherent difference between the presidencies of Theodore Roosevelt and James K. Polk? Nevertheless, Presidency of Theodore Roosevelt is in Presidencies of the United States, while Category:Presidency of James K. Polk is in United States presidential administrations. Presidencies is currently the parent for administrations, so normally I'd propose upmerging administrations into presidencies, but the "administrations" name is better ("presidencies", plural, is something more appropriate for things like the Bombay Presidency), so a downmerge seems more appropriate here. Nevertheless, I'm open to upmerging: the important thing is that this redundancy be removed. Nyttend (talk) 03:36, 8 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
