Nominator's rationale: Merge. most of the categories' works aren't really about robotics but just robots (see its subcategories). Having it named "Robots in fiction" covers both robotics and robots in fiction (alternatively the latter could be renamed to "Robots and robotics in fiction" but I don't think that's necessary).

  • Propose Deletion Category:Employees of the New Mexico Legislature
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT and WP:NONDEFINING. Technically all State Representatives and Senators would receive paychecks from the legislature but, based on the earlier nomination of Category:Employees of the Alabama Legislature, this category is intended for unelected staffers. The only article in the category is Shirley Hooper who was a clerk for the state legislature after college but is notable for being elected 25 years later as secretary of state. 1 unsourced sentence in 1 article seems like a tenuous basis for a category.
