Nominator's rationale: Shall I quote 60s Dylan? "I don't write protest songs, I write love songs" Then we have the philosophical question, "what is love?" Should the category include patriotic songs, love of animals, love of cars, love of humanity. Actually it would be better to have an empty category for "songs not above love." In other words, this category serves no purpose, and that's without mentioning that most of these articles don't claim the song is about love. Richhoncho (talk) 09:23, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Granted, the category will be a large one, however, it is a worthy one. Love songs are the highest form of music, other than hymns and other sacred songs, and therefore the topic merits a category of its own. However, for it to be of value the inclusion of songs should not be broadly construed and strictly limited to romantic themes. For example, if a song such as I Love My Dog is added, it should be removed. Perhaps renaming the category "Love songs" would be helpful to this end. - JGabbard (talk) 03:53, 11 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: There doesn't seem to be a parallel tree for government officials in the same way there is Category:Politicians convicted of corruption. There is a more general Category:Government officials convicted of crimes. I suggest this would be a better name for this category. Tim! (talk) 08:49, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Years in politics

The result of the discussion was: delete. For the record, the state (dis)establishment sub-categories were removed from these by changing a template.[1] Likewise, lists of state leaders were included via Template:SLBY/box. – Fayenatic London 11:14, 10 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose merging Category:7th century in politics to Category:7th century becomes almost empty after the above deletions
Nominator's rationale: delete. Up to the year 1000, this tree doesn't add anything because the vast amount of the categories serve as a container category for subcats that are already contained in the Establishments and Disestablishments category of that year. In a few exceptions there is an article directly in the Politics category, we don't have to merge this to a year category however because these articles are already in a year by continent category.

Nominator's rationale: Eponymous category for a person without the volume of spinoff content needed to warrant one; all that's here is the eponym, one relative and one article about a political family he was connected to. As always, it takes a significant amount of related content to justify one of these, not just two connected articles. Bearcat (talk) 03:01, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Propose renaming Category:Mayors of Kalyan-Dombivali Municipal Corporation to Category:Mayors of Kalyan-Dombivali
Nominator's rationale: While mayors certainly sit on city governments, their title is "Mayor of City", not "Mayor of Complete Name of the City's Governing Body". (That is, a person is Mayor of Toronto, not Mayor of Toronto City Council; Mayor of London, not Mayor of the London Assembly; and on and so forth.) Bearcat (talk) 00:55, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
