Propose deleting Category:Recipients of aid from Lewis Tappan (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: Fails WP:NONDEFINING. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:24, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I created this category. Tappan (with his brother) was the leading philanthropist in the United States between 1820 and 1837. He helped a lot of things which are obscure yet well-regarded today. It's useful to see all his many philanthropic activities together. deisenbe (talk) 19:27, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment A list of his major contributions might be more appropriate.★Trekker (talk) 19:33, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Category:Photo sharing to Category:Image hosting

Nominator's rationale: Image sharing is the anchor article. It doesnt appear that there is intended to be a distinction. Rathfelder (talk) 16:33, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support merging the two categories, nearly all articles in both categories are about image sharing websites, so I can well imagine Category:Image sharing websites as an alternative target. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:29, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- That sounds clearer. Lets merge both into Category:Image sharing websites.Rathfelder (talk) 09:43, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support: Image hosting seems to be the slightly broader term. flowing dreams (talk page) 09:57, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, Category:Image hosting has meanwhile been tagged as well, it leads via this discussion back to here. The two nominations should be closed in conjunction. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:33, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Category:Humor websites to Category:Comedy websites

Nominator's rationale: Maybe I'm missing the joke, but I dont see a difference. Rathfelder (talk) 16:26, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merge or reverse merge, based on the articles in both categories I cannot tell the difference either. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:22, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support: They seem to be synonym for the purpose of this context. flowing dreams (talk page) 09:58, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
~~Merge~~ and take care to merge the two Wikidata items https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q8527575 and https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7287978. – Fayenatic London 21:43, 10 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I've put all the articles into subcategories of Comedy websites, so if agreed it should be deleted, not merged. But I dont know how to merge Wikidata items. Rathfelder (talk) 22:56, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Rathfelder: Thanks – In that case, delete. Merging Wikidata is quite easy: in Wikidata, you should see a "More" drop-down menu at the top, which includes "Merge with…". Before using it, you have to delete any clashing items, i.e. in this case just the English Wikipedia link to Category:Humor websites. – Fayenatic London 08:21, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Maximals (Transformers) to Category:Maximals

Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary disambiguation. There is no other category called "Maximals" on Wikipedia. JIP | Talk 12:38, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Template:Korea-museum-stub (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: Template is obsolete and unused, as all Korean museums are either in North or South Korea and as such all the stub articles use either ((SouthKorea-museum-stub)) or ((NorthKorea-museum-stub)) (PS: for those of you querying it, yes, it's a template, but stub templates are dealt with at CFD) Grutness...wha? 10:59, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:Muslim members of the Parliament of the Netherlands (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: POV classification, not based on objective criteria, see Talk page for this category. Minorities observer (talk) 07:58, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support per WP:EGRS, we also do not have a Category:Muslim politicians. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:18, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:Inuit community governments in Quebec (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: Made this category in error when was intending to create Category:Inuit community governments in Newfoundland and Labrador. Hwy43 (talk) 05:28, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Valis series to Category:Valis (video game series)

Nominator's rationale: Per the main article, Valis (video game series). The current title is ambiguous, as there is also Valis (novel series). This is not eligible for speedy as the main article was moved recently without prior discussion. -- Black Falcon ^(talk) 04:19, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Massive support We should move almost every video game category and navbox honestly, almost all of them have the outdated and ambiguous "___ series" scheme.★Trekker (talk) 19:35, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
