Category:Tesla (band) members

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) Marcocapelle (talk) 20:21, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Speedy deletion declined on account of supposedly being populated. The trouble is, all the links in this category have been redirected to the band article, so in fact this category doesn't contain a single article. Richard3120 (talk) 11:55, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Liz: you're right, categories often do contain redirects in among the articles. But when everything is a redirect, I question the point of having a category. I mean, you won't even bring this category up unless you search for it manually knowing its name, so it doesn't seem useful for the average reader because they won't know it exists if they just casually browse the band's related articles.

The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure) ―Qwerfjkltalk 14:36, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename and purge, this is just a standard eponymous category. Move (most of) the biographies to the parent category per WP:OCASSOC but keep the subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:47, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, Marcocapelle, I'm not sure that's exactly what this is. See Category:Han dynasty people related to the Three Kingdoms, this should probably be bundled nom is desired. And frankly, I think "and associates" is clearer then having just the name, though it's not immediately clear what the distinction between this one and Category:Officials under Cao Cao is. Aza24 (talk) 15:56, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Some of Cao Cao's associates were not officials (as in governing in central or regional governmental entities) - some are military only, and some were simply civilians. --Nlu (talk) 03:52, 10 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Lightly populated LDS Church temple categories

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 (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 20:34, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Each of these contains two articles. Presently, temples are reasonably rare things in the LDS Church, so there is no prospect of populating these any time soon. I suggest upmerging. (We could probably also upmerge Category:Temples in Ecuador to Category:Religious buildings and structures in Ecuador.) Good Ol’factory (talk) 03:05, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
