- Delete per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:35, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. This appears to be part of some obsolete tracking exercise. – Fayenatic London 19:34, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Gonnym: there are siblings for C19, 20, 21. Category:19th-century French politicians subcats holds Category:People of the Paris Commune which is not in Category:19th-century French politicians, but the latter was intentional on the part of Asilvering, see [1]. The C19, 20 & 21 siblings can all just be deleted, so you may want to append them to this nom. – Fayenatic London 19:34, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- My bad, I used hotcat for that edit and I guess it doesn't show hidden categories. I've removed it from the hidden cat now, so it's irrelevant to this discussion. -- asilvering (talk) 20:32, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- The result of the discussion was: keep and no consensus to rename. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 01:45, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Nominator's rationale: As far as I know, "villain" is usually used in a literary context. We typically use "evil" to describe malevolent gods and there is already such a category called Category:Evil deities, making this redundant and pointless. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:06, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose. This category is not restricted to gods or goddesses. This is supposed to be a counterpart to Category:Heroes in mythology and legend, and just as there are plenty of folklore heroes, there are folklore villains too. AHI-3000 (talk) 07:25, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep (oppose), as the old saying goes, not all mythological villains are evil gods but all mythological evil gods are villains. In other words, villains and gods do not necessarily travel in the same boat (Much ado about godding?). Randy Kryn (talk) 11:27, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and rename Category:Villains in folklore – There is room for expansion with characters from myths and folktales, e.g. Sheriff of Nottingham, that may or may not be in other villain categories. We use folklore as a broader term that also encompasses mythology and legends. MClay1 (talk) 04:53, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Thoughts on renaming? (I am currently seeing consensus that the category should exist, but that can of course change.)

- @MClay1: I wouldn't mind having a Category:Villains in folklore and moving villains in legends to it. But I disagree with moving evil deities and demons to it, that is really something different. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:53, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Surely all evil gods are villains within the myths they featured in? MClay1 (talk) 10:50, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Surely there are plenty of examples that could populate this category that are not evil deities. Looking only at Classical mythology, Antinous of Ithaca is a clear case, and the Odyssey alone offers plenty of other contenders. But there's a different problem, in that "villain" is a vague attribute that can vary depending on the story being told. Calypso (mythology) and Circe are villains in the context of the Odyssey, but does that warrant categorizing them as such? What about the figures from the Iliad, where there's no telling who's the hero and who's the villain? The concept falls apart when applied broadly, so unless the scope can be made clear-cut somehow this doesn't seem like a category that can practically be maintained. --Paul_012 (talk) 06:16, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- There are plenty of stories without villains. I don't think that means we can't classify the more clear-cut examples. MClay1 (talk) 09:15, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- The result of the discussion was: no consensus. on the musicians category; but merge the harpists category as originally nominated. HouseBlaster (talk · he/they) 01:50, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Nominator's rationale: Only nationality category in Category:Blind musicians. Seems like an unnecessary intersection between nationality, musicians, and disability. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:42, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I will note that item 2 in the proposal is to merge the harpists category into the musicians category, but item 1 is to merge the musicians category elsewhere.
