- Propose deleting Category:People from Kasina Wielka ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Propose deleting Category:People from Kasina Wielka ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:SMALLCAT and a category for such a small village as Kasina Wielka is too much detail (no need to merge, the one person in the category is already in the county parent category). Marcocapelle (talk) 16:31, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:People from Limanowa County Small community with not enough entries. Since the one person was in the County category, I removed it as overcategorized....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 18:18, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Either way, it has the same end result. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:27, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

- Propose deleting Category:Areas of traditional spread of Ukrainians and Ukrainian language
- Propose deleting Category:Ukrainian-speaking countries and territories ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Nominator's rationale: delete, this is not a defining characteristic, e.g. Poland and Kazakhstan aren't primarily known as Ukrainian-speaking countries. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:04, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete - nonsense category.GreyShark (dibra) 15:16, 7 April 2017 (UTC)
- Delete for Category:Ukrainian-speaking countries and territories, with the exception of Ukraine (surprise!) none of the other articles included are known for this. Not sure how I feel about the second category nominated though, my vote for now applies for the first one. Inter&anthro (talk) 14:06, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

- Category:Bookstores established in 1982 to Category:Retail companies established in 1982
- Category:Bookstores established in 2015 to Category:Retail companies established in 2015
- Nominator's rationale: All categories with 3 or less entries. Needless overcategorization. If these categories are merged, then Category:Bookstores established in the 20th century and Category:Bookstores established in the 21st century categories should be deleted as they are empty....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:51, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Upmerge to all parents including Category:Bookstores established in the 20th century or Category:Bookstores established in the 21st century as appropriate. Oculi (talk) 18:54, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Fell the whole tree (by upmerging to retailers) -- The whole bookstores tree contains 16 articles and does not need to be split by date. We should also delete 20th and 21st century and 2nd millennium parents. Peterkingiron (talk) 21:56, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
- Upmerge as nominated, fell the whole tree per nominator and Peterkingiron. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:30, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

- Propose deleting Category:Things named after Donald Trump ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Nominator's rationale: Indiscriminate category, not useful for it is a category of miscellaneous articles. There are no other categories beginning with "Things...". - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 05:25, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete; WP:OCAT by shared name. Bearcat (talk) 03:49, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
- Delete as a blatant case of WP:SHAREDNAME. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:13, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

- Propose deleting Category:White Left (South Africa) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Propose deleting Category:White Left (South Africa) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Nominator's rationale: Inappropriate intersection of race, nationality and political opinions. TM 02:30, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Restructure to Category:White South African anti-apartheid activists, which is a notable intersection. How left wing they were on other political issues is not necessarily material. (Note we have often deleted "conservatives", "liberals", "progressives", etc, except where the criterion is membership of a political party). Peterkingiron (talk) 22:00, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
- Keep But possibly rename. A notable topic in South Africa. AusLondonder (talk) 15:15, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
- Keep But could rename as suggested above. A notable topic in South African history and society. Hmains (talk) 03:19, 7 April 2017 (UTC)
- Rename per Peterkingiron. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:48, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
- Rename - per above, although I'm not sure if Peterkingiron's suggestion is the best possibility, the current category name is too vague. Inter&anthro (talk) 14:02, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
- I am comfortable supporting renaming the category to Category:White South African anti-apartheid activists.--TM 22:37, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
