Nominator's rationale: The category only contains 1 item, and the categories for New York City and State both exist already. Lewcm Talk to me! 23:38, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support in principle. Can we turn it into a disambiguation category (or whatever it's called)? Or would that just perpetuate the problem by providing a third category? Mason (talk) 23:50, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, HouseBlastertalk 22:33, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My gut feeling is that most of the characters cats will themselves eventually be deleted (because most of it is, yet again, in-universe junk) whereas the 40k cat might stick around (and it it doesn't, the new correct parent wpuld be category:Games Workshop).

Category:Films shot in Apta railway station

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. No opposition after 2.5 weeks; WP:REFUND applies. (non-admin closure) HouseBlastertalk 21:53, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization by venue. We can categorize films by the geographic locations (province, state, city, town, etc.) where they were filmed, if numbers warrant, but we don't ordinarily categorize films by specific building that might have been used as a set -- and it's not at all clear that Apta railway station would have enough special significance to warrant unique treatment that most other buildings aren't getting.

Category:Tift College alumni

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 with no prejudice against recreation if the category can be appropriately populated. (non-admin closure) HouseBlastertalk 00:37, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Single-entry category for just one alumna of a defunct college. As always, every educational institution that exists does not automatically get one of these the moment one former student has an article to file in it -- there would need to be at least five people to file here before a category for them was warranted, but a scan of the college's what-links-here failed to turn up four other alumni. Bearcat (talk) 17:45, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Alternative. How about we broaden the scope of the category to Category:Tift College Mason (talk) 17:49, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There would still have to be at least five articles to file in that — but none of them could be people, because if the college doesn't have dedicated "Alumni of" and "Academic staff of" subcategories then the alumni and academic staff do not go directly into "College" as a substitute for alumni or academic staff subcategories either. So the college would have to have at least five articles about inanimate things associated with it to justify an eponymous category for the college itself, and there would still have to be at least five alumni before they got any Tift-related categorization at all. Bearcat (talk) 17:56, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Good point. Support per nom. Perhaps eventually there will be enough to support a category, but it seems like not yet. Thanks for explaining it :) Mason (talk) 23:53, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
