- Propose merging Category:12th-century Algerian poets to Category:12th-century poets

- The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:04, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
- Propose deleting Category:Fictional religious places ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Nominator's rationale: Only one article in here and it's already better categorized elsewhere. It is unlikely to be filled with enough articles to justify a category (and flooding it with redirects would be bad form and duplicate the organization at Category:Church buildings in fiction). Jontesta (talk) 18:19, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support in principle but then add article Water Temple (Ocarina of Time) to Category:Fiction about religion. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:48, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Only 1 entry. Also merge with Category:Ambassadors to Czechoslovakia LibStar (talk) 17:27, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Merge only to Category:Ambassadors to Czechoslovakia, the article is already in several subcategories of Category:Ambassadors of Costa Rica. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:50, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

- Dual merge, also to Category:Syrian feminists. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:52, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:Fiction about monsters to Category:Monsters in popular culture
- Nominator's rationale: rename similar to other subcategories in Category:Legendary creatures in popular culture. Also: remove Category:speculative fiction by topic as a parent category. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:34, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support renaming for consistency with related categories AHI-3000 (talk) 23:25, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete/Merge - the term monster is a subjective term, and duplicative of just saying "feared legendary creature". Any general "monsters" cats should be renamed or merged to the corresponding "legendary creatures" tree. - jc37 21:28, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- Rename In many media, there are species which are simply called monsters. Like the monsters in Monsters, Inc.. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 17:12, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

- Propose deleting Category:2080s in film (1 C)
- Propose deleting Category:2090s in film (1 C)
- Nominator's rationale: delete, redundant category layer with only one subcategory each. No need to merge somewhere, the content is already part of e.g. Category:Fiction set in the 2030s. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:19, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Until some film release dates are scheduled for the 2030s, these categories are useless beyond the setting categories. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 05:06, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Writing systems introduced in the 15th century (3 P) to Category:Writing systems introduced in the 2nd millennium and Category:15th-century introductions
- Nominator's rationale: merge, poorly populated categories, this way it is not helpful for navigation. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:32, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Merge Not many writing systems exist. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 05:06, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:Schwartz family (television) to Category:Schwartz family (journalism)
- Nominator's rationale: Similar to Category:Roberts family (journalism) and Category:Dacre family (journalism), this category is all journalists and can be more specific. Mike Selinker (talk) 06:12, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:Pyne banking family to Category:Pyne family (banking)
- Nominator's rationale: To match Category:Stern family (banking) and Category:Mack family (banking). (Not quite enough to make this Speedy.) Mike Selinker (talk) 06:08, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:Jacobs family (telecom) to Category:Jacobs family (telecommunications)

- Propose merging Category: Audiovisual introductions in 1746 to Category:1746 introductions
- Propose merging Category: Audiovisual introductions in 1790 to Category:1790 introductions
- Nominator's rationale: merge, isolated single-article categories, unhelpful for navigation. A second merge target isn't really necessary, two articles are already in Category:Precursors of film and for the other articles it is quite a stretch to say that they are about audiovisual technology.

Category:17th-century Lithuanian philosophers

- The result of the discussion was: merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:08, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Isolated category. Upmerge for now. SMasonGarrison 21:28, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support in principle but considering his works the subject of the article rather belongs in Category:Lithuanian theologians and, indeed, in Category:17th-century Lithuanian writers. Marcocapelle (talk) 03:59, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, The Bushranger One ping only 02:22, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- In fact the article fits all three: Category:Lithuanian philosophers and Category:17th-century Lithuanian writers and Category:Lithuanian theologians. I boldly added the article to the latter so that the dual merge can go ahead as nominated. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:16, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Rename. – Fayenatic London 21:01, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: The living parameter of {{WikiProject Biography}} has been merged with the blp parameter in {{WikiProject banner shell}}, so the title of this category is no longer accurate. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 23:11, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, The Bushranger One ping only 02:22, 26 December 2024 (UTC)- Rename per nom. Do not capitalize because the actual parameter name is all lowercase. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 05:10, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- Rename/merge as per nom, as it makes more sense to align with the parameter name. -Kj cheetham (talk) 12:55, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. Harryboyles 06:22, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

- 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: Rename. – Fayenatic London 20:59, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Mata'utia family (rugby) to Category:Mata'utia family
- Nominator's rationale: All Mata'utia people with articles are in this category, so I don't think we need a disambiguator. If we do, it should be Category:Mata'utia family (rugby league) because it's a subcategory of Category:Rugby league families. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:14, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Rename Disambiguation without a base title. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 05:09, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Rename to Category:Child family (banking). – Fayenatic London 20:57, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Child family (English bankers) to Category:Child family (banking)
- Nominator's rationale: There's no other Child family in the banking business, so I think we should match all the other subcategories of category:Banking families that need disambiguators. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:10, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- The above is preserved as an archive of the discussion. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

- Propose renaming Category:Easmon family (Sierra Leone) to Category:Easmon family

- The result of the discussion was: rename. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:08, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Chandler family (newspaper publishers) to Category:Chandler family (publishing)
- Nominator's rationale: There are no other Chandler family categories, so this could just be Category:Chandler family. But if it needs a disambiguator then it should be "publishing" to match this nomination. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:04, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Pulitzer family. – Fayenatic London 20:39, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Pulitzer family (newspapers) to Category:Pulitzer family
- Nominator's rationale: There aren't any other Pulitzer family categories. Alternatively, we can rename to Category:Pulitzer family (publishing) per this discussion, but there doesn't seem to be much need for disambiguation here. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:00, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Rename to Category:Pulitzer family as disambiguation without a base title. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 05:08, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
