Nominator's rationale: Although I think the "citation needed" tag is vastly overused, the term "narcissism" should be applied carefully, and never without a citation. Many people confuse narcissism, a serious personality disorder, with vanity, a mere character trait. Narcissism has to be diagnosed by an expert. On top of that, another user already felt the category was underpopulated, so renaming it into "songs about vanity" would hardly be worth the trouble.

Nominator's rationale: There are only two articles in this franchise which are both linked to each other, making this category now unnecessary. KirtZJ (talk) 12:21, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete better not to have, linking was required and it was done. Hajme 17:02, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Moveable holidays (manual dates for 2014)

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. This is the only way I can read consensus from the discussion. Nobody seems to oppose it, and, indeed, if the category is kept, permanent maintenance would be needed, and nobody volunteered.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:33, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Purge, because there are quite a number of holidays in this category that are fixed according to a non-Gregorian calendar (e.g. Hindu calendar). Also e.g. Advent is in it (which ought to be in the Christmas-date based holidays). It is not possible to purge the category manually, this may have something to do with the template, I don't know.
Rename because 2014 is outdated by now. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:28, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not surprisingly, being the nominator, I'd say:
- Accurate: not so much (all fixed holidays according to a non-Gregorian calendar should be excluded).
- Defining: only insofar accurate (e.g. Advent and Good Friday).
- Already also in the rival tree: highly likely insofar accurate (e.g. Advent and Good Friday).
Honestly, I wouldn't even oppose deleting this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:08, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note I created deletion proposals for additional categories involving holidays. Your thoughts (pro/con/other) are encouraged at the nomination. RevelationDirect (talk) 01:17, 24 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment -- Since most of the world uses the Gregorian calendar, feasts that are not on a fixed date or a fixed day of a certain month, should be regarded as moveable feasts. Advent is fixed as the fourth Sunday before 25 December. Thanksgiving likewise. UK bank holidays are the first of last Monday in certain months. Easter, on the other hand is detrermined from a lunar calendar, that has diverged from the related Jewish calendar: it was once the Sunday after the Jewish passover Sabbath. Ramadan seems to move around the year, sometimes coming in high summer, sometimes in the depths of winter, presumably because the Islamic year does not match the actual year of about 365.25 days; it is certainly moveable. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:35, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would rather take the category from the perspective of the religion/culture of the feast, so if it's a Hindu feast it's on a fixed date on the Hindu calendar, not so much on a movable date on the Gregorian calendar. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:07, 27 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: I don't believe this really is a "type" of film, in the way other the categories are, and I don't believe it's sufficiently defining for categorization purposes. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:21, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
