The result of the discussion was: merge first, delete the others. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 10:52, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge/delete per WP:SMALLCAT, this is a tree of 12 categories which all together contain just one article. In addition it is anachronistic, Valencian Community is a modern subdivision of Spain. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:27, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Children's rights bodies

The result of the discussion was: no consensus to merge. I think renaming the category is advisable; however, there was no discussion of User:BrownHairedGirl's suggestion of renaming to Category:Children's rights authorities, so any name change would have to be handled via another discussion. -- Black Falcon (talk) 18:16, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Substantial and unhelpful overlap Rathfelder (talk) 20:01, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Marcocapelle: Several articles in this cat are either not ombudsmen at all, or have much wider responsibilities than "ombudsmen" implies.
not ombudsmen: Committee on the Rights of the Child, Child Rights Taskforce – Australia, Snohomish County Children's Commission, Odisha State Child Protection Society
wider responsibilities: Commissioner for Children and Young People, Northern Ireland, Children's Commissioner for Wales, Children's Commissioner for England

The result of the discussion was: delete and salt. – Fayenatic London 12:31, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Propose deleting and salting:
Propose salting:
Nominator's rationale: these categories were deleted at WP:CfD 2010 March 7, after a very long series of CfDs in which it was repeatedly agreed that centuries are a spectacularly useless way of dividing sportspeople.
en.wp's articles on sportspeople overwhelmingly relate to people active in the 20th and 21st centuries. It's hard to think of a more useless way of splitting this set than by a single timepoint which creates significant overlap.
By-century categories seem to be a magnet for some editors, so I propose WP:SALT these categories to prevent re-creation. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:12, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Does it make sense to discuss Category:20th-century Barbadian sportspeople without Category:20th-century Barbadian people by occupation? Don't mind if they both goIcarusgeek (talk) 15:53, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
