Nominator's rationale: Unencyclopedic social networking. We already have the properly named (but IMO still of questionably value) Category:Wikipedians who contribute to the SCP Foundation, and definitely don't need two categories. * Pppery * it has begun... 14:57, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Puerto Rican television presenters

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: option A. (non-admin closure) CLYDE TALK TO ME/STUFF DONE 18:57, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: From the introduction of article Television presenter (redirected from Television host), it seems that these terms are used one for the other. I guess this is an WP:ENGVAR issue. Out of Category:Television presenters by nationality, the majority use presenters but some use hosts, including Category:American television hosts. Puerto Rico seems to be the only place with two concurrent categories. I would bend towards option A per the parent American category, and hosts is an older category where most of the content actually is, which is IMHO that this is a usage compatible with Puerto Rico. Place Clichy (talk) 10:42, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Option A per nom. This is indeed an ENGVAR issue: what much of the world would call a television "presenter", North American English speakers call a television "host", so they're just different words for the same job rather than different things. So there's no pressing need for two separate categories here — and although Puerto Rico isn't a principally English-speaking area, it is a territory of the United States rather than a fully independent country in its own right, and should thus remain in line with the American "hosts". But "presenters" should remain in place as a redirect to catch any future mistakes around this, as the parent Category:American television hosts also already has. Bearcat (talk) 14:05, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Option A per nom and also how Bearcat explained. Keep "presenter" as a redirect... --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 04:19, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

more nominations
Nominator's rationale: Following previous discussions (1 and 2) and the discussion below, here is another set of occupations for which I do not see any obvious merit in ethnic-based categorization, per WP:EGRS/I. @LaundryPizza03, Qwerfjkl, Marcocapelle, RevelationDirect, and William Allen Simpson: pinging participants to previous discussion.

@Place Clichy no need to ping me in any of these, I just closed the discussion. Qwerfjkltalk 09:45, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support per WP:OCEGRS. Some are also WP:NARROWCAT by nature of being a triple intersection (Tamils + Sri Lankans + occupation). –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:15, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
