Nominator's rationale: Redundant category layer. The parent only contains this category and an "attacks" category. –Aidan721 (talk) 22:26, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as unnecessary levels. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 23:08, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
keep as is Nomination is only discussing one of its two parents and in up-merge cases all parents must be considered. The other parent is "Commercial buildings in Africa by country" where is this is a perfectly legitimate and helpful subcat. The same is true of the other continents.

Nominator's rationale: This category appears to be a duplicate the Neoclassical architecture category. German and other central and eastern European languages distinguish between the local de:Klassizismus of the 18th and early 19th centuries and the de:Neoklassizismus of the 20th century, but English language sources don't make the distinction so en Wikipedia's categories shouldn't try to do so either.

The result of the discussion was: delete. Beland (talk) 02:43, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is a category is almost decades old; and to me, it honestly looks like a total mess of different things after looking at it after a while. First of all this category's title is "Video game control methods" however most all of these articles are not necessarily "methods" such as free look; that is a game design element and therefore should be moved into the terminology category. Tank controls or 6DOF is not a "method" either.
Also, this category contains a bunch of random things related computer mice and keyboards; generic devices used to play almost every PC game in existence. It also contains a bunch of random things relate to some computer-brain interaction that's not relevant. With everything moved into approriate categories when (such as the terms one) RedOctane X-Plorer Controller, SpaceOrb 360 should be moved to Category:Game controllers.

Nominator's rationale: Not useful for navigation through at least the end of the 18th century. Merge up to the century level. The articles are all already in "YYYY establishments" categories. WP:NARROW/WP:OCYEAR. –Aidan721 (talk) 02:05, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 17:49, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I don't see the use of articles being diffused to this category. Only 2 articles in here. These are just spaces commonly found at malls. –Aidan721 (talk) 01:26, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merege and purge. Beland (talk) 02:37, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The Amusement arcade article says that video arcades is just another name from them; not a distinct type of arcade? Also the main article amusement arcade was previously moved from video arcade. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 00:32, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
