Nominator's rationale: The merge target is much older and was empted out of process by the category creator. This category should be merged and then older category renamed. SMasonGarrison 22:36, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 06:03, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: "Films about X" category, newly created for just one film without a clear indication that many others could be added to it. The problem is that there isn't a clear-cut definition of when somebody has objectively crossed the line from self-confidence into narcissism, so there isn't a clear and objective metric as to whether any given film is "about" a narcissist or not -- so inclusion here would come down to personal opinions rather than defining or objective analysis.

Category:Men casting directors

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. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 06:04, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary gendered category. As usual, categories for women in an occupation do not always have to be balanced off with a matching category for men -- there are some cases (e.g. actors, sportspeople) where categories for men and women should both exist as gender has a direct relationship to the topic, but there are other cases where a category for women should exist while a category for men should not, because women represent a minority in a male-dominated occupation. In 2025, certainly there are a lot of women working as casting directors -- but historically, casting directors were almost exclusively men until women working became a social norm. So a category for male casting directors is not needed, because men represent the majority of our articles about casting directors, and are not a topic where anybody needs special help finding the men in anything like the same way women are.

Nominator's rationale: Redundant category layer. The lone subcategory is already in Category:9th-century BC people by nationality and Category:9th-century BCE Judaism so no merging is necessary. –Aidan721 (talk) 20:24, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: The category should perhaps have been named Secondary schools in Zhuhai. However, Category:Secondary schools in China is not split directly by city.
