Nominator's rationale: 2x upmerge mostly per discussion on JPL's talk page [1]. There's only one person in each of these. Unlike the discussion, I think that these should be merged to Ambassadors of FOO to Germany. Mason (talk) 21:36, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This category is not helpful for navigation, nor are these really defining. They're all related to participant selection, but... that's not something really unique to "surveys". This are just general sampling methods (or issues related to sampling).

The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 21:28, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This category only as a single redirect. It is not helpful for navigation. I urge the category creator to stop mass creating categories without populating them. There's no need for this category, or many of the recently created ones Mason (talk) 17:19, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. Liz Read! Talk! 22:26, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Wrong category and it is clear that the creator does not understand how category works. ときさき くるみ not because they are easy, but because they are hard 16:52, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support. I removed the only category in it, which was Category:Cultural nationalism. Mason (talk) 17:24, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Wrong category and it is clear that the creator does not understand how category works. ときさき くるみ not because they are easy, but because they are hard 16:52, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support. This category isn't helpful for navigation. In the future, can the nominator bundle this kinds of category nomination? Mason (talk) 17:22, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Smasongarrison: Of course, it's just because that Twinkle doesn't come with bundles and you can help me bundle them. ときさき くるみ not because they are easy, but because they are hard 18:44, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Tokisaki Kurumi, I don't really understand your deletion rationale. "Wrong category" doesn't really explain what is wrong about this category and neither does your claim that the category creator doesn't understand categories explain why this one should be deleted. Luckily, the editors who frequent CFD can fill in the blanks just by looking at the category but you really should have a policy-based deletion rationale if you are going to nominate more pages for deletion discussions and this nomination isn't based on a specific policy guiding category usage. Liz Read! Talk! 20:41, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Liz: By "wrong category", I mean, 1. wrong parent category (until now, the parent category of this category still contains categories like Zionism, Bundism, Three Principles of the People, American exceptionalism, American nationalism) 2. wrong subcategory (initially, this category contained only two subcategories and no articles). In addition, it is clear that the creator still do not quite understand how to work over category until now (Special:Diff/1243506564/prev). It's true that I'm not familiar with CFD, but it's also true that I don't know what policy should be used for a Wikipedia:PAGECAT level error. ときさき くるみ not because they are easy, but because they are hard 17:39, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Typically, the solution to bad cat problems is to edit the categories, not nominate the category for deletion. Mason (talk) 03:32, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. The only article is in Category:Sportspeople from Baton Rouge, Louisiana so I think it is unnecessary to place them in Category:Sportspeople from Louisiana. Liz Read! Talk! 22:22, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. I didn't Merge because the only article is already in Category:Sportspeople from Wilmington, Delaware so putting them in Category:Sportspeople from Delaware is unnecessary. Liz Read! Talk! 22:19, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge to Sportspeople from Delaware with no objection to recreation. Only one notable person grew up in Delaware. Omnis Scientia (talk) 12:36, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge, these are single-article isolated categories, this is not helpful for navigation. Most categories require only one merge target, namely in case the article is already part of the lighthouses century category. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:49, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
