• Propose deleting Category:Aviation accidents and incidents by aircraft manufacturer ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: It only covers 3 irrelevant manufacturers. It should either be expanded (Greatly) or deleted. . Lovetheblahaj (talk) 23:56, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nominator. Lost in Quebec (talk) 12:58, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, we already have Category:Aviation accidents and incidents by aircraft. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:06, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose merging Category:People from the Almoravid Empire to Category:People under the Almoravid dynasty

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. ^SMason_Garrison 22:36, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose deleting Category:Films about narcissists ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

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. Bearcat (talk) 22:18, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• The article could be moved to existing Category:Films about narcissism. Gjs238 (talk) 14:11, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  I agree in theory, but that category isn’t much better. I looked at two articles at random – one didn’t mention narcissism at all; the other just mentioned one critic who had used the word. --Northernhenge (talk) 21:59, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Narcissism is not a defining characteristic of the article. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:34, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose deleting Category:Men casting directors ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

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.

• Propose deleting Category:9th-century BC people by religion ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

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]

• Propose deleting Category:Former forts ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: This is an underpopulated category that, if populated (after a lot of work), would be huge and unwieldy, even if the (in fact ambiguous) qualifier "completely demolished" is kept. I suggest populating "Military installations closed in [year or appropriate time frame]" as sufficient, or an alternative, as the case may be. btw I think the subcategory "Former star forts" is distinctive enough for keeping, though each should be cross-categorized in "Military installations closed in [year or appropriate time frame]".

• Propose merging Category:Kozhikode east ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) to Category:Suburbs of Kozhikode
• Propose merging Category:Kozhikode north ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) to Category:Suburbs of Kozhikode
• Propose merging Category:Kozhikode south ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) to Category:Suburbs of Kozhikode

Nominator's rationale: Likely made-up arbitrary divisions; contents are mostly suburbs, but there are a few universities and colleges interspersed. They are miscapitalized, and I've nominated the associated articles Kozhikode East, Kozhikode North, and Kozhikode South for deletion. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:12, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose merging Category:Historians by nationality and populated place to Category:Historians by populated place

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's only one country in here ^SMason_Garrison 02:58, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge I'd suggest merging the subcategory as well, as it contains only two subcategories. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:39, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge per nom. I'd suggest to merge everything in this tree per WP:OCLOCATION. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:49, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge per nom. Agree in sentiment with Marcocapelle but let's do that in a separate discussion. –Aidan721 (talk) 14:21, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose splitting Category:Publishers from Brooklyn to Category:American publishers (people) and Category:Mass media people from Brooklyn

Nominator's rationale: We really don't need to diffuse publishers by populated place. We don't even diffuse by state. ^SMason_Garrison 02:45, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose. We should diffuse publishers by city because many citation formats actually require the location of a publisher as a reference citation practice. It makes sense to categorize them by location.4meter4 (talk) 02:48, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• This has nothing to do with categories, has it? Marcocapelle (talk) 06:55, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Dual merge, it might make sense to categorize publishers by place of work, but not by place of birth as is currently the case. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:55, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose renaming Category:F0 and F1 tornadoes to Category:F0, F1, EF0, EF1, IF0, and IF1 tornadoes

Nominator's rationale: Per CFD nominations for the sibling categories. Possibly also split to levels 0 and 1. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 02:09, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That name is too long, in my opinion; six different entries? Wouldn't it be more feasible to just call it F0 and F1-equivalent tornadoes to avoid having six different list entries as a category name? Departure– (talk) 18:13, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• This discussion should be closed in accordance with the outcome of the other discussions. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:56, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment wouldn't it be easier to call it Category:Sub-EF2 and sub-F2 tornadoes ? -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 03:13, 22 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
