The result of the discussion was: rename (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 18:55, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Boven-Digoel has been moved by WP:RM. However, rather than a speedy move to that name, I suggest also changing "internees" to "detainees" as that is the word used in the main article. "Detainees" is also used for at least 3 categories within Category:Prisoners and detainees by prison (Guantanamo, Kandahar, Bagram). – Fayenatic London 22:05, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Alt-right musicians

[edit]
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 (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 19:02, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This appears to be a trivial intersection and non-defining characteristic of musicians, as well as subjective, not a trait that is commonly and consistently bestowed upon the ostensible members by reliable sources. As far as I know we generally don't categorize Musicians by political ideology. We have the reasonably broad category Political music groups, but don't have categories for conservative musicians, liberal musicians, Neo-nazi musicians, Marxist musicians, etc. (Progressive musicians by genre is about progressive music, not progressivism). "Alt-right" itself is an ill-defined, loose term thrown around with uneven frequency. So even though there are pop-culture fluff articles like "There’s an alt-right version of everything", the subjectivity of the term "alt-right" is another issue hindering categorization (Taylor Swift?). While there are verifiably musicians who have a variety of political views, the intersection of ideology and this occupation is rarely a defining characteristic of people, especially when categorizing living people. --Animalparty!

Nominator's rationale: Rename as a category to contain the list articles. The sub-cats should be moved up into the parent. – Fayenatic London 21:53, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary eponymous parent when there's already a "works by" category and no other significant content to add. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 15:25, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
КиноФан2021's Answer: Alan Menken's also only has "works by", but his category is not nominated for removal. КиноФан2021Talk to me 12:50, 4 August 2021
"Other stuff exists" is not a valid reason (in this context) for keeping the category. By all means, nominate that category if you feel it should also be deleted. Sean Stephens (talk) 23:58, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Very few Mega-Earths are known, and the category is also defined in the negative for habitability. Both members are already in the sole parent, Category:Mega-Earths. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:28, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep since splitting may become justifiable in the future due to the creation of articles on non-habitable mega-Earths. Jtadesse (talk) 22:46, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
