The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Indoor soccer competitions. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 (d) 10:24, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Only one article, which is already directly held in both the parent categories. – Fayenatic London 21:40, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Recipients of the Order of Courage[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. Although this is an obvious application of WP:C2B, arguments were instead in favor of deletion. Place Clichy's counterarguments for deletion were not justified at all, with their reply to RevelationDirect instead invoking the fallacy of tone policing. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 (d) 10:41, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Due to the existence of Category:Recipients of the Order of Courage (Iran), Recipients of the Order of Courage should become a parent category, within which Recipients of the Order of Courage (Russia) and Recipients of the Order of Courage (Iran) would be found. Rowing007 (talk) 18:09, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:OCAWARD. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:40, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:OCAWARD. Per the article, if you collect 4 of these awards you can trade them in for 1 Hero of the Russian Federation upgrade. That doesn't seem very defining and the articles don't treat it that way, listing this award in a list if at all. There is already a list of recipients in the main article. (If kept, rename per nom.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 11:08, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    That's just rude. Place Clichy (talk) 12:53, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not sure I understand the rationale behind deleting? There is an "Order of Courage" in Iran and in Russia. Is this not a clear-cut case of disambiguation? Rowing007 (talk) 22:27, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If we are to have a category for recipients of the Russian award, then your rename makes perfect sense. I don't think we should have the category at all though, because it's WP:NONDEFINING from my perspective. - RevelationDirect (talk) 01:57, 22 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename as nom, keep anyway as the case for deletion was not made. Place Clichy (talk) 12:53, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge and delete. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 (d) 10:30, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT. Unnecessarily drawn out tree for early 20th century. No need to merge to YYY0s fires in the United States or YYY0s natural disasters in the United States. –Aidan721 (talk) 17:46, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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: Merge/Delete, using Duchy of Carniola - Category:Establishments in the Duchy of Carniola and Category:Duchy of Carniola. - jc37 07:11, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, only 1-3 articles in each of these categories. A dual merge is not needed, the articles are already in year (establishment) categories in Europe. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:26, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, currently only one article in the category. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:54, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support With no objection to recreating if 5 articles ever appear. - RevelationDirect (talk) 07:17, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 (d) 10:34, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Not film characters. ★Trekker (talk) 00:31, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm not sure I understand the rationale. All of these characters appear in films. Doesn't that make them film characters? Pichpich (talk) 19:18, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The characters appear in films, but are all predominantly comic book characters. That those characters also appeared in movies doesn't appear to be a defining characteristic. Upmerge to Category:Dark Horse Comics characters. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 04:53, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. This is why we have to repeatedly delete Category:Characters adapted into the Marvel Cinematic Universe and similar crud.★Trekker (talk) 20:25, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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: merge and delete. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 (d) 10:42, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT (1 article). Isolated category. No other month/year cats for Algeria. –Aidan721 (talk) 01:39, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Member of the Prussian National Assembly[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: rename to Category:Members of the Prussian National Assembly. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 (d) 10:42, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: It seems this category's current name is a typo. Category names are typically plural, however the current cateogry name here says "Member" not "Members". RoundSquare (talk) 01:22, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

1 & 2 article categories for drawings or prints by museum[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: merge. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 (d) 10:43, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT
These types of subcategories are helpful for major institutions like the Louvre and Met but are likely to remain tiny forever with most museums. All of these were created by 1 retired editor a couple years ago so they are not "part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme" as described in SMALLCAT. Where appropriate, I added articles to other drawings/prints categories so no dual upmerge is needed. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:04, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Sculptures depicting the Last Supper[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: merge to Category:Last Supper in art. (non-admin closure)LaundryPizza03 (d) 10:44, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT approaching WP:C1, an unpopulated category
Wikipedia doesn't have any article defined by this topic but I have not objection to recreating it if 5+ ever get written. The only things in here now is Miniature altarpiece (WB.232) which includes numerous Biblical scenes; the Last Supper is hard to see but is on the rounded base. (Alternatively, that 1 article could be be upmerged to Category:Last Supper in art.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:04, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:02, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment This category has been emptied. Liz Read! Talk! 01:21, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per above, especially now that it's empty. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 18:26, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Procedural note Nominated categories should normally not be emptied while a CfD/R/M is going on, especially if C1 or SMALLCAT are invoked as rationale for deletion. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 04:25, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, and have voiced my displeasure in several CFD discussions when this happens, but in this case, the page was not removed from the category by the nominator but another editor. Liz Read! Talk! 03:59, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
What can be upmerged when the category is empty? Liz Read! Talk! 03:42, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I still see this nomination as binding on the one article, Miniature altarpiece (WB.232), regardless of the out of process edit. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:57, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
