Nominator's rationale: Artist songs categories aren't split up by which ones were released as singles. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 22:41, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Agree with nominator's rationale. Tame (talk) 07:21, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Cabinets of Lebanon. – Fayenatic London 23:26, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Should be renamed to be in line with the proposed renaming of Category:German Cabinet, and to be consistent with the rest of the category tree. Renerpho (talk) 18:53, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People from Amwell, Hertfordshire[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:People from Great Amwell (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 06:45, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: "Amwell" isn't currently an individual place, there is the village and parish of Great Amwell and there was also Little Amwell. Either this should be deleted or split to Category:People from Great Amwell (which it looks like most are for) and Category:People from Little Amwell. I have fixed the links to Amwell, Hertfordshire (that now points to the DAB) that I can by pointing them to one of the specific places but there are still 4 that I can't determine. In addition this title is also ambiguous as there is a hamlet in the St Albans district called Amwell[1] so if kept it should probably be moved to Category:People from Amwell, East Hertfordshire.

Nominator's rationale: The company was rebranded in 2021.[2] OceanHok (talk) 09:10, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    • Support company has rebranded and category needs updating accordingly Lankyant (talk) 07:31, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Provinces of the Republic of China[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:Republic of China (1912–1949) and Category:Subdivisions of former countries. bibliomaniac15 06:46, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. (Note that Provinces of the Republic of China is a redirect to Administrative divisions of Taiwan but that is not what this category is about, and we already have Category:Subdivisions of Taiwan.)

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. – Fayenatic London 23:21, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: rename per WP:C2C: Category:Republic of China (1912–1949) and per actual content, all articles are about the era before 1949. I did not list it at WP:CFDS because it is possibly controversial. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:19, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support -- I thought we had long since split content on China 1912-49 from that for Taiwan 1945-present, but these ones clearly got missed. Peterkingiron (talk) 13:10, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Category:The Late Late Show (American talk show) hosts[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. Doczilla @SUPERHEROLOGIST 07:48, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This appears to be a clear case of inappropriate overcategorization due to WP:PERFCAT: Performers by role or composition. Similarly, we don't characterize actors by performance on television series nor TV shows they've appeared on. --Animalparty! (talk) 02:22, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • OK, delete. No merge is necessary. I have added the like-named Irish category which prompted me to create the American show category in the first place. – Fayenatic London 18:37, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment -- This is not about single performances, but about a long running role. I assume that the hosts are more TV presenters than actors. Guests on Late Late Show (either venue) would certainly fail PERFCAT. I had expected to find Category:BBC Newsnight presenters, but it does not exist: there are only long lists of personnel in Newsnight, ample to make a worthwhile category.

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:El Sobrante, Contra Costa County, California. (non-admin closure) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 06:18, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: To avoid confusion between this place and El Sobrante, Riverside County, California. There was a RM for moving El Sobrante, California to El Sobrante, Contra Costa County, California, which I carried out. I also made a dab page. Natg 19 (talk) 01:55, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support, as consistent with articles. The two El Sobrantes have almost identical populations at twelve and something thousand each.--Mvqr (talk) 17:14, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
