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: keep. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 09:08, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: No article, no category Mvcg66b3r (talk) 14:49, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What do you mean, no article, what do I need to fix? ThinkingSirus1800 (talk) 14:51, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You mean to tell me that that just the INSP network article won't do for the category? ThinkingSirus1800 (talk) 15:02, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And the INSP is on the category. ThinkingSirus1800 (talk) 15:04, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And the Imagicomm Communications link locates to INSP. ThinkingSirus1800 (talk) 15:07, 20 August 2022 (UTC) strike sock -- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 21:40, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, even while there is no separate article (yet) it is still a defining characteristic. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:17, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Best to build the structure connected to it before we build an article as the company ramps up. No issue with this category. Nate (chatter) 23:44, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Despite the socking, my vote! remains the same. Nate (chatter) 02:59, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Defunct code search engines[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: upmerge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 09:09, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT; only one page (Google Code Search) and unlikely to grow significantly. Retro (talk | contribs) 14:05, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agree in principle but merge to parent categories instead of a plain deletion. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:19, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Indeed, upmerging was my intended resolution; it's more of a WP:NARROWCAT than completely inappropriate. Retro (talk | contribs) 11:26, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge/delete all. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 09:15, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, this is a very poorly populated tree (many raions are not even represented in this tree), it is better to organize this at oblast level than at raion level. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:49, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge, we do not need a separate category by every former name of a populated place (with some exceptions like Byzantium/Constantinople/Istanbul). Marcocapelle (talk) 16:38, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all per nom: An extremely common cause of death and non-notable as a result. If we had this, we would end up having a huge amount of similar categories to a point of drain on the project's servers. It also is not really a category that is going to ever be complete, as a result of how common it is.— Shibbolethink ( ) 14:08, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all per nom. Cause of death rarely defines a life. Rathfelder (talk) 21:07, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all per nom and Rathfelder. The nuances of a particular individual's death are probably better described in prose. And when the cause of death is a defining characteristic, the death event will usually have its own article. Looking at the articles that populate the categories in this nomination, they appear to be almost entirely biographies of individuals. Retro (talk | contribs) 14:05, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
