The result of the discussion was: delete. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:20, 23 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Is something someone didn't do really a defining characteristic? It seems wrong to associate people in this manner. --woodensuperman 13:43, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, I would be in favor of deleting all "acquitted" categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:40, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Delete per nom. I think that there are rare cases where being acquitted for a crime is defining. But in practically all the scenarios, they were convicted of the crime intially. Mason (talk) 00:27, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: speedy delete per WP:CSD#G4. ✗plicit 13:45, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Ok, so I'm updating this category to reflect that the people in it need to be remerged. The page creator is only now contesting it's deletion... [1], even though they were given notice and were active on wikipedia during the discussion. Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_October_29#Slave_traders_killed_in_the_American_Civil_War. Mason (talk) 13:19, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete. Was already deleted in a recent discussion but recreated. --woodensuperman 14:16, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete. Obvious G4. Why is this even here? StAnselm (talk) 15:22, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete per nom. @Liz: if you are unsure on how to empty a category you can better leave it to another admin to process it rather than to remove the G4 tag. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:45, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. I just don't want a lot of red link categories on article pages because the category was deleted before it was emptied. Liz Read! Talk! 00:54, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment @Liz. That's a reasonable concern, but removing it also meant that there was no other way to signal that the category ought to be deleted. Hence, I brought it here. I'm going to move most pages back to the category where they ought to be. Mason (talk) 03:27, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:22, 23 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Following up on Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_June_28#Category:Immigrants_to_the_Colony_of_New_Zealand this category should be merged into the parent under the same reasoning that this is overcategorization that leads to information loss and small cats Mason. The end result of the last discussion was manual merge. I think that should apply here as well. (talk) 00:48, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
