:* Propose renaming :Category:Big Brother (UK) seasons to :Category:Big Brother (British TV series) seasons

:Nominator's rationale: Opposed speedy. The main article of the categories is Big Brother (British TV series), and it's also a subcategory of {{cat|Big Brother (British TV series)}}. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 16:37, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

• Support per WP:C2D. I do not have an opinion on the word "seasons" (this came up in the speedy discussion). Marcocapelle (talk) 22:32, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:Football clubs in Luxembourg by city to :Category:Football clubs in Luxembourg

:Nominator's rationale: There is only one city in Luxembourg Rathfelder (talk) 12:57, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

• Support per nom, but dual merge also to :Category:Association football clubs by city. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:27, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

:Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page discussions. GiantSnowman 12:23, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

• Support, though I note there is more than one club in Dudelange, and ditto Esch-sur-Alzette. Grutness...wha? 03:01, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Edible bivalves}}

:Nominator's rationale: Being edible (to humans) is subjective (see a recent CFD) and in many cases non-defining (e.g. articles such as Mytilus trossulus and Ensis ensis make no mention of edibility).  Note: no upmerge is needed as the articles are categorized by genus etc (in :Category:Bivalves by classification). DexDor ^(talk) 12:45, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

• Support per precedent. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:29, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
• Delete per the previous deletions other edible mollusc categories. Plantdrew (talk) 18:39, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
• Rename. Many of our readers would be interested in bivalves commonly used as human food (though how many of our readers actually use categories?). If not "edible", then what term, "culinary bivalves"? Pelagic (talk) 23:34, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

::There is :Category:Commercial molluscs so a merge to that or a rename to :Category:Commercial bivalves is an option. I think readers interested in culinary use of bivalves would be better off going to Bivalvia#Use_as_food (which could be expanded) (and possibly then going to the linked articles) than by going via the category to articles such as Saccostrea cucullata where use as food is barely mentioned.

:The result of the discussion was: merge to :Category:Transformers robot characters; remains virtually uncontested after 7 weeks. MER-C 10:07, 26 January 2020 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:Decepticons to :Category:Transformers characters

:Nominator's rationale: Something like 25 remaining characters in the series. It previously had a maze like structure of some 400+ characters. After removing the redirects, all remaining characters fit comfortably into the primary parent category. This in-universe designation isn't particularly useful for the general reader, especially when most characters have 5+ variations listed on their pages. TTN (talk) 21:12, 5 December 2019 (UTC)

• If merged, merge to :Category:Transformers robot characters, see discussion below. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:33, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

• Further comment, there are still 12 articles and 13 redirects in the category, so the category does not have to be upmerged by all means. Marcocapelle (talk) 22:25, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
• Of the 12 articles, three are Autobots, one is a planet-eating deity that is just called a Decepticon for marketing reasons, and one isn't even a Transformers character in the first place. JIP | Talk 08:57, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
• Feel free to purge articles that should not have been in this category in the first place. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:04, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
• Removed Jetfire, Sideswipe (Transformers), Smokescreen (Transformers) and Serpentor from the category. Unicron left in because of consensus agreed back in 2012 that he should be listed as a Decepticon because he was marketed as one, even though pretty his every appearance showed that he was non-aligned and sometimes even actively tried to kill the Decepticons.
