:* Propose deleting {{lc|Former Roman Catholic churches in England and Wales}}, {{lc|Former Roman Catholic churches in England}}, and {{lc|Former Roman Catholic churches in Wales}}.

:Nominator's rationale: Almost every entry is a WP:NPOV violation. For a church to be a *former* Roman Catholic church, it would have to have changed hands. This is only true if you believe that the Church of England did not exist before the Reformation. The view of the Church of England itself, however, is that its history begins in 597 with Augustine of Canterbury, and that none of these buildings have ever changed hands since they were built.

• Comment - you need to add {{cl|Former Roman Catholic churches in England}} and {{cl|Former Roman Catholic churches in Wales}} to the nom. Oculi (talk) 18:22, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
• Comment- done; thank you! Marnanel (talk) 18:26, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
• And :Category:Former Roman Catholic churches in the United Kingdom. Oculi (talk) 18:27, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
• Support, this largely overlaps with :Category:7th-century church buildings in England up to the 15th century. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:32, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
• Delete This is about (1) monasteries dissolved at the Reformation (2) any Anglican church built before the Reformation. As others have said this is about any church in England and Wales of the period. The English church was reformed at the Reformation. Some Catholic masses continued illegally in private houses, before a new Catholic church was organised in England considerably later. This certainly fails WP:NPOV. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:33, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
• Delete, or in theory it could contain every pre-Reformation Church of England church too. If the categories were intended for something more specific, they'd need re-naming. Sionk (talk) 13:19, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: merge to :Category:Ancient Egyptian royal sealers. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 16:40, 19 November 2022 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:Ancient Egyptian Royal Seal-bearer to :Category:Ancient Egyptian royal seal-bearers

:Nominator's rationale: While there's no article on this office yet (which disqualifies it from speedy renaming), it seems that: a) the title should be lowercased; b) be in plural, because the category only contains the office holders. Brandmeister^talk 10:57, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

• Merge to :Category:Ancient Egyptian royal sealers, the two categories undoubtedly have the same scope. Ultimately they may be merged to :Category:Ancient Egyptian officials, as it does not seem a very substantive title. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:12, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
• Support as well, barring other considerations. Brandmeister^talk 14:54, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
• Merge as suggested. They sound like the same office. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:35, 12 November 2022 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|DC Animated Universe templates}}

:Nominator's rationale: SMALLCAT ★Trekker (talk) 01:30, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

• Upmerge to parent categories rather than delete, there is no reason to leave the template orphaned. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:08, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
