:Nominator's rationale: Category of all redirects pointing to one article. –Aidan721 (talk) 17:21, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

• Delete per WP:SMALLCAT, upmerging not necessary. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 00:27, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
• Move redirects to a separate category. This category's redirects are categorized as per WP:SUBTOPICCAT, but they all point to the one article inside. So I'd say go with deleting this category and separating the redirects into a redirect category, similar to the endless categories for character/episode redirects and :Category:Unopposed ministerial by-elections to the Parliament of the United Kingdom (redirects). ミラP@Miraclepine 14:14, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

:Wikipedia doesn't have any article defined by this topic but I have not objection to recreating it if 5+ ever get written. The only thing in here now is Veiled Christ which shows Christ prepared for entombment but contains no depiction of an actual tomb nor is there any text in that article indicating that he is already entombed.

:* Propose Deleting :Category:The Moscow Times

:Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT approaching WP:C2F, one eponymous page

:The Moscow Times is an English-language newspaper in Russia.

• Background I originally speedy nominated this category to be renamed to :Category:The Moscow Times people since it contained dozens of biography articles and little else.

:* Propose merging {{lc|2016 Olympic gold medalists for China}} to {{lc|Medalists at the 2016 Summer Olympics}} and {{lc|Olympic gold medalists for China}}

:* Propose merging {{lc|2016 Olympic silver medalists for China}} to {{lc|Medalists at the 2016 Summer Olympics}} and {{lc|Olympic silver medalists for China}}

:* Propose merging {{lc|2016 Olympic bronze medalists for China}} to {{lc|Medalists at the 2016 Summer Olympics}} and {{lc|Olympic bronze medalists for China}}

:Nominator's rationale: arbitrary intersection between country and colour of medal. The standard categories for Olympic medallists are "Medalists at the X Olympics" and "Olympic Y medalists for Z", we don't have separate categories intersecting the two. Seems like an WP:OVERCAT to me. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:31, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

• Merge per WP:OVERLAPCAT. –Aidan721 (talk) 11:55, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
• Keep -- These are all well-poipulat4ed categories. We should only upmerge where there are small categories. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:55, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

::Merge as seems to be a random intersection - no other sets for China from different Games, and no other gold / silver / bronze sets from 2016, nor from any other year as far as I am aware. That inconsistency has also created other issues, e.g Qin Kai (diver) should have Olympic bronze medalists for China to reflect his 2008 ranking, but the bronze was just changed to the 2016 wording so it looks like he only won bronze on that occasion, and Zhang Nan (badminton) has 2016 Olympic gold medalists for China and 2016 Olympic bronze medalists for China but also still has the standard Medalists at the 2016 Summer Olympics which should have been removed. those are the only 2 articles I checked and found those, so it's likely they are widespread across the set. So, randomly created and not expanded upon since 2016 (despite surviving a CfD that year on the basis that the idea was sound and could be applied to other large groups of medallists) and does not follow subcategorisation rules, partly because its still the only set of its kind 7 years later - the USA has been subcatted into medal colour and event and there was some interactions created for water polo, but all others have no intersection. Should be merged for now until someone wants to create a more comprehensive tree, ideally for every large nation across every Games but at least for many at one Games or one nation at many Games.

:* Propose renaming :Category:France company templates to :Category:French company templates

:Nominator's rationale: "France company" sounds very odd. ★Trekker (talk) 01:43, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

• Oppose per :Category:Company templates by country. I agree that it sounds very odd, but I believe this is unfortunately the convention for template categories right now. I'd be more open to supporting a batch proposal of the whole tree. –Aidan721 (talk) 12:49, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
• Oppose per :Category:Company templates by country. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 23:01, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
• Oppose lacks clarity. Is this about ethnic French companies (founded by a Frenchman), companies doing business in French (does it have a franciziaion certificate to prove it meets French-speaking regulations>?), companies that once originated in France (such as some businesses in the former Empire)? etc -- 64.229.90.172 (talk) 07:20, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
