:* Propose deleting {{lc|Biota of Tierra del Fuego}}

:Nominator's rationale: Just delete for now without prejudice. It's a redundant layer and its only child is already in all the trees of this cat's parents. NLeeuw (talk) 13:35, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:24, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Southern Cone countries}}

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Countries in South America by region}}

:Nominator's rationale: WP:ARBITRARYCAT. There is no universal definition of Southern Cone; Paraguay is sometimes included, sometimes excluded, and only some Federative units of Brazil are sometimes included, sometimes excluded, but never is Brazil as a whole included. Even if we take the strict definition of just Argentina, Chile and Uruguay, that's only three countries, and this category has no other navigational value. Its parent :Category:Countries in South America by region only has this child, so that was a redundant layer anyway, and should be deleted as well. NLeeuw (talk) 13:30, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

• Delete, there are only 12 countries in South America so that does not require diffusion. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:35, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose upmerging :Category:Southern cone music to :Category:Music of South America

:Nominator's rationale: Main article was deleted as WP:OR: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Southern cone music. The remainder may be upmerged to :Category:Music of South America. NLeeuw (talk) 13:21, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:Haitian people of Mulatto descent to :Category:Mulatto Haitians

:Nominator's rationale: rename per article Mulatto Haitians. It probably is a case of WP:C2D speedy renaming, but maybe there are objections. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:35, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

• Speedy rename per WP:C2D. No objections from me. NLeeuw (talk) 13:24, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting :Category:1782 in the Maratha Empire

:* Propose deleting :Category:1792 in the Maratha Empire

:Nominator's rationale: delete, isolated year categories. No need to merge, the articles are still in :Category:1782 in India and :Category:1792 in India, and already in :Category:Treaties of the Maratha Empire. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:22, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:20th-century Andorran people by occupation to :Category:20th-century Andorran people

:Nominator's rationale: There's no need to have a by occupation category when there's only one occupation Mason (talk) 00:26, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
