:* Propose deleting {{lc|WikiProject Film banner templates with categories disabled}}

:Nominator's rationale: Outdated maintenance tracking category no longer populated by the template that formerly used it. Previously, {{tl|WikiProject Film}} had complex coding that created categories for whether each film met various individual class-rating criteria or not, and would populate this category if any or all of those were disabled -- but that's long since been deprecated and removed, so that the template no longer features any code that would add this category, and thus never files anything in it.
So it can always be recreated at a later date if it's ever needed again for some new purpose, but there's no real need for it to sit permanently empty if it isn't actually being used anymore. Bearcat (talk) 19:55, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: merge to :Category:Sogdian art. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 04:19, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose splitting :Category:Sogdian metalworking to :Category:Sogdian art and :Category:Metalworking

:Nominator's rationale: Dual upmerge. There's only one page in here, which isn't helpful for navigation Mason (talk) 18:33, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

• Single merge to :Category:Sogdian art after I just added the article to :Category:Silver objects, a grandchild category of :Category:Metalworking. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:08, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. No objection to recreate the category when some articles about Manipur nobles (beyond royalty) will be available. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:20, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Officially used writing systems of India}}

:Nominator's rationale: WP:NONDEF. It's also basically nonsense. These are the writing systems used to write the schedule 8 languages of India, but they're mostly just conventional scripts, not "Official". PepperBeast (talk) 14:05, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

• Keep on administrative grounds.Note for context A recent nomination of the corresponding article ended with no consensus (though the article has since been moved to a more concise title). Pertinent points appear in that discussion. Participants in this discussion ought to read through that discussion for context. In any event, the article survived and the category is no less justifiable than the article. Largoplazo (talk) 16:04, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
• Delete, not a defining characteristic. The fact that there is an article is not a relevant argument, not for every article there is also a category. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:24, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Moirang}}

:Nominator's rationale: Tiny category containing two articles. Delete without prejudice. PepperBeast (talk) 13:55, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:9th century in the Carolingian Empire to :Category:Carolingian Empire

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Disasters in Germany by province or territory}}

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Events in Germany by province or territory}}

:* Propose merging :Category:Disasters in Saxony to :Category:Events in Leipzig

:Nominator's rationale: unnecessary category tree created by a disruptive editor Mason (talk) 02:25, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

• Delete, again a whole tree for a single article. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:48, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
• Comment :Category:Educational institutes established in 1927 is a category redirect, not a category, so I'm not sure if it warrants deletion. Its target category, :Category:Educational institutions established in 1927, isn't tagged for consideration here. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 18:05, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
• {{ping|Smasongarrison|Marcocapelle}} thoughts on Liz's comment? Do you want to delete the category redirect, or do you want to delete it target (in which case I can relist and tag said target)? HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 04:11, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
• :I'd rather delete Educational institutes established in 1927, because it seems unlikely to be used, and it was made by a problematic editor. But I don't feel that strongly about it. Mason (talk) 04:13, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
• :* {{ping|HouseBlaster}} delete, it is meaningless to have just a single redirect for 1927 out of what could be entire series for every year. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:27, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

• :Category:Free sex activists delete, no upmerge needed
• The concept seems to be undefined except by inference from the supercats. The stated {{tl|catmain}}, :Free sex, is a dab. Yhe cats were created in 2012 by {{username|Almust}} (locked 2013) — I surmise in order to to add :Category:Free sex activists to article Kim Iryeop. All articles and cats seem to be in relevant supercats already, so no upmerges needed. jnestorius^(talk) 01:03, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
