:* Propose merging :Category:Sport in Essex by locality to :Category:Sport in Essex

:Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary layer, one-of-a-kind within England. The sub-cats are already within the other parent via :Category:Sport in England by populated place. – Fayenatic London 12:19, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:Legendary and mythological people by culture to :Category:Mythological people

:Nominator's rationale: Option A: merge per actual category content, it is not about legendary people (and if it would the category had better be split). Option B: delete as each of the subcategories is part of its own mythology and the different mythologies are entirely unrelated to each other. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:20, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

• Delete Per nom, it's a duplicate of :Category:Legendary people by nationality but with incorrect subcategories and massively less complete. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:33, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:14th-century Welsh judges to :Category:14th-century judges and :Category:Welsh judges

:Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's only one page in each, which isn't helpful for navigation Mason (talk) 01:42, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
