:Nominator's rationale: Mason (talk) 00:03, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: There's only one page in here British West Indian labour unrest of 1934–1939, and an extraordinary number of redundant parent categories . Mason (talk) 23:25, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Labor disputes in Uganda}}

:* Propose merging :Category:Sexual assault in education to :Category:Sexual harassment in education

:Nominator's rationale: Upmerge because there's not really a need to distinguish between type of sexual crimes/abuse etc. Moreover, there isn't a sexual assault tree, it redirects to sexual abuse Mason (talk) 18:45, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:Films about con artists to :Category:Films about scam artists

:Nominator's rationale: Consistency with the article scam. And con artist redirects there. Kailash29792 (talk) 17:56, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

::Oppose{{snd}}"con artist" is a significantly more common term than "scam artist". See [https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=con+artist%2Cscam+artist&year_start=1800&year_end=2022&corpus=en&smoothing=3 the ngrams], for example. jlwoodwa (talk) 19:29, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

• Oppose per jlwoodwa; if we had an article on con/scam artists (which I'm surprised we don't) the category name would depend on the article, but in lieu of that con artist is the common name. Charlotte (Queen of Hearts • talk) 06:21, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:Video games based on Guardians of the Galaxy to :Category:Video games based on Marvel Comics

:* REDIRECT Propose renaming :Category:1870 disestablishments in Germany to :Category:1870 disestablishments in the North German Confederation

:Nominator's rationale: rename and purge, this was a short period after the German Confederation was abolished and the German Empire did not exist yet. In these years there was a North German Confederation led by Prussia, of which Baden and Bavaria were not a member (so they should be purged). If renamed, these categories can also conveniently be added to the tree of :Category:North German Confederation. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:25, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:Aviation accidents and incidents caused by navigation system failure to :Category:Aviation accidents and incidents caused by instrument failure

:Nominator's rationale: No need to distinguish by which instrument failed Mason (talk) 15:41, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

• Merge per nom. One article can be put in the airliner subcat though. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:25, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
• Merge per nom. FYI, I have nominated the destination category for renaming as :Category:Aviation accidents and incidents involving flight instrument failure, primarily because instrument (or navigation system) failure is almost always subsidiary to pilot error in notable aircraft accidents. Only small, simple modern aircraft are configured in such a way that all or most flight instruments are likely to fail simultaneously, and those accidents are seldom notable.

:* Propose merging :Category:Airliner bombings by country to :Category:Airliner bombings

:Nominator's rationale: Upmerge. This category isn't helpful for navigation with only two countries in it Mason (talk) 15:40, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

• Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:25, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
• Merge per nom. Violates WP:OCLOCATION and WP:NARROWCAT; the absolute number of airliner bombings is too small to warrant subdividing, it's unlikely to grow substantially in the future, and the country where a bombing took place is not a central defining characteristic. OCLOCATION dictates that countries of occurrence may be useful for dividing up huge and unwieldy categories, but this isn't one of them, and is unlikely to ever be.

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Satellite meteorology in Europe}}

:Nominator's rationale: Only page isn't about Satellite meteorology in Europe. It's a method that's not exclusive to Europe Mason (talk) 15:34, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

• Support in principle per nom, but I guess this should be merged to :Category:Satellite meteorology. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:32, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: Upmerge. There's no parent Health services, so I see not benefit to isolating this content Mason (talk) 15:31, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: Dual merge. There are only two pages in this category, which isn't helpful for navigation. Mason (talk) 15:19, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: This is referring to characters, not the puppets themselves.

:Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's only one page in here, and its an internet directory of educators, not any bios of specific educators. Mason (talk) 02:26, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: merge to :Category:Defunct airlines of the Caribbean and :Category:Companies of Grenada. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 16:13, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Defunct airlines of Grenada}}

:Nominator's rationale: Category containing a single article which is List of defunct airlines of Grenada. Unhelpful for navigation. AusLondonder (talk) 02:12, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

::Why not merge it to Defunct airlines of the Caribbean, Defunct airlines by country, and Airlines of Grenada? Please consider what happens to the contents of the category when you recommend delete. Mason (talk) 02:29, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:::Because the first two are container categories and the third is a category with no articles and which this list is unsuitable for. I also think the list article is already appropriately categorised. AusLondonder (talk) 02:50, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

• Dual merge to :Category:Defunct airlines of the Caribbean and :Category:Airlines of Grenada. The former does not have to be a container category, there are lots of subcategories in it that can be upmerged too. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:09, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
• :Maybe to defunct airlines of the Caribbean, but the Airlines of Grenada category is currently empty other than this category. AusLondonder (talk) 00:50, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: no consensus. A merge proposal suggesting :Category:Electoral lists as a target might find consensus. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 16:15, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:Party lists to :Category:Lists of political candidates by nationality

:Nominator's rationale: Party lists are also lists of candidates. The distinction between the two categories isn't apparent and thus makes it harder to find similar lists in other countries. Dajasj (talk) 05:58, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

• Merge, per nom, but then move :Category:Candidate lists for European Parliament elections directly under :Category:Lists of political candidates. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:37, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
• :To add to this, State list (Germany) also needs another place Dajasj (talk) 07:53, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
• Merge to :Category:Electoral lists The article discussing "party lists" is called "electoral list," so I feel the category should match the article title. I oppose the proposed merge target because it seems more confusing than helpful. (Political parties are not nationalities). - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 18:04, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

:* Hm, this is clearly an unnecessary fork. They should all three be merged together. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:31, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

:*:I disagree. The articles in your proposed target include countries that don't use party list systems (e.g., the United States). "Electoral lists" are lists of candidates in specific systems. It makes sense that we have a category dedicated to these types of lists. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 20:00, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

:* I agree that the "nationalities" part is also not ideal. But the articles in :Category:Electoral lists are a different type of articles, not a list of candidates but a description of a single electoral group. Not sure whether these belong in the same category?Dajasj (talk) 19:08, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

:*:"Party list" is given as type of electoral list in the lead of the article. I guess there's an argument that this category should be a subcategory of :Category:Electoral lists, but I don't really see the need for two separate categories here. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 19:56, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

:*:* Only now I realize there is confusion between Wikipedia lists versus real-life lists (as a topic in its own right). There should be two independent trees after all. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:19, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

:::::Your latest changes made it so that :Category:Party lists in South African general elections is not part of :Category:Lists of political candidates by nationality, which I believe it should be because it is a list of candidates. Dajasj (talk) 06:17, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

:::::* No, :Category:Lists of political candidates by nationality is for Wikipedia list articles, not for real-life lists like Party lists. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:34, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

:::::*:Yeah, but the article is both an overview of real-life lists as well as a Wikipedia list of all candidates. (except for the Philippines for some reason). Dajasj (talk) 07:28, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: For those favoring a merge, do you agree with the updated :Category:Electoral lists target? There is no clear consensus on whether a merge should happen, so a relist is also to allow for participation to determine if there is consensus for any merge.
