:* Propose merging :Category:Creation myths involving wolves to :Category:Wolves in folklore, religion and mythology

:Nominator's rationale: merge, only one article in the category, and it is not about a creation myth in the usual meaning of the word. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:26, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

::Endorse. Jahaza (talk) 23:49, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:Non-human races in Hindu mythology to :Category:Hindu legendary creatures

:Nominator's rationale: upmerge, we categorize by what subject are, not by what they aren't. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:59, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

::Merge, no clear inclusion criteria that would make it distinct. It is common for myths to treat all animal characters as sapient. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 01:01, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:Turkish settlements to :Category:Turkish settlement schemes

:Nominator's rationale: Following others e.g. :Category:Settlement schemes in the Middle East. I have brought this to a full discussion rather than Speedy WP:C2C as it may be controversial. – Fayenatic London 20:44, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

• Rename, a settlement may mean a populated place and there aren't any populated places in this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:31, 26 April 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Depressive suicidal black metal groups}}

:Nominator's rationale: Genre doesnt have its own page, very limited "genre" that doesn't have very many bands on Wikipedia at all. Unnecessary category for a very niche microgenre Lil Happy Lil Sad ^:): 20:36, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:13, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Iași in fiction}}

:Nominator's rationale: delete, not a very defining characteristic of the only article in the category. The article is already in :Category:Novels set in Romania. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:17, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was: rename to :Category:Battles involving the Maratha Empire. WP:C2D. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:37, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose renaming :Category:Battles involving the Maratha Confederacy to :Category:Battles involving the Maratha Empire

:Nominator's rationale: Per the recent move on Talk:Maratha Confederacy#Requested move 17 April 2025. Shakakarta (talk) 15:13, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

• Why has only this category been nominated? There is a whole tree under :Category:Maratha Confederacy. Also, I suppose this can be speedied. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:21, 25 April 2025 (UTC)
• :Sorry, I don't know how to nominate all of those categories at once. I can nominate them individually, but if they can all be speedied, then doing so individually would be redundant. Shakakarta (talk) 16:07, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose merging :Category:Azerbaijani music stubs to :Category:Azerbaijan stubs and :Category:Music stubs

:Nominator's rationale: Underpopulated stub category, with no evidence of approval by WikiProject Stub sorting. As always, stub categories are not free for any editor to create at will for just a small handful of topics -- the minimum bar for the creation of a stub category is 60 articles, and for that reason stub categories have to be proposed to the Wikiproject for approval before they can be created. But there's no evidence that the creator of this ever followed that process, and there are just four articles here -- and while {{cl|Azerbaijani people stubs}} does have some musician templates, those aren't on enough people to get this over 60 pages even if they were modified to add the people here.

:* Propose renaming :Category:Mythological kings of Denmark to :Category:Legendary kings of Denmark

:Nominator's rationale: rename per List of legendary kings of Denmark, similar to :Category:Semi-legendary kings of Sweden. This is unrelated to Norse mythology. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:03, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: delete, the category tree is meant to contain subcategories with cemeteries and other burial places, but there are only biographies in here. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:22, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

::Delete We have agreed to not sort people by place of birth, death, or burial. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 19:16, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:Nominator's rationale: Underpopulated category that I wasn't able to populate. Upmerge for now. ^SMason_Garrison 03:24, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{lc|Palestinian people of Syrian descent}}

:Nominator's rationale: The subcat is probably about to be renamed without "Syrian", see Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2025_April_6#Category%3APalestinian_people_of_Syrian-Assyrian_descent. That will leave Lana Albeik who is already categorised within :Category:Emirati people of Palestinian descent and :Category:Emirati people of Syrian descent, which are more accurate; even if she identifies as Palestinian, she is currently also within other Palestinian categories. IMHO she should also be removed from "Syrian" categories including :Category:Syrian people of Palestinian descent. – Fayenatic London 21:44, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

:* {{ping|Fayenatic london}} meanwhile User:Starklinson added two other articles, both about people with one Syrian parent. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:05, 18 April 2025 (UTC)

:** OK, purge instead of delete. Anis Sayigh and Maher Charif can stay, but the latter should not also be in the converse :Category:Syrian people of Palestinian descent. – Fayenatic London 21:15, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
