As much as I'd like to tar and feather every one of these bastards (check out how many books
Anthony Comstock was responsible for destroying), I think the category is too vague to be meaningful because censorship is regrettably too pervasive. It's a very slim minority of the politicians presently in office in the United States that don't support some form of government-enforced censorship, whether it's of depictions of sexuality on the internet, violence in video games, or profanity on broadcast media. And that's in an ostensibly free country...this would additionally become a dumping ground for every leader from a nation that suppresses political speech.

Category:Exercise. I don't believe its existence as a broad enough seperate sub-topic is warranted at this time, as evidenced by its size of containing one article after existing for a month and a half.

Rename to match parent articles, and to avoid acronyms that are probably unknown to non-Dutch speakers. See also prior

This category neither gives a usefull navigational aid nor does it help in systematically categorizing article space. At the very least, it should be restricted to those persons, notable for their conversion. Trivia like Von Neumann agreed to convert to Catholicism to placate her family. (from John von Neumann) earn hardly a place in the article, let alone should be used for categorization. -- Pjacobi 11:55, 3 November 2006 (UTC) reply

Delete trivial comic book supervillain group category. The parent article,
Horsemen of Apocalypse, already lists everyone ever considered a member of this. The main problem with this category is that many characters became "members" simply by being brainwashed by
Apocalypse, so by virtue of a one- or two- issue plot twist, this becomes additional meaningless clutter on the articles of some major characters, like the
Hulk and
Wolverine. Plus there's our prior CFD precedents against categorizing the affiliations of comic book characters...but this one fails regardless.

Delete subjective category.
Superman in popular culture already has an extensive list of supposed pastiches and parodies, which can be justified there through explanations and citations (and removed if either is not provided). Keeping this as a category is just begging for subjectivity, original research, and an eventual flood of entries, considering how formative Superman was of the entire superhero genre. We might as well create
Category:Superheroes who can fly and wear capes.
