- Comment Even the accompanying article is pushing NPOV. Links to a music journalist claiming a song is a signature song is still subjective. Excerpts from the article: The term is generally not applied to the successful song of a so-called "one-hit wonder" — an artist who is closely identified with one song because they have had no other successful songs. Says who? And A well-known example is "Over the Rainbow" (which is considered by many to be the most popular song of the twentieth century).

Upmerge to Category:Lutherans. If the cat is meant to include non-religous professions it should be deleted as a not-notable intersection. If it's meant to include only religous-professions it should be deleted because it has limited potention for growth and can sensibly be included in Category:Lutherans. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brewcrewer ( talk • contribs)- Typically these religion/occupation categories are (or at least should be) limited to occupations that have a notable intersection with the religion.

- Delete - all of these are for specifically religious occupations. All of the writers for instance, wrote devotional material and tracts (with one exception, Bo Giertz, whose fiction was still heavily informed by his faith).

- Nominator's rationale: This category is extremely underpopulated, it's very probable that it never reaches four or entries, and doesn't help navigation, since being a scottish living in cuba does not make two articles be related. Same user has also created similar stuff like a redirect from "Ukrainian Texan" to "Ukrainian American" and many other redirects which are probably going to get deleted, see the complaints about this user at Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2008_May_14, has created many other similar redirects that will probably all get deleted, and has deleted warnings from his talk page Enric Naval ( talk) 04:16, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

- Suggest merging Category:Specific citation templates to Category:Specific source templates
- Nominator's rationale: Merge, the few templates in this recently created category serve the same purpose / are of the same type as those in the nominated merge target category; ie they're all templates used to cite particular sources. Redundant. cjllw ʘ TALK 04:56, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: This category is extremely underpopulated, it's very probable that it never reaches four or entries, and doesn't help navigation, since being a scottish living in cuba does not make two articles be related. Same user has also created similar stuff like a redirect from "Ukrainian Texan" to "Ukrainian American" and many other redirects which are probably going to get deleted, see the complaints about this user at Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2008_May_14, has created many other similar redirects that will probably all get deleted, and has deleted warnings from his talk page Enric Naval ( talk) 04:16, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Someone really needs to stop this user Hashmi, Usman from creating virtually useless cats and articles - most have been deleted. ww2censor ( talk) 04:43, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. The one person currently in the category doesn't even belong there. Although she is of Scottish descent, she has American, not Cuban, nationality and was not born in Cuba. She is really an American of mixed Scottish and Cuban descent. A category called "Scottish Cubans" should only include people of Scottish descent who hold Cuban nationality.

- Delete, overcategorization on ethnicity. -- Soman ( talk) 11:42, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete It's a lousy drink anyway. Johnbod ( talk) 18:26, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete and link the person's article page to the appropriate Category:Americans of Scottish descent and Category:Americans of Cuban descent pages. Another case of how the American way of naming's ambiguous nature can lead to problems Mayumashu ( talk) 00:22, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - category is now empty. B.Wind ( talk) 03:31, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete empty now, but can only imagine the uselessness of the concept. Carlossuarez46 ( talk) 01:05, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
