Keep or Upmerge A building playing host to a top level major league sport is a defining aspect of that building. The naming might be better, but the purpose of the category is valid. -

True enough, but are we going to delete categories about the World Cup, Super Bowl and Olympic venues? Otherwise, what is the difference? I don't want to keep this just because other stuff exists, but want to know if there is a objective, rather than subjective difference between those cases and this one. --

Personally, I would !vote to delete for the same reason, but I can't speak for others. Olympic Venues might be a special case since a lot of those venues are built specifically for the Olympics. But no stadium was ever built specifically for the Super Bowl, and not many specifically for the World Cup.

I don't agree, I also think arenas/theaters etc are defined by the type of concerts they are able to attract. Maybe not specifically Cher but in general concerts of a certain level of music. Just like this would be a hockey game of the National Hockey League level. You can't compare a specific artists concert with a general type of event. The two are distinct. This is no different than
Category:Music venues in Alberta. -

The type of event in this case would be hockey. In that case, your comparable would then be
Category:Ice hockey venues. Incidentally, as I type this, the Senators and Sabres are playing a game in a community rink in Dundas, Ontario. The rink was not notable before, and it is still not notable, even for having hosted an NHL game.

And this one is just a subcategory of that one.... As for the game, its only a pre-season game. These rinks are all rinks that played regular season games. And isn't it actually happening in Hamilton at Copps Colliseum? That's what they said on the radio today. -

Keep - the title is strange, but it's better to have these grouped together the way we group "characters by occupation," "characters by narrative role," etc. together.

Keep - per comments by Roscelese. Unless there is a better place to upmerge or recategorize the sub-categories, I think this one should not be deleted. --

No action - Hold on! Some of the contents are topics relating to fiction, like storylines in fiction. Some of the contents are things that are fictional, like fictional beverages. None of the renames successfully encompass both. So the category either needs to be split, or the name kept. --
