NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:Australian geishas

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: merge both categories to Category:Geishas. Good Ol’factory (talk) 04:32, 20 August 2015 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: There is only one Australian geisha at this time. Don't believe this category is necessary or helpful. Cannolis ( talk) 21:47, 31 May 2015 (UTC) reply
From my understanding, categories are meant to group like pages together and serve as a navigational tool between said pages. If there is but one page in a given category, doesn't that nullify the stated purpose of a category? Cannolis ( talk) 11:58, 1 June 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. As above, a category of one serves no purpose, and this category is highly unlikely to become more populated in the near future. Even the main Category:Geishas category is sparsely populated, with just seven Japanese names, so there is no obvious need to sub-categorize by nationality. -- DAJF ( talk) 01:51, 1 June 2015 (UTC) reply
  • delete It's been a long time since that name popped up on my radar... anyway, we obviously don't need a category for the one non-Japanese geisha, especially since she's also in the parent category as well. Mangoe ( talk) 13:45, 1 June 2015 (UTC) reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: tagging the Japanese category as well

Category:Romanian timelines

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: delete; the single article added to Category:Romanian timelines‎ could just as legitimately be in Category:Romanian history timelines‎ (the terms of Romanian presidents are part of Romanian history). This can be re-evaluated if more articles develop over time. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:46, 26 August 2015 (UTC) reply
Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:OVERLAPCAT, its content is already in Category:Romanian history timelines‎. Marcocapelle ( talk) 16:37, 14 May 2015 (UTC) reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: as another editor had removed the CFD template from the page

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. Good Ol’factory (talk) 23:42, 26 August 2015 (UTC) reply
Propose upmerging:
Nominator's rationale: I propose merging the racially motivated violence categories for England (7 pages, 1 subcategory) and Scotland (1 page, no subcategories) to the parent category for the United Kingdom (no pages, three subcategories including the nominated two). I don't see a need to have separate categories for England and Scotland here as none of the articles are really relevant to which country of the UK they took place in.

Nominator's rationale: Rename. I think that something needs to be done with this category and a renamme would be my preferred option. The category name currently relates to the redirect Clinton family which was previously referenced as cat main. Greg Kaye 04:59, 18 June 2015 (UTC) reply
