Nominator's rationale:delete per
WP:SMALLCAT, the only article in the category is the eponymous article. No need to merge, the article is well-categorized.

Keep and populate -- We also have a subcat for Lords Wardens; and I would suggest that the Scottish counties over which the Warden had jurisdiction could appear in the category.

Scottish Borders is less ambiguous. I thought it was a category about demonstrations.

Merge Per above. Avoids small cat and is a clearer name.

(voted above) I could go along with that as an alternative to my suggestion above. This is essentially a historic category from before the union of the crowns in 1603.

I'd like to retract the nomination / also support the distinction now - good point by Dimadick, not sure why I didn't get the distinction right away. I though the 2 categories were created separately in error. --

Rename as nominated or merge to
Category:Social groups of Bihar. Rationale for merging: we don't have any other Indian social group categories for a region within a state so we might merge these to state level as well.
Marcocapelle (

I'd be happy with a merge. I suspect the category's existence may have something to do with a long-running campaign for Mithila to become a state in its own right (on linguistic grounds). But we can deal with that if/when it happens. -

Nominator's rationale:WP:NONDEF to each film and causes category clutter. A bad idea to start adding categories to every festival a film may have been screened at. LugnutsPrecious bodily fluids 18:01, 28 January 2017 (UTC)reply
Delete per Lugnuts. If it wins a major award like the Palme d'Or, categories already exist for this per
Category:Palme d'Or winners, but just playing a festival engagement is non-defining.
Betty Logan (

Delete per above. A simple screening is non-defining, many films get screened on numerous festivals.

Nominator's rationale:delete as subjective and non-defining. The category is supposed to contain Christian groups believing that a purer form of Christianity should be restored using the
early church as a model, but for most articles it's far from obvious why they should be in this category. (Note, this category should not be confused with
Category:Restoration Movement.)

Let's take an example,
Jehovah's Witnesses. Where can we find that Jehova's Witnesses believe that a purer form of Christianity should be restored using the
early church as a model? Let alone that this characteristic is defining...

Comment While I would not oppose deletion (we have far too many categories on silly concepts involving
Christianity), the main article
Restorationism provides sourced definitions of the concept and a historical development from the
Middle Ages onwards. Calls for Restorationism/Primitivism by the
Lollards, the
Hussites, the
Brethren of the Common Life,
Huldrych Zwingli,
John Calvin, the
Puritans, and a who-is-who of
new religious movements from the 19th century. In most cases, they do not seem to explicitly model themselves on Early Christians. They provide contradictory definitions of "primitive" Christianity and then base themselves on their favorite definition.
