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.
Nominator's rationale: To match the article
Passion of Jesus and category names such as
Category:Crucifixion of Jesus in art. The parent
Category:Passion (Christianity) is not needed, as the article
Passion of Jesus can be manually linked to and from the category, and the rest of the contents are representations in various arts. (Its parent categories and interwiki links may need careful handling; I am willing to undertake this.) –

Note from closer: after having closed the discussion above, a further discussion about these categories started (details see
talk page) leading to a new consensus about undoing the downmerge of the parent category
Category:Passion (Christianity) and instead renaming it, and in addition moving some of the content that was in the child category, insofar not about visual arts, to the recreated parent category.

Nominator's rationale: Since Byzantine Empire was formed on May 330, any previous mention of it is anachronistic.

Support, they called themselves Roman Empire and assigning a starting date in hindsight is therefore a bit arbitrary. Alternative starting years are 337, 395 and 476. But anything before 330 is definitely incorrect.

Nominator's rationale: The name 'Mountaineering magazines' is more inclusive and better covers the content of the magazines included.

It would be ok, but I prefer a single comprehensive category to two smaller ones with very limited numbers of articles. --
