Merge to both parents. @
The Nth User: please not that "delete" is a different process from "merge", and simply removes member pages from the category. In this case, the page would be orphaned if the category was deleted. –

Not any more it wouldn't. But you're right, merging is a better proposition - with no prejudice against re-creation if someone writes articles for iron plumbate, potassium plumbate, etc. Note, though, that there are at least three existing articles which could go into this category -
plumbate,
plumbite, and
lead(II,IV) oxide, so keeping the category is not too far-fetched. I also wuldn't be surprised if there are articles relating to plumbate-based ceramics.

@
The Nth User: Plumbite is more commonly known as plumbate(II), so not having it in the plumbates category seems a little odd, although I understand your reasons. Lead oxide was my mistake. In any case, as I said, merging is probably still the best idea, with no prejudice against recreation if any of the other plumbates get articles.

Albums by genre and decade categories

There are over 500 spoken word albums which suggests that decade categories could be readily populated. The existing ones have been created in the last few days and have not been fully populated as yet.

Keep- nothing wrong with
Category:1900s albums. Nothing wrong with splitting 'classical' out. In fact all the classical categories result directly from
the cfd cited in the nom. 'Comedy albums' and 'spoken word albums' should be a separate nom. And there should be an upmerge rather than delete.

Keep -- Before the LP era, (surely starting in 1950s, as nom), recordings of larger works were issues as sets of records in a case. I used to have my mother's set of records of one of the Brahms symphonies conducted by Toscanni. Surely that was the equivalent of an album. It may since have been remastered on to an LP, in which was it might be classified as a 1930s album, having been recorded then, even though the LP had not been invented.

Actually, technically they were albums... it's where the name comes from. It was an analogy for a photo album, which was arranged similarly.

"The result of the discussion was: Keep parent and decade categories." As such, a speedy keep would be a far more appropriate thing to do with the currently nominated categories than a speedy delete.
