Merge while "Jain studies" are clearly a dinstict thing from Jainism, just as an religious studies field where a subject is approached primarily from a socialogical perspective is distinct from the actual practice of that religion as a set of religious beliefs, Since this at the present acts only to hold the category
Category:Scholars of Jainism, there is no real reason to have this as a seperate category.

Totally Against: You don't change a whole category for ONE article (Bioclimatology) as biometeorology is an article about meteorology. It is more logical to keep
Category:Branches of meteorology and transfer any climatological articles to
Category:Branches of climatology, and then put those two categories as sub-categories of "Category:Branches of atmospheric sciences". This way you keep the proper interwiki links for the former category.

Pierre cb: I can't recall keeping interwiki links every having been a justification to keep a category name in CFD before but I appreciate your new perspective. We have a process for category redirects (
WP:R#CATEGORY) that could potentially maintain the link after a rename if if there was consensus to do so but would have to automatically point to a single target cat in
WP:HOTCAT. -

N.B. I don't want to avoid creating
Category:Branches of atmospheric sciences (read carefully my comment), I am just pointing to a more logical way to create a category tree of Atmospheric sciences specialties which is a set of different branches (atmospheric physics and chemistry, meteorology, climatology) that can have their own categories if needed under that umbrella.
