- The result of the discussion was: merge as nominated and to Category:Clubhouses in West Virginia. Good Ol’factory (talk) 03:06, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING ( WP:SMALLCAT)
- No conceptual objection to this category for fraternal lodges of the
Knights of Pythias but it only contains 2 articles with little growth potential. This is not "part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme" as there are no other state subcategories and, with only 35 articles in the USA, expanding this state level breakdown would create a whole anemic category tree. Both articles are already under multiple West Virginia categories so only the single merge target is needed. -

- There are only 2 articles in the fire department category and grouping them by county is not really meaningful and there are no other county breakdowns anywhere under Category:Fire departments of the United States. The only thing under the Christianity category is Category:Churches in Westchester County, New York which is already well categorized under both the county and Christianity. There are no other county level breakdowns under Category:Christianity in New York (state).

- No conceptual objection to this category for fraternal lodges of the
Knights of Pythias but it only contains 2 articles with little growth potential. This is not "part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme" as there are no other state subcategories and, with only 35 articles in the USA, expanding this state level breakdown would create a whole anemic category tree. Both articles are already under multiple West Virginia categories so only the single merge target is needed. -

- I agree that a standalone category is not warranted, but what about renaming and repurposing it as something like ‹The
template
Category link is being
considered for merging.›
Category:Fraternal orders in West Virginia and grouping it with the other articles about fraternal orders like the Masons in the state?--

- There is not even a Category:Fraternal orders in the United States yet. If we would go that direction I would rather expect a set category Category:Fraternal orders based in the United States. Marcocapelle ( talk) 17:28, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
- @ Namiba: We have Category:Clubhouses in West Virginia which in practice serves almost the same function since most of these articles are about lodges that had a dedicated building. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 23:42, 16 June 2021 (UTC)

- Propose Upmerging Category:Fire departments in Westchester County, New York to Category:Fire departments in New York (state)
- Propose Deleting Category:Christianity in Westchester County, New York
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING ( WP:SMALLCAT & WP:OVERLAPCAT, respectively)
- There are only 2 articles in the fire department category and grouping them by county is not really meaningful and there are no other county breakdowns anywhere under Category:Fire departments of the United States. The only thing under the Christianity category is Category:Churches in Westchester County, New York which is already well categorized under both the county and Christianity. There are no other county level breakdowns under Category:Christianity in New York (state). Neither is "part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme". - RevelationDirect ( talk) 00:08, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
