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

Nominator's rationale: I find that an entire category for only two cases which apply a EU Law principle is a bit too much. In addition to that the articles in question already mention the principle of direct effect in the article themselves.

Comment: actually, there are currently three articles in the category. Can more articles be added to it?

Comment: @
Apokrif: the reason the Van Gend en Loos v Nederlandse Administratie der Belastingen case is even mentioned is because that case establishes the actual principle. however if you observe its mirror
Primacy of European Union law doesn't create a whole different category for supremacy principle. Its more of a principle and legal framework. Its as if I created a whole category for the notion of supremacy of the supreme court.
Move articles to
Category:Cases on European law, then delete. The cases will no doubt be cited in the main article. Ultimately the issue here is SMALL CAT.

Nominator's rationale: Renominating after a
failed 2014 CfD. This category was intended, per the creator's contesting of a C1 deletion on the talk page, to be a signall [sic] to those editors who have completed all 7 missions of the interactive guided tour. However, it doesn't seem to have actually served that purpose since
Special:Diff/579292541 was made in 2013, and is instead tracking people who completed the Wikipedia adventure before that edit, as well as people who chose to broadcast the fact that they have completed the Wikipedia adventure, which is even less useful to track (and I agree with the original 2014 nomination about the lack of collaborative merit even if it were completely populated).

Comment - I dunno. Do those subpages of the two editors need to addressed first?. If this is something that does need addressing to finish off the noted deprecation, shouldn't that be done first, to empty this cat, before deleting it? - jc37 16:57, 21 September 2021 (UTC)reply
Of the four entries in this category, two have already been fixed (without the category being removed), and a third is in the userspace of someone who hasn't edited since 2018. Fixing the other two pages would not meaningfully finish off the noted deprecation since there are
4,000 uncategorized addOnloadHook-using scripts.
