Nominator's rationale: Category for a long defunct basketball team which contains only the team article, the two arenas in which it appeared, and a 9 article players category.

No one is questioning the "legitmacy" of this category, only whether it is proper for a defunct basketball team (the only one from its long-defunct league, by the way) to have a category.
It is questionable whether the stadium articles should even be in the category. Occasionally playing in a certain arena is non-defining. Besides, does this defunct team category have a "realistic potential for growth" as defined by
WP:SMALLCAT?--

Keep -- despite its small size. If it were not for two other articles, I might have suggested combining into the players category. I can see a lot of merit in doing that, but it would be necessary to find a way of having their coach and arena in a players category, which would be an innovation.

Nominator's rationale: Just an unnecessary container for three subcategories of
Category:Norse mythology. Basically no opportunity for expansion. There are no other parent cats nor does it fit within an established category tree. Upmerge contents.

*Oppose, I think the category is justified. It can't be the number of possible expansions that determines whether a category is valid.--

WP:SMALLCAT. There's no point to the existence of this category. It just groups together three categories. All that does is require an extra click for anyone navigating through the category tree. It doesn't even add useful parents to the subcategories.
