- Nominator's rationale: Non-defining trait and appears to be based on OR/Synth. Additionally, the subcategories are wrong. Non-violent and nonkilling video games can be VERY child non-friendly. -- ferret ( talk) 20:00, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete – per nom. There's no defined standard for a child-friendly video game (ESRB/PEGI/whatever ratings? RSes?) and as such this requires OR. dudhhr talk contribs (he/they) 20:50, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

- Soft redirect, using Template:Category redirect, to Category:Software for children, as this is a somewhat plausible seeming category name that may be searched for, and it would be more helpful to send people towards the more appropriately named existing category than to delete it entirely. silviaASH ( User:BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 16:59, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete This one's at least a little less subjective than "child-friendly" and "non-violent" (though I imagine it still has a significant gray area). Still, it's generally unnecessary to categorize things by what they aren't, when they were never assumed to be that in the first place. Ionmars10 ( talk) 00:29, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

- Most platform games are violent (the enemies are killed when the player jumps on them for example). Also, the article
nonviolent video game exists for a reason, just create
Category:Violent video games. We could also add
Category:Child friendly video games (that would include Super Mario). --

- Delete - not sure such a vague, subjective category is a good idea. At the very least, the creator needs to slow down with its application. I've already found a bunch of poorly applied ones. (Like Arcade soccer games that allow you to check characters onto the ground or into an electric fence. That's decidedly violent.)

- Delete "Nonviolent" is a loaded word and is subject to opinion. As an example, are American Football games violent? Some people might say it is an inherently violent sport that should be banned. Others might say that, since it doesn't involve intent to harm other players, it's fine. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 05:24, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete However, I believe that this purpose can be served better by a reliably sourced List of "non-violent" video games, which may restrict itself to games often described by reliable sources as "non-violent," similar to how such lists as List of video games considered the best or List of controversial video games are handled. It would be inappropriate to handle such information in the form of Category: Best video games, for example. But as a sourced list article, it may have value. silviaASH ( User:BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 16:53, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

Category:Voiceless oral consonants by a specific manner of articulation, and no corresponding ‹The

- I don't see the point of this: as a reader, I find seeing the pair of the voiced and voiceless consonant somewhere close to each other in the same category quite useful.

- Comment -- My friend of Indian descent frequently tells me about how important American missionaries were. Populate if possible. Peterkingiron ( talk) 16:45, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
- Ok, I moved the first article back to the parent Category:American emigrants to India and found one other article there that fits Category:Emigrants from the United States to British India better. It is not quite about a missionary but rather about someone who ultimately converted to Hinduism. Presumably most American missionaries did not stay in India as an immigrant. So this leaves a smallcat that may better be merged to its parent categories. Marcocapelle ( talk) 19:41, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

- Populate David Sassoon ought also tom be in the category. They were Jewish merchants from Baghdad who moved to India. Is this unique? Peterkingiron ( talk) 16:49, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
- Ok, I purged the first article and moved two others (including David Sassoon) from Category:Emigrants from the Ottoman Empire to India to Category:Emigrants from the Ottoman Empire to British India. That leaves the former category empty and leaves the latter category a smallcat. Under these circumstances I would suggest merging it to the parent categories.

It would be inappropriate to handle such information in the form of Category: Best video games, for example.

- Ok, I moved the first article back to the parent Category:American emigrants to India and found one other article there that fits Category:Emigrants from the United States to British India better. It is not quite about a missionary but rather about someone who ultimately converted to Hinduism. Presumably most American missionaries did not stay in India as an immigrant. So this leaves a smallcat that may better be merged to its parent categories. Marcocapelle ( talk) 19:41, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
