KeepMerge. I'm slightly inclined to keep it under small cat. Also I fixed the broken link from the category page

Nominator's rationale: For the same reason
Category:Muslim princely states of India was deleted i.e.
WP:NONDEFINING. Princely states are not categorized by caste in any RS and moreover attribution of castes as such to princely states is most often dubious (also covered by
WP:CASTE sanctions). These cats are also a magnet for various caste-based POVPUSHers and can easily be done without.

Delete I agree, not
WP:CATDEFs, as well as overcategorization. In addition, the names aren't accurate. These are "
Schrödinger cats" 🤣 where we don't know whether a given subject is or isn't a member. At any given time, there are probably languages supported by machine translation but this is unknown to whoever has taken upon themselves assignment to or exclusion from any of these categories. To avoid this, assuming it's undesirable, their names would have to be more like "Languages of Bangladesh that I know to be supported by machine translation". But surely we can't have that either.

Delete. I agree with all three above editors. Additionally: Contributes to category clutter, making relevant category navigation more difficult.
