WP:WSS/P. With very few articles to populate the categories, I notified the creator and upmerged the templates, negating the need for these two categories. The categories were recently recreated (without any proposal) but still only contain 2 and 5 articles. The templates should either be upmerged again or outright deleted due to the low number of candidates, but there is no need yet for the categories.

Comment. It contains two pages now. If not kept, it should be merged to the relevant parent categories, rather than deleted.

The result of the discussion was:keep. If OP wishes to pursue this nomination further, they are welcome to renominate while tagging all of the categories (
User:Qwerfjkl/scripts/massCFD can help with that) and presenting a substantive reason for deletion.

Nominator's rationale: Created by a user who was indefinitely blocked for disruptive behavior.
Векочел (

Procedural close. The nominator makes no valid argument for deletion. The editor in question was not evading a ban at the time their account was created; the fact that they were deemed disruptive seven months after they created the category is wholly irrelevant.

Keep/Comment. most of these nominations are not tagged. Further, I don't think this is a good reason to nominate a category. These categories seem defining to me as many first female FOO are described as such in the lead. If not kept, the categories should be merged to the relevant women/female occupation categories.

Nominator's rationale:merge,
Ajmer State only existed for six years, so there is no need for diffusion by century or decade.

Nominator's rationale: delete, "by name" is not diffusing anything. In theory the category should be merged to
Category:Districts of India but the content is already in that target's subcategories.

Delete; agree with Kusma that the concept of pie (as a separate category of food from cake) seems to have no meaning in German cuisine.

Delete. Agreed, there is no such thing as pies in German cuisine, and all three of the entries listed here are cakes, not pies.

The result of the discussion was:Merge the categories but Keep the templates.
* Pppery *it has begun... 00:05, 24 April 2024 (UTC)reply
Nominator's rationale: The templates, {{
1940s-jazz-album-stub}} and {{
2020s-jazz-album-stub}}, were created a year ago without being proposed at
WP:WSS/P. With very few articles to populate the categories, I notified the creator and upmerged the templates, negating the need for these two categories. The categories were recently recreated (without any proposal) but still only contain 2 and 5 articles. The templates should either be upmerged again or outright deleted due to the low number of candidates, but there is no need yet for the categories.

Amend templates so that they upmerge; Delete categories as being insufficiently populated to satisfy
WP:WSS. --

Rename to
Category:Battles involving Bangladesh, The battles in the category are involved
Bengal region and
Bangladesh is created from the a big part of the region. It would be better to rename the category and make specify it for country-wise battle category.
Mehedi Abedin 09:07, 13 April 2024 (UTC)reply
No, that would be highly anachronistic, and some of these battles were in West Bengal. –
FayenaticLondon 09:56, 13 April 2024 (UTC)reply
@
Marcocapelle: it should only be a selective merge to that parent, because many of the articles are already in other subcats of that one, and I'm not sure whether the others belong there. I suggest you watch the category and merge any valid missing items yourself if the rename goes through. –

Nominator's rationale: These categories only have the eponymous article in it and the logo of the college. In theory, upmerge for now, but in reality, delete because the page is already categorized.
