On second thought, restating my earlier contribution reflecting Marcocapelle's remarks
. (non-admin closure) House Blaster ( talk · he/him) 04:24, 14 April 2024 (UTC) - Nominator's rationale: WP:NONDEF. It's also basically nonsense. These are the writing systems used to write the schedule 8 languages of India, but they're mostly just conventional scripts, not "Official". PepperBeast (talk) 14:05, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
Keep on administrative grounds.Note for context A recent nomination of the corresponding article ended with no consensus (though the article has since been moved to a more concise title). Pertinent points appear in that discussion.Participants in this discussion ought to read through that discussion for context. In any event, the article survived and the category is no less justifiable than the article.Largoplazo ( talk) 16:04, 6 April 2024 (UTC)- Delete, not a defining characteristic. The fact that there is an article is not a relevant argument, not for every article there is also a category. Marcocapelle ( talk) 16:24, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Category:Educational institutes established in 1927 is a category redirect, not a category, so I'm not sure if it warrants deletion. Its target category,

. (non-admin closure) House Blaster ( talk · he/him) 04:24, 14 April 2024 (UTC) - Nominator's rationale: WP:NONDEF. It's also basically nonsense. These are the writing systems used to write the schedule 8 languages of India, but they're mostly just conventional scripts, not "Official". PepperBeast (talk) 14:05, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
Keep on administrative grounds.Note for context A recent nomination of the corresponding article ended with no consensus (though the article has since been moved to a more concise title). Pertinent points appear in that discussion.Participants in this discussion ought to read through that discussion for context. In any event, the article survived and the category is no less justifiable than the article.Largoplazo ( talk) 16:04, 6 April 2024 (UTC)- Delete, not a defining characteristic. The fact that there is an article is not a relevant argument, not for every article there is also a category. Marcocapelle ( talk) 16:24, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

- Delete, again a whole tree for a single article. Marcocapelle ( talk) 05:48, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
- Comment
Category:Educational institutes established in 1927 is a category redirect, not a category, so I'm not sure if it warrants deletion. Its target category,
Category:Educational institutions established in 1927, isn't tagged for consideration here.

Educational institutes established in 1927, because it seems unlikely to be used, and it was made by a problematic editor. But I don't feel that strongly about it.

- Category:Free sex delete, no upmerge needed
- Category:Free sex activists delete, no upmerge needed
- The concept seems to be undefined except by inference from the supercats. The stated {{ catmain}}, Free sex, is a dab. Yhe cats were created in 2012 by Almust (locked 2013) — I surmise in order to to add Category:Free sex activists to article Kim Iryeop. All articles and cats seem to be in relevant supercats already, so no upmerges needed. jnestorius( talk) 01:03, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
