*'''Delete''' the ERGS rules say avoid the lowest level intersection. This is especially true of ethnicity categories often applied more as race categories. Unless you can convince me that men like [[Ezekiel Ansah]] who never set foot in the US before college are being excluded from African-American categories I am unconvinced they are anything other than race categories.[[User:Johnpacklambert|John Pack Lambert]] ([[User talk:Johnpacklambert|talk]]) 08:02, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' and make it a sub-category of [[:Category:African-American players of American football]]. Aside from that category, we also have similar categories (e.g., [[:Category:Jewish golfers]], [[:Category:Female bullfighters]]). I know, [[WP:OSE]], but the quarterback position in the NFL has historically (and to this day) had very few AA players. AA QBs, and their rarity, are often discussed by reliable sources, and cited as an example of systemic racism. When an individual AA QB is written about in the media, it's often noted that they are one of the few AA QBs. I think in this case, AA QB is a notable sub-category of AA football players, per RSes. For example: [https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2018/09/18/texas-superintendent-regrets-disparaging-deshaun-watson-on-basis-of-being-a-black-qb/?utm_term=.10057af24d95] [http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/24761447/school-head-resigns-comment-black-quarterbacks] [https://www.si.com/nfl/list-first-black-starting-quarterback-every-team] [https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2018/09/25/first-black-starting-qb-reflects-on-changes-in-game-society/37930265/] [[User:Levivich|Levivich]] ([[User talk:Levivich|talk]]) 21:28, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
* '''Delete and listify'''. Per [[WP:OCEGRS]], there needs to be potential for a substantial article (not just a list) for the topic to be made an ethnic-based subcategory.

*'''Merge''' per nom. [[User:Laurel Lodged|Laurel Lodged]] ([[User talk:Laurel Lodged|talk]]) 20:36, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
*'''Oppose'''. [[WP:SMALLCAT]] does not apply to all categories which are ''currently'' small. It is for cats which ''"by their very definition, will never have more than a few members, unless such categories are part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme"''.
:I checked the first five categories nominated. All one of those has a subcat for churches of RC denomination. Whatever your intention here, the effect of this merger is that non-Catholic churches in those cities will not be categorised as churches within the same area. That is not an NPOV outcome. (If your aim was to promote the hardline Catholic view that non-Catholic churches are not "real" churches, this would be a good way of doing it).
:This whole process of trying to rip out layers of container categories is fundamentally mistaken, because it pointlessly disrupts the consistency of the category system. That makes it harder to maintain and to navigate.
:By removing this layer from cities where we do already have a reasonable number of articles per city, a reader looking at the set of churches-by-city categories would get the false impression that there are few or no articles on churches in that city.
:The category system is a directional lattice based on consistency. Removing intermediate parts of that lattice because the article structure is underdeveloped undermines one of the pillars of that consistency principle, with no advantage to readers or editors. It is a pointless, disruptive make-work, both now and in the future when those categories are needed.

:* My aim is certainly not to promote the hardline Catholic view that non-Catholic churches are not real churches, this particular impact occurs in Italy because France happens to be a more than 90% Catholic country.

*'''Merge Most/Neutral on Lille, Nice, Reims, and Versailles''' 12 of the 16 categories have ''no'' non-Catholic churches so it's hard to see what the categories provide. [[User:RevelationDirect|RevelationDirect]] ([[User talk:RevelationDirect|talk]]) 19:19, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
*'''Merge''' categories should be based on articles we have, not some mythic hope for future articles. The fact is most non-Catholic Church buildings are not notable, so the population of these categories seems unlikely.[[User:Johnpacklambert|John Pack Lambert]] ([[User talk:Johnpacklambert|talk]]) 19:38, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
