Nominator's rationale: This category contains just one (semi-eponymous) article (and has no parent categories) so is performing little/no purpose. DexDor(talk)21:21, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was:administrative close: merge has already been completed. As noted, in most cases it's best to wait for the discussion to be formally closed before implementing it. Good Ol’factory(talk)02:13, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete just because a page uses the term "trachea" in the page is not a good reason to categorize a page. For Instance: What has a thriller movie where the action star crushes someone's trachea got to do with categorization? ; Otherwise Category:Anatomy and subcategories, should cover it. -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 06:11, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge, it's not clear how the two categories are different. Note that there wasn't a Holocaust in Sweden, since Sweden hasn't been occupied by the Nazis in World War II. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:01, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt if this really adds value. About half of the 14 articles can be categorized straight into a century category (or are already categorized so) and for the remainder it doesn't make a lot of difference whether Category:Medieval Ireland has 193 or 200 articles.

Comment -- The preceding period in Irish history is known as "Early Christian". In other places it might be "early Medieval". The problem is with the scope of the target, which needs the splitting out of Category:Early Christian Ireland. One way of doing that might be ALT2, followed by purging out anything pre-1169 into Early Christian, leaving "Medieval" as a container category, which we can eliminate when empty. Sorry, I do not have the time to implement this. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:53, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I could follow what you were saying about using "Medieval" as a container category for two period categories (pre- and post-1169). But I'm not sure what you mean by "which we can eliminate when empty." Marcocapelle (talk) 20:30, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
