- The result of the discussion was: Delete * Pppery * it has begun... 18:42, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Only two pages, which is not even correctly titled; the town is named Westworth Village, Texas. Both pages are already in subcategories of Category:Tarrant County, Texas. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 20:42, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Family of Saul to Category:House of Saul
- Nominator's rationale: merge, overlapping scope. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:18, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Category:Persian words similar to other languages
edit- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Lists of loanwords of Persian origin. Clear consensus for a change; WP:BARTENDER consensus for a rename as the least change option. I will move List of French loanwords in Persian to Category:Persian language as an individual editor action. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 15:23, 2 August 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Unclear scope; seems to be unique in its kind. Three of these could be put in a Category:Lists of loanwords of Persian origin subcategory of Category:Lists of loanwords, but that would seem like unnecessarily fine subcategorisation to me. 1234qwer1234qwer4 14:35, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- If not kept then merge, the articles should remain in the tree of Category:Persian language somehow. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:19, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Rename to Category:Lists of loanwords of Persian origin, which reflects all of the actual contents. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 20:45, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- ...not List of French loanwords in Persian (which, incidentally, does not seem to be adequately sourced). 1234qwer1234qwer4 00:55, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- So in this case List of French loanwords in Persian should be moved to Category:Persian language. It is still an option. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:33, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- ...not List of French loanwords in Persian (which, incidentally, does not seem to be adequately sourced). 1234qwer1234qwer4 00:55, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- Rename to Category:Lists of loanwords of Persian origin per LaundryPizza. NLeeuw (talk) 18:55, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Delete * Pppery * it has begun... 18:42, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Contains a single page, which is a redirect to a section that does not even host a list. 1234qwer1234qwer4 14:31, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Category:People educated at Wesley Girls' Senior High School
edit- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was: rename. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 15:21, 2 August 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: This renaming is in line with best practices within the Alumni system by secondary schools in Ghana category, which categorises alumni by either School Name Alumni (e.g., Kumasi Academy alumni) or Alumni of School Name (e.g., Alumni of Adisadel College). I believe this would make searching for it easy and can be added to more articles easily. Ampimd (talk) 12:46, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Normally we don't categorize people by high school, do we? Marcocapelle (talk) 17:21, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, we do. See Category:Alumni by secondary school. Jahaza (talk) 16:36, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

edit- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 15:21, 2 August 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Three is a small and common number of coaches to have for any tennis player. I don't think this player needs a category for her coaches - not just yet. Omnis Scientia (talk) 12:35, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 15:21, 2 August 2025 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Political parties disestablished in 1790 to Category:Political parties disestablished in the 1790s and Category:Organizations disestablished in 1790
- Propose merging Category:Political parties disestablished in 1792 to Category:Political parties disestablished in the 1790s and Category:Organizations disestablished in 1792
- Propose merging Category:Political parties disestablished in 1793 to Category:Political parties disestablished in the 1790s and Category:Organizations disestablished in 1793
- Propose merging Category:Political parties disestablished in 1794 to Category:Political parties disestablished in the 1790s and Category:Organizations disestablished in 1794
- Propose merging Category:Political parties disestablished in 1795 to Category:Political parties disestablished in the 1790s and Category:Organizations disestablished in 1795
- Propose merging Category:Political parties disestablished in 1799 to Category:Political parties disestablished in the 1790s and Category:Organizations disestablished in 1799
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCYEAR, merge to the decade, since there are only 1 to 3 pages in each category. – numbermaniac 08:01, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:39, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose. Small categories are useful for navigation and "organizations" is not even a subcategory of politics. You are merely making the articles difficult to locate. Dimadick (talk) 04:05, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- They aren't useful for navigation at all. It makes it merely a big hassle to navigate from one article to related articles because you need to get up and down in the category tree all the time. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:37, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
"organizations" is not even a subcategory of politics
- it's the reverse; the political parties are subcategories of "organizations". You can see this at the bottom of each of these pages. I also fail to see how this aids navigation; instead of going to the 1790s category and seeing all the pages in front of you, you instead have to open 6 separate categories just to find the same set of pages. – numbermaniac 15:05, 20 July 2025 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. WP:SMALLCAT was deprecated by the community a long time ago. There is a working consensus on following WP:MFN. There is no need for rehashing old discussions, and the Oppose !vote lacks grounds. NLeeuw (talk) 18:48, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Only 1 entry. LibStar (talk) 06:21, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. The article is about an emigrant rather than an expatriate but there is no such emigrants category, so never mind about that. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:43, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

- Dual merge also to Category:Women guitarists and Category:Women singer-songwriters. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:55, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
