- The result of the discussion was: Merge * Pppery * it has begun... 16:12, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: The user who created this arbitrarily singled out victims of one ethnicity to reflect the editorial POV of a Sri Lankan newspaper [1] that has been criticized for biased coverage of the topic.[2]. Petextrodon (talk) 18:45, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Delete * Pppery * it has begun... 16:12, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization by opinion or preference of an issue or topic. Not appropriate scope for a category. Paul_012 (talk) 18:10, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Split * Pppery * it has begun... 16:12, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: These two teams are completely unrelated to one another; they did not play in the same "Columbus," in the same league, at the same time or with any of the same players. Having one category for these two teams makes even less sense than it would to have one category for players of the San Diego Padres of the major and minor leagues; at least those teams represented the same city, played in the same ballpark, etc. Dennis C. Abrams (talk) 15:36, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Belgian Shia Muslims to Category:Belgian Muslims
- Nominator's rationale: Only one article and he’s not Shia. Thepharoah17 (talk) 04:41, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Delete * Pppery * it has begun... 16:12, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Only 1 article and he’s already in the Category:Brazilian Muslims and it doesn’t say in his article that he’s Sunni. Thepharoah17 (talk) 03:14, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Delete * Pppery * it has begun... 16:12, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
