Category:Hibryds by AlarkiusJay[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: speedily moved to User:AlarkiusJay/sandbox, as it was evidently created in category space in error. – Fayenatic London 21:44, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[]
Nominator's rationale: Novelty category about a book the page-creator wrote. No obvious purpose as a regular category, user category, or Wikipedia-project category. Created by a new user, recommend text be copied to his user-space or emailed to him and the category be deleted. Arguably qualifies as WP:G11/advertising but I'm trying not to be WP:BITEY here. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 21:32, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[]

The result of the discussion was: merge. Good Ol’factory (talk) 08:53, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[]
Propose merging:
Nominator's rationale: merge these are two almost empty category layers except they largely duplicate the tree of buildings and structures. This is a follow-up on this and this similar earlier discussions. @William Allen Simpson, Justus Nussbaum, and RevelationDirect: pinging contributors to earlier discussions.

Ballot proposals by year and state[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: merge. Good Ol’factory (talk) 08:53, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[]
more nominated categories
Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, just one, two or three articles in each of these categories and they are not part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme. This is follow-up on this earlier nomination. This nomination excludes California, Colorado and a few other states that have a larger amount of ballot measures. They may be added to the nomination after all if there is a need for more consistency. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:23, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[]

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Planets of the Gliese 581 system. Good Ol’factory (talk) 08:48, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[]

Nominator's rationale: More one-page "campaign" categories, WP:SMALLCAT, like Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2021_January_4#Category:Operations_Near_Cache_River,_Arkansas. I have listed the contents on the parent page Category:Campaigns of the Western Theater of the American Civil War. – Fayenatic London 11:31, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[]

Also nominating the following related and similar categories:

Nominator's rationale: Following the consensus to delete Category:Billboard Hot Country Songs number-one singles last month and some traction gained regarding such categorization in a now-archived discussion at WT:CHARTS a few months earlier, I think we can begin deleting the overblown categorization of songs reaching number one on any of these genre charts. Your reason(s) for the proposed deletion. Songs are not defined by this achievement any more than a song peaking at #2 is defined by that achievement. Plus many of the more popular titles end up being categorized in multitude of similar categories. "Hello (Adele song)" alone is categorized in 31 different #1 song categories, including 5 of the above. The scheme needs to be parsed down or eliminated altogether (as was decided by consensus for number-one albums years ago through Cfd discussions such as this one and others).

Category:Recipients of the Order of Nasr[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. Good Ol’factory (talk) 08:43, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD, WP:SMALLCAT)
The Order of Nasr is an Iranian award that is given out for military logistics. All but one—1—of the articles lists the award in the infobox but nowhwere in the body so the award does not seem generally defining. (I was contemplating creating a sibling to Category:Logistics personnel of the United States military but only 2 of these articles even mention logistics—2, 3—so the original intent of the award may differ from the actual usage.) The recipients are already listified right here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:02, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[]

Category:Dames of the Order of Louise[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. Good Ol’factory (talk) 08:42, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OVERLAPCAT and WP:OCAWARD)
This category has all our favorite Prussian princesses including Princess Alexandrine of Prussia (1803–1892), Princess Alexandrine of Prussia (1842–1906) and Princess Alexandrine of Prussia (1915–1980). Being a Prussian princess is absolutely defining which is why we have Category:Prussian princesses but automatically getting the Order of Louise for the same status (or being a more distant female relative in other royal houses) is non-defining. The current category contents are now fully listified right here in the main article for any readers interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:02, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[]
