NEW NOMINATIONS

[edit]

Category:Amateur association football in Scotland

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Aligns with the used name of the code "football" in Scotland (Category:Football in Scotland). FastCube (talk) 03:13, 5 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Hong Kong jazz guitarists

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Too narrow; could not find any more Hong Kong jazz guitarists. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 02:21, 5 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Polars (cataclysmic variable stars)

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Unlike the term polar, which is ambiguous, polars (with an s) is not because it is used as an adjective in every other scenario and therefore wouldn't be pluralized. In fact, this cat is the only one that has "polars" in the name.

If this CFD fails, it should be speedy renamed to Polars (stars) anyway per C2D. Shocksingularity (talk) 01:03, 5 October 2026 (UTC)reply


October 4

[edit]

Category:Catholicism in television

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:36, 27 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, GoldRomean (talk) 22:48, 4 October 2026 (UTC)reply
Merge but soft redirect to Category:Television shows about Catholicism as likely alternative search term for that category. Shocksingularity (talk) 01:05, 5 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Emigrants from Austria-Hungary to Yugoslavia

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: This is an incoherent category name, because Austria-Hungary was a country that ceased to exist as a prerequisite for the first iteration of Yugoslavia to exist. In other words, they were not contemporaneous, nobody could actually have emigrated from one to the other. It seems to include a handful of people who were born in the territory of Hungary during the time of Austria-Hungary and later lived in Yugoslavia. They're are already largely categorized as Serbs in Austria-Hungary and similar, so this weird category serves no obvious purpose. --Joy (talk) 09:37, 4 October 2026 (UTC)reply
Support delete as per nominator's rationale.--Zoupan 19:12, 4 October 2026 (UTC)reply
But, Austria-Hungary existed until 1918 and Yugoslavia existed from 1918, as Joy noted. The articles were thus wrongly categorized, which has been taken care of. It's a no-brainer, really.--Zoupan 00:14, 5 October 2026 (UTC)reply
Selective merge into time-period appropriate subcats (Category:Austrian emigrants, Category:Hungarian emigrants, Category:Immigrants to Yugoslavia, and Category:Hungarian emigrants to Slovenia)
Slovenia is formerly part of Yugoslavia, which is why I included that cat. Shocksingularity (talk) 01:13, 5 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Health fraud products

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Change to fit proper grammar. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:25, 4 October 2026 (UTC)reply

October 3

[edit]

Category:Archives established in the 6th century

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. Isolated category there's really no need to have a 6th century category for just two pages SMasonGarrison 20:27, 3 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Actresses from Rajahmundry

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: To reflect recent renaming of Rajahmundry to Rajamahendravaram Iamcarbonmatter ♥ xoxo ✦ 11:31, 3 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Actors from Rajahmundry

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: To reflect recent renaming of Rajahmundry to Rajamahendravaram Iamcarbonmatter ♥ xoxo ✦ 11:31, 3 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Male actors from Rajahmundry

Nominator's rationale: To reflect recent renaming of Rajahmundry to Rajamahendravaram Iamcarbonmatter ♥ xoxo ✦ 11:30, 3 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Latter Day Saint belief and doctrine

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: merge, for consistency with article space, Latter-day Saint belief redirects to Mormonism. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:55, 3 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Latter Day Saint concepts of the afterlife

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: rename, for brevity, and aligning with Category:Afterlife in Christianity. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:47, 3 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Disney core universe characters

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: More accurate name given the characters included in the category. "Disney core universe" is not well-defined given how the company also sees Disney Princesses and the other feature films as their core properties. Go D. Usopp (talk) 03:51, 3 October 2026 (UTC)reply


South Downs artists

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Would be in line with Category:English artists by county. Note that there are no other categories related to either of these geographical locations though. 1234qwer1234qwer4 19:01, 24 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Corendon Kinheim players

Category:Trichy railway division

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Opposed Speedy nomination. The main article Tiruchirappalli railway division has never been at Trichy railway division, nor has a Requested Move for the page been initiated to take it there. Citations in the railway division article vary between Trichy, Tiruchirappalli and Tiruchchirappalli. All other categories within Category:Tiruchirappalli use this spelling. – Fayenatic London 14:59, 31 August 2026 (UTC)reply

October 2

[edit]

Category:Diamond merchants

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: No functional difference between categories, and I have already moved the only two pages that were in this one to that one. It might make sense to include a separate category for companies rather than individuals. Qualiesin (talk) 21:10, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Establishments in the Falkland Islands by year

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Narrow and sparsely populated categories WP:NARROW and WP:OCYEAR. The merge targets maintain the larger establishments and timeline navigation trees. Boots the Blackfoot Ferret 19:47, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply
@Blackfootferret: Territories is miscapitalized in all the targets for "dependent territories of the United Kingdom". –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 23:33, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:German Jewish military personnel of World War II

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: To reflect renaming of the related article. McPhail (talk) 16:52, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Films about social realism

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: delete or rename, maybe this is a proper genre, in that case rename, but it is certainly not a topic, "about" does not make sense. The category looks like a case of WP:OR. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:26, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

19th-century establishments in Trinidad and Tobago

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Narrow and sparsely populated categories per WP:NARROW and WP:OCYEAR. Merging to the targets preserves the establishments and timeline navigation trees. Boots the Blackfoot Ferret 15:26, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Latter Day Saint terms

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: manually merge, a "term" is not a defining characteristic. We normally do not have terms categories, we do have terminology categories if there are articles about terminology. But the articles in this category are not articles about terminology as a subject, they rather are articles about subjects in Latter Day Saints. Move articles to the root category if they aren't already somewhere else in the Latter Day Saints tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:06, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Palaeontologists from Northern Ireland

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Only 1 entry. LibStar (talk) 06:42, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Companies listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Exchange changed from this old name in 2000, thereafter using "JSE Securities Exchange". Then, in 2005, it switched to "JSE Limited". So, simply using JSE would be most appropriate. Husskeyy (talk) 06:37, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Threads (social network) userboxes

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Too narrow, only has one userbox in it. Merge to the parent category (apologies if any of this is wrong). ⚙ Crash >> Organhaver ( it / he | talk to me, maybe? ) 04:28, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Deserts of Bulgaria

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Redundant category layer Arctic Circle System (talk) 03:16, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Deserts of Lithuania and Russia

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Redundant category layer Arctic Circle System (talk) 03:14, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Clans based in South Jeolla Province

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: rename, the territory of former South Jeolla Province is now part of Jeonnam-Gwangju. Marcocapelle (talk) 00:21, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:History of South Jeolla Province

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: merge, South Jeolla is a former province, so everything is history. There is no need for two separate categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 00:18, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

October 1

[edit]

Category:Frontier League userboxes

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: As of today, the Frontier League has changed its name to the National Association of Professional Baseball. With two new teams joining, I took the initiative to create a new National Association category for such userboxes; however, a certain editor seems to find my moves "disruptive" and says I should do a CfD instead. So, although I was reluctant to do so because of the FL team userboxes of teams which folded before the NA rebrand, I am starting this discussion for a category merge, in the hopes that we can have peace. Tom Danson (talk) 19:11, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Governors of Cartagena, Colombia

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Empty category inexplicably redirected. There is no established practice in redirecting city categories to province categories. This should have been deleted as empty. ✗plicit 14:23, 3 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, GoldRomean (talk) 18:56, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply
  • Delete per nom. There should be a high bar of need for redirects. We don't need thousands of such redirect shortcuts. If someone creates a governor article, they can easily place it in Colombian governors and also easily diffuse it to subcats for which Wikipedia actually has enough existing articles. Οἶδα (talk) 21:37, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Younger sons of British peers

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Looks WP:NONDEFINING, being a younger son or a wive of a younger son doesn't confer anything special as far as I know. Possibly could be upmerged to Category:Children of British peers and peeresses. Brandmeister talk 18:53, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Premier Volleyball League men's division teams

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Spikers' Turf and the PVL men's division are in the same lineage and have shared history, so putting them into a single unified category may be a better option. MarcusAbacus (talk) 18:29, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Disestablishments in Mauritius

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Narrow categories per WP:NARROW and WP:OCYEAR. The merge targets maintain the existing disestablishments and timeline trees. Boots the Blackfoot Ferret 17:21, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

12th-century establishments in Scotland

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Narrow categories per WP:NARROWCAT and WP:OCYEAR; not helpful for navigation. The merge targets to the decades of establishments in Scotland and the year establishments in Europe maintain the establishments category tree while the year in Scotland targets maintain the timeline. Boots the Blackfoot Ferret 14:52, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Computation oracles

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: To be eponym with main article, Oracle machine; also notice there ins't a redirect Computation oracle. fgnievinski (talk) 14:07, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply
Speedy rename per C2D. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:50, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Social media influencers subcategories

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Six categories with five patterns. Maybe this could at least partly be made more consistent. "Accounts" seems particularly weird, and "creators" and "content creators" could probably be harmonised. 1234qwer1234qwer4 01:41, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

[edit]

Category:Films about psychopaths and sociopaths

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Follow-up to Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2026 September 17#Category:Found footage films about psychopaths and sociopaths. These cats were created by the same user who created that one. As I stated there, apparently it wasn't filled with great care. Even ignoring that, I see a few issues. "sociopaths" and "sociopathy" are not present in the category system outside of these cats. The term redirects to Psychopathy#Sociopathy, and is considered outdated and overlapping with Psychopathy or Antisocial personality disorder.
Psychopathy is also not significantly present in the category system outside of these and Category:Psychopathy, Category:Psychopathy writers, Category:Psychopathy scales, Category:Books about psychopathy and Category:Psychopathy self-report inventories. So what determines inclusion here? Certainly there isn't a consistent diagnosis in fiction that we can realistically contain these categories to. I see these categories basically being used as "Films about crazy people". And probably most of the time being used in a way that overlaps with Films about murderers, Serial killer films and Films about torture. And with "sociopath" in the title, I can also see it being used to overlap with Films about borderline personality disorder and films with characters vaguely exhibiting antisocial behavior or narcissism. Or even overlapping as far as Films about obsessive–compulsive disorder or for films about paranoid types. That seems problematic and ultimately not a good categorization. What do we think? Οἶδα (talk) 20:27, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Delete The same original research issues that led to the deletion of Category:Fictional characters with antisocial personality disorder at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2018_January_3#Category:Fictional_characters_with_antisocial_personality_disorder. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 21:45, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
I also notice Category:Films about psychopaths was deleted at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2022 April 30#Category:Films about psychopaths, where Marcocapelle made the same points. As alluded to there, other precedent supposedly exists.
So I went looking:
Οἶδα (talk) 18:27, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply
Speedy delete per G4, then. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 22:28, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:U.S. road articles needing KML

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Expand unclear abbreviation. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 20:11, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Oppose because the abbreviation is commonly used and also used for Category:Canada road transport articles without KML and Category:Australia road articles without KML. X5163x (talk) 20:26, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Oppose—KML is a standard abbreviation. Imzadi 1979 → 00:16, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply
Oppose due to widespread use of abbreviation, like the BBC. --Minoa (talk) 14:52, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

1st-millenium establishments in Armenia

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Sparsely populated categories per WP:OCYEAR. Boots the Blackfoot Ferret 18:51, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Support per nom. Note that the 10th century is part of the 1st millennium (not BC). X5163x (talk) 20:01, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
  • Merge per nom, but I think Armenia is considered a borderline country between Europe and Asia, together with Azerbaijan, Georgia and Cyprus. If that is the case it should be a triple merge instead of a dual merge. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:34, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Stage plays directed by Quentin Tarantino

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Plays have been written by Quentin Tarantino, irrelevant whether he directed them as well. Also in line with standard naming conventions for playwrights. Blethering Scot 17:33, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Support: I agree with the naming change and the rationale behind it. CANthony0125 (talk) 17:35, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
To confirm I propose :Propose deleting Category:Stage plays directed by Quentin Tarantino and Propose renaming Category:Stage plays written by Quentin Tarantino to Category:Plays by Quentin Tarantino. No need for the two catergories for same articles and rename is standard naming convention.Blethering Scot 17:40, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
I completely support that proposition. CANthony0125 (talk) 17:45, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Assuming this is okay Blethering Scot, I would like to revert your tagging of Category:Stage plays written by Quentin Tarantino because that should be speedy renamed in alignment with other categories of Category:Plays by American writers. Οἶδα (talk) 19:33, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Nevermind. I now realise CANthony0125 created the category. With their support, we should be allowed to Speedy delete per G7 and Speedy rename per WP:C2E. Οἶδα (talk) 19:42, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Speedy both per my comment above. We do not categorize plays by director. The only such cat I can find is the isolated Category:Plays originally directed by Garson Kanin, which should be deleted. Οἶδα (talk) 21:15, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply
The missing header has been added. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:31, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Aramaicists

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Aramaists is the most common English term for scholars specializing in Aramaic studies. (See also on Ngram.) The word Aramaist is formed like Hebraist and Arabist, for which we have Category:Hebraists and Category:Arabists, not Category:Hebraicists nor Category:Arabicists.

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: speedy delete. Staraction (talk · contribs) 07:32, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Subcategories of Category:U.S. road articles needing KML

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: This category and all of its subcategories are empty. New articles in this category can be directly added to the parent category. X5163x (talk) 23:39, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Delete all as unlikely to be used much in the future. Is "KML" supposed to be the Keyhole Markup Language? –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 12:02, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Yes, according to Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Roads/Maps task force. X5163x (talk) 20:06, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2026_September_30#Category:U.S._road_articles_needing_KML to rename. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 20:13, 30 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Oppose—these are supposed to be maintenance categories for each task force under the project. The banner template is supposed to categorize an article lacking a KML file on Wikipedia, and it's supposed to categorize by the task forces. As maintenance categories, they may be empty at any given time, but that doesn't mean they aren't useful. Imzadi 1979 → 00:17, 1 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Former cities

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: It is not helpful to segregate this category system into "cities" and "towns". –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 07:04, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply
  • Merge cities, towns and villages all three. This threefold distinction is subjective in many countries and former countries. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:05, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply
    Added to nomination. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 23:16, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply
  • Merge The split between these three is different in different jurisdictions. Plus some populated places change status over time. There are other names besides these three appliee to populated places in some jurisdictions. In the end this boils down to categorization by shared name not shared trait. I am also not sure it is always easy to decide which designations of populated places in some non-English-speaking countries are equivalrnt to which designations in English.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:24, 2 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Ruined cities

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Created two years ago, still barely populated. Covered by the more specific cats at Category:Ruins . Gotitbro (talk) 06:32, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Created by a now blocked editor, blocked for creating inappropriate categories despite repeated warnings . Gotitbro (talk) 06:34, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Keep and populate I don't think this matches any existing subcategory of Category:Ruins. It should be very easy to search the subcategories for Middle Eastern countries, in particular. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:56, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Merge to subcategories of Category:Former populated places as completely overlapping. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:59, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Actually, no, that doesn't quite match, either, since that could include former polities like East Berlin that are now part of a larger city. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 07:01, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Green bans

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: per WP:NONDEFINING and the spirit of WP:C1, an empty category
In Australia, the Builders Labourers Federation used to launch Green ban work stoppages to stop construction projects that created environmental or social harm. This category would be fine if it contained articles specifically about green bans, but it doesn't contain a single one. Instead it has articles about buildings or towns that were the site of a green ban protest at some point in the 1970s, like the Bellevue Hotel, Brisbane or Redfern, New South Wales. - RevelationDirect (talk) 01:18, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Formula One tyre suppliers

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: per WP:TRIVIALCAT, WP:NONDEFINING, and the spirit of WP:PERFCAT
This category would be fine if it contained articles about boutique firms that make tires/tyres specifically for Formula One. Instead it has articles about major companies that have lots of customers, like Michelin and Goodyear. - RevelationDirect (talk) 01:18, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Páramo flora

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Rename to follow the established pattern – "flora of x" – for flora categories, including the parent category Category:Flora of the Andes. Tom Radulovich (talk) 23:33, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Regionally Important Geological/Geomorphological Sites (RIGS)

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Per MOS:/ and the unnecessary abbreviation. Rename child categories as well. Gjs238 (talk) 22:09, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Films based on Sino-Indian wars and conflicts

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: WP:OVERLAPCAT duplicating the pre-existing Category:Sino-Indian War films. Both films in this category are already in that category. Created by a sockpuppet. Οἶδα (talk) 21:48, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply

1110s establishments in England

Category:Regionally Important Geological / Geomorphological Sites (RIGS) in Cumbria

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: As per scheme used in Category:Regionally Important Geological/Geomorphological Sites (RIGS), erroneous duplication of Category:Regionally Important Geological/Geomorphological Sites (RIGS) in Cumbria. Gjs238 (talk) 12:33, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Rename to Category:Regionally important geological and geomorphological sites in Cumbria per MOS:/ and the unnecessary abbreviation. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:19, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Zamindaris

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Conflates zamindars, individual aristocrats, with their estates, or zamindaris. "Estate" is redundant in this case. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:47, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Zamindars of Madhepura

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Two articles about people from a district that is in present-day Bihar. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:44, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:12th-century Welsh historians

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Only 1 entry. LibStar (talk) 03:27, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Category:Zamindars of Bengal

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: "Zamindars of Bengal" was created in June, and is redundant to "Bengali zamindars" created in 2009. Both categories contain articles on the feudal lords and on the estates, and neither title presently disambiguates bio articles from estate articles. ~2026-52288-72 (talk) 02:39, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Reverse merge matching main article title, Zamindars of Bengal. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:34, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Actually, merge both to Category:Zamindaris of Bengal because the contents are overwhelmingly about estates, not individuals. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:37, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Actually, make that Category:Zamindars and zamidaris of Bengal. Another nomination is upcoming. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:40, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
