- The result of the discussion was: merge. ℯxplicit 00:26, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:People from Garden, Michigan to Category:People from Delta County, Michigan
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT. Small one-county community with just 2 entries. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 22:39, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Support This is a very small locality with just 220 residents. Very limited possibility of expansion, does not aid in navigation and and makes sense to upmerge. AusLondonder (talk) 22:47, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
- Support this is what the 'notable people' section on a city/geography article is for; and where the list is long, it is typically instantiated as a list rather than as a category. I'll add a 'notable people' section to the Garden, Michigan article momentarily. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 02:06, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: delete. ℯxplicit 00:26, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Part of a user's self-serving set of categories, templates and drafts. Populated only by his draft article. Speedied multiple times under various names Has been been told more than once not to create new categories for his draft article, and not to use cats in draft articles. Meters (talk) 06:09, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete as it does appear to be self-serving with no apparent usefulness outside of their draft. --TheSandDoctor (talk) 06:17, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete – not a viable category. Oculi (talk) 14:04, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Could an admin warn/block this editor? More categories have been created today for the sandbox article. Oculi (talk) 20:37, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete -- If spelt right, this would be a POV category. Clearly useless. Peterkingiron (talk) 20:32, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete 1. Blank, and 2. Most likely a POV category. I would delete right now. —JJBers 15:16, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

Drawings
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. ℯxplicit 00:26, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Drawings by Rembrandt to Category:Drawings by artist and Category:Works by Rembrandt
- Propose merging Category:Drawings by Hieronymus Bosch to Category:Drawings by artist and Category:Works by Hieronymus Bosch
- Propose merging Category:Drawings by Peter Paul Rubens to Category:Works by Peter Paul Rubens
- Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, only one or two articles per category. The nominated categories have all been created by the same editor User:Hocimi of whom some more Dutch history categories have been nominated in the past weeks. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:05, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Support, though Category:Self-portraits by Rembrandt isn't just about drawings, so should only be merged to Category:Works by Rembrandt. Sionk (talk) 19:07, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge. ℯxplicit 00:26, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Scholars of Dutch history to Category:Historians of the Netherlands
- Nominator's rationale: merge two categories with overlapping scope. This is another Hocimi creation. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:05, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Merge -- obviously the same thing. Peterkingiron (talk) 20:24, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Support – consistent with naming convention for the subject matter. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 02:36, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

Category:We Got Married contestants
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. – Fayenatic London 23:37, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization of performers by performance. We Got Married is nothing but a variety show, and the participants are hardly "contestants". There is a long-standing precedence against these types of categories: User:Good Olfactory/CFD#Reality TV participants. It is non-defining categorization. ℯxplicit 01:22, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete -- This feels like a performance by performer category. I am surprised that participants are notable, unless for other reasons. Peterkingiron (talk) 20:27, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Speedy delete Classic example of a performer category. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:45, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

Category:Lists of concert tours of South Korea
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 to all parents: Category:South Korean music-related lists, Category:Concert tours of South Korea, Category:Lists of concert tours and Category:Lists of events in South Korea. – Fayenatic London 23:32, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: These are not lists of concert tours of South Korea, they are lists of concert tours by South Korean musicians that take place in South Korea, among other countries. Alternatively, this can be upmerged to its parent categories as too small. ℯxplicit 01:11, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete As it is currently named, this is a horrible idea: imagine how many concert tours have gone thru America! Tours by artist nationality is probably trivial and wouldn't be used for navigation. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:46, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
- Upmerge or rename per nom. Deletion of the South Korean subcat on its own is not appropriate, it should only be considered for deletion if the parent Category:Lists of concert tours is discussed in conjunction. Marcocapelle (talk) 12:13, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
