Category:Former South Florida Bulls sports venues
- 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: selective merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 16:42, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Former South Florida Bulls sports venues to Category:South Florida Bulls sports venues
- Nominator's rationale: No need to distinguish between former and current. User:Namiba 18:00, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Selectively Merge Certainly this category should go but I think only Red McEwen Field should be merged since it was purpose built by the university. The rest seem like multi-purpose arenas that aren't defined by USF, per WP:OCVENUE. - RevelationDirect (talk) 19:55, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- I just noticed that Category:South Florida Bulls baseball venues exists but probably should also be nominated for the same reason you state above.--User:Namiba 20:07, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Selectively merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:01, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:Video games by protagonist
- 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) 16:43, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Video games by protagonist to Category:Video games by type of protagonist
- Nominator's rationale: Even though it only contains other categories containing "Protagonist", the current name is ambiguous, you could add "Bugs Bunny video games" or "Batman video games" to the subcategories. We already have a separate category entitled Category:Video games by featured character but not all of them center on games featuring the same single character as the protagonist. It would be better to just simply rename this to avoid confusion. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 17:46, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:Wahhabists
- 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: procedural close. Nominator locked as an LTA. (non-admin closure) C F A 💬 16:47, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Wahhabists to Category:Wahhabis and all subcategories
- Nominator's rationale: Quite simple, "Wahhabi" is the more common demonym than "Wahhabist" or "Wahhabite". Consistent with Wahhabi-related articles Wahhabi War (Category:Wahhabi War), Wahhabi sack of Karbala, Wahhabi Sack of Najaf (1806), Category:Wahhabi dynasties etc. and also consistent with other Islamic denominational categories such as Category:Barelvis (not Barelvists), Category:Deobandis (not Deobandists), Category:Salafis etc. Also, Ngrams results give a signifiant lead to "Wahhabi" over "Wahhabist" and "Wahhabite".

Category:Haskell implementations
- 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) 16:43, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: The only page/cat in this cat is Category:Free Haskell implementations, both of which are sub cats of Category:Haskell software. No point in having this. (Please ping on any comment or reply, I cannot watch all changes of this high traffic page. Thanks!) ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 13:14, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:19th century in Alta California
- 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. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 16:45, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:19th century in Alta California to Category:Alta California
- Propose merging Category:19th-century disestablishments in Alta California to Category:19th-century disestablishments in California
- Propose merging Category:19th-century establishments in Alta California to Category:19th-century disestablishments in California
- Nominator's rationale: merge, the province Alta California existed wholly within the 19th century. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:20, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- A simple merge would mean that in Category:19th century in California it would not be obvious where to look for the missing decades. Provided that the decade subcats are also added directly to that parent, then I think this can go ahead. – Fayenatic London 10:09, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

- Propose splitting Category:Presidential residences in Puntland to Category:Presidential residences and Category:Buildings and structures in Garowe
- Nominator's rationale: Underpopulated category with only one page in it. SMasonGarrison 02:55, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: dual merge. – Fayenatic London 14:12, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose splitting Category:Arkansas politicians convicted of corruption to Category:Arkansas politicians convicted of crimes and Category:American politicians convicted of corruption
- Nominator's rationale: Narrow category that shouldn't be diffusing and doesn't help navigation with a single person in it SMasonGarrison 02:41, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Dual merge per nom. Not every state has its own subcategory (though some do). Marcocapelle (talk) 04:22, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:Presidential elections in the United States
- 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: keep. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 16:48, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Presidential elections in the United States to Category:United states presidential elections
- Nominator's rationale: Per title of main article - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 00:55, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Procedural oppose Per the bazillion categories in Category:Presidential elections by country. Changing the name would lead to inconsistency, so all of them would have to be nominated unless there's some special reason this is singled out. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 01:06, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- In fact there is good reason to nominate them all, because the articles use a different format than the categories, at least for the countries that I checked. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:25, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- If that format is kept, the base article ideally should also be titled Presidential elections in the United States. Articles pertaining to individual elections can remain. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 05:41, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, but normally the categories follow the conventions in the articles, not vice versa. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:33, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Rename to match the main article, United States presidential election, without objection to nominating sibling categories later if they are similarly out of sync. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:17, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- It was probably not very clear from the above, but I am supporting Zxcvbnm's procedural oppose. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:08, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - as mentioned this is part of a very well-established and extensive category tree at Category:Presidential elections by country. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:59, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- Procedural oppose per above.--Darwinek (talk) 02:49, 17 November 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose Current title is consistent with others in Category:Presidential elections by country. Number 57 15:34, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
