Nominator's rationale: As stated by the lead on category page: "China classifies their government activities into projects." So does every other country and no other category for any country exists of this type. This is an OR category and all articles are better covered by existing categories.

Nominator's rationale: Fails WP:USERCAT for lacking any discernible collaborative function. * Pppery * it has begun... 18:46, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:09, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete as creator of this category. I made it I think early in the morning, so I wasn't thinking straight.  Preceding unsigned comment added by MacaroniPizzaHotDog (talkcontribs) 21:59, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment This category has been emptied. Also, as a general rule, it's best not to edit when you are either intoxicated or sleep-deprived. Liz Read! Talk! 22:44, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete Per WP:G7, author requests deletion. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:30, 4 November 2025 (UTC)

Category:Cryptid footprints

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 13:56, 6 November 2025 (UTC)
Nominator's rationale: This is a non-defining feature for all of the cryptids listed and has no corresponding page. Pages are appropriately categorized, no need to merge. WinstonDewey (talk) 15:44, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete, the articles are about creatures, not about footprints. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:19, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete as unnecessary. The category's creator also created Category:Legendary footprints an hour and twenty minutes later on the same day. That would be a better worded category for any editor to add the relevant cryptid articles to; for example, the wording fits with Category:American legendary creatures. 5Q5| 11:15, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

Category:Politicians of European descent

The result of the discussion was: Merge and containerize * Pppery * it has begun... 22:40, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
Nominator's rationale: I don't think there is any value in an intermediate level for categories by national descent at the continent level. Note that these may be used as a proxy for race, ineligible per WP:ETHNICRACECAT. Individuals may be defined as e.g. Politicians of Italian descent or Politicians of Japanese descent rather than European, except for perceived race, and such individual national descent categories may be found directly in Category:Politicians by descent.

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge unnecessary category layer with only one subcategory. The Archdiocese of Agaña is the only Roman Catholic diocese in Guam. The subcategory is already in Category:Roman Catholic dioceses in the United States and the other relevant parent categories. Mclay1 (talk) 01:56, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
