Category:Chitrali cuisine[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The result of the discussion was: withdrawn by nominator and retagged as C1. (non-admin closure) ‍—‍a smart kitten[meow] 08:31, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary; Only one article in category, which is the titular article Chitrali cuisine. Chitrali cuisine has also already been added to the proper categories, so we don't need a merge. ForsythiaJo (talk) 22:36, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • The category is meanwhile empty. Presumably this is a case of speedy WP:C2F anyway. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:34, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Yes, this category has been emptied. No need to come to CFD. Liz Read! Talk! 01:15, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:USA for Africa songs[edit]

Nominator's rationale: Categories containing only 1 article. Unlikely to be expanded since the group has been inactive for 40 years. Mika1h (talk) 12:59, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: See comment by Pppery.

  • Keep While not a guideline, there is consensus per WP:ALBUMSTYLE "that a category for an artist's albums should be created even if they have only released one album (irrespective of whether they are likely to release more in the future)." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk • contribs) 18:18, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:WikiProject Film task force usage[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. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 03:07, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Outdated WikiProject tracking categories, no longer applied or used by the template that formerly used them. {{WikiProject Film}} used to feature code that would count how many of the project's task forces any given film had been assigned to, and automatically sort the page into one of these categories accordingly -- but it no longer does, so none of these categories are still in any use because the template isn't populating them anymore.
They can of course be recreated in the future if they're ever actually needed again, but there's no need to indefinitely hold onto them if they're not actually being used. Bearcat (talk) 19:00, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Russo-Turkish War (1672-1681)[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: Rename to Category:Russo-Turkish War (1676–1681) * Pppery * it has begun... 19:48, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Recently created new category with an error in its name. The two articles filed here both say that the Russo-Turkish war that they were part of began in 1676, not 1672 -- and indeed, we have an article titled Russo-Turkish War (1676–1681), but none titled Russo-Turkish War (1672–1681). Meanwhile, there's a completely separate article about a Polish–Ottoman War (1672–1676), but the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was not part of Russia in that era, so they aren't the same thing and wouldn't belong in one merged category.
I'm not sure whether the creator just made a typo or actually merged two separate wars together, but this category should be renamed and have Russo-Turkish War (1676–1681) added to it as its head article (although I'm not inclined to preemptively add it to the wrongly-named category in the interim.)

Category:5th-century Irish literature[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. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 03:11, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Isolated category, not currently useful for navigation as it only holds 5th-century Irish writers, which is already in all the parent categories via other hierarchies. – Fayenatic London 09:36, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Connector category between the Irish writers tree of cats and the Irish literature cat. 42.200.80.48 (talk) 12:53, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Redirects from gender[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: rename to Category:Redirects from gendered terms. Per consensus. – robertsky (talk) 20:35, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The current title, Category:Redirects from gender, was a little confusing to me - at first, the name suggested to me that this category (and the related template) might be for categorizing redirects from the name of a gender identity. I propose moving it to the more specific title Category:Redirects from gendered terms, in order to clarify the purpose of this redirect category and remove the potential ambiguity.
Starting this CfD as a parallel discussion to the RM at Template talk:R from gender § Requested move 1 May 2024. All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten[meow] 09:23, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Spinozist philosophers[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 (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 03:02, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Redundant with either Category:Spinozists (adherents to Spinoza's philosophy) or Category:Spinoza scholars (philosophers who produce scholarship on Spinoza, independent of their own inclination).

All current members of this category are also in one of those two categories. Psychastes (talk) 03:40, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support per nom. In addition, the description on the category page is such that it is hardly a defining characteristic, more a case of WP:OCASSOC. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:59, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
