Category:Early Germanic music[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) 11:49, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now, there's not enough content to support a category right now. There's only one page in here (and Early Germanic music redirects to Early Germanic culture Mason (talk) 22:56, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Native Americans' rights activists[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 (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 01:48, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Rename to make the distinction between being an activist who is of native american ancestry and someone who is in support of the rights of people who are of native american ancestry. This category is a siblings to Category:Activists for African-American civil rights‎ and Category:Activists for Hispanic and Latino American civil rights, which were renamed following this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2015_November_4#Category:African-Americans'_civil_rights_activists Mason (talk) 22:38, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
support per nom jengod (talk) 22:40, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. NLeeuw (talk) 06:16, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 08:31, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. PersusjCP (talk) 15:31, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support - seems reasonable. --ARoseWolf 12:09, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support - per nom. Makes sense. Netherzone (talk) 00:26, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support in principle, but why not "civil rights" like the other categories? Marcocapelle (talk) 13:54, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I would think it's because not only does "Native American rights" encompass civil rights, but also treaty rights. PersusjCP (talk) 15:30, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Also there are quite a few Native American environmental justice rights activists, too. Netherzone (talk) 00:23, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Lists of airports in the United States. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 01:46, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Redundant category. Let'srun (talk) 19:42, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Places" doesn't make sense. Up-merge to Airports in the United States and delete category all together. CaribDigita (talk) 21:06, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Upmerge to Category:Lists of airports in the United States for now without prejudice per CaribDigita. NLeeuw (talk) 06:18, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 01:46, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge, not enough content for diffusion by continent. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:32, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge for now per nom. Normally a "by country" category is a containercat, but in this case it's not marked as such, and it would create an impractical situation if it were (as indicated by nom), so it's fine. NLeeuw (talk) 06:26, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 01:52, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge delete, single-article categories, this is not helpful for navigation. Not every Hebrew Bible book must have its own people category per se. There is no need to merge to Category:Hebrew Bible people, the articles are already in Category:Prophets in the Hebrew Bible. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:18, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle: do you mean "merge"? HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 01:45, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: rename for consistency with their subcategories which are all "by descent", as well as for consistency with Category:French people by descent at the top of the tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 03:23, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom Mason (talk) 04:22, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Suicide books[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 Category:Books about suicide. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 01:44, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Dual merge: These categories seem to be extremely overlapping Mason (talk) 02:16, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle: @NLeeuw: @Mason: I want to take a moment to clarify the nature of the category we're discussing. It appears there might have been a misunderstanding, and I'd like to ensure we're on the same page. The category in question pertains to books on the topic of DIY suicide. These books delve into sensitive and potentially dangerous instructions related to suicide. As such, they carry a significant degree of risk and responsibility. It's important to recognize that their content can have serious implications for individuals who may be vulnerable or in distress. Given the sensitive nature of this subject matter, it's understandable that there may be concerns regarding the availability and promotion of such materials. Our intention is not to offend or upset, but rather to approach this topic with caution and consideration for the well-being of all individuals involved. I apologize if there was any confusion regarding the purpose or scope of this category. Geysirhead (talk) 06:06, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Noted. NLeeuw (talk) 06:23, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Single merge to Category:Books about suicide; Category:Suicide methods does not seem to be an appropriate merge target. Perhaps keep a redirect. Marcocapelle (talk) 03:02, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Single merge per Marcocapelle. A book about suicide can be about a lot more than just the methods. Think about motives, underlying causes, social impact, prevention, statistics, cultural depictions and references, etc. NLeeuw (talk) 14:16, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Great points! Mason (talk) 22:34, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
