Category:Access network shows
- 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 (non-admin closure). Marcocapelle (talk) 06:09, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Access network shows to Category:CTV Two network shows
- Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT for just two shows, both of which are up for deletion at WP:AFD for not being properly sourceable as passing WP:TVSHOW criteria for notability. Even if one or both of them somehow gets kept, however, this still isn't particularly useful as a category for them: one of the two shows is already filed in both this and the target category anyway, because it was already airing on both Access and CTV Two even before Access got folded into CTV Two, and the one that was actually unique to Access wouldn't need to be categorized this narrowly on its own. This made sense at the time it was first created, when Access was still a separate thing and more of its shows had articles than this, but most of the articles have since been deleted and Access has since been rebranded as part of CTV Two, so there's no real need for this anymore.

Category:Cape Verdean football club stubs
- 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: no consensus. (non-admin closure) Hhkohh (talk) 12:00, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Dedicated editorial work means that there are few stub articles remaining in this category. Propose deleting category and upmerging template to Category:West African football club stubs. Dawynn (talk) 15:54, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- Question. What would happen to Template:CapeVerde-footyclub-stub if the category is deleted? Thank you. Izzat Kutebar (talk) 22:11, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Izzat Kutebar: If the result of the discussion is delete, it will both delete catgory and templates. Hhkohh (talk) 12:16, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Hhkohh: I see. Thank you. Izzat Kutebar (talk) 16:16, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- No, the outcome for the template can be different than the category. I nominated the template to be merged to Category:West African football club stubs. In that case, any articles tagged with {{CapeVerde-footyclub-stub}} would show in the West African category, rather than a separate Cape Verde category. Dawynn (talk) 14:33, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

- Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. Hhkohh (talk) 12:16, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - remains a valid category (for now). Wait until it is empty. GiantSnowman 12:39, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. I agree with Giant Snowman that it should remain valid until empty. Izzat Kutebar (talk) 16:16, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- Dual merge, it seems inconsistent that we require as many as 60 stubs to start a category but leave the category alone when they contain merely a handful of stubs. However if merged it should also be merged to the Capeverdian sport stubs. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:19, 29 June 2018 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: Delete/upmerge. Timrollpickering 11:42, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Stub category for a small permanent category, with few stub-sized articles. Propose deleting stub category, and upmerging template to both Category:Peerage of the United Kingdom stubs and Category:Duke stubs. Dawynn (talk) 13:48, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Category:Traditional clothing
- 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 both to Category:Folk costumes. (For the record, I am also manually merging the corresponding categories in Urdu Wikipedia, which may have been copied from here and are poorly populated. However, Finnish and Vietnamese have both "traditional" and "national" categories, so I am not merging the Wikidata entries.) – Fayenatic London 09:21, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Traditional clothing to Category:National costume
- Nominator's rationale: Vague category with out own article. Contents seem to apply just as much if not more in Category:National costume (which in turn could be rename to folk costumes, but that is another discussion). Article Folk costume, the main article of Category:National costume, lists one of its synonyms "traditional garment", which indicates that Category:Traditional clothing embodies more of a synonym of Category:National costume. Chicbyaccident (talk) 10:58, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- Merge the other way, or to "folk costumes". The number of countries that actually have an official "National costume" is rather small. Johnbod (talk) 22:42, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Relisting comment: a better consensus about the merge target would be helpful. I have added a cfm template to the page of Category:National costume. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:12, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- Merge both to Category:Folk costumes since Traditional clothing and National costume both redirect to Folk costume. Oculi (talk) 15:26, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- Merge both to Category:Folk costumes as suggested by Oculi. Izzat Kutebar (talk) 16:19, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- Merge both to Category:Folk costumes per article title. SFB 18:54, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
- Merge both to Category:Folk costumes per the others above; seems the sensible approach. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:24, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
