- Nominator's rationale: Fails WP:USERCAT for lacking any discernible collaborative function - see WP:UCFD/I#Food, drink, and consumables * Pppery * it has begun... 23:25, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

Category:Founders of philosophical traditions

- The result of the discussion was: Delete Timrollpickering (talk) 20:45, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: WP:SUBJECTIVECAT, the definition of what constitutes a "founder" or a "philosophical tradition" is so vague that these people will have little in common other than "being very famous" - car chasm (talk) 23:16, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Museums in Fort Collins, Colorado to Category:Buildings and structures in Fort Collins, Colorado
- Propose merging Category:Museums in Larimer County, Colorado to Category:Buildings and structures in Larimer County, Colorado and Category:Museums in Colorado
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT. This category contains only 1 entry, as does Category:Museums in Larimer County, Colorado. User:Namiba 23:06, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
Dual merge, also to Category:Museums in Larimer County, Colorado.Marcocapelle (talk) 06:08, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
- It doesn't make sense to merge into another category which is also too small to justify existence.--User:Namiba 17:23, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
- Feel free to nominate that category for merging too. While it still exists it should be populated though. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:05, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
- I've added it to this nomination.--User:Namiba 20:08, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
- It doesn't make sense to merge into another category which is also too small to justify existence.--User:Namiba 17:23, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

Category:Philosophical traditions and Category:Philosophical movements
- 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/rename. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 21:12, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Philosophical traditions to Category:Philosophical schools and traditions
- Propose merging Category:Philosophical movements to Category:Philosophical schools and traditions
- Propose renaming Category:Movements in ancient philosophy to Category:Schools and traditions in ancient philosophy
- Propose renaming Category:Movements in ancient Chinese philosophy to Category:Schools and traditions in ancient Chinese philosophy
- Propose renaming Category:Movements in ancient Indian philosophy to Category:Schools and traditions in ancient Indian philosophy
- Propose renaming Category:Movements in ancient Greek philosophy to Category:Schools and traditions in ancient Greek philosophy
- Propose renaming Category:Movements in classical Greek philosophy to Category:Schools and traditions in classical Greek philosophy
- Propose renaming Category:Movements in hellenistic philosophy to Category:Schools and traditions in hellenistic philosophy
- Propose renaming Category:Movements in presocratic philosophy to Category:Schools and traditions in presocratic philosophy
- Nominator's rationale: "School" and "tradition" and "movement" are mostly synonymous words that are all used interchangeably. Not a WP:DEFINING characteristic of any one of the three labels. - car chasm (talk) 20:36, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
- Generally support per nom, but I wonder what to do with the three last subcategories of Category:Philosophical traditions, they are of a different level. Just purge? Marcocapelle (talk) 06:21, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
- It looks like Category:Western philosophy and Category:Eastern philosophy are already in Category:Philosophy by region and Category:Islamic philosophy is already in Category:Religious philosophy - those seem to be better places so I've removed them from Category:Philosophical traditions - car chasm (talk) 08:37, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:06, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect if merged, to assist in tracing interwiki links. It would be better to include Category:Movements in ancient philosophy, Category:Movements in ancient Greek philosophy and their other 5 "movements in philosophy" sub-cats in this nomination for renaming, as "schools and traditions" would also be fitting for those. – Fayenatic London 16:15, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
- I agree, that makes sense, I've added the template to each one and added them to the nom. - car chasm (talk) 23:54, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Carchasm: there is a misunderstanding here: User:Fayenatic london said "renaming", not "merging". The diffusion by period seems ok to keep. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:33, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oh dear, seems I may have misread - I've updated the templates and the nomination for renaming. - car chasm (talk) 06:51, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- This one makes no sense: renaming Category:Movements in ancient philosophy to Category:Philosophical schools and traditions. Both already exist, so renaming is not possible. That should be redirect. The other 2 merge should probably redirect as well.
William Allen Simpson (talk) 08:07, 5 February 2023 (UTC)- @Carchasm: I think the third one should be Schools and traditions in ancient philosophy. – Fayenatic London 08:47, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, it should be. Thank you! I've updated it. - car chasm (talk) 08:52, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Carchasm: I think the third one should be Schools and traditions in ancient philosophy. – Fayenatic London 08:47, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

- Oh dear, seems I may have misread - I've updated the templates and the nomination for renaming. - car chasm (talk) 06:51, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect and rename — per Fayenatic london, leave a redirect on the merged categories. Rename the others without redirect.

Category:Flavin enzymes and Category:Flavoprotein enzymes to Category:Flavoproteins
- 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) Qwerfjkltalk 20:04, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Flavin enzymes and Category:Flavoprotein enzymes to Category:Flavoproteins.
- Nominator's rationale: The categories are synonyms; the shortest and most established name is Flavoprotein; the word 'enzyme' is a pleonasm. --TadejM my talk 17:30, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
- Support. Flavoprotein is the common term. ― Synpath 07:07, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Ice hockey in Savannah, Georgia to Category:Sports in Savannah, Georgia
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT. Only 2 articles, unlikely to grow. No opposition to recreation w/ growth. User:Namiba 16:03, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. No need for a dual merge to Category:Ice hockey in Georgia (U.S. state) here. One article is already in a teams subcategory of it, the other does not quite belong. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:28, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete as Enmarket Arena is already in Category:Sports venues in Savannah, Georgia and Savannah Ghost Pirates is in Category:Sports teams in Savannah, Georgia. –Aidan721 (talk) 15:52, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

- Propose deleting Category:Washington Metro stations located underground (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Propose deleting Category:Underground rapid transit stations located above ground in the United States (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Nominator's rationale: Very recently created category that does not meet WP:CATDEFINING. While stations can generally be said to be above or below ground, they are not commonly and consistently referred to as such. AFAICT, these were all recently created by a single editor without discussion.
- Category:Underground rapid transit stations located above ground is a misnomer. If above ground, then not underground.
- Category:Underground rapid transit stations located underground is unsurprisingly redundant.
- Delete where already categorized by line. Upmerge where the stations are not already in another subcategory.

- The result of the discussion was: Delete Timrollpickering (talk) 20:49, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: WP:SUBJECTIVECAT, Not a WP:DEFINING characteristic, anyone who has ever criticized interactions between two or more people could be considered a "social critic" - car chasm (talk) 05:25, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete, not a defining characteristic. Subjects of articles have vaguely in common that they criticized aspects of modern society. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:05, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
