Support but Leave Redirects Reliable sources are going to list the old name of the college forever, so let's leave redirects at least to the biography subcats. - RevelationDirect (talk) 14:35, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure). Queen of Hearts (talk) 03:06, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Isolated category containing only 1961 F-84 Thunderstreak incident, which is in more useful categories already e.g. 1961 in East Germany. The only other page I found that could be added is Biathlon World Championships 1967 which is already in the target and 1967 in East German sport. – Fayenatic London 21:13, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Category only had one article, Sarah Bryant (Virtua Fighter), which I had already moved out. I cannot, however, move out the redirect category. (Oinkers42) (talk) 17:40, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Events at Madison Square Garden

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) Queen of Hearts (talk) 03:08, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCVENUE which explicitly mentions these categories as an example which should be avoided "Likewise, avoid categorizing events by their hosting locations. Many notable locations (e.g. Madison Square Garden) have hosted so many sports events and conventions over time that categories listing all such events would not be readable." A previous discussion at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2024_June_30#Category:Madison_Square_Garden resulted in it being purged with similar subcategories being deleted. Flibirigit (talk) 16:22, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support as the nominator of the previous discussion. Since there is no consensus to alter OCVENUE, it should be enforced.--User:Namiba 16:42, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Shouldn't most subcats of Category:Events by venue also be removed by the same logic? I'm also trying to understand the reasoning behind WP:OCVENUE, which says not to do this because the category would be too big. I don't think the category would become overly large because the vast majority of MSG events do not have a dedicated Wikipedia page. If it did become too large, segmenting by year / decade seems to make more sense than deleting the category? --Habst (talk) 18:34, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In the previous deletion dicsussion, there were more bloated subcats including conferences and conventions, in addition to many sporting events such as boxing, UFC, wrestling, and so forth. Flibirigit (talk) 19:28, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Flibirigit, thanks, what do you think about adding the "Events at..." subcats of Category:Events by venue to this discussion as well? --Habst (talk) 20:17, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Probably better to start a separate discussion. This nomination began because of the previous discussion at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2024_June_30#Category:Madison_Square_Garden . Flibirigit (talk) 21:11, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes they should be deleted. We don't sort events by venue for the same reason we don't sort performers by performance WP:PERFCAT.--User:Namiba 16:08, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Strongly oppose We just had this discussion which regards to Boxing matches and I stand by that precedent. Sam11333 (talk) 10:54, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Mirai (band)

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). Queen of Hearts (talk) 03:08, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Eponymous category for a band, with no other content but the eponym. As always, bands can have a dedicated category if they have a significant volume of spinoff content besides just their main article, but do not automatically get one just to hold their main article and nothing else -- but there's absolutely nothing else that can be filed here, as even their albums don't have separate articles at all.

Nominator's rationale: Category with just one entry.

Note- This is also the only entry in 'Sportspeople from Paillaco'. If this category is deleted, it would save time to bypass Sportspeople otherwise another CFD would be needed. Lost in Quebec (talk) 08:49, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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). Queen of Hearts (talk) 03:11, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename, "former" is redundant because the Grand Duchy of Lithuania no longer exists. Adding "the", similar to e.g. Category:Battles involving the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:02, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
