  • Propose renaming Category:Mangione family to Category:Mangione family (New York)

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 16:04, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: We don't make categories comprised solely of redirects to sections of articles expressly created for the purpose of the category itself. If the articles are not notable enough to be actual pages, the category should not exist. Due to being against policy, it should be deleted and the redirects should be too. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 07:22, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

more categories nominated
Nominator's rationale: merge, up to 1900 mostly single-article categories, which is unhelpful for navigation between articles. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:53, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Active massively multiplayer online games

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:Massively multiplayer online games. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 01:17, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: As the opposite Category:Inactive massively multiplayer online games, the following was created months prior to the other for non-active variant. However there are multiple reasons why I nominated this category, 1 because we do have a category for Category:Active multiplayer online games or Category:Active online games but we do have Category:Inactive online games as well as Category:Inactive multiplayer online games and Category:Inactive massively multiplayer online games. This category is also not complete; any article already in Category:Massively multiplayer online games or a subcategory of it (only including individual games) which is not also located under the inactive games could be added, but I'm asking deletion here so tell me what you think.

Category:Persistent worlds

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). ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 16:05, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEF, an old category that at this point is filled with articles for games not generally associated with persistent worlds; it's mostly likely not defining; especially when given the fact scanning for the word "persistent" in many articles gets you nothing. The fact calling some of them persistent has become subject to opinion. I am also considering several other categories related to online games deletion in both active and subsequent discussions.

Nominator's rationale: category with one eponymous article Gjs238 (talk) 01:27, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy upmerge to Pensions by country and Retirement in Armenia under WP:C2F. jlwoodwa (talk) 03:38, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Browser-based multiplayer online games

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: dual merge to Category:Browser games and Category:Multiplayer online games. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 01:21, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: made all the way a few years ago, I feel like this category is not wroth keeping. I do not see this specific intersection of browser platform and multiplayer online as defining, like as if it was considered more defining back in 2008? Also the parent categories that this category currently make absolutely no sense. It should be a child of just broswer and multiplayer online games, not mmorpgs and mmogs cuz that doesn't make sense. Anyway, I can't see this category being kept. Individual article should be moved to the browser games category, and if not already in a subcategory of Multiplayer online games added to that category.
