- Propose splitting Category:18th-century Jewish German physicians to Category:18th-century Jewish physicians and Category:18th-century German Jews
- Nominator's rationale: Isolated category, upmerge for now. They're already diffused to 18th-century German physicians SMasonGarrison 23:05, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:Cases of people who fell into a well
- 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) ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 09:23, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Not clear if this is defining vs. any other type of falling death/injury/etc. I fail to see why it is special besides being odd. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 17:54, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- I am not sure about deletion. If kept, rename to e.g. Category:People who fell into a well and Category:Fiction about falling into a well. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:32, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- Category:Well-related accidents and incidents and Category:Fiction about well-related accidents would likely be better, though in the case of the fictional category it's almost certainly full of non-defining works and should be deleted even if the real-life one is kept. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 08:08, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- That also works for me. At least let's get rid of the "cases of". Marcocapelle (talk) 10:11, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- I oppose deletion and renaming, since most of the articles in the category deal with cases of people who fell into wells, and not with the biographies of those people. Furthermore, a possible renaming would destroy the category tree in which it is currently located, which considers the category as an "event" and not a set of biographies. Sturm (talk) 23:08, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- The current title is so vague that it fails WP:NONDEF. Cases of (can be any case, not just about the well) people who fell into a well (can have fallen in at any time, not necessarily at the same time the case happened). Meanwhile, "well-related accident" cannot be misinterpreted. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 11:09, 1 December 2024 (UTC)
- Category:Well-related accidents and incidents and Category:Fiction about well-related accidents would likely be better, though in the case of the fictional category it's almost certainly full of non-defining works and should be deleted even if the real-life one is kept. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 08:08, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- Support Category:Well-related accidents and incidents and Category:Fiction about well-related accidents per above. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 04:00, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Category:Hazardous events
- 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. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:57, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. Even innocuous events like parades and rocket launches can technically be hazardous if you do something dumb. And explosions aren't necessarily hazardous if nobody is around. It's unclear if the category is going for "technically hazardous" or "proven to have been hazardous". ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 17:43, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- The deletion will create a mess. It is a subcategory of "event by topics"+"hazard". Geysirhead (talk) 19:27, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- Agree in principle. But shouldn't we keep the subcategories in the tree of Category:Events? Marcocapelle (talk) 07:37, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- Also, this proposal will create a mess. Geysirhead (talk) 19:29, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- No it won't. Everything is already in other subcategories. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 00:28, 1 December 2024 (UTC)
- Alright, then support. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:09, 1 December 2024 (UTC)
- No it won't. Everything is already in other subcategories. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 00:28, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

Post-close note: this deletion orphaned Category:Explosions. I've tagged it with {{uncategorized}} for now. * Pppery * it has begun... 20:09, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

Early religious organizations
- 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. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:57, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 1st century to Category:Organizations established in the 1st century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 2nd century to Category:Organizations established in the 2nd century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 3rd century to Category:Organizations established in the 3rd century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 4th century to Category:Organizations established in the 4th century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 5th century to Category:Organizations established in the 5th century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 6th century to Category:Organizations established in the 6th century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 7th century to Category:Organizations established in the 7th century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 8th century to Category:Organizations established in the 8th century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 9th century to Category:Organizations established in the 9th century
- Propose merging Category:Religious organizations established in the 10th century to Category:Organizations established in the 10th century
- Nominator's rationale: merge, at least in the first 10 centuries this is a redundant category layer, the Christian subcategories are sufficient. Across the 10 categories there are only three non-Christian articles. These articles Iobakchoi, Tiantai and Islam should be added to the respective century in religion category after the merge. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:47, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment Most of these categories only contain one category and Category:Religious organizations established in the 1st century is empty. Liz Read! Talk! 22:40, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

Category:Sentientists
- 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. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:57, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Not WP:DEFINING. Most of the list is WP:OR and fails WP:RS, there is no good sourcing describing all these as "Sentientists". There is also a conflict of interest issue as the creator of this category is the owner of the Sentientist website and the people he has added to this category are those that he has interviewed on his podcast. Psychologist Guy (talk) 16:11, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, not a defining characteristic. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:26, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Not a defining characteristic anyway, but having looked at all 25 people in the cat, the characteristic is only mentioned in the article for three of them (always as self-identification), so the WP:OR argument seems valid to me as well.

- The result of the discussion was: merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:58, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Women's education by continent to Category:Women's education by location
- Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. Redundant category layer that's not helpful for navigation SMasonGarrison 16:08, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Merge for now. Note that the target was nominated for deletion, as empty, but I removed the tag. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:28, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:Global conflicts
- 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. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:58, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: There is no clear explanation of what a "global conflict" is for the purpose of this category, and no article on it, only a redirect to world war, which has its own category. Category:World wars can be merged into some of the parent categories, but otherwise this seems like WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 10:42, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, no clear inclusion criteria. For example the Hundred Years' War lasted long, but for the larger part only two countries were involved, so why global? Marcocapelle (talk) 16:34, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

Category:Violent conflict
- 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) Cremastra ‹ u — c › 15:58, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Violent conflict to Category:Conflicts by type
- Nominator's rationale: People don't need to be told that war or combat involves a "violent" conflict, that's rather obvious. This is a redundant category layer overall. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 10:32, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:35, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: dual merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:58, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Monorails in Egypt to Category:Rail transport in Egypt
- Nominator's rationale: Only 1 entry, there are no other monorails in Egypt. LibStar (talk) 05:02, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Dual merge, also to Category:Monorails. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:53, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Psychiatric hospitals in Latvia to Category:Hospitals in Latvia
- Nominator's rationale: Only 1 entry, and it appears no other psychiatric hospitals in Latvia have a WP article. LibStar (talk) 04:20, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Dual merge, also to Category:Psychiatric hospitals. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:54, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
