Category:Recreation by period
- 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: manual merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:28, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
- Propose manually merging Category:Recreation by century (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) to Category:Categories by century
- Propose manually merging Category:Recreation by decade (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) to Category:Categories by decade
- Propose manually merging Category:Recreation by year (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) to Category:Categories by year
- Propose manually merging Category:Recreation by period (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) to Category:Categories by period
- Nominator's rationale: Redundant layer and not exactly the most defining intersection between these topics. Manually merge since many of the subcategories are already in subcategories of that tree. –Aidan721 (talk) 23:29, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 02:07, 30 January 2025 (UTC)
- Merge, redundant container categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:22, 30 January 2025 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. I also note that some of these aren't always "recreation". Sports and dance for example, while recreation activities for the amateur, are also professional activities and much of out coverage of these topics is not in a recreational capacity.4meter4 (talk) 18:53, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: rename. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:57, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Dorrien and Smith-Dorrien family to Category:Smith-Dorrien family
- Nominator's rationale: This is a family of Dorriens, Smiths, Smith-Dorriens, and Dorrien-Smiths. We should pick one. The most are Smith-Dorriens, with four. Mike Selinker (talk) 17:12, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
- No particular objection - seems like a more sensible option. Not only were there Smith-Dorriens and Dorrien-Smiths, but also Smith-Dorrien-Smiths. Cnbrb (talk) 19:19, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
- HAHAHAHA. Mike Selinker (talk) 20:28, 29 January 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: keep. Nominator's rationale was firmly rebutted. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:58, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Violates WP:OCASSOC Sims2aholic8 (talk) 12:02, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep, WP:OCASSOC does not apply, about something is much stronger than related to something. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:25, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. This appears to be a defining aspect to these shows. I agree that OCASSOC does not apply in this context.4meter4 (talk) 19:01, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: delete. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:59, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: delete, a far too small stub category. The two articles should be added to Category:Rajasthan politician stubs. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:29, 29 January 2025 (UTC)

Category:Rashtriya Loktantrik Party politicians from Rajasthan
- 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) 01:01, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: No need for this category because Rashtriya Loktantrik Party category already exists and this party is only based in Rajasthan and not other states so we do not specifically need to mention Rajasthan in category. TheSlumPanda (talk) 06:36, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
- When the deletion in the nomination above this one goes ahead this category will be empty. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:32, 29 January 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:59, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Nyctibiidae to Category:Nyctibiiformes
- Nominator's rationale: Nyctibiidae is the sole member of the monotypic order Nyctibiiformes. Normally I'd propose merging the higher taxon, but in this case I think Category:Nyctibiiformes should be kept for consistency with the rest of Category:Birds by classification. jlwoodwa (talk) 02:11, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
