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)[reply]
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)[reply]
Merge per nom. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:07, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:57, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
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)[reply]
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)[reply]

  • Propose deleting Category:Rajasthan Rashtriya Loktantrik Party politician stubs (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
  • Propose deleting Template:Rajasthan-RLP-politician-stub
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)[reply]

  • Propose deleting Category:Rashtriya Loktantrik Party politicians from Rajasthan (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
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)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:59, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
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)[reply]
