  • Propose renaming Category:Violence against elderly people to Category:?
Nominator's rationale: This article seems overbroad as to be unhelpful. If one can look briefly enough to stay in a good mood, it does not seem the analogous Category:Violence against women would be terribly helpful without all those subcategories. Remsense ‥  23:10, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I created this category to contain articles on the topic of elder abuse. I thought this title was the most appropriate for this new category. Moondragon21 23:13, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: WP:OCYEAR. Not useful to diffuse the 20th century by year in French Polynesia. Do not need to merge the individuals year categories to "YYYY in Oceania" because the content is already in that tree. –Aidan721 (talk) 21:09, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure). –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:32, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The eponymous parent is just a redundant and unnecessary layer to the "works by" subcategory each of these hold since none contain anything else but its main eponymous article. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 15:51, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all per WP:OCEPON and WP:CATWORKS. --woodensuperman 16:05, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Typically relatives should not be placed in one's eponymous category. You could create Category:Mamet family, I suppose, but that would be a parent to the David Mamet category, leaving it that same as it is now. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 02:59, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This is the only subcategory in target, and it only houses two subcats of its own. Seems like a redundant layer to me. Did also house Nile University, but I removed that because it's in a different city. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 03:43, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
