The country is called Papua New Guinea. Papua was just part of the country as the Australian Territory of Papua. Bduke 11:06, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
- Rename. I think this one slipped past people as several categories were renamed at once. The title is quite inappropriate. Papua was the Australian Territory of Papua before WWII. After the war it was administered jointly with the United Nations Mandate of New Guinea (the former German New Guinea). The two territories became independant as Papua New Guinea. To refer to Papua is to refer to only part of PNG. Papua can also be confused with the Indonesian Province of West Papua. --Bduke 11:14, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Unused (contains links to two articles though, possibly it was an effort to categorize them). Conscious 07:24, 17 May 2006 (UTC).

Not a primary classifier for animals. This category can serve no purpose unless the categorization hierarchy is going to include infraphylums. Delete. Outriggr 05:15, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Useless category that simply repeats the text from the main page, as well as relisting (manually) the pages that can more easily be found from this page http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Whatlinkshere&target=Help%3AJapanese. The template is useful but there is no need for this category. freshgavinΓΛĿЌ 04:19, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
Two categories for same area. This one only has two sub cats, the suggested merge target has all of the articles. Leaving a cat redirect might be needed if the merge is approved. Vegaswikian 02:34, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
This category is redundant, as Category:Independent Agencies of the United States Government already exists for the exact same purpose.
Better accurate name. —Markles 01:44, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
Empty category. Relevant articles are at the correct Category:Esterházy. Olessi 00:17, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
As has been mentioned on its talk page, this category is subjective and can be used as an attack category. Putting someone in this category is a stark outright condemnation, with no room for the subtleties that can be expressed in an article. There is such a difference between the pre- and post-Holocaust eras that it seems to me to be improper to put anyone from the pre-Holocaust era in a category which will automatically equate them with gas chamber operators in the minds of many readers. At present this category is protected, so I cannot tag it. I think this use of protection to prevent amendment to an obviously controversial category is improper and have asked for the protection to be removed. Hawkestone 00:14, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as per nom. As there are already categories for Nazism, Anti-semitism and this seems unnessesary and too easy to use as an attack Palendrom 02:33, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
