Delete, empty, orphan, I can't even tell what it was intended to hold. If it later turns out to be useful, can easily be recreated. JesseW 23:00, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Rename as Category:People's Action Party (Singapore) politicians in line with the naming format of other subcategories in Category:Singaporean politicians by party.--Huaiwei 20:48, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Previously deleted Category:Worst Actress Razzie (film). Similar category - not needed. Should be a list. K1Bond007 17:03, August 15, 2005 (UTC)

Empty. Nominator suggested a rename to Category:Computer and video games by genre, but I think a delete is more in order. --Kbdank71 16:55, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Rename to Category:Characters in written science fiction as per the recent decision to rename Category:Literary characters to Category:Characters in written fiction DES (talk) 15:04, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

If you look at Category:Mayors you will find that the title of this category is inconsistent with the title of other similar categories. I suggest renaming this one to Category:Irish mayors. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:00, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Defer to Wikipedia:Category titles. Radiant_>|< 10:21, August 15, 2005 (UTC)
  • Defer as Radiant!. But this is a particularly difficult case. Irish can refer to anyone on the island of Ireland, both North and Republic, so the proposed name wouldn't really do anyway. -Splash 17:12, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Defer as above. for the matter of that "Category:Irish mayors could refer to mayors of irish ethnicity outside of ireland. There have been many such mayors in the U.S. and due to the percieved domination of urban politics by the Irish in some parts of the U.S. during the late 19th and early 20th centuary, this might actually be a significant and useful category, or at least a list.

This was listed here a few weeks ago and was deleted. Now User:Coolcat has recreated it — should be speedied. — Davenbelle 06:03, August 15, 2005 (UTC)

User:65.92.72.52 had started to create this kind of categories:

and also started to attach people to these cats (these are his only edits). I am not aware any previous discussion on this but IMHO such "categories" have no use than to clutter an article. Pavel Vozenilek 02:32, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
