This is very odd; the category is naturally relevant, as it is the equivalent of other categories all sorted by nationality, and it has previously been filled with many articles and can be so again easily since they are many articles on wikipedia which can be sorted in it. It had many articles sorted by it just recently. Someone must have saboutaged this category by purposedly emptying it so as to have it deleted. I can fill it again if you wait a little.--Aciram (talk) 16:59, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
- It appears someone emptied this category to replace it with the category Russian Empire salon-holders. This category is a natural sub category to that, just as Imperial Russia is a natural sub category to Russia. It is also the equivalent to the other categories of other nations, which may also have sub categpries depending of the epoch. --Aciram (talk) 17:05, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
Contested deletion[edit]
This category should not be speedy deleted as being unpopulated, because...it, as well as other similar categories has been emptied by purpose by someone who wish to replace it with Imperial Russian salon holders, despite the fact that Imperial categories should be sub-categories to Russian-categories, as per wikipedia policy, in which period-categories of a country is placed as sub categories under the nationality-category.
