This is a list of user category discussions, including deletion reviews, from March 2007 through March 2010. (Discussions which have yet to be sorted may be found here.)

This list is intended to be a resource for editors identifying past consensus and precedents regarding inclusion and deletion of user categories. Editors are cautioned to not draw conclusions based solely on the balance of "keep" and "delete" outcomes. The classification system used herein is an organizational device only, and is not a substitute for actually viewing the linked discussions.

This list excludes, with some exceptions, nominations that result in an outcome of "rename" (including "speedy rename"), "merge", or "speedy delete" under criterion G7 or criteiron C1. Such discussions tend to involve changes that are uncontroversial or that concern user category naming conventions, and therefore are not overly relevant to an evaluation of consensus regarding inclusion or deletion of certain types of categories.

Major discussions, defined as discussions that apply to an entire category tree and significantly affect consensus for certain types of user categories, are bolded and italicised. Discussions with outcomes that have been reversed, either through a subsequent discussion or via a deletion review, are crossed out.
