Category:Structures with tuned mass dampers
- Nominator's rationale: Non-defining; already listed in tuned mass damper. fgnievinski (talk) 23:57, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Neutral – I was Twinkle-notified of this proposed deletion because I am technically the creator of this category, but really I just moved an existing category to a more appropriate name. For all practical purposes Triplecaña created this category, so I am pinging him here. —jameslucas ▄▄▄ ▄ ▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▄ 02:12, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Santa Clara University publications
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT, this category has only one entry and is unlikely to significantly grow. Entry is already in appropriate subcategories. User:Namiba 23:21, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:25, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Fictional women soldiers and warriors
- Nominator's rationale: Consistency with parent Category:Fictional females and other Category:Fictional females by occupation categories. --Wahspsneh (talk) 23:00, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- This would create inconsistency with the parent Category:Women warriors. It would probably be better to move the subcategories to "women". Marcocapelle (talk) 06:27, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Support not all are adults, "women warriors" should instead be "female warriors", since child soldiers is a thing. -- 64.229.90.199 (talk) 05:20, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Saint Omer family
- Propose renaming Category:Saint Omer family to Category:Saint-Omer family
- Nominator's rationale: per the format used for all category members. Constantine ✍ 18:07, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:28, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Comeback victories in association football
- Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization by non-defining characteristic. We do not have any other categories that group games or matches in any sport by victory status, and "comeback" victories are neither rare nor unprecedented enough to require special treatment. Bearcat (talk) 17:07, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. I would probably have voted differently if there were articles Comeback victory of player X but those do not exist. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:31, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete as WP:NOTDEFINING, as the term doesn't have a clear usage for an in/out characteristic. There's a 6-1 victory in there, which is certainly not a notable comeback. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:23, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Rural localities in Alagirsky District
- Nominator's rationale: Single-entry WP:SMALLCAT of unclear necessity. We do not have a comprehensive scheme of automatically subcategorizing all rural localities in Russia by individual local district, so this isn't part of a comprehensive subcategorization scheme -- and with just ten pages in the target category, it doesn't qualify for the "diffusion of a too-large parent category" pass either. And while a scan of the proposed redirect target reveals a couple of other articles that could theoretically be moved here, that still wouldn't get this up to five entries.
So the place should just be in the North Ossetia–Alania parent category rather than needing its own dedicated special category. Bearcat (talk) 17:03, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:33, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Comment This category has been emptied. Liz Read! Talk! 01:29, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
Establishments in the Golan Heights
- Propose merging Category:1986 establishments in the Golan Heights to Category:1986 establishments in Israel
- Propose deleting Category:1986 in the Golan Heights
- Propose deleting Category:1980s establishments in the Golan Heights
- Propose deleting Category:Establishments in the Golan Heights by year
- Propose deleting Category:Establishments in the Golan Heights
- Nominator's rationale: This set of categories currently exists for only one page about a school. However serious the political sensitivity, this is not useful for navigation. – Fayenatic London 16:36, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Alternatively, the hierarchy could be populated with 30 Israeli settlements, 3 wineries etc. Perhaps this was the intention of the categories' creator before he was banned from further work on categories. – Fayenatic London 16:50, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Merge/delete, there is no prospect of decently populated year categories for a small area like this. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:36, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Cab over Off-road vehicles
- Propose renaming Category:Cab over Off-road vehicles to Category:Cab over off-road vehicles
- Nominator's rationale: Pretty clear MOS:CAPS, just hoping someone can automatically update all the pages within. Vossanova o< 16:06, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Speedy rename per C2A. Comination of cab over + off-road vehicle. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 16:23, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Comment I did not realise there was a guideline on capitalisation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Myrtonos (talk • contribs) 04:57, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Speedy rename per C2A. Comination of cab over + off-road vehicle. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 16:23, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:High-proper-motion stars
- Nominator's rationale: No quantitative definition, failing WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 11:02, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Listify a cut-off can be chosen, just as other list articles choose what is meant by nearby, etc -- 64.229.90.199 (talk) 03:40, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- There is already such a list at Proper_motion#Stars_with_high_proper_motion. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 05:17, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: SIMBAD has a "High Proper Motion Star" (PM*) object type. I assume that's what's used to define this category. SevenSpheres (talk) 17:19, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Greek wine appellations
- Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT, only 1 article. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 10:44, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Shouldn't it also be merged to Category:Appellations? Marcocapelle (talk) 07:03, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Star Wars: Droids category tree
DELETE the Star Wars: Droids category tree
- Category:Star Wars: Droids (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Category:Star Wars: Droids characters (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Category:Star Wars: Droids episodes (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- DELETE these 3 categories, as the creation of a blocked user Vexedsmuggery (talk · contribs), and non-defining for any of the characters in the character category; the episode category only contains 1 redirect; and there are insufficient number of articles to even support 1 category, where this is defining, and not a redirect. -- 64.229.90.199 (talk) 06:11, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- FYI {{Star Wars: Droids}} has also been nominated for deletion -- 64.229.90.199 (talk) 06:16, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. QuietHere (talk) 08:22, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per reasons given.★Trekker (talk) 09:40, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Speedy delete as WP:CSD#G5. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:21, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Special Temporary Authorization stations
- Nominator's rationale: Not a defining characteristic. Stations go in and out of STA all the time for technical and legal reasons. The two redirects were temporary FM boosters, now replaced with translators, and for the article (WMEN), it isn't really defining. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 02:31, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
Category:Special Temporary Authorization GSM stations
- Nominator's rationale: Category not likely to grow WP:SMALLCAT. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 02:30, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

- Combine and rename Category:Boston Breakers (NWSL) players, Category:Boston Breakers (WPSL Elite) players and Category:Boston Breakers (WPS) players to Category:Boston Breakers players
- Redirect Category:Sky Blue FC players to Category:NJ/NY Gotham FC players
- Propose renaming the following categories:
- Nominator's rationale: These categories all refer to the same clubs, and do not need to be split by league. Follows the outcome of similar CfDs here, here and here. S.A. Julio (talk) 01:44, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page moves. S.A. Julio (talk) 01:44, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Merge/Rename all per nom. –Aidan721 (talk) 15:34, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Support all team is the same, regardless of the league that the team played in. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:53, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
- Support per nom - one category per club, not per league. GiantSnowman 20:07, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
