May 8

Category:Early Germanic music

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now, there's not enough content to support a category right now. There's only one page in here (and Early Germanic music redirects to Early Germanic culture Mason (talk) 22:56, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Native Americans' rights activists

Nominator's rationale: Rename to make the distinction between being an activist who is of native american ancestry and someone who is in support of the rights of people who are of native american ancestry. This category is a siblings to Category:Activists for African-American civil rights‎ and Category:Activists for Hispanic and Latino American civil rights, which were renamed following this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2015_November_4#Category:African-Americans'_civil_rights_activists Mason (talk) 22:38, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Albanian rights activists

Nominator's rationale: I think we should rename this category so it is easier to distinguish from Albanian activists. I think that this category is supposed to be Activists who advocate for the rights of Albanian people, as opposed to activists who are albanian nationals. Similar categories like this one are Category:Activists for Hispanic and Latino American civil rights & Category:Activists for African-American civil rights Mason (talk) 22:24, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Lists of airports in Massachusetts

Nominator's rationale: Redundant category. Let'srun (talk) 19:42, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Places" doesn't make sense. Up-merge to Airports in the United States and delete category all together. CaribDigita (talk) 21:06, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Heliports in Massachusetts

Nominator's rationale: Category lacks subjects. Let'srun (talk) 19:41, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Punjabi diaspora in Asia

Nominator's rationale: merge, not enough content for diffusion by continent. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:32, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Book of Joel people

Nominator's rationale: delete, single-article categories, this is not helpful for navigation. Not every Hebrew Bible book must have its own people category per se. There is no need to merge to Category:Hebrew Bible people, the articles are already in Category:Prophets in the Hebrew Bible. Marcocapelle (talk) 14:18, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Tuvan independence activists

Nominator's rationale: Broaden this category so it can include other kinds of activists. Mason (talk) 04:22, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

People from Overseas France by ethnic or national origin

Nominator's rationale: rename for consistency with their subcategories which are all "by descent", as well as for consistency with Category:French people by descent at the top of the tree. Marcocapelle (talk) 03:23, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Suicide books

Nominator's rationale: Dual merge: These categories seem to be extremely overlapping Mason (talk) 02:16, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle: @NLeeuw: @Mason: I want to take a moment to clarify the nature of the category we're discussing. It appears there might have been a misunderstanding, and I'd like to ensure we're on the same page. The category in question pertains to books on the topic of DIY suicide. These books delve into sensitive and potentially dangerous instructions related to suicide. As such, they carry a significant degree of risk and responsibility. It's important to recognize that their content can have serious implications for individuals who may be vulnerable or in distress. Given the sensitive nature of this subject matter, it's understandable that there may be concerns regarding the availability and promotion of such materials. Our intention is not to offend or upset, but rather to approach this topic with caution and consideration for the well-being of all individuals involved. I apologize if there was any confusion regarding the purpose or scope of this category. Geysirhead (talk) 06:06, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Georgetown College (Kentucky)

Nominator's rationale: In line with the main article, Georgetown College. Graham (talk) 02:08, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
