NEW NOMINATIONS
Category:BBC 100 Women
- Propose deleting Category:BBC 100 Women - Template:Lc1
- Propose deleting Category:BBC 100 Women - Template:Lc1
- Nominator's rationale: While the list article may be notable enough (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/100 Women (BBC)) we only categorize people by honours when those are considered to be defining. In this case, we have notable women merely named to a BBC list--and that would fall short of the required level of defining-ness for a category. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:29, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
- Indeed until Dec. 8 it the article is the basis for an Edit-a-thon Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red/Meetup/29 -- but as we know, categories are a different thing altogether and this falls afoul of both WP:OCAWARD and WP:TOPTEN, I believe. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:39, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per Shawn in Montreal. 2A00:23C4:A683:6A00:C414:D65C:FA3:A059 (talk) 17:45, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
Category:Mayors of Yorba Linda, California
- Nominator's rationale: Category has just one entry. Mayors of this this size community aren't automatically notable. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:11, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:SMALLCAT. Part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme, ‹The template Cat is being considered for merging.› Category:Mayors by city in the United States. Armbrust The Homunculus 16:22, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
- Merge but also to the California mayors category. Local politicians are usually NN, so that the rule requiring a minimum population of perhaps 5 should still apply. Many precedents exist for such merger. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:59, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
