NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:Assamese Brahmins

Propose deleting Category:Assamese Brahmins - Template:Lc1

Nominator's rationale: This is a duplicate category of Brahmin communities of Assam. It should be deleted to ensure Brahmin categorisation is constant, keeping in–line with the Brahmin community categorisations for other Indian states, such as Brahmin communities of Uttarakhand etc... This is just adding to the clutter. Please action and delete this. No point of having two categories representing the same information. AnjanBorah (talk) 04:03, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Jacob Rees-Mogg

Propose deleting Category:Jacob Rees-Mogg - Template:Lc1

Nominator's rationale: Textbook case of overcategorisation, specifically relating to Eponymous categories for people (which are meant for "very notable cases"). It is important to remember that "Practically, even most notable people lack enough directly related articles or subcategories to populate eponymous categories effectively but Category:Barack Obama, Category:John Maynard Keynes and Category:Albert Einstein are some exceptions" - and this category contains just two articles - the BLP of the subject and an awful silly season article that was subject to an AfD which closed as no consensus with the option of a future merge. Clearly fails WP:SMALLCAT as well. AusLondonder (talk) 03:41, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, unneeded/unnecessary. Ivar the Boneful (talk) 05:23, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as creator. Indeed little growth available here, and wasn't aware of the 'very notable cases' guideline. 81.106.34.193 (talk) 06:17, 25 September 2017 (UTC) (User:My name is not dave on wikibreak)[reply]

Category:British Eurosceptics

Propose renaming Category:British Eurosceptics to Category:British eurosceptics

Nominator's rationale: Helper201 moved the category without resort to CFD/CFDS 10 days ago on the grounds "Grammatical correction" - but the parent category, Category:Eurosceptics is consistently named with the lower cases, which is grammatically correct. AusLondonder (talk) 01:14, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Use with a capital. I moved the mentioned page as it appeared obvious that it was incorrect. Almost every time I have seen the spelling it has been used with a capital. Note the page Euroscepticism consistently uses a capital 'E'. Wiktionary also states it as a capital. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Euroskeptic The Collins dictionary also gives it with a capital E, https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/eurosceptic

Category:All redirect templates

Propose merging Category:All redirect templates to Category:Redirect templates

Nominator's rationale: Pointless hidden category that contains content identical to Category:Redirect templates and isn't sortkeyed Pariah24 (talk) 00:45, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Notable Orthodox Churches North America

Propose deleting Category:Notable Orthodox Churches North America - Template:Lc1

Nominator's rationale: This is an unnecessary list, as by the virtue of existing on Wikipedia, all the listed churches are "notable". epicgenius (talk) 00:16, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nominator....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 01:22, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Big Ten Women's Soccer Tournament

Propose deleting Category:Big Ten Women's Soccer Tournament

Nominator's rationale: I created a different category at Category:Big Ten Conference Women's Soccer Tournament some time ago and never actually proposed the old one for deletion. The other category has a more accurate naming convention and is more consistent with the other categories. Jay eyem (talk) 00:58, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
