November 28

NEW NOMINATIONS

Tamil-language television series debuts and endings

Nominator's rationale: All other “X television series debuts/endings” categories are by country, not by language. Tamil is spoken mostly in India. 2600:387:A:7:0:0:0:89 (talk) 19:06, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fictional television programming

Nominator's rationale:

Consistency with real TV show categories. Category:Fictional TV series is inappropriate because not all elements are TV series. In the second case, the elements are real TV shows that are works of fiction, not fictional shows that do not exist. The current members are all real TV shows involving God and angels. Other religions exist as well, and there is a Category:Religious television series with similar title but very different scope. 165.91.13.204 (talk) 16:56, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Family medicine

Nominator's rationale: The same thing by different names Rathfelder (talk) 14:44, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Indian sex gangs

Nominator's rationale: Created by me and was previously discussed at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2016_April_15#Category:Pakistani_sex_gangs. I was wrong one year back so wants a new consensus. Same for Category:Pakistani sex gangs. Störm (talk) 13:08, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:First Ladies and Gentlemen of Estonia

Nominator's rationale: Follow up this move. 90.191.76.154 (talk) 11:47, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Years and decades in Wales up to 1700

more categories nominated
Nominator's rationale: merge/delete per WP:SMALLCAT, the larger amount of categories only have one or two articles. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:32, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Jewish American mayors

Nominator's rationale: Standard NC in the mayors tree is "Mayors of places in Country", not "Demonym mayors". Bearcat (talk) 04:34, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Insufficient rationale. Follows the pattern of Category:Jewish American state governors of the United States, Category:Hispanic and Latino American mayors, Category:LGBT mayors of places in the United States and other similar cats. Appropriate renaming is ok though. Mhym (talk) 07:22, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Muslim dynasties

Nominator's rationale: Per MOS:ISLAMIC. Chicbyaccident (talk) 23:30, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Malayalam short stories

Nominator's rationale: Not enough articles to warrant a category. Kailash29792 (talk) 07:20, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Officer of the United States

Nominator's rationale: Too vague. Literally any executive branch politician from Thomas Jefferson (Secretary of State) to Karl Rove (Deputy Chief of Staff) could fit into this category. – JocularJellyfish TalkContribs 04:02, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete Officer of the United States covers a lot more territory than the executive branch, but when it comes down to it, anyone who is an "officer" is so by virtue of occupying some position which would prompt a more specific categorization, rendering this a huge container category of various US office-holders with no direct membership. I just don't see the point. Mangoe (talk) 16:28, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Rulers who died as children

Nominator's rationale: Category:Deaths by age-type category. 165.91.13.63 (talk) 02:46, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Meghan Markle

Nominator's rationale: Not enough content for an eponymous category. Why does this exist? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 01:34, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This probably got created because her fiancé has one — but he's got quite a lot more spinoff content than just the article about the upcoming nuptials, while she doesn't. She might certainly have more content to justify this in the future, but we don't create eponymous categories just because they might become more populated someday — we create them only when they already are more populated now.
