NEW NOMINATIONS

[edit]

Category:City

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Yet another questionable topic/set split. Part of the category loop Category:CityCategory:CitiesCategory:Metropolitan areasCategory:Urban areas, which will need to be broken — possibly by breaking the kink between "Metropolitan areas" and "Urban areas". –LaundryPizza03 (d) 03:31, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:1896 murders in Iran

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Category tree with only two articles –LaundryPizza03 (d) 03:16, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Disasters in Iran

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: There is surprisingly little content in this category tree, even in the more recent years. All of the CfD's below are for year subcategories of this one dedicated solely to terrorist attacks. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 03:12, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Terrorist incidents in Iran in 1994

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Category tree with one article –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:51, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Terrorist incidents in Iran in 1981

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Contains just 3 events. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:47, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Terrorist incidents in Iran in 1978

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Category tree that contains a single article, Cinema Rex fire. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:41, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:1917 disasters in Iran

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Collectively contain one article about a multi-year event (the Persian famine of 1917–1919) that is already in most of the relevant parents. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:27, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Animals in religion

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Categories are too similar, especially given the actual contents, and this is reflected by the presence of a category loop between the first pair. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:13, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Votia

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Votia redirects to Votians, and their overlap is replected by the presence of a category loop. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:00, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Human-Environment interaction

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Overlap with Category:Environmental sociology (reflecting the target of Human-Environment interaction) and Category:Human impact on the environment. The ostensible main article is Integrated geography. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 01:56, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose- Human-Environment interaction is one of the Four traditions of geography, originally refered to as the "Man-Land tradition." It is also one of the Five themes of geography. It is a geography topic and is distinct from sociology. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 02:22, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Modernity

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Categories are too similar, and this is reflected by the fact that they form a category loop. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 01:45, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Ethnographic museums in Israel

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Overlapping categories. The merge target is much older. SMasonGarrison 01:38, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
merge per nominator Andre🚐 02:06, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]


Category:Church buildings in fiction

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:30, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to all parents: This also includes Category:Fiction about Christianity and Category:Buildings and structures in fiction. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 01:32, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I still stand by my assertion. The Hunchback of Notre-Dame is already in Category:Works set in cathedrals, and is not directly in the category. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:15, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Baseball players from Edwards County, Texas

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Category with just two entries. Lost in Quebec (talk) 13:48, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
