67. Category:Professional wrestlers who use Asian mist: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Mr. C.C. (talk · contribs) 17:30, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Narrow in subject and non-defining. We don't have other categories were the subject as ever used a specific move. The category description indicates a huge inclusion criteria of using a specific move. "This category is for all professional wrestlers who, at some point, used Asian mist."
68. Category:Professional wrestlers who boxed amateurly and professionally: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Davidgoodheart (talk · contribs) 17:36, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Why do we need people who are at the triple intersection of three sports?
69. Category:Expatriates from the Spanish Empire: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Johnpacklambert (talk · contribs) 18:11, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

    • Reason: Do we really need to diffuse by level of educator? Do we have middle school, elementary school? This just doesn't need to be very defining

79. Category:People involved in race and intelligence controversies: nominated at CfDS (C2E); New name: Category:People associated with race and intelligence controversies 21:16, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Realized that this name implies that each person is directly involved in the controversy (or advocating that there are genetic between group differences). A subset of folks in here do work that effectively argues the opposite (or folks who are actively involved in demonstrating that the differences aren't caused by race.
80. Template:Editnotices/Page/List of Russian Earth scientists: nominated at RM (technical); New name: Template:Editnotices/Page/List of Russian earth scientists 00:17, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

81. Category:Fijian geoscientists: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Fijian earth scientists 00:26, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: all siblings are in Earth scientists by nationality, and are called FOOian earth scientists. (and not FOOian Category:Geoscientists. The category description of Earth sciences reads "Earth science (also known as geoscience, the geosciences, or the Earth sciences) includes all the sciences related to the planet Earth.

96. Category:Dutch people of the Eighty Years' War (Spanish Empire): nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:???; notified Neddyseagoon (talk · contribs) 22:40, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: From the category description this is supposed to be for Dutch people who served the Spanish Empire during the Eight Years War. The current name doesn't convey that's the relationship.
      I don't have a good rename suggestion, but I think the current version is confusing.

     • Reason: I think we should rename this category to use the more inclusive and commonly used term of LGBT. The rename would also be more consistent with the other Nazi era category (Category:LGBT people in the Nazi Party‎)
104. Category:Jewish businesspeople: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified EytanMelech (talk · contribs) 16:41, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: My speedy delete nomination was declined [1] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2008_July_8) because there have been more recent mixed opinions of the intersection of being Jewish and several occupations. I think that this category is problematic under EGRS given that it is primarily based on a stereotype rather than a defining intersection. I also think that several child categories have been deleted over the same concern. (I think that Jewish Bankers is an exception because of the historical context of banking in Europe being a non-Christian occupation because of usury)
105. Category:19th-century Austrian biblical scholars: nominated at CfD (CfS); splitting to Category:19th-century biblical scholars, Category:Austrian biblical scholars; notified DJKinsella (talk · contribs) 21:45, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: isolated underpopulated category, that doesn't really need to be diffused by century
106. Category:19th-century British biblical scholars: nominated at CfD (CfS); splitting to Category:British biblical scholars, Category:19th-century British writers; notified DJKinsella (talk · contribs) 21:45, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
107. Category:Fictional Alta California people: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Samantha Ireland (talk · contribs) 23:14, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: Single category member, and not corresponding Category:Alta California people
108. Category:Fictional people from the Austro-Hungarian empire: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Fictional people from Austria-Hungary; notified HansBrooke97 (talk · contribs) 23:16, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: Delete for now. I think there's no need to have a category with a single person in it. If not deleted, I think we should rename it to match the parent Cateogry:People from Austria-Hungary
109. Category:Military personnel of the Middle Ages: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Medieval military personnel; notified Hugo999 (talk · contribs) 23:40, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: I think we should rename this to be consistent with other Medieval occupations. Notably all the child categories are Medieval FOO military personnel
110. Category:6th-century soldiers: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Medieval soldiers; notified Zoupan (talk · contribs) 05:25, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: Upmerge for now. Isolated category that's not helpful for navigation.
111. Category:Russians associated with interference in the 2016 United States elections: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Russian people associated with interference in the 2016 United States elections 01:37, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: Norm is FOOian people
112. Category:Russian women of World War I: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:Russian women in World War I 01:50, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: siblings in Category:Women in World War I by nationality are all women in WWI (notably the parent Russian people of World War I and siblings all follow Category:People of World War I by nationality)
113. Category:American veterans activists: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:American veterans' rights activists; notified FieldMarine (talk · contribs) 03:40, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: Overlapping categories
114. Category:Bombing of the Gaza Strip: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Israeli airstrikes during the Israel–Hamas war; notified Family27390 (talk · contribs) 04:10, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: This category has a lot of overlap with the parent category. I think a better name would be Category:Israeli airstrikes during the Israel–Hamas war, which more closely mirrors sibling categories like Category:American airstrikes during the Syrian civil war
115. Category:12th-century Scottish Roman Catholic clergy: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:12th-century Scottish Roman Catholic priests 05:29, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: The norm is that XXXth-century FOOian Roman Catholic clergy should be named XXXth-century FOOian Roman Catholic priests. There was more recent movement on this, but I can only seem to dig up this older one Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2009_February_11
116. Category:12th-century Indian sculptors: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:12th-century Indian artists; notified Roland zh (talk · contribs) 01:50, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

117. Category:Essays about biology: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Scientific essays; notified Fadesga (talk · contribs) 12:02, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: Smaller underpopulated category. I've already added the lone page to Biology books‎
118. Category:British military personnel of the Nine Years' War: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:English military personnel of the Nine Years' War; notified Neddyseagoon (talk · contribs) 01:28, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: The Nine Years' War lasted from September 27, 1688, to September 20, 1697, which was before Great Britain became a nation. Notablly 17th-century English military personnel is a parent
119. Category:British military personnel killed in action in the Nine Years' War: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:English military personnel killed in action in the Nine Years' War; notified Neddyseagoon (talk · contribs) 01:29, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

     • Reason: Upmerge for now. This category only has one person it in, which isn't helpful for navigation. I urge the category creator to only create categories that can be populated.
121. Category:Indonesian feminist writers: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Indonesian feminists; notified AgisdeSparte (talk · contribs) 23:53, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

     • Reason: I think we should rename and reparent this category because there's no Kloto Prefecture category.
124. Category:Social movements in Togo: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified AgisdeSparte (talk · contribs) 00:19, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: Redundant category layer

     • Reason: Redundant/overlapping category layer
126. Category:National security of Togo: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified AgisdeSparte (talk · contribs) 00:26, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: There are numerous redundant category layers for a single page Agence nationale des renseignements (Togo)

     • Reason: Upmerge for now. There are not enough people in this tree to justify diffusion.
130. Category:Togolese business executives: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Togolese businesspeople; notified AgisdeSparte (talk · contribs) 00:30, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
131. Category:Togolese founders: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified AgisdeSparte (talk · contribs) 00:34, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: redundant category layer
132. Category:Participant in the First Council of Nicaea: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Participants in the First Council of Nicaea; notified AgisdeSparte (talk · contribs) 00:40, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: I think these should be plural, but I'd like to get someone's opinion who is familiar with these councils
133. Category:Participant in the Second Council of Constantinople: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Participants in the Second Council of Constantinople; notified AgisdeSparte (talk · contribs) 00:40, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

     • Reason: Upmerge for now. There's only one occupation in here, and it seems unlikely that this category will be needed anytime soon.
137. Category:Imperial Army (Holy Roman Empire) personnel: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Military personnel of the Holy Roman Empire; notified Johnpacklambert (talk · contribs) 23:35, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

     • Reason: Upmerge. This category is extremely narrow, has only one person in it, and neither of these nations presently exist.
139. Category:Literary critics by ethnicity: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Literary critics; notified Super Dromaeosaurus (talk · contribs) 01:14, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

140. Category:Liberal theorists: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Carchasm (talk · contribs) 02:22, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: This category is vague. And extremely similar categories have been purged Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_June_3#Classical_liberals

145. Category:Iranian refugee and immigrant athletes: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Iranian refugees; notified Claggy (talk · contribs) 23:53, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
146. Category:Martial arts medalists for Iran: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Martial arts medalists; notified Claggy (talk · contribs) 00:13, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: Category created by a banned user, as well as a redundant/non-defining category. (here the category includes any medalist, not a specific medal)
147. Category:Victims of Iran's November 2019 protests: nominated at CfDS (C2C); New name: Category:People killed in the 2019–2020 Iranian protests 00:16, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: parent is Category:People killed in protests in Iran, and sibling is People killed in the Mahsa Amini protests‎
148. Category:16th-century Peruvian poets: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:16th-century poets; notified Icarusgeek (talk · contribs) 01:43, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

150. Category:English expatriates in the Thirteen Colonies: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Johnpacklambert (talk · contribs) 03:22, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
     • Reason: The only category member is described as a "colonist in the short-lived Saybrook Colony", which by definition is isn't an expatriate
151. Category:Printers from the Thirteen Colonies: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Colonial American printers; notified Johnpacklambert (talk · contribs) 03:26, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

1. Category:15th-century Polish–Lithuanian nobility: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Aciram (talk · contribs) 23:16, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This nation doesn't exist in the 15th-century. Per Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth "Commonwealth was established as a single entity by the Union of Lublin on 1 July 1569."
2. Category:7th-century Indian architects: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:7th-century architects; notified Roland zh (talk · contribs) 20:47, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

4. Category:Ashoka Morocco Fellows: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Social entrepreneurs; notified Taylorluker (talk · contribs) 22:17, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: WP:OCAWARD this is not a defining award. The selection criteria notes that "Ashoka supports social entrepreneurs who have begun to implement their work, have achieved positive impact, and are ready to scale up nationally or internationally". This is more of a network than a defining award. https://www.ashoka.org/en-tr/recommend-ashoka-fellow
5. Category:Ashoka Fellows: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Social entrepreneurs; notified Taylorluker (talk · contribs) 22:17, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

   • Reason: Upmerge. This category only has (and can ever have) one person it it. Per Alabama Territory "William Wyatt Bibb (1781–1820) of Georgia was the only territorial governor, later elected to that position after statehood." Accordingly, this category is unhelpful for navigation.
10. Category:Armenian male writers by century: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Armenian male writers; notified Thedarkknightli (talk · contribs) 20:39, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

11. Category:Historical novelists by genre: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Historical novelists; notified Elan Morin Tedronai (talk · contribs) 00:02, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: I think that we should upmerge this to the parent category. There's only one "genre" in here. And I'm not really confident that nautical is really a genre.
12. Category:20th-century Indonesian novelists: nominated at CfD (CfS); splitting to Category:Indonesian novelists, Category:20th-century Indonesian writers; notified AgisdeSparte (talk · contribs) 00:04, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

31. Category:Arab supporters of Israel: nominated at CfD (CfR); renaming to Category:Arab Zionists; notified Brewcrewer (talk · contribs) 03:29, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
