WP:CFD/T

See Wikipedia:Categories for deletion policies for the official rules of this page, and how to do cleanup.

Deletion of a category may mean that the articles and images in it are directly put in its parent category, or that another subdivision of the parent category is made. If they are already members of more suitable categories, it may also mean that they become a member of one category less.

How to use this page

Know if the category you are looking at needs deleting (or to be created). If it is a "red link" and has no articles or subcategories, then it is already deleted (more likely, it was never really created in the first place), and does not need to be listed here.
Read and understand Wikipedia:Categorization before using this page. Nominate categories that violate policies here, or are misspelled, mis-capitalized, redundant/need to be merged, not NPOV, small without potential for growth, or are generally bad ideas. (See also Wikipedia:Naming conventions and Wikipedia:Manual of Style.)
Please read the Wikipedia:Categorization of people policy if nominating or voting on a people-related category.
Unless the category to be deleted is non-controversial – vandalism or a duplicate, for example – please do not depopulate the category (remove the tags from articles) before the community has made a decision.
Add {{cfd}} to the category page for deletion. (If you are recommending that the category be renamed, you may also add a note giving the suggested new name.) This will add a message to it, and also put the page you are nominating into Category:Categories for deletion. It's important to do this to help alert people who are watching or browsing the category.
1. Alternately, use the rename template like this: {{cfr|newname}}
2. If you are concerned with a stub category, make sure to inform the WikiProject Stub sorting
Add new deletion candidates under the appropriate day near the top of this page.
1. Alternatively, if the category is a candidate for speedy renaming (see Wikipedia:Category renaming), add it to the speedy category at the bottom.
Make sure you add a colon (:) in the link to the category being listed, like [[:Category:Foo]]. This makes the category link a hard link which can be seen on the page (and avoids putting this page into the category you are nominating).
Sign any listing or vote you make by typing ~~~~ after your text.
Link both categories to delete and categories to merge into. Failure to do this will delay consideration of your suggestion.

Special notes

Some categories may be listed in Category:Categories for deletion but accidently not listed here.

NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:Musical instrument manufacturer templates

Propose renaming Category:Musical instrument manufacturer templates to Category:Musical instrument manufacturer navigational boxes

Nominator's rationale: Right now this only contains navboxes, and copying all of these to Category:Musical instrument navigational boxes would appear counterproductive. 1234qwer 1234qwer 4 05:43, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:21st-century North Korean LGBTQ people

Propose merging Category:21st-century North Korean LGBTQ people to Category:21st-century LGBTQ people
Propose merging Category:20th-century North Korean LGBTQ people to Category:20th-century LGBTQ people and Category:20th-century North Korean people

Nominator's rationale: Dual upmerge for now. There's only one person in these categories ^SMason_Garrison 03:00, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per nom. The article then still remains in Category:North Korean gay men. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:17, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Athletics (track and field) venues in Fiji

Propose deleting Category:Athletics (track and field) venues in Fiji (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: WP:NONDEF. The lone article is a multi-purpose stadium primarily used for rugby and football. –Aidan721 (talk) 01:11, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:18, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Dams in Fiji

Propose merging Category:Dams in Fiji (2) to Category:Dams in Oceania and Category:Water in Fiji

Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:20, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
