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.

Discussion for Today

December 25

NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:People from Doubravice nad Svitavou

Propose merging Category:People from Doubravice nad Svitavou to Category:People from Blansko District

Nominator's rationale: Category with just one entry. Lost in Quebec (talk) 10:07, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2100s and 2110s

Propose deleting Category:2100s in film (1 C)
Propose deleting Category:2100s works (1 C)
Propose deleting Category:2100s in mass media (1 C)
Propose deleting Category:2114 (1 C)
Propose deleting Category:2110s in mass media (1 C)

Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory each. Merging isn't needed, the subcategories are kept in the decade tree anyway. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:54, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Deaths from cerebrovascular disease

Propose containerizing Category:Deaths from cerebrovascular disease (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: containerize, the articles directly in this category are usually about people who died by stroke, which is a far too common cause of death to categorize by. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:31, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Leftover mosques categories

Propose merging Category:Mosques completed in 1678 (1) to Category:Mosques completed in the 1670s and Category:Buildings and structures completed in 1678
Propose merging Category:Mosques completed in 1677 (1) to Category:Mosques completed in the 1670s and Category:Buildings and structures completed in 1677
Propose merging Category:Mosques completed in 1675 (1) to Category:Mosques completed in the 1670s and Category:Buildings and structures completed in 1675

Nominator's rationale: Follow-up to Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2024 December 12#Mosques 1200-1900; three single-member categories which were inadvertently excluded from the list. BlasterOfHouses (HouseBlaster's alt • talk • he/they) 06:43, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per precedent. They are new categories created after the nomination in the previous discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:26, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Cestidae

Propose merging Category:Cestidae to Category:Cestida

Nominator's rationale: Cestida is a monotypic order, containing only the family Cestidae. jlwoodwa (talk) 02:35, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Deceased Everest summiters

Propose splitting Category:Deceased Everest summiters to Category:Mountaineering deaths on Mount Everest and Category:Summiters of Mount Everest

Nominator's rationale: Selective merge. These are just summiters who are now deceased. For example, Rick Allen (mountaineer) died on K2. Gary Ball died on Dhaulagiri. ^SMason_Garrison 01:52, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Split per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:27, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Deaths on Scottish mountains

Propose renaming Category:Deaths on Scottish mountains to Category:Mountaineering deaths in Scotland

Nominator's rationale: From looking at the deaths, these are all Mountaineering deaths. Sibling is Category:Mountaineering deaths in Nepal. This is boardline CDC ^SMason_Garrison 01:47, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rename per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:28, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
