Keep: This is inane. The EC recognized the unique nature of the Camino de Santiago in 1987 as it's First European Cultural Itinerary. Bristol is not unique being on motorways, roadways and canals. However, there are dozens of towns which have been on a unique pilgrimage path which has been walked by a billion people over the last 1200 years. While no one would say the A3 was unique among roadways, the Camino de Santiago (Road of St James) has determined the location, population, economic and spiritual life of dozens of towns for the past millenia and does so uniquely to this day. Three hundred thousand people walk this path every year and a million did annually during the middle ages. The towns of Hornillos del Camino, Sarria, Castrojeriz, Arzua and Puente la Reina all are in distinct provinces and yet all have been intimately shaped for the past millennia because they are on the Camino de Santiago. These towns should be grouped under one unique category to identify the cultural, religious and economic affects of this unique path. The sub-categories as listed identify sub-pathways, both historic and modern which provide additional experiences for pilgrims. All should be retained.

There is a category for the Camino de Santiago. I have attempted to keep it as a super category with information about the historical, cultural and religious aspects of the pilgrimage (as well as the modern and medieval paths). Since this pilgrimage involves walking 800 plus kilometers and has affected dozens of towns along the way, I created a category to identify all those towns and include other specific sites associated with the different paths. Each specific subpath also has a subcategory to identify those along that path specifically. These towns were located where they are because of the path. The religious life of this region was defined by the Camino. The European Community recognized the uniqueness of this path and specifically marked the different paths in 1987. Unlike the A3 through Bristol, the Camino de Santiago was named as the EC's First European Cultural Itinerary. It is insipid to claim that permitting a category for towns who's foundation and entire life is dependent on the Camino should not be grouped together. JJ Hantsch 02:32, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
Nominator's rationale: This category is populated by substitutions of {{User:Subha WMF/Invite}}. It contains the user talk pages of 100+ users who received the "Do you need help?" notice during a single run on 24 April 2012. While the category may have served a purpose in the past, it is no longer useful to continue grouping these users based on a nearly 6-year-old notice. If kept, then rename to the shorter form, Category:Wikipedians who were invited to edit Wikipedia. (Pinging User:Psubhashish as the category's creator.) -- Black Falcon(talk)19:14, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: There is no such thing as "tenure" on Wikipedia, and thus no need for a grouping of "tenured" editors. I am concerned this could mislead newer editors into thinking users in this category have a privileged status. -- Black Falcon(talk)05:25, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
