August 17

NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:Free Linux distributions

Nominator's rationale: "Free" is ambiguous as most Linux distributions are free of charge, there is only one subcategory: Free software only Linux distributions and that being more specific, this category obviously isn't needed. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 08:56, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Housing struggles in South Africa

Nominator's rationale: upmerge, Category:Housing by country is an established tree, while Category:Housing struggles by country is not. It is also not super clear what "struggles" means. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:50, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Esperanto by country

Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:SMALLCAT, the Czech and Slovak categories together contain only two articles plus each a subcategory. No need to merge, the two articles are already in Category:Esperanto meetings. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:17, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and populate. I have used Petscan to add UK and US categories and to find more articles for the 2 listed. 'By country' subcats are not controversial (and interesting in this case). Oculi (talk) 07:52, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Secoding above. Categories for other countries can be added and SK and CZ can be populated. Per country divisions are usual. Thank you for the note, Marcocapelle.--Jetam2 (talk) 10:30, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
