Category:Volleyball clubs disestablished in 2018
- Nominator's rationale: Not part of any series. I don't think we have enough articles on defunct volleyball clubs to justify a set of by-year disestablishment categories. Petcsan shows only 30 volleyball clubs categorised in Category:Sports clubs by year of disestablishment, which is not really enough for even a viable set of by-decade categories.

Category:Dutch academics
- Propose merging Category:Dutch academics to Category:Dutch academic researchers
- Nominator's rationale: This is the only nationality subcategory of Category:Researchers. There is a well populated category tree of academics. Academics are not always researchers, but most of them are, and there are subcats for administrators. Rathfelder (talk) 20:46, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Reverse merge - is what the nom means, I think, except the wrong one is tagged. Category:Dutch academics is perfectly fine, subcat of Category:Academics by nationality. Category:Dutch academic researchers is not fine as there is no Category:Academic researchers. Perhaps a 2nd merge is needed, to Category:Researchers or subcats thereof. Oculi (talk) 22:05, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
Category:Christian denominations active in Germany
- Nominator's rationale: upmerge per WP:OVERLAPCAT, the scope of this category largely overlaps with its parent category. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:39, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Upmerge per nom. Brandmeistertalk 20:46, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete both I just do not see a justification of categorizing The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by every country it has a presence in. This is the type of thing that can be handled by a list, but not an article. Even more so because categories always apply. So for example The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints article would have to be put in categories where it once operated but does not currently. This is just a headache causing mess as a category, but manageable and doable with by country list articles, that can specify things like times of operation, number and percentage of adherents, number of congregations and related useful statistics.John Pack Lambert (talk) 08:07, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
Category:First events
- Nominator's rationale: Redundant to what we already have (Category:Introductions, Category:Establishments, Category:Debuts, etc), as such WP:OVERLAPCAT. The inclusion criteria are also shaky, producing a mishmash of various unrelated articles. Brandmeistertalk 16:47, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
Category:DtBPageS
- Nominator's rationale: He can see the same via Special:PrefixIndex/Dibyendutwipzbiswas. There's no need to create such a category.( Per Lourdes). Siddiqsazzad001 <Talk/> 13:58, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
Churches by city (Italy, dual merge)
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Alcamo to Category:Buildings and structures in Alcamo and Category:Churches in the province of Trapani
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Ancona to Category:Buildings and structures in Ancona and Category:Churches in the Province of Ancona
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Arezzo to Category:Buildings and structures in Arezzo and Category:Churches in the province of Arezzo
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Ascoli Piceno to Category:Buildings and structures in Ascoli Piceno and Category:Churches in the Province of Ascoli Piceno
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Assisi to Category:Buildings and structures in Assisi and Category:Churches in the province of Perugia
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Bari to Category:Buildings and structures in Bari and Category:Churches in the metropolitan city of Bari
- Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, all the above categories only contain 1 article and/or 1 (Roman Catholic) subcategory. See also this earlier nomination which is still open. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:40, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
Churches by city (Italy, 1 merge target)

- Propose merging Category:Churches in Cagli to Category:Churches in the Province of Pesaro and Urbino
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Carmignano to Category:Churches in the province of Prato
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Camporotondo di Fiastrone to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Chieri to Category:Churches in the province of Turin
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Cingoli to Category:Churches in the Province of Macerata
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Marsico Nuovo to Category:Churches in the province of Potenza

- Propose merging Category:Churches in Pescia to Category:Churches in the province of Pistoia

- Propose merging Category:Churches in Riccia to Category:Churches in the province of Campobasso
- Propose merging Category:Churches in Sarzana to Category:Churches in the province of La Spezia
- Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, all the above categories only contain 1 article and/or 1 (Roman Catholic) subcategory. In the above cases one merge target has been specified, because there is no category tree for the town, e.g. Category:Acqui Terme and Category:Buildings and structures in Acqui Terme do not exist.

- Propose merging Category:WWE Hall of Fame (2017) inductees to Category:WWE Hall of Fame inductees
- Propose merging Category:WWE Hall of Fame (2018) inductees to Category:WWE Hall of Fame inductees
- Nominator's rationale: WP:OCAT The year in which one is inducted into a Hall of Fame is non-defining. TM 03:01, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Question is the Hall of Fame defining at all? Marcocapelle (talk) 07:10, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Clearly defining, Gene Okerlund just died and mainstream articles open their headlines with his WWE Hall of Fame status, NBC News: Top WWE interviewer and Hall of Famer 'Mean Gene' Okerlund dies at 76, USA Today: WWE Hall of Famer 'Mean' Gene Okerlund dies at age 76, BET: WWE Hall Of Fame Interviewer ‘Mean’ Gene Okerlund Dies At Age 76, Post and Courier: ‘Mean Gene’ Okerlund, Hall of Fame pro wrestling announcer, dead at 76.LM2000 (talk) 10:08, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- That's more in response to Marcocapelle's question. I believe it was Galatz who split them by year after the main category was filled will all of the individual inductees.LM2000 (talk) 12:51, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I believe it was *Treker who broke them out but I support the split. Looking at it, a combined category would have 191 pages in it, the split appears warranted to me. - Galatz גאליץשיחה Talk 14:11, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Yes it is defining as I am sure that one day there will be a real WWE hall of fame building, and years should be kept split up as well. Davidgoodheart (talk) 10:03, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
Category:Indian beatboxers
- Propose merging Category:Indian beatboxers to Category:Beatboxers
- Nominator's rationale: Only one
categoryarticle in the article. JDDJS (talk to me • see what I've done) 01:41, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- I assume you mean "only one article in the category"?★Trekker (talk) 03:34, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Yes. Corrected. JDDJS (talk to me • see what I've done) 14:41, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Question, shouldn't it also be merged to Category:Indian hip hop singers? Marcocapelle (talk) 15:23, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
Category:Iceage
- Nominator's rationale: Overcategorization per WP:OCEPON and numerous precedent at CfD. Typically, a few members of the band would need articles and perhaps a discography page exists too before the need for an eponymous parent category.
