January 4

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

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: speedy close / withdrawn. The correct nomination is on the next day's page. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:05, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
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)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

Churches by city (Italy, dual merge)

more categories nominated
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)[reply]

Churches by city (Italy, 1 merge target)

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.

Category:WWE Hall of Fame (1994) 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)[reply]
No other HOF class is broken out like this. For example Category:National Baseball Hall of Fame inductees. 191 articles in a category is not especially large.--TM 23:33, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Indian beatboxers

Nominator's rationale: Only one category article in the article. JDDJS (talk to mesee what I've done) 01:41, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

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.
