If process guidelines are met, move categories to the appropriate section here to prepare to delete.

Before deleting a category, please ensure that it is empty.

Please help keep this page clean! Listings that have already been dealt with need to be removed quickly. When all of the entries in a category have been updated, move the listing to the "Ready for deletion" section for an administrator to finish.

The templates needed for closing discussions and details of the procedure can be found here.


Bots

Bots task pages are listed below. Tasks on those pages are being handled by bots, and may or may not also be listed below.


Procedure


Discussions awaiting closure


To be emptied or moved

The following categories meet the requirements 1) for deletion but are not empty, or 2) for renaming/moving. You can still review discussions, which have been moved to archive pages (in particularly controversial cases, discussion may be left intact on this page instead). This section is meant to be a summary with no discussion. Some cleanup links have been moved to bots task pages listed above. You may find it helpful to use the software WP:AWB in re-categorisation.

Administrators: Please take care to note whether or not the discussion suggests the category may need to be split among multiple destination categories, the category should be converted into a list, or there are any other special circumstances that preclude a bot from blindly implementing the decision.

Old by month categories with entries

This section lists old maintenance categories that should be empty but are not. This can result from reversions of pageges, incomplete nominations, bot errors, or pending manual work.

Ready for deletion

The categories below meet the eligibility requirements for deletion at the top of this page. These categories have been de-populated, and any documentation of this decision completed. Administrators may delete these categories at will (do not delete the log page). If there is a particular category that is replacing the deleted category (redundant, misspelled, etc.) as noted below, that should be mentioned in the deletion log entry.

The category to be deleted is listed first, followed by the category that renders it obsolete.

Note. Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion lists categories that are empty and might be eligible for speedy deletion. Categories that were emptied out of process should probably be listed for a full CfD discussion.

Empty but do not delete

This is for "parent" categories which need members removed, but not the sub-categories. After a category is empty, simply remove it from the list.

Please link to the per-day page that has the discussion on it.

  • None currently

Already deleted but not empty

This is for categories which have already been deleted, but which still have members in them that need to be removed from the category. Policy is not established on what to do about users who re-add themselves to categories that have been deleted, so any such removals should be treated with caution.
