Nominator's rationale: This seems non-defining. We don't typically categorize people by who they've politically supported or given money to. BDD (talk) 17:34, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: as per offspring Category:Sexuality and gender-related slurs, per initial category explanatory content: "Articles related to prejudices based on [[gender]] and [[Sexual orientation|sexuality]]." and per accuracy. Its not, for instance, about sexual preference and the prejudicing of personal choice not to consider one gender in relationship. GregKaye 12:36, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Gender-based violence

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:  Relisted at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2016 January 18. Relisting due to the fact the category was not tagged. -- Black Falcon (talk) 00:57, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
or move to: Category:Sexuality and gender-related violence
Nominator's rationale: While the majority of the category content relates to gender related violence (► Rape‎ (11 C, 53 P) ► Transphobic violence‎ (3 C, 10 P) ► Violence against men‎ (7 C, 19 P) ► Violence against women‎ (18 C, 73 P)) sexuality based violence remains a huge issue especially in Africa, the Middle East and Asia, but in situations where a potential victim is forced to keep a low profile for the sake of safety and within situations in which executions etc. may be interpreted to have been poorly reported. I think that either a split or a move would be beneficial. GregKaye 12:36, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm wondering if this can be accomplished by being bold and adding sub-categories to the existing category. This seems like a complex split for a closing admin to manage. RevelationDirect (talk) 02:14, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move not all the items or subcats now in this are gender-related, rather than sex-related (not synonymous). An example: rape. In many jurisdictions rape may be committed by any gender against a victim of any gender (same as fraud, robbery, etc.). What differentiates rape is sex, not gender. As fraud and robbery, etc., are mostly about property, not sex. Thus moving to something like Category:Sexually- and gender-related violence (not "Sexuality", as again "rape" may be committed for reasons of violence or control upon victims of any gender or "sexuality", or even lack "sexuality" like committed virgins) would be most in keeping with the current contents and purpose.

  • It may be that this umbrella's difficulty in definition is because we're trying to create some combination and title it that the real world doesn't use. If so, that's WP:OR or WP:SYNTH kind of. Dropping rape might simplify things, but it'll keep getting re-added I think by those who haven't been in on this discussion. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:43, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Marcocapelle to be honest I think both alternatives have their advantages with both being better than the existing situation. Whatever other editors and the closing admin think is good with me. Sorry if that wasn't helpful but I will keep the issue in mind. GregKaye 12:02, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:FA-Class National Football League/New York Giants subproject articles

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: delete. -- Black Falcon (talk) 00:46, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I tried to C1 one of these but it was rejected. Instead of wasting time, all these categories are empty because the actual template are putting them into the equivalent Category:FA-Class New York Giants articles and the like categories. Category:New York Giants articles by quality and Category:New York Giants articles by importance contains both similar categories even though only one is actually being used. Besides, that title is better than this one. Ricky81682 (talk) 07:20, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
To be more clear, these categories are and will always be empty because the template for NY Giants stuff goes into New York Giants articles classes so there is nothing in Category:Top-importance National Football League/New York Giants subproject articles because it's all in Category:Top-importance New York Giants articles. It's cleanup. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 04:55, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: keep without prejudice to a future -s rename proposal. Marcocapelle (talk) 10:01, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Recently-created category that seems redundant to Category:Debt collection Redrose64 (talk) 00:45, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
