The result of the discussion was: keep. (non-admin closure) Asmodea Oaktree (talk) 10:27, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. I will redirect the nominated category to discourage its re-creation. – Fayenatic London 17:33, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename. I will redirect the old name to avoid its being re-created. – Fayenatic London 17:31, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: "Award-winning films" is a too broad and non-defining a characteristic, its child category "List of films by award". It should be clear that this is only a container category. ★Trekker (talk) 19:35, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
TBH, ★Trekker, I have absolutely no time at all for awards and would delete the lot if I possibly could. You are right that there is a distinction between won and nominated so I take your point there, hence the strikethrough. Thanks. No Great Shaker (talk) 20:32, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, @1857a, I'm open to how to figure this out. What would be a better category? If a person has been fired for refusing a COVID vaccine, isn't that defining? —valereee (talk) 18:08, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: arguably, Category:Poe family (United States) are better known. In any case, some disambiguation is preferable. Grutness...wha? 08:05, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: soft delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 01:21, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: At first glance, this category seemed to be totally redundant with Category:Optical signal connectors, which is itself redundant with Category:Fiber-optic connectors. The former was created by the same user on the same day as the subject of this CfD, though. Given its inclusion in Category:Joining and the inclusion of things like Light tube, which are not "optical connectors" as the term is usually used, I'm guessing the user meant to create a category for things that join or connect things through light. If we need such a category, I suggest renaming it to something like Category:Optical connections. It is not clear to me that we need a category for this, though, so deletion is also an option.
Most of Category:Joining deals with methods for creating mechanical attachment between things. I'm not sure broadening the category to include all means of "joining" anything to anything else is wise. Srleffler (talk) 20:08, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Marcocapelle (talk) 05:28, 19 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]
Since the above hasn't generated any discussion, I propose that we simply delete this category as redundant.--Srleffler (talk) 20:14, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
