The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 17:34, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT. Categories contain only 2-3 articles and aren't likely to significantly grow in the near future. No opposition to recreation if more articles exist. User:Namiba 13:33, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: keep. This is not "no consensus", because the rationale against the nomination seems to have persuaded the later participants. – Fayenatic London 10:50, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per main article kunoichi and marking it as a specific gendered occupation. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 08:17, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: keep. – Fayenatic London 10:37, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEF, gender is not defining for fictional athletes unless the occupation is gendered (there is a category for that already). Category:Fictional female ninja should be renamed as Category:Fictional kunoichi, marking it as a specific gendered occupation, and thus it is defining and should not be deleted.

The result of the discussion was: merge to Category:Mental and behavioural disorders. – Fayenatic London 10:35, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The current category name is in a strange subset format that I haven't seen elsewhere on here. ~ฅ(ↀωↀ=)neko-channyan 05:58, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge. I checked the members and they are all Indo-Trinidadians, except for one who I re-categorised as being of that descent. – Fayenatic London 09:19, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I've never really been sure what to make of this category, since there's no Hindavi or Hindavi people article to help understand. It is used as a category for Indo-Trinidadian people, and is a subcat of category:Trinidad and Tobago people of Indian descent. The first problem is that I've never heard us described that way. Hindavi redirects to a dab page, which lists Hindustani language as a possible target. But linguistically, Indo-Trinidadians were primarily Bhojpuri speakers; though commonly called "Hindi" in Trinidad and Tobago, Bhojpuri is an Eastern Indo-Aryan language while Hindustani is is classified as a Central Indo-Aryan language, so as I understand it, this category as applied is both incorrect and WP:OR.
