See Wikipedia:Categories for deletion policies for the official rules of this page, and how to do cleanup.

Deletion of a category may mean that the articles and images in it are directly put in its parent category, or that another subdivision of the parent category is made. If they are already members of more suitable categories, it may also mean that they become a member of one category less.

How to use this page

Know if the category you are looking at needs deleting (or to be created). If it is a "red link" and has no articles or subcategories, then it is already deleted (more likely, it was never really created in the first place), and does not need to be listed here.
Read and understand Wikipedia:Categorization before using this page. Nominate categories that violate policies here, or are misspelled, mis-capitalized, redundant/need to be merged, not NPOV, small without potential for growth, or are generally bad ideas. (See also Wikipedia:Naming conventions and Wikipedia:Manual of Style.)
Please read the Wikipedia:Categorization of people policy if nominating or voting on a people-related category.
Unless the category to be deleted is non-controversial – vandalism or a duplicate, for example – please do not depopulate the category (remove the tags from articles) before the community has made a decision.
Add {{cfd}} to the category page for deletion. (If you are recommending that the category be renamed, you may also add a note giving the suggested new name.) This will add a message to it, and also put the page you are nominating into Category:Categories for deletion. It's important to do this to help alert people who are watching or browsing the category.
1. Alternately, use the rename template like this: {{cfr|newname}}
2. If you are concerned with a stub category, make sure to inform the WikiProject Stub sorting
Add new deletion candidates under the appropriate day near the top of this page.
1. Alternatively, if the category is a candidate for speedy renaming (see Wikipedia:Category renaming), add it to the speedy category at the bottom.
Make sure you add a colon (:) in the link to the category being listed, like [[:Category:Foo]]. This makes the category link a hard link which can be seen on the page (and avoids putting this page into the category you are nominating).
Sign any listing or vote you make by typing ~~~~ after your text.
Link both categories to delete and categories to merge into. Failure to do this will delay consideration of your suggestion.

Special notes

Some categories may be listed in Category:Categories for deletion but accidently not listed here.

NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:¡Uno! ¡Dos! ¡Tré!

Propose deleting Category:¡Uno! ¡Dos! ¡Tré! (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: There is no scheme to categorize songs from a series of albums by that series. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 22:39, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Split to Category:¡Uno!, Category:¡Dos!, and Category:¡Tré!. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 15:53, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I know there's Category:American Idiot but that's because there are more related articles beyond the songs from the album itself. Is there a need to begin having categories for songs by album? Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 19:17, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Split or delete?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 08:03, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, we have Category:Green Day songs for these songs. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:24, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Morozov family (merchants)

Propose renaming Category:Morozov family (merchants) to Category:Morozov family

Nominator's rationale: Everybody with the last name Morozov on Wikipedia is in this category and listed on Morozovs. There are apparently more on the Russian Wikipedia, but that shouldn't guide us here. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:27, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are two different and unrelated Morozov families. One is a boyar family, the other is a merchant family. They should not be merged into one. Otherwise, it may cause unnecessary confusion. Aronlee90 (talk) 05:33, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, Feodosia Morozova does not belong to this family. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:27, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Orthwein business family

Propose renaming Category:Orthwein business family to Category:Orthwein family

Nominator's rationale: Everybody with the name Orthwein on Wikipedia is in this category and listed on Orthwein, so a disambiguator seems unneeded. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:25, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Sausmarez family (Guernsey)

Propose renaming Category:Sausmarez family (Guernsey) to Category:Saumarez family

Nominator's rationale: Everybody named Sausmarez or Saumarez with a Wikipedia article is in this category (and in Saumarez), so I don't think we need a disambiguator. I think we should look to Saumarez and make this match the article title, even though there are two ways to spell the name. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:21, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Dimitry Family (Creoles)

Propose renaming Category:Dimitry Family (Creoles) to Category:Dimitry family

Nominator's rationale: I don't see any other articles on people with the last name Dimitry (with a y) that aren't in this category, so I don't think the disambiguator is needed. Regardless of that, "family" should be decapitalized. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:18, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Chavasse family (United Kingdom)

Propose renaming Category:Chavasse family (United Kingdom) to Category:Chavasse family

Nominator's rationale: Everybody with the surname Chavasse on Wikipedia is in this category and listed on Chavasse family. No need for a disambiguator. Mike Selinker (talk) 02:14, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
