Nominator's rationale:Delete. This category has no members and two subcategories, each of which has only one entry, and each entry is identical (
Nnedi Okorafor). The "Category:Igbo fiction writers" is exactly the same as this (no entries, two subcategories each with this identical entry). This is kind of weird.

Delete per nom. It looks like the categories' creator (all one editor) got a little carried away with things. This one certainly is not needed -- it just impedes navigation.

Nominator's rationale:Delete. The category is a
neologism based on
original theories and conclusions and the article it was based on (
Jihad Satire) was deleted for the same reasons. I propose that the accompanying category be also deleted.

Delete - original research and probably unverifiable. Most of these articles are already in categories such as
Category:Satirical films anyway.

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

Nominator's rationale:Merge. Duplication. Although national agencies and governmental agencies are not synonyms, the guidelines of the nominated category says "Indian government agencies". If kept, all Indian agencies categories should be reorganized, e.g.
category:Government agencies of India should be a subcategory of
category:Indian national agencies.

Nominator's rationale:Delete. Awkwardly named and defined category. Uncertain that it is a defining characteristic of the actors listed. I would have expected to see
Charlie Chaplin and
Andy Kaufman (and many other actors with a biopic) as actors portrayed posthumously by other actors. What about actors whose clips were used in Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid?

Delete Non-defining. Lugnuts (

Keep, but rename to something more defining. The current name is a little vague, which is likely to lead to confusion over who should be included and who not.

Delete. Biopics often portray dead people. I don't think this is a defining characteristic for anyone, actors or otherwise.
Good Ol’factory(talk) 21:54, 1 September 2010 (UTC)reply
Delete - certainly worthy of mention in a "legacy" or similar section within the subjects' article but non-defining of the actors who would be included.
Are You The Cow Of Pain? (
talk) 22:56, 2 September 2010 (UTC)reply
Delete. Being a biopic is certainly a defining characteristic of the film; having had a biopic made of their lives is not, in and of itself, a defining characteristic of the film's subject.

Nominator's rationale:Rename. Propose expanding abbreviation to match article
Metropolitan Manila Development Authority. The definition of the word "chairmen" is sufficiently encompassing to also include females, and as far as I can discover this particular organisation's head is usually referred to as a "chairman", not a "chairperson".

Nominator's rationale:Rename. I think "Hebrew Bible giants" is what was intended. The giants included in the category are mentioned in the Hebrew Bible but not all of them are Hebrew people.
Good Ol’factory(talk) 01:06, 30 August 2010 (UTC)reply
<reset>Okay, I think I wasn't clear enough. Add
Category:Giants to the articles alone (Goliath can be categorized with both cat:giants and cat:Hebrew Bible people) but not as a parent for
Category:Hebrew Bible people. I'm oppose to a rename and prefer to merge Biblical giants to cat:Hebrew Bible people.--
