December 11

NEW NOMINATIONS

Category:Euro XIII

Nominator’s rationale: Mopping up redundant category following the AFD that deleted the parent article. The C of E God Save the King! (talk) 17:57, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Mothra (film) characters

Nominator’s rationale: This was only just renamed per Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2025_November_29#Category:Mothra_characters, but not all these characters were in Mothra (film); some redirect to other films within Category:Mothra films. I initially wrote this as a rename to Category:Mothra (film franchise) characters, but if there is no Mothra franchise but only a subset of the Godzilla franchise, then I suggest just “Mothra film characters”, or merging to Category:Godzilla (franchise) characters. – Fayenatic London 17:08, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Single article Roman Catholic churches categories

Nominator’s rationale: Upmerge single-article categories. Not helpful for navigation. Mclay1 (talk) 14:29, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Augusto Bracet

Nominator’s rationale: This category only has the artist and one of their painters. These pages are already interlinked. Delete for now. ^SMason_Garrison 13:31, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Swedish musicians by ethnicity

Nominator’s rationale: Trivial intersections of occupation and ancestry. It is not because you have Greek ancestors (when there are even sources for that) that there is a defining connection between your ancestry and being a musician, e.g. nothing in the articles about Alex P or Kim Cesarion suggest that there is anything Greek in their music. It may be useful to diffuse Swedish musicians by genre, but not by ancestry. See WP:OCEGRS. Place Clichy (talk) 13:03, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Swedish musicians of Armenian descent

Nominator’s rationale: Underpopulated category. upmerge for now ^SMason_Garrison 03:39, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Rust (programming language) software

Nominator’s rationale: There is no “Rust software” or any other “Rust ([blank]) software” categories that this disambiguation would help with. The Rust (programming language) article has it because rust is a thing that exists. I think this category should be moved to a non-disambiguated name but then that would make the names inconsistent with each other. This rename would also concern

Other categories of software don’t have disambiguating names since their articles didn’t need disambiguation. Betseg (talk) 01:51, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose articles thst use disambiguation we use it in every category that references them. There are times when categories need disambiguation thst articles do not have bur we should always disambiguation at least as much as articles do.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:18, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Schools named after British royalty

Nominator’s rationale: WP:SHAREDNAME. Place Clichy (talk) 01:07, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
