The result of the discussion was: rename all to use "in <city>" (non-admin closure) DannyS712 (talk) 00:45, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The Category:International sports competitions by city has two naming types "hosted by x" and "in x". I suggest these all be changed to "in x" for reasons of simplicity and also semantic reasons as large sports events are typically hosted through a combination of resources (city, national, regional, international, commercial, etc.) so the "hosted by" naming suggests a highly specific scenario which may not apply to the current contents in many cases.

Nominator's rationale: Category is populated by all redirects, excluding one page to which all the redirects lead. The one article already exists in the parent category. The redirects are all minor characters whose inclusion in a category is not necessary for useful navigation. TTN (talk) 12:48, 12 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: do not merge. MER-C 08:57, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Clothing companies design, manufacture, sub-contract manufacture, distribute and sell their clothing in different combinations which vary over time (though its often hard to tell from the articles where the clothes actually come from). There is a separate Category:Clothing retailers for those which dont actually produce any. This category is superfluous. Category:Clothing companies is subcategorised both by country and by different sorts of clothing. Rathfelder (talk) 12:26, 12 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT for a single photograph, eponymous on the name of a person who isn't even the image's principal subject of interest. Chasten isn't independently notable in his own right, but is known only as the spouse of a presidential candidate, and accordingly just has a redirect to his husband's BLP rather than his own standalone article. And furthermore, this image is eponymously categorized solely for Chasten, and not at all for Pete even though he's in it too — which is obviously not to say that it should be categorized on Pete either, because that would still be overcategorization. As always, we do not obsessively file photographs into a comprehensive scheme of eponymous categories for every individual person who happens to be in the image — most people don't warrant their own eponymous categories at all, and the not independently notable spouse of a presidential candidate is firmly in that bucket.
