Support, but I'd like to keep the child category disambiguated Barbary pirates (people)‎ to reduce potential confusion. Mason (talk) 22:59, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose, as Barbary pirates is the main article and the only natural name. This proposal feels unnecessary to me; there are other categories where categories have subcats using "(people)" or other qualifiers; we do not disambiguate the head category in all such cases, and they just need occasional maintenance to diffuse the contents. But if this is carried, then leave a disambiguation category at the old page name. – Fayenatic London 06:56, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge all to Category:Fictional characters who use magic. The consensus is rough, but a "no consensus, keep the status quo" outcome would please no one. (non-admin closure) —Compassionate727 (T·C) 18:42, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:XY redirect which should be deleted. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 14:15, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Category:Fictional witches and wizards, and instead Merge Category:Fictional witches and Category:Fictional wizards into Category:Fictional witches and wizards. The distinction isn't always clear, not even by gender, as the term "witch" has been applied to males, and "wizard" to females. AHI-3000 (talk) 19:34, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 17:53, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: rename, as far as I know "Arabian" is used in conjunction with Arabian Peninsula and Arabian language, but in most other cases it is Arab. It should actually be slaves of Arabs rather than Arab slaves (e.g. a number of articles in subCategory:Moroccan slaves are about Europeans) but that is a problem that probably applies to all Category:Slaves by nationality subcategories too.
