Oppose -- A better solution will be to move those things that are actually texts out of the target and into the subject. This is unfortunately an ill-defined tree, which may be combining hieroglyphic texts and Hellenistic (or later) Greek texts. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:54, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I think various stelae or papyri (which for whatever reason were excluded, now included) may not rise to literature (any more than a stop sign, one's grocery list, or the law codes would). Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:12, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: False Category. None of the shows listed are original programs by TV Asia. All of them are imports from India that have been syndicated in the US on said network. Acquired programming does not warrant a separate category. TheRedDomitor (talk) 14:58, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. To be fair, the rule once was that television series could be categorized for any television network that had carried them, regardless of whether it was as original or acquired programming — but we smartly tightened that up many years ago due to the category bloat, and this clearly fell through the cracks.

SUPPORT renaming, per rationale of nom. (and I was apparently the creator of that subcat).
FWIW, the entire categorization schema of Category:Spaceflight is a large mess. It needs a lot of work to rationalize it all, and I have no idea how to get a group of interested editors to tackle such a large mess. N2e (talk) 15:30, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Found this via User:SDZeroBot/Category_cycles/1; as it stood the two categories were contained within each other. I broke the cycle as "art galleries" clearly form a subset of "art museums and galleries".
I believe the distinction being made here (at least in terms of how these categories are used) is that an art gallery is a private institution that sells art as well as displaying it, whereas an art museum is a usually public institution that primary displays works, and doesn't sell them. The problem is that that doesn't match with usual British English usage, in which "art museum" is rare and most organisations of the latter type are also called "art galleries" or simply "galleries". For instance, the Guildhall Art Gallery, the Dulwich Picture Gallery and indeed the National Gallery are all in the parent, so are presumably being taken not to be "art galleries" in the sense intended for this category.
I don't think my suggested title is great (many of what might be called "art museums" are private institutions) but I can't think of a better way to express the distinction. Nevertheless, "art museum" vs. "art gallery" isn't it, certainly in British English, which per MOS:ENGVAR we should probably be going with here.

Comment - New Zealand, where I live (and work in the arts) tends to use the term "dealer gallery" for galleries where art can be purchased. I'm pretty sure other countries use similar terminology. Would this be a sensible/useful way of splitting out (as subcats?) such galleries from institutions which display art to the public? Grutness...wha?15:05, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Bankside Gallery is not publicly owned in the usual sense - it's owned by a charity. Most of the time it exhibits works (usually by the members of the societies) for sale. I don't think there is a permanent collection (the societies may have stuff, but they aren't the same. Johnbod (talk) 03:38, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Since that would simply be another WP:CfD discussion, it seems like unnecesary bureaucracy to create another discussion for that. I'll clarify here that my argument is that:
having these two as separate categories with their current names creates avoidable confusion, and I believe something should be done to change this; and
I'm ambivalent as to whether the solution involves renaming this subcategory to better clarify its scope, or merging it with the parent on the basis that the distinction is unnecessary.
If I had started a new discussion someone would have criticised me per WP:TALKFORK. If I'd waited until this one was closed and restarted it someone would have criticised me for not respecting consensus. Sometimes you can't win. YorkshireLad ✿ (talk)08:55, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale:WP:SMALLCAT for mayors of a city not large enough to guarantee the "inherent" notability of all of its mayors; even the one mayor who actually has an article to file here at all has it because he went on to serve in the provincial legislature, rather than for having been mayor per se, and the only other article here is a list. Full disclosure, I'm actually the original creator of this, a decade ago when our notability standard for mayors was an automatic inclusion freebie for all mayors of any city that happened to pass an arbitrary population cutoff -- but consensus has deprecated that, so there's no longer any guarantee that this category can ever actually be expanded at all. Bearcat (talk) 02:57, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge, these are very small cats and there is no reason to call out particular local gvmt officials in the office of "mayor" from any of many other gvmt or civic roles to have its own category. N2e (talk) 15:27, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nuclear power is a sub-set of nuclear energy. Nuclear energy includes power (electric) and non-power (non-electric) applications such as district heating etc.. Ideally nuclear power should be merged into nuclear energy. TharikRish20:43, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Tharikrish, it's true that "power" in this case is a sub-set of "energy". However, there is no nuclear energy-related templates, which aren't about nuclear power. All templates in these two categories about nuclear power. Side note: nuclear power is the first item on the disambiguation page Nuclear energy. —andrybak (talk) 17:06, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, leaning towards a Keep: As I see it, this rests on two things – (1) consistency with the article title "The arts" and (2) consistency with the earlier discussion.
"The arts" might have been a stable article title for some time, but there doesn't seem ever to have been any discussion of whether it meets WP:THE. That page lists two conditions which usually have to be met for an article title to begin with "The", and "The arts" arguably doesn't meet either. The unstated rationale for using "The arts" seems to be to ensure that it looked as distinct as possible from "Art".
@Ham II, if it goes to RM now, then this discussion would be effectively on hold pending its outcome. If this discussion closes first, then there is a possibility that this CFD may be need to be re-run after the RM, if the two produce different outcomes. So no neat opion.
Personally, I would oppose the RM, since it would create avoidable ambiguity in a title which is already terse ... and if the RM resulted in a renaming, I would still support having the category at "the Arts", because ambiguity is more problematic with categories. But that is my view, and if you disagree, then you are entitled to open an RM if you want to. --BrownHairedGirl(talk) • (contribs) 12:26, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
