- The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 19:33, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Too ambiguous as a base for a category. Anchor article says: "A discovery system may be an artificial intelligence system (in the context of computer science, logic, and mathematics) or a bibliographical search system (in the context of library and information science)." Only 2 articles apart from the eponymous one. Rathfelder ( talk) 20:38, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Support per nom, but add the eponymous article to Category:Library and information science software instead. Marcocapelle ( talk) 19:52, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
- Done. Rathfelder ( talk) 20:49, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

- Propose renaming Category:National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to Category:NAACP
- Nominator's rationale: To match NAACP, most common name, and subcategories (e.g. Category:NAACP Image Awards) TM 14:44, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Speedy rename per WP:C2D. Marcocapelle ( talk) 16:02, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Speedy rename per nom and Marcocapelle. Place Clichy ( talk) 04:28, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose -- The abbreviation will be obvious to many Americans, but not necessarily to the rest of the world (and I as an Englishman would have to think hard to decode it). However I would have no objection to having both, one as a cat-redirect to the other, with NAACP having a headnote with the abbreviation. We normally discourage abbreviations in category names.

- Nominator's rationale: Rename to avoid ambiguity with local government districts and for consistency with List of areas of London and Category:Areas of London. The category currently also contains the London boroughs themselves (such as Category:London Borough of Newham) but boroughs are quite different to the settlements, for example West Ham is a settlement in the London Borough of Newham and combining these 2 substantially different things in 1 category seems inappropriate per WP:NOTDIC. I therefore suggest moving the borough categories back to Category:Wikipedia categories named after districts of England, alternatively a Category:Wikipedia categories named after London boroughs could be created but I don't think we would need it. Note that some London boroughs are named after the settlements and the settlement doesn't have a separate category (such as Category:London Borough of Harrow) but its likely that in time there will be separate categories and unlike Category:Bromsgrove there is no indication of the category being for both anyway in addition to the fact it would need to be at Category:Harrow, London then. I would also support renaming Category:Districts of England to something like Category:Local government districts of England but that's outside of this discussion. Crouch, Swale ( talk) 10:23, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Rename. It looks to me as if splitting to London boroughs would also be useful, as a proper subcat of (local gov) districts. – Fayenatic London 22:06, 30 October 2019 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Literary techniques to Category:Narrative techniques
- Nominator's rationale: Merge Category:Literary techniques into Category:Narrative techniques.
- They are the same thing.
- They have the same parent article, List of narrative techniques.
- The former parent article was moved to the later ( Talk:List of narrative techniques#Requested move 23 May 2015).
- The content of one could equally be the content of the other.
- The categorization of Category:Literary techniques corresponds well-enough to the target. SmokeyJoe ( talk) 01:40, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Support - too much overlap, and a discussion which led to the merger of topic articles is a good indicator. Place Clichy ( talk) 04:28, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
