Nominator's rationale: Non-defining (e.g. for
West Indian manatee), subjective and just not a good form of categorization (e.g. it's unlikely that a zoo, museum, book etc would categorize lifeforms based on whether or not they are used as an indicator). Also, the NA category appears to indicate that there are 3 definitions. That a species has been used as an indicator is something that (assuming it can be referenced etc) could be mentioned in the article text (and linked to the relevant article), but it doesn't need a category.

Delete -- Indicator species are important for identifying environments under stress, but that does not make them notable as such. It is more about what species the researcher has selected for study. That feels too idiosyncratic for a good category.

Keep. This is the absolute embodiment of part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme given that there are equivalent subcats for all other nationalities that took part in the conflict. As such,
WP:SMALLCAT doesn't apply, and there's no valid reason for deletion. ‑

Oppose. All of the categories have growth potential through the subcategories. Besides I'm planning to create categories for "member" and "election" and primary article for all 47 prefectures.

Nominator's rationale While Asia was a province of Ancient Rome, none of the articles in this category pertains to that province. So none was an Archbishop of Asia, rather they were archbishops in Asia.

Support at least as a temporary solution, per nom. I think we should not need this category at all because all archbishops can be categorized by country, or we would only need it as a container for all Asian countries, but the content of this category looks too messy to achieve either of that easily.

Support They are essentially the same thing. However the Anglican category needs attention - Papua New Guinea is not part of Asia; There is a primate of Southeast Asia and a Primate of Korea. These both need their own subcategories, though at present they will be be over-small.

Nominator's rationale: Too few entries about the character. Most of the films are simply works where the character appears. And even if we would consider them to "Joker films" they're too few to have their own category.

Keep - 6 articles is just above the accepted minimum. There is no obvious boundary (of population) making a city too small to have such a category, so that I think we should draw the boundary on the basis of a number of articles.

Distribute contents then delete -- The normal answer to a category like this would be to upmerge, but two of the artifcles relate to Ancient Greek mythology and the other two to Byzantine/Ottoman period folklore.
