Nominator's rationale: Not a good idea to categorise activists, not by issue but by century. Different sorts of activists dont have much in common. May even be opposed to each other. And the term activist is modern. Very few people are described as activists before the twentieth century.

Support activitist are categorized by what they support, and so mass categories that ignore that are not a good idea. Many are parts of movements with specfic time frames as well, so by century categories are not needed. Also, if we view sufragists as activists, and start categorizing 19th and 20th century sufragists by such, we are going to artifically split a category for no good reason at least in the American context.

Nominator's rationale:delete, drum corps is not a defining characteristic of these venues. These are football and multi-purpose stadiums.

Delete per nom. This sort of information might be appropriate in a list or in an article about the championship, but I agree that it is not defining for the various stadiums.

Nominator's rationale: This category was first decided upon to be renamed per decision at
Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2016_March_28#Category:Educationist. However, later a user recreated this category and used it on 45 articles which had clearer classifications available. There are plenty of other categories available that are more specific and hierarchically structured/linked. I suggest this category to be deleted now as it is empty, superfluous, and in my opinion introduces unusual English terms (educationalist and educationist).

Reply: No.
Category:Educational theorists seems to have been intended for those working on the theory/research/writing/thinking side of education (in contrast to
Category:Educators which is more on the teaching/practical aspects of education). These two categories have existed for some time.
Category:Educationalists was a rather unclear category, that judged from the articles it was applied to, seems to cover everyone being involved in education. Hence, it seems to have been a catch-all category. In other words, Educationalists can be broken down into two-three more specific categories.

Comment This category has been emptied by
Sda030 prior to this CFD discussion being closed which defeats the purpose of having a discussion about this category. LizRead!Talk!05:07, 14 March 2022 (UTC)reply
Ah, yes, I apologize for that, learned about the procedure after the action was done. I promise I will revert my changes if the consensus lands on oppose.

Comment -- I have always wondered what the difference was between an educationalist and a teacher. One sounds grander, but I suspect it is not. Education lecturers, i.e. those who train the teachers would certainly need to be a separate category.
