- The result of the discussion was: delete; upmerge contents as proposed. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:05, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Delete. Category with a single entry (hence a WP:SMALLCAT violation), which exists as the only quadrant-specific subcategory of Category:LGBT comedians. We don't have separate subcategories for gay male, lesbian, bisexual or transgender male comedians, and the standard consensus as established by many past AFDs is that an "LGBT" category should only be quadrantized when the parent category is large enough to warrant that on size grounds — but with only 163 entries, this one doesn't pass that test. Bethany Black, the category's sole entry, should be upmerged back to Category:Transgender and transsexual women and Category:Transgender and transsexual entertainers — she doesn't need to be upmerged into Category:LGBT comedians, as she was already left double-catted in that category alongside this one anyway — but this category should not exist until Category:LGBT comedians has a lot more articles in it than it does.

- Upmerge The current category is quite specific and easily navigable. I agree that it does not warrant further subdivision at this time. SFB 23:14, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: convert to list. Good Ol’factory (talk) 00:07, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
- Convert Category:Video games of the Museum of Modern Art to article List of video games in the Museum of Modern Art
- Nominator's rationale: Listify. This is a subcategory of Category:Collection of the Museum of Modern_Art. The other two subcategories, Category:Paintings of the Museum of Modern Art and Category:Sculptures of the Museum of Modern Art, are about artworks and objects physically owned by MoMA, so their categorization seems acceptable as a defining characteristic. Their collection of video games, though, seems more like their collection of films, where they own a copy of something that there may be many copies of. That they are in MoMA is interesting, but I don't think it rises to a defining characteristic for them. Trivialist (talk) 19:14, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
- Support The video cames being in MoMA is not a defining Characteristic.Naraht (talk) 17:56, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
- Support listify as video games are not materially owned. Still, this is useful information that should be retained in the much more suitable list format. SFB 23:15, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
