Comment -- I think the problem is with the name Royal Prussia, rather than "Polish Prussia". I checked two of the articles: one was about a man who lived in Danzig, which was an Imperial free city; I am not sure that it was part of Polish Prussia (or for that matter Ducal Prussia). I would thus suggest that the category needs to be purged before any merger. However as Polish Prussia was part of the King of Poland's domain, I cannot oppose a merger. If "People from ..." has any articles an appropriate merger should be considered rather than deletion. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:08, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep We categorize people by where they were from, and that means where they were from when they were from there, the Royal Prussia category is large enough to be kept.John Pack Lambert (talk) 08:05, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Misleading category. These are people who simply share the last name Afshar, not people from the same family. clpo13(talk)15:24, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- I am not convinced that this category has any coherence other than that the people share a surname. Possibly listify in Afshar (surname), which is what we have allowed for English surnames. It seems such an article already exists. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:12, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
