Category:Lawyers in British India to Category:Lawyers from British India – C2C: grandparent is People from British India Mason (talk) 12:39, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's going to be a somewhat different topic. Many judges in British India were civil servants who weren't "from" India and left when they retired. Jahaza (talk) 18:44, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
True, but the category is supposed to be that different topic (as this entire chain is in nationality) Mason (talk) 18:48, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If the scope is different then some items need to be removed, and possibly the category has to be split. It is better done in a full discussion. Ymblanter (talk) 08:23, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
