Category:Twelvers to Category:Twelver Shi'ism – C2D: main article is Twelver Shi'ism. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 11:38, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative: create Category:Twelver Shi'ism as a parent category while keeping Category:Twelvers for biographies only. That can be done without nomination on this platform. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:47, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support alternative: @Marcocapelle's suggestion makes a lot of sense to me. It logically fits that 'Twelver Shi'ism' categorizes concepts, while 'Twelvers' categorizes people. Though, following consistent logic, it shouldn't stop there. There is also 'Sevener', which should become 'Sevener Shi'ism' and 'Seveners', and 'Fiver (sect)', which should become 'Fiver Shi'ism' and 'Fivers'.
