Category talk:Bahá'ís by nationality

should we have groupings of men and women Baha'is?
Might make it easier to find lists when someone wants to find the women or men Baha'is..... Smkolins (talk) 15:48, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't think such a division has ever been made in categories for any other religion. Typically we categorize by gender only if gender is relatively significant in the context, e.g., female sportspeople who compete in sport separately from male sportspeople.

 * Has there ever been a discussion about the idea? In any case I was asked by a friend of mine about such a list and I thought, why not? Smkolins (talk) 02:51, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * See the guideline on categorizing by gender here. Gendered categories can be implemented where gender is quite relevant in the topic. You need to ask if division by gender in the topic has been the subject of scholarly study or comment or if gender somehow it inherently relevant to the topic. This can at times be hard to determine. For instance, there has been consensus to divide singers into male and female, but there has also been consensus to not divide actors into male and female. I can't think of a good reason to divide any of the religion categories by gender, and I don't think the division would withstand a WP:CFD review. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:58, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
