 * Redirect to Judaism article, was hoping for an article on the cultural or material history of the religion, seems that we don't have one on wiki. This seems to be all the "stuff" that goes along with the religion if you will. Oaktree b (talk) 20:01, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is an established area of academic discourse, as can be readily seen with Material culture. Any major ethnic or religious group which has been the subject of academic inquiry of this kind would be eligible to have its own page. A Google Scholar search for Jewish material culture yields numerous results which could be used to expand the article.
 * Keep *however* - I would mark this as a stub as it is clearly a mere beginning since it only basically only covers clothing in Uzbekistan. (Alternatively, it could be draftified.) An article that covers all of the material culture of Jews (presumably as a race, a culture, and a religion) will be very large. Searches on "jewish cultural artifacts" and "jewish clothing" yield scholarly articles. Undoubtedly there could be many more topics as hinted at by various articles on culture and in particular archeology. The Material culture article has no hint of links to religion, and that is quite possibly work that needs to be done on that article as well. However, it would need to cover a range of religions. The article on Judaism makes no specific references to material culture, and if this article is greatly enhanced that article could point to this one. Lamona (talk) 00:05, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
