List of utilitarians
NN, D. ComCat 04:58, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, utilitarianism is an influential and historic philosophical system, as the article shows. DDerby (talk) 05:34, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and move to List of utilitarian philosophers or List of utilitarian writers (or something like that, I haven't thought of the perfect one).  I think a list of people who wrote on it, advanced it, defined it, etc... would be legit.  A description in the cat isn't sufficient to discourage every celeb who happened to say "I'm a utilitarian" to get added; which would make the list not worth keeping.  --rob 11:20, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep maybe move if somewhere better can be found. Dlyons493 12:29, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Categorify. This is what categories are for. 195.92.168.174 20:34, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with utilitarianism and correct the errors; who would classify Epicurus as a utilitarian? Dottore So 21:14, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and turn into category. Do not merge. Owen&times; &#9742;  00:01, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and correct errors. Penelope D 01:00, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep for reasons above. --MacRusgail 18:17, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as per reasons listed. Shauri
 * Keep and change to category as per Owen&times; ··gracefool |&#9786; 22:15, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
