 * Propose merging Category:Wineries of the Middle East to Category:Wineries by country
 * I note that of the five entries only two of them are countries. Thus I see no good reason to merge. * Pppery * <sub style="color:#800000">it has begun... 03:39, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was: Rename and move Classical mystics up into parent. – Fayenatic  L ondon 22:29, 2 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Support -- better reflects actual content. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:57, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Support - subcat of Category:People by religion. Also there is Category:Categories by religion but not Category:Categories by tradition. Oculi (talk) 18:59, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Strongly oppose/ Keep' The existing category is broader than 'by religion'. It contains even now 2-3 entries that are not clearly religions: Classical mystics (=philosophers), new religions/sects (collection of small religions) and Kabbbalists (a very special side branch of Jewish tradition, more a philosophy than a religious rite). --Just N. (talk) 20:49, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Support per nom and per Oculi, and purge classical mystics which obviously do not belong in a religious category. Perhaps the classical mystics category should be nominated for renaming or deletion, the word "mystic" is normally reserved for religious people. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:26, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
