The result of the debate was  

delete. Wizardman 20:01, 30 November 2009 (UTC) An intersection of and. This intersection appears to only contain 4 articles. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 08:45, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - and delete the template as well. Not only is it poorly named, but it is highly misleading if it is intended to be an intersection of Judaism stubs and theologian stubs - the template states that it is for Jewish theologians - i.e., for theologians whose religious persuasion is Jewish, irrespective of whether their specialist area of research is Judaism or not. The category states that it is for articles related to jewish theology (a redirect to Jewish philosophy). Given that it is more than likely that some Jewish theologians - template definition - are concerned with other religious studies rather than Jewish theology - category definition - in the same way, for example, as there are Christians who are experts on Buddhism, the whole nature of the purpose for this stub type is pretty unclear. In any case, the topic is pretty thoroughly covered by Judaism-bio-stub - a stub type which seems, BTW, to be being fairly thoroughly misused to apply to any Jewish biography, whether the person whose article is marked with this template is notable for their religious work or not (why, for instance, are Sigmund Livingston, Henri Bernstein, Wilhelm Salomon Freund, and Jeff Ballabon marked with that stub? The various reli-bio-stub types - including this one -are for people whose main claim to fame is their religious work, not for people who simply happen to be of one particular faith) Grutness...wha?  11:11, 22 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete A category of stubs about theologians specializing in Judaism is one thing. But theologians who just so happen to be Jewish is another entirely. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 03:12, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

The result of the debate was  

double upmerge. Wizardman 20:05, 30 November 2009 (UTC) An intersection of and, which doesn't seem to have that many stubs. Double upmerge. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 08:36, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Double upmerge per nom unless this can be brought up to 60 stubs. Cat Scan suggests that there are only eight likely candidates at the moment. Grutness...wha?  11:17, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
