Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ethnic Jews

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ethnic Jews (mistakenly) was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was invalid due to mistaken listing

Not so much interested in deletion necessarily as clarification. Does Wikipedia need Category pages for individual Ethnicities? Wouldn't this info be better listed under, say, Judaism or Jew?

  • Comment: above nomination was made by User:Shturmovik. -- Graham ☺ | Talk 11:45, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Move to a section of Jew, I'd say, because it's not really an entry on Jewish ethnicity (which is a controversial subject), but, instead, about non-religious Jews who identify culturally. The article doesn't seem controversial or objectionable itself, but its position may be. Geogre 13:48, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • Because the material is already in Jew, delete as redundant and insufficient on its own and article title.
  • Aren't ethnic Jews Hebrews? — Chameleon My page/My talk 15:55, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge with Jew and redirect. -Sean Curtin 20:43, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect. Note 1. there is no VFD note in the article. Is the vote still on? Note 2: This material is already covered in article Jew. Note 3. It violates WP naming policy (singular vs. plural). ←Humus sapiens←Talk 21:49, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Question for the User:Shturmovik: Did you intend to VFD the article Ethnic Jews or the Category:Ethnic Jews? I noticed you nominated the article but placed the VFD tag on the Category, which IZAK already deleted. In any case, I don't support merging Ethnic Jews into Jew, because the article Jew is way too long already. Ghe 05:11, 17 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • Yes, I meant the category, not the article. Sorry, I'm still getting the hang of all this! :-) Shturmovik 07:01, 17 Jul 2004 (UTC)
