Why is this category contested and not its eqvivalents?
You can not erase the "Category:Islam and slavery" without erazing the eqvivalent: "Category:Christianity and slavery" and "Category:Judaism and slavery". Wikipedia must be consistent: erase all of these categories, or none of them.
These categories are useful for articles about the religion's rules and attituedes toward the institution of slavery. For example, the article Concubinage in Islam is suitable to have in the category "Category:Islam and slavery".
I do not object creating a sub categories such as for example "Category:History of slavery in the Muslim world", but the "Category:Islam and slavery" have a separate purpose.
In short: If you erase "Category:Islam and slavery" and "Category:Islam and slavery" and "Category:Judaism and slavery" as well. They all have - or should have - the same use. They are all sub categories of the same mother category. You can not rename/delete one without the others.--Aciram (talk) 16:20, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
