Might we include Shoghi Effendi? He was the first Guardian of the faith for over three decades and a direct relative of the three other central (human) figures.

If we're going to include institutions, I find it odd to include Báb's house but not The Universal House of Justice, which currently governs the faith. Doughbo (talk) 05:28, 8 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

To Baha'is "Central Figure" is a term defined by Shoghi Effendi, referring to only the Bab, Baha'u'llah, and Abdu'l-Baha. Being a Baha'i terminology, it doesn't need to be used as a Wikipedia category, and it could be dispensed with. If it is used, it should just be those three.

I don't find categories all that useful in the first place and I usually don't pay attention to them. Cuñado ☼ - Talk 15:22, 8 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
