Additional precise sub-categries for growing number of Orthodox rabbis

edit
All discussion about the following is at: Category talk:Orthodox rabbis#More precise system based on recognized names.

There are now more precise categories.

Thus under Category:Orthodox rabbis there is now some new sub-categories using KNOWN and accepted non-controversial academic and ecyclopedic nomenclature. (If anyone would like to indicate that a rabbi is presently ALIVE then just put in the Category:Living people and automatically the reader knows that the rabbi is with us!):

  • If there is any doubt, or if a rabbi cannot be clearly placed into one of the above, he should remain in Category:Orthodox rabbis.

The above should go a long way towards sorting out the ever-growing list of Orthodox rabbis of all shades and parties etc. IZAK 09:28, 5 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • I disagree with this form categorisation, (Hasidic being a sub-cat of Haredi) as Haredi and Hasidic are both part of Orthodox Judaism, although Hasidim do call themselves Haredi. (Hasidism is not an offshoot of Haredi Judaism). Chesdovi (talk) 13:43, 28 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
