This discussion of one or several categories is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive.

There are various different uses of the word, and their own categories; therefore this is not a correct categorization. E4024 (talk) 19:27, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks for your suggestion, but i disgree. Would it be better to rename it as ""Sheikhs (head of religious group) by country". I think the current name is better. I would like to mention that sometimes the "title Sheikh" is used to imply more than one meaning at the same time e.g. Head of the Clan/tribe, head of the professional group, The senior person and other uses ...etc. One person maybe the head of a tribe, the religous leader, and the head of a professional group at the same time. I think it would not be proper to put him in all different categories. I would like to mention that the title of Sheikh is used by other senior non-Muslim religious men in the orient as in Coptic Christians and some Arabic Jewish Rabbis. I think leaving it non-specified would help to reach any "Sheikh" when trying to find him in his country category. Kindly advice.--Ashashyou (talk) 20:52, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Let's hope people with name Sheikh are kept out of this categorization spree. --E4024 (talk) 01:39, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Category:Sheikhs from Egypt is full of people (or tombs in cases) who have no title "sheikh" in their names. I think I will give up trying to look after Egyptian cats here, too much work. --E4024 (talk) 15:19, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
