Too Broad?

I've raised this concern with other lists. This list is way to broad, it mixes novelists, scholars, and monastic authors, all of whom are writing for very different purposes. A list of, say, Buddhist novelists or Academics in Buddhist Studies would be of much greater use.Lotus 05:06, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User Yworo's deletion

I have reverted the unexplained deletion of the Dharmic writers category by Yworo (talk · contribs). --Trphierth (talk) 04:33, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It was an empty intermediate category, unnecessary according to WP:CAT. I stated that on the edit summary, so it was not "unexplained" as you falsely claim. It also duplicates Category:Indian religious writers which is a synonym according to the article Indian religion. That is, it is a POV category fork which duplicates an existing category.
