I'm not sure. Homemaking is a definitely an occupation which is as defining as any other, perhaps more so in many cases since it is a permanent position.

). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: Containerize * Pppery * it has begun... 04:41, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete per
WP:OCEGRS, trivial intersection with gender. There is no need to merge, all articles are also in the Māori tree in some other way. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:27, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply
]
  • Oppose: ethnicity by gender categories are widespread (e.g.
    WP:OCEGRS, which doesn't actually provide a gender example. If the proposer wishes to change / define policy in this area, it would be better to start with a major category that will attract proper discussion, rather than one like this which few will notice). Gender is important in Maori culture and people are regularly noted specifically as being tane Maori or wahine Maori (Maori men or Maori women). The nominator has been preemptively moving men out of this category to Category:Māori tribal leaders, but the latter are sometimes women, so unless this category is deleted, these changes should be reverted. Furius (talk) 06:56, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • Category:African-American men, Category:Native American men, Category:European men are container categories for specifically male occupations, that is very different from this category. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:00, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    This category also has a child occupation category and further occupation categories could be created for most of the other articles in it. Why is that the right approach for native Americans and Europeans, but not for Maori? Furius (talk) 16:27, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • The child category can be kept, it is not part of the nomination. The issue is with all the articles. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:36, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
