That's not how we dab pages. And this dab is perfectly accurate. (There was a discussion a bit ago about whether or not (mythology) was the right dab for religious figures, but it didn't have a conclusion. I think everyone technically agreed that the answer was yes, but some people thought it was pejorative.) Najawin 20:25, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
Yeah, over at Talk:God (mythology). We've had the hardest time brainstorming an alternate dab term. If you think of anything, Kevin, please share it there. – n8 () 21:09, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
