:::::What you're saying is correct, but it's the worst kind of technically correct, and it ignores the obvious pejorative connotation of the word. We'd might as well move [[George Washington]] to [[George Washington (mythology)]]. – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 18:02, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

:: I feel strongly against the view that [[God]] should be the page about the monotheistic Abrahamic deity, which strikes me as pretty self-evidently biased. God has got to be dabbed, I'm sorry (though we ''could'' move the current "God" page to [[Deity]] with a redirect, to reduce confusion). As to what the dab term is, I'm not entirely married to "(mythology)"; aside from the possibility of something like "(religion)", perhaps we should give some consideration to [[God (individual)]]? But as to the wider issue, I do think that we should strive, again for reasons of avoiding some weird "Abrahamic religions are ''special''" slant, to use the same dab term for all religious/mythological figures. If we change Mary to "(religion)" or whatever, we must also move e.g. [[Venus (mythology)]].
