: Anyway, still brewing on an alternative dab term, but I did spot another motivating factor for renaming [[God (mythology)]] in particular: in contexts where the word "mythology" is used, the word is usually spelled lowercase-g god, which instead we cover at [[God]]. I'd suggest we switch the titles if it wouldn't be such a pain for linking. – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 21:16, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

:: That would be ''wholly'' improper. The class of being should certainly be the primary topic, not the one entity belonging to it who is referred solely by that class.
