Category talk:Priests by deity

Priest vs. cleric
At the moment we have Category:Priests by deity and Category:Clerics by deity. As far as I can see they exist because the function of the former is about categorizing by occupation, the other about categorizing by class. Still, the vast majority (with an exception being druids?) of characters would be simultaneously in both (which is rarely applied). Do we really need/want that? As long as I do not hear more arguments for this separation I would rather see both merged into Category:Priests by deity, as the affiliation seems to me more about fluff than about the crunchy distinction by class.

 * Daran, technically I use priest for novel or video game characters and cleric is for actual source material characters... I agree, it does become a mess... personally, we need better rules on categorizing stat characters from novel/game ones... such as all clerics and druids fall under the priest (also novel/game ones) category... all warriors (for novel/game ones) are fighters, rangers, barbarian, warriors (3e), etc. Mages (Used for novel/game characters) are magic-users, wizards, sorcerers might ...though this leads to headaches, such as thieves vs. rogues... - Darkwynters (talk) 15:15, June 29, 2015 (UTC)
