*'''Keep''' This is a significant topic of academic study and for many ('''no, not all''') entries, it is well supportable by sources. As with any category, people and especially BLPs should be handled with caution, but that's not a justification for deletion.

*'''Keep''' Proponents of pseudosciences want to whitewash the articles about their ideas all the time. We don't do that. See [[WP:LUNATICS]]. --[[User:Hob Gadling|Hob Gadling]] ([[User talk:Hob Gadling|talk]]) 08:34, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' - we don't delete categories because we don't like them for political reasons or because they imply bad things, it's a legitimate category for an encyclopedia and apparently misunderstood by some editors. Hop Gadling also has it right. I see that at least one editor, John Pack Lambert, is now busy removing it (and [[:Category:White supremacy]] from [[White Gods]] despite it being in the lead) from articles, eg from [[Richard Lynn]] despite the fact that the article discusses scientific racism.
