This article has a sidebar saying that it's part of a series on capitalism. Capitalism certainly plays an important, perhaps central, role in Weber's work. However, if capitalism can receive a sidebar treatment here, I wonder why there shouldn't be a sidebar for religion, for sociology, and for Germany. Fellow editors, I am listing several options here for your deliberation:
1. Change the capitalism sidebar to a sociology sidebar, which I personally think is most fitting for this article.
2. Let's not have a sidebar at all. Note that scholars of similar stature, such as Karl Marx and Émile Durkheim, both have no sidebar.
I'd support your first option above, change the sidebar from Capitalism to Sociology. Thank you for reviewing the current status of the article. warshy(¥¥)15:46, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I am between option 1 and option 2, leaning toward 2. I suspect that Marx and Durkheim, like Weber, would be hard to fit into one box without doing injustice to another strong tradition they're a part of. I have no strong objection to any option except 3, which feels like it might be cluttered. Protonk (talk) 20:03, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, after seeing what it looks like, I am now opting for not having a sidebar at all. The Sociology sidebar makes the lead section--which already seems a bit bloated--even more bloated. It spills over into the next section! Also There has been discussions on the sociology sidebar's talk page about whether it really meets the requirements laid out here in Wikipedia:Categories, lists, and navigation templates.
