message: ... but it seems that this term has not worked its way into pop-culture generally as much as the corresponding shiksa. Ellsworth 22:41, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Halló! de:Schickse and ru:Шикса are already used at Shiksa. This might block bots. Best regards

message: Does the Talmud say anything about this ? I have heard of offensive words in the Talmud, but I am not sure about the term Shegetz. ADM (talk) 21:13, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Talmud

message: Shegetz and Shiksa are masculine and feminine forms of the same word. Why do we need two short articles, instead of one more comprehensive one? Peter Chastain [habla, por favor] 05:28, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The article is not about a word (i.e., it is not a dicdef), but about a concept. As concepts, shegetz and shiksa are quite different. Staszek Lem (talk) 06:01, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: How are those two concepts so different that they should not be discussed together? They are both derogatory, IMO, and they have the same origins. The fact that shiksa is more derogatory than shegetz, and is less frequently used to describe (insufficiently observant) Jews, is a function of a double standard which is better discussed in one article than two.

replies: text: They don't need to be so different to be different topics. We have plenty of small articles. wikipedia is not paper. And onle again, your similarity is only in the level of dictionary definitions.  The terms evolved differently and now they are different.  Staszek Lem (talk) 02:19, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge with [[Shiksa]]? 

message: The word is not pronounced with a segol under the shin, it should be titled as it is spelled and pronounced, as in Sheigetz, or shaygetz. Sir Joseph (talk) 15:07, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Move to Sheigetz?? 

message: It is barely used outside of actual Yiddish speakers, and even then it is not common. It should at the least be merged with the shiksa page, but really should be in a bigger page about Yiddish and/or Jewish & non-Jewish relations.
This is a encyclopedia, not a dictionary.

thread_title:  This Word Doesn't Need Its Own Page 

message: the only example provided is: ashkenazis using the word defensively against people trying to harass or even stone them. why no mention that the psychological origins are talmudic? it's preferable to have an honest discussion of highly nuanced, highly charged racist words. the article on ni****, for example, a similarly loathesome word, is enormously long. or should this article be merged with the ni**** article?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:2000:12C1:6128:0:41BA:CF5A:E54F (talk) 13:06, 23 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: We merge articles only when they cover the same subject. Nigger and shegetz refer to different categories people. As for honest discussion, you are very welcome to expand the article citing relable published sources, for verifiablity of the added information, as our policies require.

thread_title:  merge this article with that of another loathesome racial epithet?
