bhikkhunīs and other renunciates

edit

It would be interesting to me to have a category for bhikkhunīs/bhikṣuṇīs (fully ordained nun-priests) distinct from women who belong to the various other renunciate vocations that have been developed in countries where fully ordination is not available to women (maechis, etc). That would involve a significant reorganisation of this category, though, since both bhikkhunīs and other female renunciates can be referred to as Buddhist nuns. – Greg Pandatshang (talk) 18:23, 19 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
