Why does this category exist?

It's well established that women scientists tend to have shorter articles than men with similar achievements, yet I can't find a "low-importance Male scientists" lists. Why would this even be a category? Are any scientists low importance? Why would we split men from women? 79.225.186.133 (talk) 20:32, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Very good question, I asked myself that. Really just another example of a sexist Wikipedia. Suspekt (talk) 11:14, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Case in point: Katalin Karikó just received the Nobel Prize. Here she is still categorized as low importance. Simply ridiculous. Suspekt (talk) 11:16, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
