Handling gelding
Ulfarr:
My bad, I didn't know it wasn't listed.

Or particular skill-ranges of dwarf, more generally, if you have, say, tending-towards-unskilled gelders (ouch! Even more than the original ouch!) while your plant processors are expert+, maybe.
Then there's linked-stockpile-dependence (not sure that affects gelding, but might be useful for other differentiations in other industries) and burrow-restrictions and other tips like that which can help define limited targetting of gelding jobs (also butchery, if you intend to have specialist Extract or Capture butcheries).
I'm also not sure without testing, but it's possible that with the new Work Manager expansion you can use the setting that doesn't allow generic Work Managed jobs to spawn there (only servicing locally created ones) as a similar block against tbis out-of-workshop creation of a job. But not sure how that would interact with how you otherwise use the establishment concerned.

None of the things you suggested work.

Gelding isn't in the list, though.

Based on what I've tried, this is the case, but that's also why I asked.

Set up a workshop just for gelding. Only allow your gelder to use that workshop. In every other farm workshop, don't allow your gelder to use it. I would be *very* surprised if that doesn't work. If it doesn't please report back because I'd be interested to know why it doesn't work.

Nope, doesn't work. I'd have a simple save file for testing but the forum doesn't allow attachments? Oh well, a testing scenario doesn't take that long to set up anyway.
