Hi,
Please could you let me know the most usual meaning of فصلبندي كردن?
As it's for a dictionary entry I can't really give any context.

Classification
Of course, Reza Ebrahimi's rendering can also be a correct answer depending on the text-type. Classification can also mean طبقه بندی

Faramarz Hamidi

to partition
Since you don't have any context, this is difficult. If you look up "fasl" in the dictionary, you will see there are a lot of different meanings.
"partitioning" covers quite a few of the basic concepts

Divide into chapters
Whether you say divide, cut, or partition, you must end the sentence with the word chapters because the keyword here is فصل without which the sentence will not mean what is in source term.
Such as the case with classification, which by itself will not translate the source term.
