[edit] People?

Are the categories by year of birth and death to include only humans or can animals like Buddy Clinton and Dolly the sheep be included as well? Q0 21:14, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

It's meant for people only. -- User:Docu
How about fictional characters, like Bartholomew Bandy? -- Petri Krohn 23:52, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lists of people needing categorization by birth or death

I've compiled three lists of people needing categorization by birth or death (as of mid-March 2008):

Any help gratefully received in adding the appropriate categories to these! Dsp13 (talk) 21:07, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Splitting births by year?

A good number of the XXXX births categories have thousands of members. For example, there are 3,978 pages in Category: 1948 births.

What we could do is split those categories by month, for example:

  • Category:January 1948 births
  • Category:February 1948 births
  • Category:March 1948 births
  • Category:April 1948 births
  • Category:May 1948 births
  • Category:June 1948 births
  • Category:July 1948 births
  • Category:August 1948 births
  • Category:September 1948 births
  • Category:October 1948 births
  • Category:November 1948 births
  • Category:December 1948 births

Same thing would apply to deaths by year. FMAFan1990 (talk) 08:59, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
