Category talk:Inhabitants by timeframe

Does anyone see a use for these inhabitants by era/century categories? They are barely used, and "Era of Upheaval" doesn't even cover the 14th century, yet it includes 10th and so on. I can maybe see a need to know who was around when, but it's pretty minor and rare, and difficult to fully implement. Long-lived characters will exist in multiple eras and centuries; imagine Larloch with dozens of century categories. Some historical characters don't have a known birth, death, or age, further muddled by age-slowing magic or immortality, so giving them categories like this is guesswork.

I propose deletion for the whole category tree. I can have my bot remove the categories from the articles. — BadCatMan (talk) 02:02, November 9, 2014 (UTC)
