This category was nominated for deletion on 20 February 2010. The result of the discussion was keep as container category.

if this category is to function only as a "container" category, it requires VASTLY more subcategories to "contain". these categories need to be created prior to attempts to populate with individual names because editors come along, see the "container only" notice and remove any individual names populating category directly.

at least get some "20th-century men by nationality" and 20th-century men by occupation" subcats started. (i'm an IP and cannot create cats...also cannot register so don't even suggest :) .)-- 96.232.126.111 ( talk) 09:56, 4 April 2011 (UTC) reply

So I take it that this being only a "container" category, the various entries in it are added by mistake? -- œ ^™ 04:35, 22 July 2011 (UTC) reply
