I was trying to find the template to convert monetary amounts from the past to present amounts. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 17:16, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
veneralogists by nationality Co tains a total of 26 articles. No sub-cat has more than 6 articles. I think it all should be upmerged. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 17:30, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Source #2 (Meany) says this place was never built, because it wasn't chosen as county seat. [1]

The only article in this category is on someone who was born in 1850 and died in 1920. So neither country then existed and the move was within a country. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 23:54, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
West Bengal was formed in 1947. There was no such place before that date. No one who died before 1947 was from West Bengal. We have a lot of people in West Bengal categories who died before that date. This is a major problem. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 23:56, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
I have seen way too many articles in Educationsl theorists, educationists and educators Categories. I think no one should be in more than 1 of those 3. It leads to too much Category overlap otherwise. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 01:05, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
We have agreed that burial categories are for cemeteries and other very specific places. For navigation we group these by country, state, city etc., but only the most local unit is defining, and only if being buried at the cemetery, etc. is defining. Lots and lots of people are over categorized by the country they were buried in. I have removed a few of these, but there is a huge amount of work yet to do. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 21:00, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Right now we have Burials in Dover, Delaware, burials in Sussex County, Delaware and burials in Kent County, Delaware that only contain biographical articles. Burials in New Castle County Delaware has some cemetery or other specific location of burial categories as well. Most of the time we do not subdivide cemeteries by county, I see no reason to subdivide by county in a state with 3 counties. This whole burials tree is a total mess. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 12:27, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Category:Burials in Angola, has no direct articles, just a sub-category, with just 1 more sub-category. The only article in that subcategory, cemeteries in Angola, is Alto das Cruzes cemetery . So the whole tree of 3 categories exists to support just the article on the cemetery. I am not sure it even makes sense to have cemetery articles themselves as sub-categories of categories named burials in X, but I do not think it makes sense to have a whole tree for one article. This is also the only article in the category monuments and memorials in Angola. Which places it under the tree of Buildings and structures in Angola. I am wondering if instead of being under Buildings and Structures the article really should be under maybe Society of Angola, or Culture of Angola. Or is "structure" larger enough to include a cemetery, since the grave stones or markers themselves are a sort of structure? There are only 19 by country sub-cats of African cemeteries, there are 54 countries in Africa, so we do not have cemeteries categories for most of them. We have 2 articles on cemeteries directly in Cemeteries in Africa. Of the 20 or so articles directly in cemeteries, only 1 is on a specific cemetery. However then are probably 7 specific cemeteries at the contient level. There are lots of 1 article cemeteries by country categories, or at least a few others. I am less than convinced roganizing cemeteries by continent really makes sense, I think it might make sense to just sub-divide by county and put the rest in a universal category. I think we have more categories in the tree than our current contents justifies. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 15:29, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
The category Burials in Tasmania is all biographical articles. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 15:40, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Burials in Haiti has only as a sub-cat Burials in Port-au-Prince. That category in turn contains only 3 biographical articles. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 15:59, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Burials in Honduras, Guinea, Antigua and Baruda, The Federated States of Micronesia, Iceland, Mozambique, Namibia, Nauru, Sierra Leone and Yemen are all categories with only biogrpahical articles in them. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:02, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
I have been slowly, and I mean slowly, adding people to the Category innkeepers. I believe it now has 28 articles. I am not even sure if it is fully defining for all of those. There are 2 sub-cats, I counted both those in the main category and the sub-cats. I have to admit I am not personally convinced this is distinct enough from hoteliers to justify 2 Category trees. Are innkeepers really different than hoteliers, are is this a case of categorization by unshaved name, that is dplitting a like group because the name used for them changed. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 00:34, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
When you removed Raja Ali Haji [2] from Indonesian categories, you didn't add him to 19th-century poets or male poets. If you believe the nationality category is incorrect, you should sti;; add the page to ALL the other parent categories. Mason ( talk) 23:55, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
I am starting to wonder if there is enough of a regional culture for us to make a Category People from the East Indies, and at least include people from areas in modern Raleast Timor, the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia prior to the areas coming under colonial rule, as applies to a specific area. Possibly excluding those from New Guinea. I am not sure how large such a Category actually could become, and I am not sure any subdivisions by occupation would be doable. It does not make sense to act as if post-colonial states existed in pre-colonial times, so we need to avoid imposing names ahistotlrically. I think we also need to be more willing to let categories by occupation have undifferentiated base contents. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 01:38, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
