== If there's no news of a person's death == |
|
|
|
|
|
If a person in the living people category dies, but this is not reported in news media, they will remain in this category. Over time, there will be people who become very old for whom there is no recent news about. At what age should we move them to the possibly living people category, do you think?--] 14:34, 24 December 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
== Change the rules! == |
|
|
I strongly suggest whoever decides Wikipedian policy ought to change the rules so that this category can be subcategorised in some circumstances. Misplaced Pages does not segregate any category into living and dead, but should do so for living supercentenarians as this shows the extremes of age. At present, there is a CFD on this category. ] 20:50, 9 January 2007 (UTC) |
|
|

|
|
:What is wrong with having living categories that are '''not''' sub-categories of this one? A category for living supercentenarians is inherently notable and if they're all also in this category I don't see what the problem is. ] 01:24, 12 January 2007 (UTC) |

==Bug in navigation bar== |
|
|
|
|
|
Has anybody else noticed the bug in the fairly new two-letter navigation bar? Even if you click on all twenty-six of them starting with one letter, you will not get all the people whose names start with that letter. |
|
|
|
|
|
In fact, if you do that under the O's, there will be '''more than six hundred fifty people''' that are missed. |
|
|
|
|
|
That's because both the space and the apostrophe (and any numbers and several other characters), plus all of the capital letters from A to Z as well, have Unicode numbers lower than the Unicode number of "a". |
|
|
|
|
|
Shouldn't it be fixed so that the single letters are also links? ] 10:14, 11 January 2007 (UTC) |

== Subjective == |

|
==Just plain too long to ever be useful== |
|
|
I'd just like to make a point that's probably been made before, but here goes: every single article on Misplaced Pages is about a living person. Therefore, this category is entirely useless. I challenge you to find one article to prove me wrong. |

==Suppresses link to Page notice== |

--- I agree - I just saw this Category at the bottom of a page - this category is 100% useless to 99.99999% of the people that use the net - a category like "Architects", "Chefs", etc. have some purpose, and I can see the service it provides. I propose a new Category: "Human" -- ] |

Additionally, I think we should keep in mind that the existence of a category implies that there should be a Misplaced Pages article about every single entity in that category, as per ]. Consider ], which currently lists everyone alive who has ever played the game. In the case of "living persons", however, I hope we can agree that the over 6 billion of us would single-handedly crash the servers, in addition to being boring to read.— ] 08:53, 14 March 2007 (UTC) |
