Over the course of this template's history, there has been a fair amount of change in its default recategorisation scheme. Originally, the years were unsorted. Then, they were sorted by their last digit. Later, they were changed to no sort by letter (i.e. [[Category:1xx0s births| {{PAGENAME}}]]. As of this writing they are all sorted under the asterisk, as are lists ([[Category:1xx0s births|*{{PAGENAME}}]]). Can there be some discussion on the best system by which to sort these years? →Iñgólemo← (talk) 04:37, 2004 Dec 7 (UTC)
Just because, for example, Category:1947 births might include a few "c. 1947" cases where the exact year is not known, doesn't mean this is a category for "people born c. 1947" since it doesn't include people known to be born in 1946 or 1948, which would also be "c. 1947". If "people born in 1947" is not good enough for you, you'd have to use a more complicated wording like "people born in 1947 and people born c. 1947 whose exact birth year is not known".

Please can this template be edited to automatically include its transcluded categories as sub-cats of the relevant Beginnings by year cat. Thanks Greenshed ( talk) 20:20, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
Could someone update the template so that pages are included in the [year] beginnings category? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Numberguy6 ( talk • contribs)
I propose adding the newly created {{ Base category}} banner to this template (and to the {{ Death year category header}}), to make it clear that Albert Einstein should be in Category:1879 births, but Category:Albert Einstein should not. Any objections? I just did a cleanup, would be good to avoid in the future. Best, UnitedStatesian ( talk) 17:58, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
