Now that we have a lot more year pages, I'm starting to reorganize the years into subcategories. I think the general rule should be to follow Wikipedia as much as possible.
One difference is that I'm grouping all any pages earlier then 1899 into just centuries (1500s, 1600s, 1700s, 1800s), rather then by decades as we don't have as many pages.
Starting with 1900 (since I expect we will have many more pages), I suggest what has been done for Category:Books by year and start breaking down by decades. I hope this is not too confusing (that 1900s is the decade, not the whole century).
OK. I did the 1500s and 1600s to see how it looks. Which do you like better? grouping them or just listing all the years one by one?
