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).
basic guidance
Category
Don't create a category if it does not have any members.
Year page after 1900
When creating a year page (e.g. 1962, just use the {{year}} template will add it to the category:1962 and that's it. That category will then be a subcategory of it's decade Category:1960s
Year page before 1899
When creating a year page (e.g. 1535, just use the {{year}} template will add it to the category:1535 and that's it. That category will then be a subcategory of it's century Category:1500s
