keep please but should this be in the 20th century category not the 21st it says the 20th century also includes year 2000 so maybe check that Yuckfoo 03:02, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Good point Yuck, there's actually a Category:Schools established in 2000 so I put it there. Kappa 03:32, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - This brings up a basic flaw with the naming of categories for established year. For decade categories, we start on years ending in zero (e.g. 1920s not 3rd decade of 20th century). Example: Category:Schools established in 1900 is under Category:Schools established in the 19th century. However, Category:Schools established in the 1900s is a decade sub-cat under Category:Schools established in the 20th century. Now, I suspect many people would consider 1900 to be in the 1900s. Also, most regular people generally think 2000 is the first year of a new century, regardless of what's technically accurate. I suppose it's to late now, but all the century categoreis should have been in the format Category:Schools established ##00-##99 (avoiding use of the word century). --rob 19:52, 13 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
