Commons:Categories for discussion/2014/01/Category:Maps by year
With our current scheme, Category:1923 maps could include both maps created in 1923 (but depicting 1910), and maps created in 2011 (but depicting 1923). Would it be over-categorization to create new sub-categories for every year along the lines of Category:Maps showing 1923 and Category:Maps created in 1923 ? Please note that many of these categories only contain one or two files. Thanks for your input. Themightyquill (talk) 19:18, 31 January 2014 (UTC)

- Definitely support. Current situation does not make sense. By now I will edit the template. BartekChom (talk) 10:59, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
Category:Maps by year created and Category:Maps by year shown created, but there is still a lot of sorting to be done. Use {{MapsYearShown}}, {{MapsDecadeShown}} and {{MapsYearCreated}}. - Themightyquill (talk) 08:31, 22 August 2016 (UTC)
