Name

[edit]

I think it should better be named Category:Wikipedia biographies of living persons, similarly to Category:Wikipedia neutral point of view, because it's not just about the policy. A category for verifiability could be made too. Cenarium (talk) 17:47, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds like a reasonable idea, though I'm unsure what else you wish to include in this category. --Eastlaw ^talk ⁄ _contribs 04:33, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I mean it's probably better to spell out BLP, and pages in it are not only concerned with the policy itself, for example with enforcement or some specific issues. There are many other pages that could be included, for example Wikipedia:Protecting BLP articles feeler survey, Wikipedia:BLP subject response, Wikipedia:BLP policy advises fix over delete... Maybe we could use a subcategory on essays about BLP, like for category:wikipedia verifiability. Cenarium (talk) 17:41, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
