Renaming[edit]

This category was renamed from "by time period" to "by period" following Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2012 April 30#Category:Categories by time period. The sub-categories for each state should likewise be renamed from "by era" to "by period" when someone has the time and interest to nominate them at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy. – Fayenatic London (talk) 12:29, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
