Buildings and structures by year?

Is there a reason we aren't categorizing buildings and structures by year (year completed, I would think)? This would seem to be a natural fit for Category:Works by year which already includes books, films, paintings, plays and songs. --Dystopos 22:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- I would support this suggestion. Currently we have the Timeline of architecture in list form - a category system would at least provide us with a category summary from which we could compile the list. --Mcginnly | Natter 09:15, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- I too noticed that architecture articles oddly don't have actualy "By year" categories. The lists are nice, of course, but categories are usually a good idea too on top of lists.

- Since mass-categorization has become a hobby of mine, I'll see about setting up a category scheme for architecture by year which will mimic the Works by year format. Initial year of completion is the obvious choice (as opposed to years that additions were put on or the project expanded). But those sorts of details can be sorted out by your community. I'll just try and get the basic structure down for you and initially populate the new schema. Dugwiki 22:31, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
