Editall jdaw1 Posted March 25, 2006 Editall Posted March 25, 2006 How many sites are needed for a surname to have its own sub-category in Personal Homepages? For instance, looking at Society: People: Personal Homepages: W, I observe that the Wongs got their own category, which, with 70 sites, is fair enough. But the Wiggins achieved it with only 3 sites; the Wyss with 2; the Whitts with 1; and most impressively, the Weiners, Warrs; and the Wiltshires with none at all. How many does it need? Or is it determined by the average quality of the sites (explaining the divide-by-zero cases)? (The motivation for this question can be guessed from another thread.)
jimnoble Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 As with other categories, around 5 with unique content.
jeanmanco Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Sometimes a category is created with a handful of sites and then all of them gradually go dead, leaving the sort of picture you see there.
motsa Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 (The motivation for this question can be guessed from another thread.)Julian, little Sophia's page would be better suggested to http://dmoz.org/Home/Family/Babies/Baby_Homepages/W/ (congrats, by the way -- she's a sweetie ).
Editall jdaw1 Posted March 26, 2006 Author Editall Posted March 26, 2006 1. Thought so, but then why not delete the categories that become empty? 2. Good suggestion (the ODP is so big -- I know so little of it), but it's actually done by the first name of the baby (so you know more, but still not all). Hence submitted to Home: Family: Babies: Baby Homepages: S. 3. Also, the baby thing is meant to have an upper age limit of 4, yet there are some suspects there born in the late 1990s (and at least one deceased, who should be moved to Society: Death: In Memoriam: Children). Yet another category requiring maintenance, I suppose.
