Question on categorization of people into this category edit

I see that there are some people included in this category. Is this correct, or should they be recategorized? Also, I see a subcategory of Category:Extraordinary People here. Is that a valid category (that should be changed to proper capitalization) or should that be taken to CfD? Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 18:20, 31 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

If the people are living people, we should have a reliable source so identifying the people before including them in the category. Similarly, for any other category that might include people, living people (and, ideally, all people) should be included only if there is a source that uses that exact word to describe each person. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 20:06, 31 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
Not limited to living people. This category is a collection of people who were clearly important, but the selection of people seems to be completely arbitrary. --mfb (talk) 09:42, 31 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
