Historical / actual events
editI think it is a mistake to lump all operas in this category into Category:Works based on actual events because quite a few aren't. Those operas that are indeed based on actual events, should be categorized as Category:Operas based on actual events. To a lesser extent, the same applies to Category:Operas based on real people as a parent of this category; e.g. I suspect that Die toten Augen, set in the 1st century, or Catalanii's Loreley, set in the 16th, are not based on real people.
This problem can easily be rectified by deleting this category. There is already Category:Operas by period of setting which contains (almost) the exact same categories as this one.
