The result of the discussion was:merge as nominated. ℯxplicit 02:59, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, most year categories contain only one or two articles. A decade level is more appropriate, like with the Byzantine Empire and the Holy Roman Empire in the Middle Ages. (signed a day later Marcocapelle (talk) 07:11, 14 September 2018 (UTC))[reply]
Generally support -- We actually have two kinds in category contents here: (1) 1xxx in France and (2) an article on an event of foundation. Care is needed to ensure that the French character of the latter is not lost. Peterkingiron (talk) 10:31, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support all The point at which "by year" categories could commence is the Modern era (usually taken to follow the Fall of Constantinople) but for convenience, 1500 may be used. Laurel Lodged (talk) 20:21, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: No clear definition and the article creator has added articles for which it seems completely inappropriate. I'm going to ping another Admin, User:UsGraham87 who has some experience with this editor. At the moment I've left the articles in this category although I don't think they belong.
