Northern Ireland wasn't created until 1922, prior to this it was part of the country of Ireland. Northern Ireland categories prior to 1922 are misleading, ahistorical and inappropriate. The contents, largely the "Category:XXXX in Belfast", need moving to the appropriate "Category:XXXX in Ireland", unless it's already included there. --Sionk (talk) 19:58, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

- I notice that there is a template ({{Belfastyear}}) that was simply categorizing all "Year in Belfast" categories under "Year in Northern Ireland". I have fixed it to send pre-1922 categories simply to "Year in Ireland". Josh (talk) 19:03, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
- I have kept the nominated categories as redirects for now, mainly so they are not simply inadvertently recreated, but they can be deleted later if deemed unnecessary. Josh (talk) 19:07, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
Valid category
[edit]Not in truth sure whether this category should exist. I guess it depends whether the Northern Ireland is a political entity or just a geographical description. Either way, it seems to be needed by the Belfastyear template. -- Chris j wood (talk) 10:11, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
