Scope
Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 15:04, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Per Categories_for_discussion/Log/2019_February_5, this category only deals with individuals from Category:Historical Germanic peoples. It does not include individuals from modern Category:Germanic ethnic groups.
 * Per Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_March_21, the fact that modern people natively speak a language that belongs to the Germanic language family is WP:NONDEFINING for their career per WP:OCEGRS.
 * Per Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_May_12 and the factual current contents of Category:Germanic people by century, the 12th century (probably because the Viking Age ended then) serves as the cutoff point.
 * Ergo, all people belonging to Germanic peoples / Germanic ethnic groups that didn't yet exist in the 12th century (such as Category:Afrikaner people) are to be removed from this category. Cheers,
 * For the record, Category:Germanic ethnic groups was deleted per Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_April_9. – Fayenatic  L ondon 21:27, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
