On the CfD, I don't think that many of those engaged in the CfD realised how useful categories are within the database. With such category linking, it is pretty easy to produce comprehensive reports of living people, the amount of editing their articles get, and so on. We could if we decided to make an overnight decision to semiprotect all such articles, and I for one wouldn't object. But we could only do so if first we identified the articles on living people in a manner that enables them to be located quickly within our rather immense database.
