* '''Keep '''- per previous consensus on these categories (eg [[Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2008_April_21#High_school_alumni_(United_States)|High school alumni (United_States) in 2008]]).

* (ec) '''Comment'''. This is one of many such categories (e.g. over 90 in [[:Category:Alumni by high school in New Jersey]] alone) so I guess this is a test case. It would be better to listify rather than straight delete. Has anyone investigated whether this data (person X was at high school Y) has/can be stored in Wikidata in a way that en wp users could easily access it? <b>[[User:DexDor|DexDor]]</b>^{[[User talk:DexDor|(talk)]]} 17:53, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
