I think we need a "history" category for debates and forum posts. There has been a steady flow of history-themed debates with categories such as "philosophy" simply because there is no option for "History."

@MisterChris

This seems like a more promising category suggestion than some others that have been mooted. Maybe chat with DebateArt.com, the site owner, about this.

@bsh1

I have, he seems on board with it. It should help broaden the scope of our debates some I think.
