This category (and within its own specific purpose, the analogous Category:Place of death missing) is intended to be placed in the biographical entries of individuals who flourished in historically-recent centuries and whose birthplace has not been indicated in their biographical entry. While this category also includes individuals appearing in Category:Possibly living people, living individuals should be listed within Category:Place of birth missing (living people). For individuals from antiquity and others from the less-remote past whose period of activity occurred before the second half of the 19th century, please use (in most instances) Category:Place of birth unknown.
