Lists of municipalities
editI'd like to let you know that Mattximus and I are working on improving lists of municipalities for provinces in Spain. We aim at getting all of them to featured list status, which has already been achieved for Albacete. Right now, we've got a couple more (Guadalajara and Toledo) as featured list candidates, where they would require suggestions for improvement. Comments are welcome there. I mention it here, should anyone be interested in having a look at them. Kind regards, Alavense (talk) 09:44, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

edit Hello, |
Does WikiProject Geography cover all town and village articles?
editI've encountered many articles that fall under the scope of WP:WikiProject Cities (such as town, village, and city articles) that have also been added to WikiProject Geography (see Talk:Ferdows and Talk:Taheriyeh, towns and villages in Iran, and Talk:Lesnoye Ukolovo, a rural locality in Russia). However, the inclusion of these types of articles in WP:Geography is rare, and most town and city articles haven't been added to WP:Geography. My question is: do these articles actually belong at WP:Geography, or do they not? If they do, what criteria should be met for, say, a village article to be included in WP:Geography? And if they don't, then they could be removed from the project. Nythar (💬-🍀) 07:56, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

- Cities is a subset of human geography. Any article which deals with a populated place should be included in Wikipedia:WikiProject Cities. Any article which deals primarily with the physical geography of a populated place should also be included in Wikipedia:WikiProject Geography. My two bits. Yours aye, Buaidh talk e-mail 01:34, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- That makes sense. I had been wondering why numerous articles were added to both WikiProjects because it didn't make sense to me why we'd include regular WP:Cities articles in WP:Geography; it seemed a bit excessive. Nythar (💬-🍀) 05:59, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

edit| Hello, |
Looking for reviews
editguys I just added a lot of links to the Geography sidebar, Human geography and Geography topics templates, can some of you check to see if it is appropriate or should I continue adding links. I personally think that these templates should have all the branches of geography that there are articles of (my limit is just the articles with titles "Something geography") (not the human geography one for those outside it of course) and therefore should add their respective links to the templates Atakes Ris (talk) 12:18, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
- side note: all my edits are based on pre-existing wikipedia articles (see Outline of geography and Category: Geography) and aims to remove the inconsistencies in the templates Atakes Ris (talk) 13:12, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Proposed swapping Vital article level 1 Human history with vital article level 2 Geography.
