Conservapedia talk:Editing article and talk pages (view source)
Revision as of 11:51, April 26, 2008
, 11:51, April 26, 2008→City/town/county names as article titles?
::::: I agree on the guideline/rule distinction, whatever that means! This will be a Manual of Style "rule". I guess the difference is that failing to follow the Manual of Style is not (normally?) a punishable offence, but having it in the Manual of Style justifies anyone else (a sysop in this case, as only they can "rename" pages) changing the article to conform to the Manual of Style.

:::::: I agree with Philip's interpretation; see my response to Learn Together above for my thoughts on "enforcement." Whatever we decide on, it shouldn't be a stick with which to beat users; rather, it should be a way to give a professional consistency to a subset of Conservapedia's articles.

:::::::My take on this would be the following:
::::::::Country, state, province are unique; each would have separate articles (Mongolia, New York, Alberta, etc)
::::::::City articles that don't have to have countries or states attached as part of the article title, as they are recognized world-wide (Los Angeles, Lisbon, London, New York City)
::::::::City articles that ''do'' have to have countries or states attached as part of the article title (Lisbon, Texas; Saginaw, Michigan; London, Ontario)
::::::::Counties would be listed as Rutherford County, Tennessee; Genesse County, Michigan; Pima County, Arizona. [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 07:51, 26 April 2008 (EDT)
