Coordination with other list of post offices edit

Latest comment: 6 months ago3 comments2 people in discussion

I think there should be some better coordination, or a merger of sorts, between this list and the List of United States post offices in Colorado, which is a section in long-standing List of United States Post Offices. That is a list of _notable_ ones, i.e. having or deserving to have a Wikipedia article, often/usually by dint of being significant in ways recognized by listing on the National Register of Historic Places.

This list is what? A list of zip codes? It is a bit more than that, it could be a list of settlements/towns that have had a post office. But if this is a list of post offices, then it should link to articles about individual ones where they exist, and a "Name" column should give actual name of a post office, such as "U.S. Post Office and Federal Building (Denver, Colorado)" (later the Byron White United States Courthouse), when an actual name is known. And then, yes, a settlement/community/town column. Comments? --Doncram (talk) 04:26, 27 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

How does this relate to:

I'm not sure all of these, and this list, need to exist separately. I think some states have "List of settlements in State" which could include current and past ones, and I presume could include all current and former post office locations, and all ghost towns. But List of settlements in the United States#Colorado does not have any list at all, it just links to Colorado article and the first two above. --Doncram (talk) 04:31, 27 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Doncram: The List of populated places in Colorado now includes all Colorado post offices listed here, without the ZIP Codes and dates of operation, but with the location and elevation where available. The List of settlements in the United States#Colorado now includes all eight Colorado settlement lists, the most extensive of any U.S. state.
