Talk:Columbia-Shuswap Regional District

Merge Electoral Area C and D articles

there was never any good reason for those to be written at all; they are only statistical areas and relevant only in elections, not as geographic places; any information on those pages is just as easily included here.Skookum1 (talk) 20:35, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

• Support Agree with Skookum1 100 percent. Lets merger any relevant content and redirect to the one page.Moxy (talk) 20:56, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
• Comment Once these are done, and others like them, Category:Regional district electoral areas in British Columbia will be an empty cat and ripe for a CfD as well.Skookum1 (talk) 21:29, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
• Against CSDs deserve their own articles, and a few have unorganized areas in other provinces have been saved from deletion (and those are less notable than RDAs). -- Earl Andrew - talk
  • Comment That's fine if they're titled "census subdivisions" but they're not; electoral areas are not "valid geographic objects" with any more purpose than head-counting and voting. It's one thing for StatsCan to use them as census areas; quite another to, say, start a category "people from Cariboo A, British Columbia" or (as has often happened) people write glowing travelogues and recreation guides to go with them. If they're important as census areas title them that. In British Columbia English, also, someone referring to them as electoral areas will not refer to them by the StatsCan name+letter format, but as "EA H" or "Electoral Area H".Skookum1 (talk) 22:01, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

test template/change

Needing to see this template for possible changes; seems to include rd cat within it as the rd cat continues to display but isn't in visible text: {{Subdivisions of British Columbia}}Skookum1 04:49, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
