Does this list also include suburbs of cities within the West Midlands county? - Erebus555 17:38, 19 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Don't see why it should not. A place is a place regardless of whether it's a town, village, hamlet, suburb, exburb, district, neighbourhood, estate, etc. Saga City 01:55, 20 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Move?

Should this list be moved to "List of places in the West Midlands (county)" in order to disambiguate the title? While the introductory paragraph makes it clear that it refers to the county not the region, the title is open to both interpretations. TheGrappler (talk) 17:09, 16 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Agree - but drop the 'the' - i.e. List of places in West Midlands (county) S a g a C i t y (talk) 17:16, 16 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Ah, "the West Midlands" sounds more like it's referring to the region. An excellent point. TheGrappler (talk) 18:28, 16 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
