List of Municipalities in the Golden Horseshoe

[edit]
  1. Best work: This complete information is unavailable on other websites
  2. Easy to navigate: With images to help readers to read the list
  3. Well-Constructed: Information sorted in a systematic way.
  4. Comprehensive: Covers all towns in the Golden Horseshoe
  5. Stable: Not in any edit wars.
  6. Images: Precise images with colour keys.
  7. Factually accurate: Information taken from atlases, and references given.
  8. Layout: Easy to read, information divided into categories.

The list should be nominated as a featured list because this list provides complete information of ALL towns and townships in the Golden Horseshoe. The list is filled with complete information, and an image to help explain the list. As stated in the criteria, the list is accurate, stable (not in any edit wars), and well-constructed. The list also provides references.

(Self-Nomination)

  • Oppose.

This list is not [1(b)] comprehensive. It lists nothing but the cities' names. Population, Density, ruling party, economy, founding dates? We need some more info for this list to exemplify our best work.

As for 1.(c), the sentence about population in the lead is not cited. And single reference to which the article referes not once by way of inline citations gives one pause.

As for 1.(f), I belive the article needs work. This list is visually bland and does not encourage the reader to navigate it. In this respect, List of municipalities of Portugal exemplifies our best work. Finally, per 2(a), the lead needs work. Keep plugging away and use the the portugal list as an example. If Golden Horseshoe gets to that level, I'll be glad to vote for it. :) --Zantastik talk 00:13, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comments: In addition to Zantastik's comments, I think that this list would be improved with each county somehow having its location given in a map. Also, the one reference given worries me a little. How is this list doing more than regurgitating the atlas? Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 00:41, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Miss Madeline. --Zantastik talk 01:55, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
