Articles in this section should also be in one of the subject area subcategories of Gloucestershire wherever appropriate as the subdivision of Wikipedia's English articles is based primarily on ceremonial counties. This practice is followed in the vast majority of unitary authority categories. Oliver Chettle 00:01, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
See Kingboyk's site for a reply from me. In addition most of South Glos is not the same as the City of Bristol so the argument above is bye the bye (or so the Duke of Beaufort claimed!). Bob aka Linuxlad
The following is pasted in from my Talk page, please make future replies here as I'll leave this page on my watchlist for a while.

Another policy discussion, which concludes with saying that ceremonial and traditional counties are deserving of a mention for historical reasons, but that we mainly use the administrative counties and districts: Wikipedia_talk:UK_Wikipedians'_notice_board#Traditional_Counties. -- kingboyk 19:39, 30 March 2006 (UTC) Category:Traditional county of Monmouthshire is interesting but probably overkill for our situation. -- kingboyk 23:28, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
South Gloucestershire clearly represents a separate entity from Gloucestershire as far as I'm concerned. There should definitely be a separate category for all things South Glos, as to have them under the incorrect heading of 'Gloucestershire' would be non-factual and misleading. At least I think so anyway.. ;_) Vanky 17:42, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
