Maybe we should drop the counties and go a bit more thematic, per Cmadler's suggestion on the article talk page. Youngamerican 19:35, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. states/state templates lists and displays all 50 U.S. state (and additional other) templates. It potentially can be used for ideas and standardization. // MrD9 07:26, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
I feel that 25,000 might be a little low. That is a big suburb in most other states. It makes us sound like we are reaching. youngamerican ( ahoy-hoy) 19:10, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
There is currently an ongoing discussion regarding standardization of state templates (primarily regarding layout and styling) at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject U.S. states/state templates. An effort was made earlier this year to standardize Canadian province templates (which mostly succeeded). Lovelac7 and I have already begun standardizing all state templates. If you have any concerns, they should be directed toward the discussion page for state template standardization. Thanks! — Webdinger BLAH | SZ 23:07, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
Looking through the current listing of small cities, I'm not sure that the current standard (>10,000) really gives an accurate picture of the cities in the state. We end up with several unincorporated places that are effectively suburbs (Teays Valley, Cross Lanes) while regionally important cities like Elkins are left off.
I'd like to propose that we only show incorporated places. I'd also like to either lower the population threshhold or redefine it in some manner such as to eliminate places like South Charleston that are really just suburbs. (Maybe the place cannot be listed if it is in the same county as another listed place?)
This is somewhat of a subjective listing, but to my mind these are the major "small cities" in West Virginia we should be showing:
Maybe also:
In a nutshell, I'd like to see the listing redesigned to list the places that are basically the hubs of economic activity for their respective regions in the state. Thoughts? Brian Powell ( talk) 04:23, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
