Category talk:Airports in Washington, D.C.

"in"?

I'm sure this has been discussed somewhere (though I can't figure out where) but is "in" really appopriate here? We acknowledge on the Category page that none of these airports are in the District, but why use a title that is strictly speaking false in the first place? Why not "Airports serving Washington DC" or "Airports in greater Washington DC" or the like? --Jfruh (talk) 12:53, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

I think the title should be changed to "Airports Close to or Serving Washington D.C." Wikipedia is not supposed to promote false information, particularly here in the US where knowledge of geography is lacking. Washington D.C. is a city-state. The land for the District of Columbia was donated by the State of Maryland. And the city-state, with a population of about 600,000, is only a piece of the larger region that has a population of millions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.100.182.254 (talk) 18:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

particularly here in the US where knowledge of geography is lacking - Knowledge of history is apparently lacking for others. The land was donated by Maryland and Virginia. Also, the DoC is not a city-state. APK thinks he's ready for his closeup 13:36, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
