Talk:Gmina Dobroszyce

All the article stubs about the tiny villages in Gmina Dobroszyce should be merged into this one. Each article just lists the town's population and maybe its location. All that information could be placed in a single table in this article. The Wikipedia notability guidelines say "If only a few sentences could be written and supported by sources about the subject, that subject does not qualify for a separate page, but should instead be merged into an article about a larger article or relevant list."

It's normal for each village to have a separate page (the same is done in the USA, in the UK, etc.) It's expected that in the future people will be able to expand these articles. Also having separate pages enables each place's coordinates to be transferred to external applications such as the Wiki-Atlas (I don't think these currently support inline coordinates of places mentioned within articles, though it would be good if they did).--Kotniski (talk) 11:06, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Why not just add the coordinates directly to the wiki-atlas, and leave them out of wikipedia? That way there wouldn't be all these tiny article stubs. The coordinates are not very helpful outside an atlas. Also, several of the article stubs about these villages don't even list their coordinates, just their populations.

I don't see any different notability guidelines for villages than for anything else, so it seems that the general notability guidelines apply.

If, in the future, some village becomes notable, someone could write an article about it then. Wikipedia doesn't have an article stub about every individual on Earth just in case someone someday wants to expand the article about that individual. Similarly, it doesn't make sense to have an article stub about every tiny village just in case someone wants to expand it someday. If the village isn't notable now, there shouldn't be an article about it.

If there are also a bunch of nearly empty article stubs for tiny villages in the USA, the UK, etc., then of course those should be merged in the same way I'm suggesting for these Polish article stubs. Leonporter (talk) 17:33, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Never mind, since Kotniski showed that these articles can be expanded, I have removed my merge proposal. Leonporter (talk) 20:19, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
