Hi, for the sake of consistency, I feel bulletin points are unnecessary here. Some of the World Heritage Sites are a single inscribed site that also encompasses many individual properties within; examples such as the island sites in the New Zealand Sub-Antarctic Islands, the many tomb sites in the Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties and the national parks in the World Heritage Site Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra. If you are making bulletin points, would you really want to make bulletin points to include all of these properties on the page? No, that would be way too much work, and the article would become incredibly, incredibly long.--TheLeopard (talk) 06:01, 21 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

I think just by using a longer heading to note some of these World Heritage Sites also includes sub-sites would be helpful; it doesn't have to include every properties in a World Heritage Site.--TheLeopard (talk) 06:01, 21 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

WHS list-articles

edit

Hi, i generally agree with your perspective expressed at Talk:List of World Heritage Sites in Europe. I wonder if u would choose to comment in latest (but a bit old now) discussion topics at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject World Heritage Sites.

Also, for your information, I mentioned working on list-tables of WHS sites, in draft form with intention to replace the current list-articles. These draft tables are currently under development still, at Wikipedia:WikiProject World Heritage Sites/Tables of WHS Sites for all but Europe, and at Wikipedia:WikiProject World Heritage Sites/Tables of WHS Sites EUR region for Europe (which includes America). I wonder if you would have comments or would like to join in developing these further?

Glad you are on board, anyhow, and hope you will keep up your good work!  :) Cheers, doncram (talk) 12:00, 21 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Refs

So there's a whole set of templates for making consistent, neat references, which should appeal to a Historical Materials mind. It's here - I refer to this page nearly every time I'm adding refs. Check the diff here to see one of the templates in action. Otebig (talk) 19:43, 4 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks! I was frustrated with that, not having Turrabian on hand! Chouji Ochiai (talk) 01:34, 6 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hello! Sorry that I didn't see this message before I edited it again. I only changed the name back to Meidan Emam because that's UNESCO's official name for the site, and I thought we should be consistent with their list. You can find their entry on it here: http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/115. If you'd still like to change it to Naqsh-e Jahan after reviewing this, then I won't change it back. Peace!

yes,i know but i'm Irani and in Iran this square called Naqsh-e Jahan Shahin (talk) 16:06, 8 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
Of that I'm aware, I'm just saying it's a list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites as designated by UNESCO, in consultation with the nominating parties. Still, I will not change it back if you feel strongly about it.--Chouji Ochiai (talk) 02:06, 9 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
