Talk:List of mergers and dissolutions of municipalities in Japan

message: I think it would be more effective if this list is compiled according to prefecture rather than the merge date.  Photojpn.org 05:57, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

How about if we make this a standard section in each prefecture article?  I've been updating some of the prefecture articles with this information, see for example Ehime Prefecture.  I'm not overly happy with the formatting and have used a variety of formats in various places.  I think the format I like best so far is what I used in Ochi District, Ehime, i.e. a section titled "mergers" with subsections (by date) for each merger with text describing the merger (although perhaps the participants should simply appear following the "merged into" entity rather than be in a bullet list). -- Rick Block 19:07, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

text: I've just added a mergers section to Fukui Prefecture.  Comments? -- Rick Block 04:45, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

text: IMO, the reason to include this in the prefecture articles is so that you know what you're looking at.  In particular, without this information the list of cities, districts, towns/villages is relatively ambiguous (is it current or historical, i.e. do all the listed cities/towns/villages still exist?).  Perhaps I'm wrong, but I'd think creation of a new city or dissolution of a district (for example) are relatively significant events in the history of a prefecture and should be included (somewhere) in the prefecture article.  If this gets too voluminous, we could have some sort of "as of" sentence with a link to someplace where the full list is provided. -- Rick Block 17:43, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

My main question is this: With that said and done, how come that some have errors in each page (the ones entitled "List of mergers in "???" Prefecture", the ones Ive continue to create and to re-modify)? I was wondering if it can be re-investigated bit-by-bit. Please let me know if possible. jlog3000 (talk) 12:31, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
