Many editors argued for merging them with the articles for the governmental unit (county, city) in which they are located, expressing sentiments similar to those in this proposed guideline. (noted by Edison 17:03, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text:  It was a rhetorical question, the point being that this guideline is in such broad useage that no one need consultation, nor is there an official body that approves such guidelines.   Wikipedia works by consensus, and I do believe that the consensus amongst those with common sense agreed this was a sound guideline to reduce strife within the community.

message: I'd presume that places on the UNESCO list are definitely beyond "local" curse. National parliaments, national cathedrals (where these exist) are not local either. What about less obvious local places, i.e. Flatiron Building or Basilica of San Domenico? Draw me the line. NVO (talk) 23:41, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I had occasion to refer this essay to a person who wants to write an article about a historic preservation overlay zone in Los Angeles and call it a "neighborhood." I found this piece helpful in organizing some of my own thoughts as well. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 02:08, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  I like this. 

message: This proposal has now been existence more than ten years without being accepted, and it is a large number of years since there was any discussion about it here. Isn't it time to tag it as ? FOARP (talk) 18:59, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
