Talk:London Borough of Bromley

message: This article does what many do - it confuses "wards" - ie political areas - with settlements. Wards are usually determined by a set number of voters, so that each ward councillor has roughly the same people he/she is representing. Settlements are determined places, some of great antiquity (eg Beckenham) with others of rather less history (eg Bickley); and they have no set boundaries, such as wards have. To set them out by referring to the places named - as is done with, for example, with Chelsfield and Pratts Bottom takes a reader to two different articles, and ignores the fact that the heading of that paragraph is talking about one entity - the ward. In addition, Cator Cope is a red reference for the simple reason that there is no such place, and is part of the Beckenham area. It all shows a misunderstanding of the local government vs geographical facts.
The first list - that showing "districts and settlements - should be the one to have references to individual places; and the ward list should be just that - a list without references, just naming the wards. In fact, the two references given there show that, so maybe it doesn't even need to write out the complete list? Peter Shearan (talk) 11:02, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Wards vs "districts"

message: Noting the caveat above, I see that there isn't at present an article for the district of Plaistow and Sundridge (nor the Bromley Plaistow) - would it make sense to rename the existing Sundridge, London article to Plaistow and Sundridge? 86.27.79.11 (talk) 12:16, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

message: The Wikipedia articles of both Bromley and Hillingdon both state that they are the least densely-populated London borough.  Should someone try to work it out definitively and make a change somewhere? 79.77.54.149 (talk) 15:51, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Well spotted - just looking at the article's infoboxes, dividing the population by area, to the nearest whole number.....LB Bromley has an average of 5733 people per square mile across the borough, and LB Hillingdon has 6870. Bromley is less dense by quite a bit....I have just noticed the population density itself is also in the article's infobxes, pop per sq mile and sq km, although it rounds off, it too shows Bromley is less dense. I have altered the LB Hillingdon article acordingly. Carlwev  16:50, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
