Talk:List of hamlets in Alberta

message: I just deleted a large swath of communities from the list of hamlets as they were not officially recognized as hamlets by Alberta Municipal Affairs according to its 2009 Municipal Codes.  Perhaps those that were deleted could be listed in a new article for other unincorporated communities in Alberta (i.e., unincorporated settlements, unincorporated places, or localities, etc). --Hwy43 (talk) 10:30, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that those removed from this list, and not listed in List of ghost towns in Alberta, should be deleted as they are not notable. 117Avenue (talk) 22:52, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

text: I have listed all short, not notable settlements at Articles for deletion/January 9. 117Avenue (talk) 00:11, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

text: Is it possible to compile a list of formerly registered settlements (whether they were a hamlet, village, or town) somewhere? Maybe on List of ghost towns in Alberta, just explain they are not registered Ghost Towns either. I think that that could be informative, just like in List of cities in Alberta#Cities the paragraph on former cities is informative. 117Avenue (talk) 00:54, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of hamlets 

message: I've just finished updating population figures for a bunch of hamlets.  The figures are from breakdowns of municipal censuses conducted by specialized and rural municipalities between 2006 and 2009 inclusive, where these censuses were accepted by Alberta Municipal Affairs (AMA) and where the breakdown figures are verifiable from official municipal websites.  I have figures for more hamlets from municipal censuses conducted over the same time period, where the censuses were also accepted by AMA.  However, they aren't verifiable by links from municipal websites.  Instead, the figures were obtained through direct inquiries to the municipalities via email.  Although these figures aren't verifiable in terms of web links, they are in terms of these emails.  Shall I include these figures as well?  Their inclusion would increase the total number of hamlets with population figures in this article.  Cheers, --Hwy43 (talk) 07:34, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Tough to say, all populations should be included for comparison sake, but all facts must be verifiable. 117Avenue (talk) 00:13, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

text: Sure, include all available numbers. --Qyd (talk) 05:44, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hamlet populations 

message: I suspect I understand why the list of hamlets was originally broken into numerous alphabetical sub-tables instead of into one large table – ease of navigation within the list since the list was so long.  With the recent weeding out of approximately 140 communities that weren't actually hamlets, we are now down to a more manageable size.  As such, shall we consolidate all the sub-tables into one table?  This will allow us to sort all the hamlets by administering municipality or latest population.  The sortability functions already built into the sub-tables are not that helpful if you can only sort hamlets starting with the letter 'S' and not all hamlets. Thoughts?  Cheers, --Hwy43 (talk) 07:51, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, they should all be listed in one table for the sorts to work. Its still a long table, but that is how I think it should be done. 117Avenue (talk) 00:16, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
