Conversion process
The articles covering Swedish municipalities are currently not possible to distinguishe from articles covering cities from which they have received their names. Even if many of the municipality articles still are little more than stubs, there is a value in being able to distinguish between the city and the geographically larger, political entity, that is the municipality. The intention is to achieve this by moving all of the 290 municipality articles from the current naming format "Karlshamn" to "Karlshamn Municipality". Links relating to the municipality will need to be disambiguated, but the majority of the links will need no disambiguation as they refer to the city rather than to the municipality. There will be a process where by the articles are moved and the cities and towns separated to their own articles. During the stages of this process it will not be possible to continously update the municipality lists and because of this the will be suspended and replaced by the Category:Municipalities of Sweden, which always will contain an updated list of the process.
The lists affected are:
- List of Swedish municipalities (Old revision) (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=List_of_Swedish_municipalities&oldid=6165147)
- List of Swedish municipalities by county (Old revision (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=List_of_Swedish_municipalities_by_county&oldid=6165149))
- List of Swedish municipalities by population (Old revision (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=List_of_Swedish_municipalities_by_population&oldid=6165151))
- List of Swedish municipalities by wealth (Old revision (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=List_of_Swedish_municipalities_by_wealth&oldid=6165152))
The Municipalities of Blekinge County have been converted and can regarded as a form of display case of the conversion. -- Mic 14:50, 26 Sep 2004 (UTC)
The templates planned for each of the municipalities are covered in two WikiProjects: WikiProject Swedish municipalities and WikiProject Swedish cities. -- Mic 08:47 18 Jul 2003 (UTC)
