Talk:Bourgogne-Franche-Comté

Sub-regions
What I wrote regarding Grand-Est, applies to this region, accordingly. 19 city articles are too many to be filed immediately under one unitary region. We need sub-divisions, and the most natural and logical ones would be the old regions Burgundy and Franche-Comté whose articles we could simply restore. At least Burgundy is still very well known as a cultural and traditional region even if it ceased to exist as an administrative division. --RJFF (talk) 21:25, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
 * For the bottom level region that this is, there is no upper limit to the number of city articles that can be listed, so having 19 city articles is not itself a reason for sub-dividing. I am not against sub-divisions on principle, but I am concerned about spreading information too thinly. There is no value in restoring the old articles, because this article used all of their content with additional content written by me, so a restoration would just be duplicating what we've already got, but worse.


 * If you want to create sub-region articles, they should have enough new content to be as complete as this one, without taking or copying large swathes of content from here. In my opinion, having one good article like this is miles better than having three patchy, half-empty articles.


 * I expect I will write a similar reply on Grand-Est in a minute. --ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 12:35, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
