Talk:Chennai/Anna Nagar

Anna Nagar
Anna Nagar is a suburb of Chennai. In the future it might be worth considering it as an independent article, However, as Chennai has not yet been split into districts and Anna Nagar has no major attractions, I recommend redirect to Chennai for the time being. Here's the WP article on Anna Nagar for reference:. (WT-en) WindHorse 08:29, 25 July 2007 (EDT)
 * Keep, at least for now. We are somewhat inconsistent in the way we handle suburbs of large cities.  However, if it really is a suburb (and I realize that the term connotes different things in different places), the norm seems to be that if someone goes to the effort of creating a page for the suburb, it stays put, until a more integrated approach to the metropolitan area is taken. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 09:59, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
 * I disagree (ad hoc districting is evil), but even by that logic it should be under Chennai/Anna Nagar, not the present name. (WT-en) Jpatokal 13:12, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
 * Redirect. I agree with Jani, I would really prefer to see districting & regioning done systematically, it can be a major pain to undo ad hoc districting when creating a valid district scheme. --(WT-en) Peter Talk


 * Redirect. I authored this article and I think it should be redirected to Chennai.


 * I removed the VFD and archived the discussion, but Jani's right: if Chennai is to have a substructure (and it's a big enough city to justify one), it should be done in a more orderly, reasoned way than just sticking random districts into the structure. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 15:42, 12 August 2007 (EDT)
