Talk:Qinhuangdao/Shanhaiguan

Merge with Qinhuangdao ?
This is a significant tourist destination, hence why it probably got its own article. Nevertheless, the town of Qinhuangdao to which it belongs does not have any district articles, and therefore it should (IMHO) be merged back up. Any objections? Andrewssi2 (talk) 14:16, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * If it is part of the urban center, the town itself, merge it, right. If it is a separate entity distant from the urban center but only technically part of the town, give it its own article as if it were a different place and disregard the technicality. In either case it shouldn't be considered a district under the town article, so I have changed the IsPartOf and deleted the corresponding category. Texugo (talk) 14:23, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I wonder if there something has been lost in translation. WP Qinhuangdao says that Qinhuangdao is a Prefecture-level city with a population of nearly 3million, and technically includes a few counties. So maybe we should think of Qinhuangdao as a county type region. AlasdairW (talk) 23:25, 12 March 2014 (UTC)


 * There is a city vs. prefecture ambiguity for most places in China. See 2nd paragraph at List of Chinese provinces and regions and the section on lower-level divisions later in that article. The administrative structure here is most likely made up of an authority for Q Prefecture and several for urban districts or rural counties under it. There is not likely to be anything by way of a distinct gov't for Q city. People from anywhere in the prefecture will say they are "from Q", including peasant types who farm miles from the actual city.
 * According to Shanhaiguan District, this one is a district of Q. I'd keep it as a separate article since it is a tourist destination. Pashley (talk) 00:28, 13 March 2014 (UTC)


 * If we keep as a separate article, how should the structure for Qinhuangdao look? Does an additional district article to cover the 'rest of Qinhuangdao' need to be created? Andrewssi2 (talk) 00:54, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Backslash?
Is there any particular reason why Qinhuangdao\Shanhaiguan and Qinhuangdao\Haigang ought to be written with the slash the wrong way? o.O ϒpsilon (talk) 06:58, 18 March 2014 (UTC)


 * It is because I made mistake :P Thanks for pointing it out! Andrewssi2 (talk) 07:16, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
