Talk:Gemeinde

Turn into disambiguation page

It currently interwiki-links to the de:Gemeinde which is mainly interwiki-linked by Wikidata to municipality here. It also talks about various forms of "Gemeinden" in various countries and languages. Despite the fact that it is the only "Gemeinde" page (but only because it a non-english word in the english WP), I would call it what it is, a disambiguation page. Or, even better, merge with municipality and redirect.--Aeroid (talk) 11:51, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

No, there are more pages about the local forms of municipalities. This about the german form of muncipality. It is the same but the german law is not the same as the dutch, romanian or US law about municipalities and there is also the cultural diferences. Carsrac (talk) 11:58, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

Closing merge proposal, but support change to a disambiguation page. Klbrain (talk) 15:20, 2 December 2017 (UTC)

After the move of the page by @Cabayi: I have removed this page for the old Wikidata item and created a new one. It's very close to Congragation, but I leave it to a native speaker to merge, if appropriate. At least the Municipality of Germany sitelinks are fixed now. Thanks. --Aeroid (talk) 09:38, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

@Aeroid: Haha, I didn't notice yesterday Cabayi even moved this discussion to the wrong headword. Oh my. I can't correct this because I don't have suppressredirect powers so I guess the damage is forever. I'll add a note to the talk page that this one was swapped with.

As a native speaker (of German, assuming that's what you meant) I have no opinion on whether this page should be merged into Congretation, one way or the other. I don't know enough about the subject. I created Gemeinde (theology) as a new page because it seemed like the pragmatic thing to do and because I wouldn't have been qualified do to the merger in any case, for want of education in this subject area.

(The Municipality links never went to this page. They stayed with the dab. I fixed the 90 or so links to the dab that there were in article space but that wouldn't have affected any links to this headword.)

Anyway, if someone were to propose a merge of this page I would not oppose it. Damvile (talk) 10:27, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
