Good article, but

Not a single source given. Is this all true? The history of Svinjarevci seems fascinating. 82.5.146.168 (talk) 13:27, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There is a requested move discussion at Talk:Peter Krešimir IV of Croatia#Requested move 15 December 2023 that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:13, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Croatian settlement articles mass creation II

Previously: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Croatia/Archive 5#Croatian settlement articles mass creation

While @Joy and I are preparing for a wider discussion on the creation of the remaining 3200 Croatian settlement stubs, it'd be good to gather some sources to "illustrate the body of scholarly and other work out there on the topic of these settlements". Feel free to join!

  • Naselje
  • Croatian law with tables of municipalities and settlements
  • Register of spatial units of the State Geodetic Administration of the Republic of Croatia, Wikidata Q119585703 whose data is used by the Croatian Bureau of Statistics in 2021 Croatian census: population data by age, sex, settlement (in Croatian and English), Croatian Bureau of Statistics, 22 September 2022, Wikidata Q118496886
  • All those settlements are on the List of Croatian settlements and delivery post offices, Wikidata Q125763583 (follow the Qid for their search engine link)
  • Many will have a school (usually as "područna škola")
  • While all municipalities list their settlements on their websites, some are more verbose: vrlika.hr or vratisinec.hr or lovinac.hr is my quick random choice. Some histories go back many centuries ago.
  • When it comes to scholarly work, one can find 700 pp books like Narodna umjetnost: Studije i građa u Sinjskoj krajini covering history and ethnography of a region, old settlements included. IMO, lack of sources is not a problem, it's the lack of people who'd write articles. Creating articles from scratch is a tedious process (waste of time for humans for sure), having something like Dubrava, Split-Dalmatia County should be a good start.
