Trondheim Region

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This region doesn't seem to be mentioned in the single source given, and I have found no official figures for it. Googling "[anywhere] region" will always find stuff (eg "Reims Region"), likewise "downtown Trondheim", "central Trondheim". They are just weakly defined notions. Any description of the area put here will duplicate the counties in which it resides ("Sør-Trøndelag" and "Nord-Trøndelag), ie Wikipedia:Content Forking, so to be avoided.

Snow keep. Recognized national subdivision, and as mentioned when deprodding less than 48 hours ago, the region "has a lot of presence in sources" and easily meets WP:GNG. All it takes is a search on the Norwegian Trondheimsregionen. Prior to storbymeldingen that made Trondheimsregionen a metropolitan region, the term was used solely in the sense of an inter-municipal collaboration. I am going to deprod Greater Bergen Region, similar the search term there is Bergensregionen. Sam Sailor 03:14, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @Sam Sailor: please consider addressing the concerns raised when de-proding, per WP:DEPROD. Thanks, Batternut (talk) 09:04, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep. Per the above comment. I found a science direct article on the region, which should be enough to establish notably. Cocohead781 (talk) 05:33, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep (as nominator). At last, some sources have been provided (not done when it was de-proded). Batternut (talk) 09:04, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
