Talk:Arrondissement

Some decisions to be made about the Paris Arrondissements. Rough outline below. -- Tarquin 07:21 Jul 26, 2002 (PDT)

Disambiguation problem

Paris is not the only city in France with Arrondissements. For that matter, is the word used in other countries for other things?

AFAIK, Lyon has them too, perhaps Lille (not sure)

Style for names

We need to standardize how they are referred to in text. Options are:

• 20th arrondissement
• XX^e arrondissement (usually written like this in french)
• XX^th arrondissement (a sort of mix n match)

Not the mix-and-match, please; that will look wrong to almost everyone. I'm neutral as between the other two.

A page each?

Does each Arrondissement need a page to itself?

Wait and see--if they do, people can wikify them and make the articles. I wouldn't make them links yet, though. Vicki Rosenzweig

For the page names, see above.
