Category talk:Areas of Greater Manchester

Untitled
What's the rationale for this category? The only formally recognised administrative Districts are now historical entities (ie Metropolitan Boroughs are larger than and not the same as Districts). There is also a List of Places in Greater Manchester. Don't these two categories one duplicate the other? Are both needed? If so, why? Cosmopolitancats 01:56, 9 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Its inline with national consistency. Every county of England on Wikipedia has one of these (worded to a simillar effect). List of places in Greater Manchester is an article, not a category, thus no duplication exists here. See WP:CAT for an explanation of why categories are needed. However that said, I think both the article and category could be more clearly defined. Jhamez84 10:56, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
