Garden cities and suburbs
There are several garden "cities" mentioned in the Garden city movement article - many of them actually called "villages". Rather than trying to work out which of these are cities or suburbs or something else, I propose generalizing this category to something like Garden Cities and Suburbs. --RichardVeryard 16:25, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I think they should be separate categories. Garden cities are more self contained and are isolated from larger metropolitan areas, garden suburbs are attached to larger cities. A category to which both subcategories belonged would be good though. dml 17:26, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Several of the places that are mentioned in the Garden city movement article seem to be neighbourhoods of larger cities, and so would be classified as garden suburbs according to your definition. The reason I'd prefer to have a single category is that it saves us having to work out (or dispute with interested parties) as to whether a given place counts as one or other. And it's not as if we are talking about a category with hundreds of links. I think people who are interested in the Garden City Movement will find a single undisputed category more useful than two disputed categories. --RichardVeryard 14:44, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
