Merging pages?
I agree with having the two Fort Meade pages merged. If written well with clear sections there should be no confusion. Adavidb 15:44, 1 November 2006 (UTC) Makes sense, they are one in the same. Navyteacher86 12:54, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't know if it is such a good idea. One is for the census, and the other is the base itself. Others have themselve seperated: see Fort Belvoir, Virginia and Fort Belvoir. I think it would be better to leave them seperate. Radagast83 17:08, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Hundreds of census-designated places were made into new Geography/Demographics pages in October 2002 by Ram-Man as a way of populating Wikipedia. I don't believe this history in itself justifies leaving these pages separate from others regarding the same locations.Adavidb 08:01, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

I don't believe we should merge these pages...CDP's are completely seperate entities in discussion from military instalations and should be treated as such. Wrightchr 19:25, 27 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Do those who advocate separation of the information have reason to believe the geography/demographics data from the CDP does not correspond with that of the military base? (Why is it considered so separate?) Adavidb 03:22, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

I think keeping them separate would be a good idea. A military base is not the same thing as a CDP. &mdash; Matt Crypto 14:53, 28 November 2006 (UTC)


 * The CDP in question covers the same military base. Why not combine the information? It's only about geography and demographics. Adavidb 15:07, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

These should definitely be merged IMO. Since both articles cover different aspects of the same thing, they can seamlessly be combined. Others that have been combined include Fort Rucker, Fort Greely, Fort Bragg, and Fort Knox. --GregU 19:00, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

There is a problem with merging the two pages. The postal adress for the town of Fort Meade includes non-military addresses off the base that have nothing to do with military other than perhaps a large military clientele, schools for example. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.137.150.35 (talk) 16:18, 24 March 2013 (UTC)‎

County?
What county of Virginia? 76.218.100.214 (talk) 21:39, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Fort Meade is not in Virginia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.137.150.35 (talk) 16:18, 24 March 2013 (UTC)‎
 * More specifically, Ft. Meade is located in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. Scarletsmith (talk) 09:04, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

NSA Headquarters Missing
Even the article for the NSA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Security_Agency it is quite clear that the NSA has a notable installation here. There's even a photo of it on this article. So, is there a specific reason it's not included? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shoobe01 (talk • contribs) 00:06, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Template issue
I think one template needs to be removed as Fort Meade is in the Baltimore, and not the Washington, metropolitan area. I will remove it and I am open to any further objections. Heegoop 14:47, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
