Talk:Garrigues (comarca)

Garrigues (disambiguation)
I propose that when a person types "Garrigues" in the search box, that the link go directly to the Garrigues (disambiguation) page. I made the suggestion in the Editor assistance/Requests section, and I received this answer from User:Fluri:
 * The "search box" goes, by default, to the article with the exact name one types. If one types Garrigues, it takes you to the page by that name. The only way to accomplish what you describe would be to rename (move) the pages to the names you want. Firstly, you would move the Garrigues page to something like Garrigues, Spain and then move the Garrigues (disambiguation) page to Garrigues. None of this should be done, however, without posting to the talk page of both articles telling editors what you suggest doing. Only after a full discussion or, at least, providing ample opportunity for discussion, should you attempt such a move. In general, the principle is that the base name should be at the page that is most likely to be searched for. If most people entering Garrigues want the Spanish county, that should be the default but there should be a prominent at the top... — Dave (Talk | contribs) 15:14, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

All people interested in "Garrigues," should respond to this suggestion. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 20:36, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't have a problem with Garrigues being the title of a disambiguation page, but in any case the disambiguation page should follow the standards for a disambiguation page, not be a mid-length article on the dictionary meaning of the word followed by disambiguation. The article on the word as such should probably be at something like Garrigues (brushland). And, if someone chooses to do this, then they should also sort out the incoming links. - Jmabel | Talk 20:21, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

I am currently proposing that the Garrigues page should be replaced by the content now found on the Garrigues (disambiguation) page and the the material presently on the Garrigues page should be moved to a new page to be titled Les Garrigues, Catalonia If you have the time I would appreciate your comments on the Discussion page at Garrigues. I hope you will agree. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 20:34, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi. It seems like a good idea to me, but I'm concerned someone may object to "Les Garrigues, Catalonia", instead of "Les Garrigues, Spain" or "Les Garrigues, Lleida". I humbly suggest you call the new page simply "Les Garrigues", in an attempt to avoid any controversy. ↔ Dennywuh (talk) 22:19, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

You are correct. I don't believe there is a Les Garrigues anywhere but in Spain. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 22:54, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree with Jmabel: the disambiguation page can not be so long. I do not oppose the change, but the disambiguation page must be broken in one article and one "proper disambiguation" page.
 * By the way, both the coat of arms and the flag are taken from Catalan Wikipedia, where it can be seen that this pictures are copyrighted by Municat. --Xtv - (my talk) - (que dius que què?) 13:35, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

New version
I've made a new version of the Garrigues (disambiguation) page in accordance with the above suggestions. There are still some red links there, which I will fix when I have the time. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 15:06, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Shift of pages.
Per advice, I have pasted the Disambiguation text into this page, Garrigues, and made a new page, Les Garrigues, to hold the text that was formerly here. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 11:55, 7 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Absolutely not, never, no way do this. That is not the advice you were given. When you do that, it divorces the page history from the page to which it belongs and, among other things, it breaks the copyright chain on the submitted text. I suggested that "The only way to accomplish what you describe would be to rename (move) the pages to the names you want" [emphasis added]. Note that the advice was to rename or move the page, not to cut and paste the text... At the bottom of each article page is a "Move" link. That's what you need to use. I'll try to fix it. &mdash; Dave (Talk | contribs) 15:20, 7 December 2007 (UTC)


 * OK, at this point, it can't be fixed without the intervention of an administrator. What we need is for an admin to move the page currently at Garrigues to Les Garrigues, over top of what's there now. Then we need the admin to move what's now at Garrigues (disambiguation) over top of what's currently at Garrigues. Finally, he will have to delete the page currently at Garrigues (disambiguation). That will accomplish the page moves while keeping the page histories intact. After those moves are complete, GeorgeLouis, I suppose, as the proponent, will have to tweak the text on both pages to make sure the links are correct and to put some disambiguation text in, where appropriate. Finally, the "What links here" will have to be checked for each page and each of those links will have to be checked to make sure that they point to the correct page at its new location. There's way more to moving pages around than just cutting and pasting text. Please make a page move request at Wikipedia:Requested moves] that details the sequence I described, here. When the moves are done, then the rest must follow. Please read [[Help:Moving a page before attempting something like this again. &mdash; Dave (Talk | contribs) 15:40, 7 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I think that I have just completed the expected moves properly. Please let me know if there is any other point where I can help. Best. olivier (talk) 18:40, 7 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I have further moved "Les Guarrigues" to Garrigues (comarca) which follows the same disambiguation format as other comarcas. olivier (talk) 18:43, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Garrigues Flag.png
Image:Garrigues Flag.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
