Talk:List of World Heritage Sites in Germany

New article
Hi! I just created this list - feel free to add more facts, according to de:Welterbe in Deutschland. Especially the Tentative list section still needs to be translated, admittedly I've been lazy, but wanted to include it already. Ahoi Horst-schlaemma (talk) 17:49, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

World Heritage Sites in Germany → List of World Heritage Sites in Germany – If this article is a list, is categorized as a list and rated as a list, shouldn't it be named "List of List of World Heritage Sites in Germany", as all other lists at Category:Lists of World Heritage Sites?- ELEKHHT 00:32, 6 February 2014 (UTC)


 * No. This is supposed to follow the scheme of the corresponding German Wiki article de:Welterbe in Deutschland. It won't be merely a list, but also examine detailed information on the development, circumstances and special cases of the world heritage in Germany. Besides, even for lists I don't think "list" needs to be included in the articles name, since it's pretty much self-explaining. Cheers Horst-schlaemma (talk) 13:19, 6 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Move Per nom. It's a list. Doesn't really matter what the German wiki article is like. If/when this article is to the same standard, then possibly move it back.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 13:29, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Support per WP:CRITERIA, specifically consistency. There is no requirement that lists have to be named "List of..." however. But Lugnuts is correct that German Wikipedia practice is irrelevant here. --BDD (talk) 18:31, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Support per BDD. If and when the article changes to include more elaborate content (in the manner of its German language counterpart), then the question can be reconsidered.  Until then, guidelines are clear. Xoloz (talk) 03:58, 15 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Support, the implication of the oppose is wrong. Articles named list do all the things (example), there are featured lists. Nothing wrong with naming it consistent to others. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:27, 15 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Support yes, it's a list Maurice07 (talk) 19:01, 15 February 2014 (UTC)


 * So any article that consists of a list needs to be called "List of"? Why so? Why not call any other article "Article about" then? It doesn't really make a lot of sense. -- Horst-schlaemma (talk) 17:48, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Missing topics
Hi, some facts should be added here, like the general historical overview for Germany, the Dresden Elbe Valley needs to be mentioned; perhaps also entries of former tentative lists. It could all be inspired by de:Welterbe in Deutschland. Cheers, Horst-schlaemma (talk) 16:16, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Please move the Hamburg entry
Please move and expand the Speicherstadt and Kontorhausviertel (including the Chilehaus) in Hamburg entry from the "Tentative list" to "World Heritage Sites in Germany": http://www.businessinsider.com/afp-hamburgs-historic-port-warehouses-win-un-world-heritage-nod-2015-7 http://www.dw.com/en/hamburgs-speicherstadt-warehouse-district-made-world-heritage-site/a-18562386

New map available
If You like to use, see this map. Greetings Lencer (talk) 07:48, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I like this map. – ♠Vami _IV†♠  11:13, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Why did You Kill my map?
What is Your problem with my map It shows the current status and it works on mobile phones / tablets. Your map links to the citys, but that is nonsens. Because the citys are not World heritage. --Lencer (talk) 11:59, 8 September 2023 (UTC)


 * There's no good reason for having two maps one above the other. The new one has links, which is helpful and the labels are editable, which is also useful. Furius (talk) 12:09, 8 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Also, the new style is clickable, compact, updated regarding the previous clickable map, and consistent with lists for other countries, several of which are FLs. --Tone 13:06, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
 * No, it isn't usefull to have nonsens links to citys if the topic of the article is heritage sites. My map shows relationships between locations and also areas of the wadden sea and courses of the Limes. But hey, make the information simple, make wikipedia unnecessary. Good work, bye Lencer (talk) 13:11, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
