Talk:List of gaunpalikas of Nepal

Replacing contents of page
The contents of this page should be replaced with. The list in the link is complete. Also, listing gaupalikas by province would be more effective since some districts are split between provinces. Dirghayu12 (talk) 12:24, 14 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your input. I agree that the Gaupalika should be grouped by province. And I have made the changes now. You are welcome to edit the page. I believe this list is more comprehensive and new articles has to be created for Gaupalika, rather than linking to old VDCs articles. This list has better info that can be used as reference in making new pages too. I will love a couple of hands on this :-) Bishal Shrestha (talk) 05:54, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

Renaming the page
The page should be renamed to List of gaupalikas of Nepal in order to avoid any confusion as to where the gaupalikas are from. Dirghayu12 (talk) 03:14, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Just trying to lend a hand, while the situation of grouping the former VDCs within the new gaupalikas on this article can be eventually solved as possible, for historical local administrative unit purposes. jlog3000 (talk) 14:29, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
 * The page should be renamed to List of gaunpalikas of Nepal (नेपालका गाउँपालिकाहरू). gaupalika in english can be gau (cow) + palika (a lady caretaker) meaning a lady caretaker of a cow / many cows. (गौपालिका). Gaunpalika = Gaun (village) + Palika (a caretaker or the municipality) गाउँपालिका. 👤 Raju 💌 06:58, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

List of gaunpalikas of Nepal → List of Rural Municipalities of Nepal – Gaunpalikas (गाउँपालिकाहरू) is in Nepali language, it's called Rural Municipalities in english. (here is an example.) Nirmal Dulal (talk) 05:45, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
 * OPPOSE. The Bundestag is called the Federal Diet in English but the page's name is still Bundestag. Gram panchayat is another example. SimulationWig (talk) 04:29, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not talking about moving Gaunpalika, its for the list. Every official websites using Rural Municipalities (see here for example) as their official name that's why I thought its better to use. Otherwise I'm ok with the name Gaunpalikas.--Nirmal Dulal (talk) 05:15, 26 December 2019 (UTC)

"Mai Jogmai" or "Mai Jogmai Rural Muncipality"
Giving only the first name for the Title of article indicates the location, but not the administrative function of the places. I think its better to use full name. eg. use "Mai Jogmai Rural Municipality" instead of "Mai Jogmai" for all administrative bodies.nirmal (talk) 02:16, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

Gaunpalika
I propose to add Gaunpalika word with all the rural municipality's name of Nepal. Currently some rural municipalities includes Rural Municipality with it's name and some are available without "Rural Municipality/Gaunpalika". For Example: Phalgunanda Rural Municipality and Khumbu Pasanglhamu.

Rural municipalities in Nepal are sub-units of district. It is very similar to Upazila of Bangladesh. These sub-units include an administrative town (headquarter) which can be of same name so I propose to add Gaunpalika with sub-unit.
 * , "Rural Municipality" is an established English translation of "Gaunpalika". So, I would oppose adding "Gaunpalika" to the name. I think this article too should be moved to List of rural municipalities of Nepal. I would support keeping all articles at "Foo Rural Municipality" which would be consistent with other administrative levels (Foo Province, Foo Zone, Foo District). Regards!

 * Ok, no problems. Add Gaunpalika or Rural municipality (any one, not both) to show diffrence between a rural municipality and a headquarter. A rural municipality is a large area including villages, jungle, towns etc and headquarter is a small town located in a ward of a rural municipality. -- 👤 Raju 💌 14:58, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Either you can go ahead and do it; "Rural Municipality", not Gaupalika. I don't expect any objections, but you never know. Someone else could come along and revert you now or in the long future, and it would help to have a consensus to show them. So, better would be, if you could start a proper move discussion to gather a broad consensus. Our agreement is likely not enough. Can you make a list of all the articles that would be affected and create an RM? If not, at least leave notes on some relevant WikiProjects so we get some additional input. Regards!

List of VDC's grouped to form each gaunpalika
How come there isn't a list of all the village development committee's (or VDCs) that group or form the current gaunpalikas of Nepal? jlog3000 (talk) 22:37, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Fixing URLs
@107.77.206.144 I see the URLs are broken. It looks like gov.np has changed its website, however I'm not sure the answer is to delete those columns enirely. Perhaps someone who speaks Nepali could update them  dizzy flamingo  (talk) 05:38, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
