Talk:List of local governments in the United Kingdom

Consolidation
Recently there has been some consolidation of these articles. Are there any more that we feel should be combined or amended in some way? MRSC • Talk 11:48, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi there! I tried to make some changes because I when I first looked at an item about 'local government in the United Kingdom', I discovered it was basically an article about local government in England. I like the way that a search for 'local government in the United Kingdom' now leads to four options for further details about the four constituent countries. I feel a similar approach should be applied to other issues - like for example, education in the United Kingdom, where system are different in different parts of the UK. I haven't looked further into the idea of consolidating other local government articles yet - when I get a chance, I'll post another comment.

Me again! - I've had a look and it appears that the information in 'Subdivisions of Scotland' could be added to 'local government in Scotland'. Cheers Fishiehelper2 (talk) 15:45, 30 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I was wondering about such a merge myself (and for Local government in England with Subdivisions of England) but what I did in the end for England was to amend the "local government in..." article to deal with functions, structure etc. and use the "subdivisions of" for a list of the actual subdivisions. Perhaps the same could work for Scotland? MRSC • Talk 19:13, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
