Talk:List of tourist attractions in Wales

Towns
The towns section could do with some additions of the most popular towns to visit in Wales. Thanks!Titus Gold (talk) 22:51, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Inclusion Criteria
The top 10 paid and free attractions are reliably sourced and meet WP:LISTN without any difficulty, but the list of attractions by settlement seems a bit more indiscriminate, as does the list of independent attractions. Having said that, I find it odd (but can't argue with the numbers) that Oakwood isn't in the top 10 paid. I think the problem here, however, is that there are huge numbers of tourist attractions, and a list that simply invites editors to add their favourites is indiscriminate. Is there a longer list of paid and free attractions we could appeal to? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 09:10, 27 July 2023 (UTC)


 * It's bordering on 'indiscriminate' and not very helpful, I agree. Tourists could visit anywhere ...except perhaps Cwmbran ;) I'd say we should have some sort of independent proof of the 'attractiveness' to tourists, at the very least, other than sources like the Visit Wales website (which is promotional). It may even be a case of BLOWITUP if there are no other precedents for indiscriminate lists like this. Sionk (talk) 11:17, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
 * In terms of precedent, this list does seem to be a combination of what other lists at Lists of tourist attractions do, them usually having one overall criteria. I believe a focus on the "top attractions" could warrant this list like List of tourist attractions in Denmark, while the other sections could be merged into their specific articles or as in Lists of tourist attractions converted into localised lists like List of tourist attractions in Cardiff etc, if deemed worthy, but I am getting ahead of myself. So if there is a larger list of attractions in Wales somewhere, fine replacing this article with just that.
 * Although note List of tourist attractions in Ireland, List of tourist attractions in Taiwan and List of South Korean tourist attractions seem to be listing every attraction with an article, so that is another criteria too. While List of tourist attractions in the United Arab Emirates lists them by area, but as one article not a clear precedent.
 * It could be like Lists of tourist attractions in England at a later date and be converted into a list of lists, when such lists are made. I'll try to see if a larger top attractions list can be found, but no guarantee.  Dank Jae  01:13, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
