The result of the debate was rename

Unproposed, but seems a perfectly reasonable addition to the other provincial splits for South Africa that seems to have been missed when we split the others. May need upmerging if it doesn't get to 60 stubs, but it will be close to it at least. The major problem with it is that the province isn't "North West Province", it's "North West", and all categories and articles relating to it seem to be in the process of being moved accordingly. There's also a Northwest Province in Cameroun, which would cause further possible confusion. As such, this should probably be at NorthWestZA-geo-stub and either or, dependent upon whatever final name the permcat gets. Rename. Grutness...wha?  00:29, 4 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Rename – I'll be adding the other North West cities and towns and it will easily reach 60 uses. Just discovered WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, will follow it next time I need to create a stub template. --NJR_ZA (talk) 01:48, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Cheers - as someone working "on the ground" with SA articles, which do you think would be the better name for the category? Grutness...wha?  05:50, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I think North West (South Africa) will do. Adding province will probably be redundant as the term is only used in the sense of province. When referring to the geographic north west of the country, people generally use Northern Cape --NJR_ZA (talk) 09:05, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
