Talk:Portal:Miscellaneous Places

This is getting pretty big. We can maybe split off the Airport, Subway, Subway, and Parking Garage as "Transportation" or something.--Hardvice (talk) 02:23, 19 February 2007 (EST)

• Sounds right to me. Even the harbor could go there if needed, but it's not necessary. The museum could be shipped over to Education & Research as well. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 08:29, 19 February 2007 (EST)

Resplit

It's getting unwieldy again. could we possibly split off the New York (state) Misc places into a new portal to keep this small-ish?--SacValleyDweller 17:04, 21 October 2007 (EDT)

• Perhaps. Grouping the Texas articles and New York state articles, that would reduce the page to ten, which is much better than 24.--Bob (talk) 17:19, 21 October 2007 (EDT)
  • Hmm. It seems a little weird to suddenly start splitting geographically when all the other splits are by purpose. Is there any other split we can consider?--Hardvice (talk) 18:35, 21 October 2007 (EDT)
    • Two possibilities come to mind: Medical places, Politcal places. Others can conceivably go elsewhere: the locker room can go on Education (P.E. is a class, too, you know), the gravel plant and the warehouse could be businesses, etc. I'd hate to suddenly switch horses midstream just because a page is long. In fact, if we're determined to keep these all as "miscellaneous" places, I'd just as soon just split them alphabetically into subpages rather than split them geographically.--Hardvice (talk) 18:39, 21 October 2007 (EDT)
      • Agree, I'm not a fan of splitting by location. It's a good idea, it just doesn't fit with the way we've split other portals. If we split by purpose, I'm seeing that we have three hospitals. There are three offices. I can see more hospitals being added (Angela's comes to mind) and more offices (Linderman's has never been added). There are only two political places, unless you count Nathan's office. I can't see too many more being added, but I might be wrong. Incidentally, there are two hotel rooms; we could combine those with Corinthian, Montecito, and Littlefield to make Portal:Hotels.

        Anyway, if we split hospitals (or just make it more general and say "Medical Places"), offices, and hotels, that leaves us 16 miscellaneous places, and 10 businesses.
