[edit] Old version

L'viv Region
Name in Ukrainian: Львів
Capital	L'viv
Established	4 December 1939
Population  - Total  - Density  - Urban	2,610,000 120/km² > 61%
Area	21,800 km²
Districts	20
Cities	44
Towns	34
Villages	1,850

This is what the infoboxes looked like before we got started.

[edit] Proposal

I wikified the code, simplified the formatting, and added User:Steschke's new location map. Also updated the stats for 2004. How does this look?

Does anyone have a better understanding of the minor administrative units?

• What is an "urban-type locality"? Is it a town? = de:Siedlung städtischen Typs
• What does "total" include? It's obviously more than the raions, cities, city districts, "urban-type localities", and villages put together.

We discuss this at Elya's page for the german version --Steschke 10:19, 2004 Nov 3 (UTC)

The current proposal has been implemented. See below, or on the oblast' pages.

[edit] Compiled infobox stats

List of all the raw stats is archived at /Infobox stats

The area, demographics, and settlements for 2004 come from ukrstat.gov.ua. Still needed:

[edit] Infoboxes

I've added the infoboxes to all the articles. The examples on this page are already out-of-date, since I corrected a few typos when I added them, and removed empty data lines from the box for misto Kyiv. —Michael Z. 01:38, 2004 Nov 2 (UTC)

Update: the infoboxes on this page are now up-to-date. —Michael Z. 01:06, 2004 Nov 3 (UTC)

STOP! I just realized I screwed up when I transcribed the data for the infoboxes. In my converted copy of the original MS Word file, I thought a separate data column was just a note. I'll fix this in the next few hours, and compile the updated data here. —Michael Z. 00:24, 2004 Nov 3 (UTC)

Go! I've corrected the data. In the list of localities, the third figure has been removed (it represented "Cities, including with national, republican and oblast status", and not "city districts"), and the totals line has been removed. All the headings now apply to the correct figures. Sorry for the confusion.

The oblast articles in Wikipedia haven't been updated yet; I'll do that later tonight. —Michael Z. 01:04, 2004 Nov 3 (UTC) Update: It's all fixed now.

Here are more up-to-date data for the population (04-05-01) --Steschke 11:12, 2004 Nov 4 (UTC)
