[edit] cities?

Would it be reasonable for me add the specific city after each golf course? --MatthewUND(talk) 01:09, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I think that'd make it easier to transfer between the two. --AlexWCovington (talk) 01:36, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
That's what I was thinking. That way, when we merge some golf courses into their city articles, we can just remove the wikilink from the golf course itself. --MatthewUND(talk) 02:18, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Articles to merge

Since we are trying to figure out which courses should be merged with their city articles and which should get to keep their own articles, I've come up with a list of courses that I think should be merged with their city articles. I'm sure we could find other courses that should be merged too, but this would at least be a start. Let me know what you think about merging the following courses:

  • Edgewater Country Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Ellendale Country Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Fair Oakes Golf Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Harvey Country Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Hettinger Country Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Hillcrest Country Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • LaMoure Memorial Golf Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Memorial Park Country Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Napoleon Country Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Star City Golf Course (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Tioga Golf and Country Club (9 hole) (MERGED)
  • Watford City Golf Club (9 hole) (MERGED)

As you can see, all of these courses are 9 holes and I don't think any are particularly notable or unusual. Any opinions? --MatthewUND(talk) 23:34, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

OTOH, as a list, red links could be added for others not yet on this list, with the red link removed after it is mentioned in the article for the town or created as a separate article. For example, you could incorporate all of them listed on the ND Tourism site at http://www.ndtourism.com/secondary/viewArticle.asp?ID=104 many of which are not in the list now.

I have now merged all of the articles that I mentioned in the above list. There may be some more courses that we could merge with the respective city article. I believe there are only six remaining articles for nine-hole courses. It seems to me that we should be able to keep any articles relating to 18-hole courses for the time being, but we should look critically at articles about 9-hole courses. --MatthewUND(talk) 10:12, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
