Talk:Municipalities of the Netherlands

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Dutch municipalities.


For the record:

In Oct 2002 User:Jheijmans (see [1]) used a bot to create most municipality articles (namely all that did not exist yet), with info from http://www.sdu.nl/staatscourant/scdata/gemeentenindex.htm , including lists of settlements.

I added the lists of settlements for the skipped municipalities. Patrick 14:57, 18 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Would, please, some Dutchman or Dutchwoman add sth about the powers, duties and functions of Dutch municipalities? It'd be interesting to know what their responsibilities are.

[edit] A Dutch village with the border going across it in a curious shape

Can anyone tell me the name of the village (or city) where the border goes across the village in a curious shape, going across even a house? Once I found a webpage about it, I remember seeing the map itself, but I can't find it now. I wanted to insert its article into Wikipedia:Unusual articles. Thank you. -- Adam78 23:47, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Standardization of the lists of municipalities

There is a discussion about an eventual standardization of all the lists of municipalities. Please join here and express your opinions.--Húsönd 19:55, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
