[edit] Restructure article

There's a discussion to have the Listing parameter in {{Infobox Mountain}} point to this article (see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mountains#Lists in Infobox). Pursuant to this discussion, I'm planning to restructure this article to only include notable lists of mountains (i.e., lists that can be documented with reliable sources). I'm planning on moving most of the current lists on this page to Category:Lists of mountains or subcats: no information will be lost. Thanks! hike395 11:38, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Split out US content?

Do we think the time has arrived to create a Hill lists in the United States article in the same way that there is a Hill lists in the British Isles article? That way, we could restrict this list to just the most notable lists as we do with the British list, and use an article to provide slightly longer descriptions (a whole paragraph, rather than a sentence). — ras52 (talk) 18:42, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

I think the article is fine so far: I don't find the USian list of peaks to be too long. If we do decide to split, I would recommend naming the article Lists of U.S. mountains: the concept of "Hill List" seems to be local to the British Isles. hike395 (talk) 07:33, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
