The page has now been created, but there are a number of things to consider:

• The list, and the category villages in Norway, might need regrouping by county if they get too large.
• Creation of redlinked articles would be greatly appreciated.

[edit] Definition of village

What is the definition of village as used as a criteria for places on this list? The Norwegian word for village is landsby, and this term is not used for places in Norway. I submit that it is not correct to use the term village for places in Norway. Dubidub 10:07, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

In this context village means tettsted. See Category:Villages in Norway and a lengthy discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Norway. Punkmorten 11:15, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
