Wikipedia:WikiProject Swedish municipalities

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This WikiProject is an attempt to formulate a common template for the Swedish municipalities. It suggests a structure for the municipality articles which would make them more structured, while also giving them a common look and feel.

[edit] Title

WikiProject Swedish municipalities

[edit] Scope

This WikiProject aims to structure the articles for the 290 municipalities of Sweden.

[edit] Parentage

The parent of this WikiProject is the WikiProject Swedish counties

[edit] Descendant WikiProjects

The descendant WikiProject is WikiProject Swedish cities.

[edit] Similar WikiProjects

Similar WikiProjects are Wikipedia:WikiProject Cities.

[edit] Participants

[edit] Coordination

The effort should be coordinated with the Swedish Wikipedia.

[edit] Structure

The article should start with an introduction, giving the name of the municipality its location in Sweden, bordering municipalities, seas or lakes and such.

Next, there is a table with quick facts about the municipality. A template for the table can be found at the bottom of this page. The contents are as follows:

  • The official name of the municipality in Swedish (xx) is to go on top as the caption.
  • A picture of the municipality coat of arms.
  • Municipal seat: The seat of residence for the municipal administration and main agglomeration ("Centralort"). In most cases it has also given the name of the municipality.
  • County: The county to which the municipality belongs.
  • Area: The area of the county in square km (km²) and the ranking.
  • Population: The number of inhabitants, the ranking and the population density. Also include a year for the census. (Statistics available at the National Atlas of Sweden are given for 1999.)


The sections are:

  • Politics
    • Municipal Council
    • Election results
  • Geography
    • Cities, towns and villages
    • Boroughs (stadsdelar), where applicable
    • Parishes
    • Political history of the municipality
    • Sites of interest
  • Economy
    • Major industries/products
    • taxes
  • Education
  • Heraldry
    • Short description
    • Blazon
    • Link to county of province heraldry
  • Miscellaneous topics
  • External links

[edit] Template

When applying this template to a county stub or article (which already all exist), it should be common practice to create a temporary page to work on, with the following notice:

''This temporary page is being used to expand and convert the article [[_]] over to the new format proposed at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Swedish counties|WikiProject Swedish counties]]. Please feel free to add or edit anything on this page to help in the conversion process.''

Don't forget to replace the "_" with the name of the article being converted.

To notify readers/writers that a new page is being created, place the following text on the country article itself:

'''A new page based on the new [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Swedish counties|template]] is being worked on at [[_/Temp]], please make any changes you want to make on that page.'''

Xx Municipality (Xx kommun) is a municipality in Zz county, direction Sweden.

[edit] Separations

I have been here since some time now. My main task is to separate centralorter (seats), which still are in the entries on the respective Municipality. I also try to write a short section about the amalgamations. --Muniswede 22:06, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

This has now been done. Only "Infobox_kommun2" is now in use for municipalities. --Muniswede 08:47, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
Ok, I have deleted kommun3 & kommun4, and turned kommun into a redirect.
Fred-J 18:24, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! Some municipalities have no infoboxes at all. So there will still be something to do. --Muniswede 22:25, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
