Structure of the article

I propose to model this article about a province to another articles about states and provinces in Wikipedia (e.g. British Columbia, Queensland, and Virginia). BTW I wonder whether there will be some kind of template about this ... Anywaya, the topics dealt which will be dealt with are roughly:

  1. Geography
    1. Administrative division
  2. History
  3. Demographics
  4. Culture and language
  5. Politics
  6. Economy
  7. Transportation
  8. Nature (Wildlife, national parks etc)
  9. Tourism and recreation
  10. Symbols of the province
  11. Education
  12. Trivia
  13. See also

Well what do you think? Meursault2004 10:36, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good, but from my experience, 'History' seems to come first in geographic articles, although perhaps that is different for province/state articles. Also, we really don't want 'trivia'. If something is trivial, it doesn't belong in an encyclopedia. If it is not trivial, ie, notable, we can fit it into one of the other sections. :). Merbabu 10:39, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK let's remove the trivia section. Yes I think it is different for province/state articles. As for countries, history indeed comes first before geography. But we can always move the sections later as long as we can set up a basic structure. Meursault2004 10:57, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, sounds reasonable re geog sec first.Merbabu 11:17, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
