Kłodzko

I wrote virtually all the text myself, thus input from others is particularly important. I think it is factually accurate and fairly complete. I think it would make a great featured article. I appreciate any comments and/or corrections. Halibutt 09:34, Apr 15, 2005 (UTC)

Good history, but has several problems. 1) While history is extensive, there is almost nothing aboout the city today - its economy, municipal government, etc. Tourist attraction are a good start, but could surely use expantion. 2) no references. If external links were used as referecnes, format them accordingly - see Wikipedia:References. 3) try to avoid external links in the text, in cases of sources and such I recommend using Wikipedia:Footnotes. Do take a look at current cities FAs and see what do they have that Klodzko doesn't: Johannesburg, Marshall, Texas, Marshall, Texas, Sarajevo, Seattle, Washington. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 10:06, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

1. Agreed. I'm starting right away
2. You mean Wikipedia:Cite sources, right? Wikipedia:References doesn't say much.

Yes, my mistake.

1. Will do (I guess you mean the source for the pop table, right?)

Yes.

1. As to other FArticles, the basic difference I see is the length (which is a big disatvantage, since AFAICT the FA is often visited by the dividers club) and the number of pics. Any other major differences?

We will worry abour length when we have to. The article is not too short (for History of Klodzko :>). With economy etc. I'd expect it to double in size, but I doubt it would became a target for dividers even then. Pics, of course, will always be useful - the more the better. Say, Halibutt - I wonder - why Klodzko? :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 09:48, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)

The history section should be shortened and detail moved to a main article. As pointed above, there isn't much to say on the city. Since this is a small town of 30k inhabitants, I would put you on to Kalimpong, a town which is currently on FAC for some ideas. More references are also needed.  =Nichalp (talk · contribs)= 20:40, Apr 17, 2005 (UTC)

These are some things that I think could be included to make the article more about the city now:

1. Administration (government), what the important political issued in the town;
2. Ecomomy, the article says its an important commerce centre but that's about all;
3. Transport (highways and railways passing through here), perhaps a more detailed map of the location with respect to highways and other local towns;
4. Demographics, the historical population chart is a good start, I'd consider turning it into a graph, add any other statistical information that you can get your hands on that helps describe the town;
5. Tourist attractions, add some more pictures here if you have some, and are there any local festivals that you could add here?
