Header needs work

The first paragraph seems to provide an adequate brief history, but I'm not sure the last sentence regarding American writers dominating cultural geography is necessary. The second paragraph has a few spelling and grammatical errors. I think there should be more detail on how Sauers work was surpassed. The sentence pays his work two compliments with "qualitative" and "descriptive" but then just simple states that his work was surpassed. "Cultural Geography was generally sidelined" also seems a bit vague. BustosA (talk)

Needs fixin'

When will this page be rewritten? It could use better structure and clarity of key concepts.

You could also reference Yi-Fu Tuan. Many credit him in the development of cultural geography.--Big Adamsky 14:08, 20 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Erroneous Swedish interwiki link - need help

I'm trying to correct the Swedish interwiki links for Cultural geography and Human geography, but I'm not used to the centralized interwiki handling. Can someone help me?

In short: Cultural geography should link to sv:Kulturens geografi and Human geography should link to sv:Kulturgeografi, not the other way round. The system won't allow me to correct the links or remove them. /213.113.127.161 (talk) 09:45, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

I propose to merge Cultural mapping and Cultural geography. To merge these two seems obvious. To me it seems "Cultural mapping" would go as a section of "Cultural geography". ~ R.T.G 14:16, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I expect you meant Cultural mapping. An a non-expert, it seems like a reasonable merge. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 19:28, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. Wug·a·po·des 20:50, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose. I'm about to board a flight, so I'll look more closely later, but they seem like distinct but related topics. I think a section with {{main}} and a WP:SUMMARYSTYLE overview of cultural mapping in cultural geography would be warranted though. Wug·a·po·des 20:54, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. just as mapping stands alone and has not been subsumed into geography, just so cultural mapping ought stand alone as it is more mapping than geography, being a kind of mapping that has arisen out of increasing gis capacities and possibilities .. though the article itself looks in need of expanding likely drawing on references from the whole gis field? Bruceanthro (talk) 08:09, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Closing, given the uncontested objections. Klbrain (talk) 10:57, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
