Out of date

23 new Departments have been created since 2005, making a total of 81. See existing ref http://www.statoids.com/yci.html. The article has not been updated to reflect this. Qwfp (talk) 17:37, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please update it! Thanks T L Miles (talk) 18:37, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Many of the articles on the individual Departments still say there are 58 of them though. Maybe a job for someone with AutoWikiBrowser. Qwfp (talk) 20:33, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

Divo, Côte d'Ivoire → Divo Department — Dab between towns/cities and departments. Applies to all in Category:Departments of Côte d'Ivoire. See Category:Departments by country Niger, Senegal, Burkina Faso do the same. All outside Africa except France use X Department too.

It seems that the articles are at least 60% about the town rather than the department. How about a split? — AjaxSmack 00:50, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Support splitting. Schwyz (talk) 18:04, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Is there really a purpose to each of those articles that this page links to about all the departments? Clicking them brings you to a one sentence article that usually reiterates what you could have gotten from this page alone, at least from what I've seen. Either we need to expand pretty much all the articles this links to, or get rid of them. I assume expanding would be the preferred choice. Any input? --Thekmc (talk) 18:05, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Request to update new departments since 2011

I have a request to suggest. May someone update the new departments since the 2011 re-organization? From some sources that I heard of or found, the total number of departments is actually 95, while others think the total is 104. jlog3000 (talk) 14:57, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
