Talk:Jericho (disambiguation)

Places as opposed to United States?

Why is Jericho in the United States not included in Jericho in places? The United States is still made up of places. Is there a reason for the separation? George C 17:23, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A change has been made, but it still doesn't answer my question as to why the USA deserves to be separated from the rest of the world in a list of places. George C 16:42, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Off-hand, I'd guess it is to avoid listing "United States" repeatedly. The other nations only have one "Jericho" each. --Ckatz^chat _spy 17:11, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Walls of Jericho

Fair to midland has released a song named "Walls of Jericho". Should it be added to the list? 85.5.151.209 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 13:03, 1 January 2011 (UTC).[reply]

No. See WP:DABNOT

Removed entries

[Friendlier formatting is pending]
The following are removed per WP:DabRL, which discusses what needs to happen for a Dab entry to be made out of them.
But note that the notation, under US, reading

these cities do not yet have articles, or do not have enough other articles linking to them.

misstates the principle cited above. There must one link to the missing article, and there must also be another articles with, as i would put it, enuf info about the topic (the place, in this case) to make it worth a user following the link to read that info. (In the case of Lambton Shores, IMO the mere mention of Jericho, Ontario in a list is suitable to a hierarchical table of provinces and their hierarchies of subdivisions, but does not amount to information worth consulting an encyclopedia to get: if that suffices for the user's need, they shouldn't waste their time navigating an encyclopedia to get it.)

The following were in some cases caught bcz of lack of an article, but they also are not contenders for the title "Jericho": even if no other topic belonged at that title, it would not be a suitable title for an article covering any of these topics. E.g., no one should expect to find an article on the Jericho Forest of Trail or Jericho Plain with the title "Jericho"

Australia

- Jericho Forest of Trail

United States

Jericho Mountain State Park, in Berlin, New Hampshire

West Bank

Jericho Plain, a clivi war of the West Bank
Jericho Civil War
