Split
[edit]Since there are three very different uses is there any opposition to splitting each use out into an article and leaving a dab page here? Vegaswikian (talk) 01:02, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
- I agree with that, having just stumbled on this page as I was writing a new article about a village I once lived in (no links as it is in my user space, very much in its infancy).
- If the illustrations are to be believed, the US village halls are totally out of proportion to what we would call then in the UK, which would probably be nearer to a town hall. Even the UK example is larger than most. I fear that these have been photographed exactly because they are (relatively) grand, and thus do not offer representative examples. There is of course nothing wrong with the illustrations themselves, except the do not illustrate that a village hall is generally quite a humble building. SimonTrew (talk) 19:55, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks. I leave as is then and wait to see what your article covers. Then we can create the dab page based on that. In the US, the difference between the town hall and a village hall is basically the name based on how the community is incorporated. The name is not indicative of the size of the community and the laws that govern naming vary by state. Vegaswikian (talk) 22:32, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
