Major settlements

[edit]

Is there any way to change the name of the "major settlements" box? It implies that the towns in the county are the most notable settlements, which is not the case. For example, Southwater and Lancing are both significantly more populous and arguably more significant than Steyning or Arundel for example, and places like Storrington or Midhurst are surely similarly significant. Could I suggest perhaps a removal of the smaller towns or a change of the section name to "towns" to more accurately represent the information, or even a section of settlements over a certain population? I feel the term "major settlements" is rather misleading. 80.229.16.243 (talk) 22:45, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Major settlements" is common to all county templates. I have applied inclusion criteria to the list of settlements, which means that all settlements with >10k population are included, and all towns even if <10k population. Bazonka (talk) 21:12, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Bazonka, what on earth happened to your comment on the talk page of the Minkie islands? 2A00:23C7:2B13:9001:E84E:1C88:9825:9184 (talk) 16:42, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What do you mean? And what has it got to do with West Sussex? It may be best to take this discussion to my talk page. Bazonka (talk) 10:07, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
