Category:Settlements in Nova Scotia[edit]

Category:Settlements in Nova Scotia is redundant with Category:Populated places in Nova Scotia. The same for Category:Settlements in Saskatchewan (vs Category:Populated places in Saskatchewan. Settlements doesn't follow category tree or offer anything better than populated places Themightyquill (talk) 13:51, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I created these, and I agree. I see no need to discuss: we can just go ahead and merge. This category list shows many other populated categories beginning with "settlements". Should those be changed as well? --Auntof6 (talk) 18:03, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Auntof6: I think it's best to handle them in smaller groups. "Settlement" might have specific meanings in some cases, making it different from "populated places." But I'll take a look and try to move the ones that are obviously redundant, and nominate others. - Themightyquill (talk) 15:16, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support yes settlements and populated places means the same thing, for some reason we used "populated places" rather than "human settlements" despite the title of the main Wikipedia article. Crouch, Swale (talk) 10:27, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No opposition. Moved per nomination. -- Themightyquill (talk) 15:57, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
