Talk:Říp
Article or not?
[edit]- Swept in from the pub
Hello, I thought it is better to askː I would like to write an article about Říp, an solitary hill forming a tiny nature reserve around it. The hill is a popular tourist destination, but there is nowhere to sleep in the nature reserve area. There are however some villages around it that provide lodging. The question isː Write it as an article for itself, write an article for some of the villages or include it in the nearest town (which is not very near)? I would prefer the first option (as the hill is really important thing in the region), but I am not sure whether that copes with Policies enough. Heisy Bordel (talk) 12:43, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
- Could the information about the place fit into a paragraph? If so, could it fit into a listing in the region article? --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 13:49, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
- Říp is listed in North Bohemia, alongside Prachov Rocks and Panská skála. So it sounds like it merits a similar "park" article: it's a focal point, not just for the locality, but for the Czech national identity.
Though Prachov Rocks are listed under "North", the WV hierarchy puts them in "East". I'll amend that if you can confirm that East is not correct. Grahamsands (talk) 13:56, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
- Yes. Surrounding villages are often included in "park" articles, as a whole the park and surrounding villages pass the sleep test, and there is no reason to limit the park article along the formal boundaries. If you can write a decent article that way, it sounds like the way to go. --LPfi (talk) 14:42, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
- Ok, thank you for your options, I will do a park article as I can fill more than one paragraph with information about Říp. Prachov Rocks were indeed listed incorrectly, although these are actually in East Bohemia (I have fixed the listing) Heisy Bordel (talk) 15:14, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

- Park would work, and include accommodation in nearby towns and villages, or is information not too large make it a listing in an article about w:Roudnice nad Labem. --Traveler100 (talk) 16:54, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
