District change

[edit]

There's a district redlink and a lot of outline districts in this huge city. This is my proposal for the districts; if someone knows the city, your opinion is welcome.

  • Bay Area = West
  • Kita + Minami + Osaka Castle = Centre
  • Tennoji + South = South
  • Remove the "East" district since it redlinks

What do you think? We would need to change the static map. --Comment by Selfie City (talk about my contributions) 14:25, 4 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Good proposal. I would include East in Centre - there may be listings for the East some day. What happens to North? Ground Zero (talk) 15:35, 4 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
I don't think North District needs to be changed. --Comment by Selfie City (talk about my contributions) 16:42, 15 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
Weak objection. As the lead section mentions, Osaka had developed Manchester-ish character, actually since late 16th century to produce katana swords for clans battling to top others. I will try and find those then sword-smith, who attract increasing tourists fishing for good kitchen knives in East Osaka. Both tourists and natives would be puzzled to find East included in Central Osaka, I am afraid, or try to picture mingling Manchester with Liverpool or York, or San Pedro with downtown LA.

This article is still on a list of articles with active district discussions. Were the discussions resolved, or is there still something to decide? Also, off-topic in this thread, but is it important to keep the extensive Japanese text on this talk page after all these years, or could it be deleted or at least archived? Most of us can't read it, and it looks like it was based on an intemperate overreaction to language that was not ill-intended. Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:10, 24 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Dynamic map

[edit]

Can we eliminate it, please? The preference in districted cities is to have a static map. If any of the numbered points on the dynamic map need to be moved to the static map, would someone who knows how please do it? Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:03, 8 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

I agree with eliminating it. Looking at the points on the map, Itami Airport is already marked and the others are "Do" listings that have not been moved into districts, so I don't think they need to be put on the static map. ChubbyWimbus (talk) 14:09, 8 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
Great. Any objections to simply removing the dynamic map? Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:43, 8 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
No objection, so I will delete it. It can always be restored if someone offers a convincing reason for doing so. Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:57, 10 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Get In

[edit]

I will soon work on updating the fares and travel details for this section as a consequence of the October consumption tax hike. We've added lots of important information here over the years. I'm wondering if the section should be condensed/reduced a little bit. Any thoughts are welcome. JRHorse (talk) 13:21, 28 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
