Towns from Sikkim#Towns[edit]

Star Guide Usable Outline Redlink
Article Status To do
Gangtok Outline This article is really pretty good and very close to Usable. The main change that's needed to make it Usable is listification of "See", but that will take a fair amount of work, as a bunch of entries with clear location and other info (opening hours, telephone number, etc.) have to be made. Also needs a city map and could use more attractive, well-chosen photos. This would be a good article to turn into a Guide and feature as a Destination of the Month or Off the Beaten Path, but for that, it would need thorough copy editing, thorough listification, a thorough check for up-to-dateness, with updating as needed, and probably some expansion of "Do".
Dzongu Outline This is a good and interesting article. I suppose what would make it Usable is geo, but it doesn't lack for information. It does completely lack images, though, including a pagebanner and map.
Geyzing Outline This is really an Outline, with very little content, indeed.
Mangan Outline Just a bit more info than Geyzing but not much.
Namchi Outline "See" is now listified. Most other sections are blank.
Pelling Usable This is a very substantive article. It needs more exact location info in listings, if possible, proofreading and probably some tweaking of its structure, and also a map (probably one of the area, given that some of the attractions in "See" are outside of town). Commons doesn't have many photos of Pelling and actually lacks a category for the town, but there are some photos to be found by using "Pelling, Sikkim" as a search term. Finally, I'm troubled by the first sentence of "Understand/Culture": "The local Limboo (indigenous) people are regarded by outsiders as being physically strong, openhearted and independent people." Should we be propagating stereotypes on this guide?
Ravangla Outline Substantive, though with some missing sections. The "See" section is excellent but could use Geo. The "Sleep" section is fairly usable, though most listings are just a name, location and phone number. Good work would be to fill in empty sections, put in more location info in listings and more information where needed, and add a map and pagebanner. And perhaps "Eat" should be turned into "Eat and Drink". Is "Get around" mostly by foot? Then the article should so specify.
Yuksom Outline This article is full of information, especially information about treks in "Do". It needs thorough copy editing and an area map. It will also probably need geo as well as listification (such as in "Eat") for promotion to Usable status.
