:Looks good. [http://www.awrpc.org/ Here] is a html version of the map without the extra MPO lines. '''Support''' --[[User:Qetuth|Qetuth]] ([[User talk:Qetuth|talk]]) 07:34, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

::After further thought, it's really OR to declare a South Central region ourselves, and a quick search shows several organisations use "South Central Wisconsin" - none appear to match the 6 counties listed. It might be better to leave those 5 spare counties upmerged to the main category until they can have their own category? (So support all except SCW, undecided about it) --[[User:Qetuth|Qetuth]] ([[User talk:Qetuth|talk]]) 01:43, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

:::I '''oppose''' these intermediate subdivisions of the state. There is no standard county regional groupings in Wisconsin for the counties Wisconsin - making this method POV or possibly even OR. For example, east central Wisconsin almost always includes Manitowoc and Sheboygan counties. Sheboygan county is often added to the southeastern Wisconsin grouping too. The standard method for organizing lists of counties in Wisconsin (on Wikipedia) is to list all 72 counties right under the state category and sort by county name. 72 is not too high of a number to look through so why promote someone's non-standard subdivision method? WikiProject Wisconsin has not be alerted to any subdivisions of the Wisconsin-geo-stub template so I have notified them.

::::You're absolutely right that 72 is not a large number to look through. The problem is the over 1600 articles in the parent category -- more than double the size we strive for. And I will also agree that I have not seen a consistent division of the state, even amongst the various governmental bodies. I was just trying to find some kind of division to make this category more manageable. I will leave the discussion open for now for others to weigh in.

:::I agree with Royalbroil-there is no intermediate subdivisions in Wisconsin. This should be taken to the WikiProject Wisconsin discussion page. Thank you-[[User:RFD|RFD]] ([[User talk:RFD|talk]]) 01:46, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
