Requested move 31 August 2022

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Moved as proposed. BD2412 T 03:32, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

– List of populated places in Colorado (L–Z) was recently moved to List of populated places in Colorado/02, but use of backslashes for split lists is deprecated due to subpages not being allowed in mainspace. The parent list was never moved to a new name to reflect it is a partial list when the original split was made in 2021. These pages should be moved per the recommended format at WP:NCSPLITLIST. The base name can either be left as a redirect to the first list in the sequence (A–K) or can be made into a parent page linking to each, consistent with the guidance at Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Glossaries#Article_growth_and_splitting (see also some discussion on the issue).

Move: I concur. I can make these two moves if no one objects. Please close this request by September 6, 2022. Thank you, Buaidh talk e-mail 07:51, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:RMCI, the discussion must be closed and the moves performed by an uninvolved editor. Mdewman6 (talk) 21:41, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Adna

Buaidh, which source describes Adna as an unincorporated community? Its article was deleted in 2020 because it was thought to only be a rail siding, and Place names of Colorado labels it as a "station". I don't see it listed at List of post offices in Colorado either. Is there something that I'm missing? –dlthewave ☎ 15:28, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Dlthewave: Adna is a railroad crossing, but if you look at this topo map, there appears to be a small community surrounding it. Yours aye, Buaidh talk e-mail 19:00, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I do see a few dispersed buildings in the area, but you can't just point to the map and say "this is an unincorporated community called Adna" without reliable sourcing to support it. –dlthewave ☎ 19:05, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
