The articles in this category clack consistency - we have:

  • Aird, Western Isles
  • Tong, Outer Hebrides
  • Tarbert, Isle of Harris
  • Borve (Isle of Barra)
  • Sandwick, Lewis

In an attempt to create some kind of consistency that's in line with use elsewhere (e.g. Category:Villages in Mull, Category:Villages in the Isle of Arran, Category:Villages in Orkney) I'm proposing that the names be:

Foo, Islename
with special dispensation for Lewis and Harris.

we would thus have:

  • Aird, Lewis
  • Tong, Lewis
  • Tarbert, Harris
  • Borve, Barra

One reason for attempting consistency - it is clear that Coll, Western Isles and Coll, Outer Hebrides are in fact both Coll, Lewis and need to be merged. Ben MacDui 18:35, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
