The result of the discussion was: rename. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 17:13, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose renaming
About 94 more categories
Nominator's rationale: Follows precedent of renaming similarly named categories. It's more consistent to use populated place to cover city, town, village, etc. –Aidan721 (talk) 15:52, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why populated, surely that’s a redundancy for a start. I think city or town is a useful disambiguation Kingbird1 (talk) 18:20, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
As put by The Grid in a prior linked discussion above: "We have the formal definition of a populated place from USGS: Cities, towns and other entities with human habitation are classified as populated places in the context of the BGN and GNIS." –Aidan721 (talk) 18:26, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Context is important here as it was pertaining to the United States. – The Grid (talk) 19:14, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Marcocapelle, Gidonb, Peterkingiron, Grutness, Gonnym, UnitedStatesian, and Fayenatic london: again, only those who are not banned and have not yet responded. Ping requires signature, so it didn't work the first time.
