Talk:New Ireland and Manus

Need for this article

Is there a need for this article, or can New Ireland and Manus be directly categorised under Papua New Guinea. The amount of content in this article is minimal, and it only contains two articles beneath it (more like one, since no-one visits Manus for travel purposes). --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 08:49, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

That would put Maus and its single destination article in the country articl Would it be better to preserve this article as a region, and merge New Ireland and Manus in here? Ground Zero (talk) 03:54, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

@Ground Zero: Sorry for coming to this a little late (completely forgot about it), but yes, that's my intention. Manus and New Ireland don't have any connection with each other so it makes logistically little sense to group them together. Although it might seem unusual to breadcrumb Manus, a rural area article, under PNG, a) it's a province and b) no one visits Manus anyway for travel purposes. Kinda like how Canberra is breadcrumbed directly under Australia or Wood Buffalo National Park under Canada. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 09:37, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Okay. Since no-one else has an opinion, you should go ahead as you proposed. Ground Zero (talk) 12:42, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, I'll do this later today (Jan 4). --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 13:51, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

@Ground Zero: Done – no salvageable content, tho :-(. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 08:06, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
