[edit]

It would probably be more useful to list the squares by city. Lee M 01:58, 17 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

  • done. this addition recommends a table format. Badanedwa 05:34, May 18, 2004 (UTC)

Automation

[edit]

Hi guys, couldn't this list be automatically generated by means of the article category? --Gennaro Prota 00:42, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Prominent?

[edit]

Would be nice to know why a particular square is prominent. Otherwise it's just a list of squares that someone bothered to add. --Romanski 20:52, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Criteria

[edit]

Is probably impossible to set definite criteria for "prominent" but here an approach:

In the same time there should be excluded from the list city squares of only local significance, such as neighborhood squares. Elekhh (talk) 06:25, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Presumably squares should be located in cities too, rather than towns, despite the fact the Wikilink links to Town square? There are several towns listed at the moment! Also, in reference to significance (above), it would seem anything that is redlinked cannot be all that significant or notable. Sionk (talk) 18:46, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Particular listings

[edit]

I'm not sure why Sugar Land Town Square is listed. It's not a plaza or square - it's a privately owned shopping development. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.38.255.88 (talk) 21:24, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Format

[edit]

A large number of different formats have developed since the article was created in 2006. The original format of the article seemed to be

  • Somewhere Else, Another Place, St Elsewhere - Prague

As opposed to the alternative style which has crept in e.g.

  • Somewhere Else - Prague
  • Another Place - Prague
  • St Elsewhere - Prague

i.e. the original style was space saving, no need for a separate line for each square, even if there are a number of notable squares in the same city.
In my view it would be better to make the list style consistent. Any preferences for one style or the other? Sionk (talk) 21:24, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We also have lists ordered alphabetically by name of city, alphabetically by name of square, or completely randomly ordered! Sionk (talk) 22:04, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
