Wikipedia:WikiProject Prussia/Kreise

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Scope

This subsection of WikiProject Prussia is a collaboration to define a structure for articles about the various Prussian districts (Kreise) over time, providing consistancy between all the articles, and a standard connection to the parent and descendant articles.

This subsection was formerly known as WikiProject Prussian Kreise.

[edit] Example page

The designated example is: Kreis Kolmar

[edit] Structure

The article should start with a good introduction, giving name of the Kreise, location in the Prussian province and in Europe in general, bordering Kreise, provinces, seas and the like. Try to briefly describe the character of the Kreis that distinguished it from the other Kreise.

• History - A brief outline of the major events in the Kreise's history, focussing on that which is pertinent to the Kreis. Only provide enough material on events, that happened in a sphere of which the Kreis was only a part, to show how they affected the Kreis, and go into detail only on aspects that pertain to the Kreis.

• Geography - Quick description of the Kreis's main features, climate, etc.

• (Subdivisions) - Overview of the administrative subdivisions of the country (i.e. Standesamter) Provide a table of the Standesamter, as well as a table of the communities.

• Statistics - area, population, etc.

• Miscellaneous topics - if any.
  • Agriculture
  • Resources
  • Industries/Products
  • Transportation

• External links - if any.

[edit] Navbar

A navbar for the province of Posen has already been made {{NavPosenDistricts}}

Kingdom	Prussia
Province	(other provinces)	Posen		(other provinces)
Regierungsbezirk		Bromberg district	Posen district
Kreis		City of Bromberg Bromberg Czarnikau Filehne Gnesen Hohensalza Kolmar Mogilno Schubin Strelno Wirsitz Witkowo Wongrowitz Znin	City of Posen Adelnau Birnbaum Bomst Fraustadt Gostyn Grätz Jarotschin Kempen Koschmin Kosten Krotoschin Lissa Meseritz Neutomischel Obornik Ostrowo Pleschen Posen Ost Posen West Rawitsch Samter Schildberg Schmiegel Schrimm Schroda Schwerin Wreschen
Standesamt	(see Kreis articles for links to Standesämter)
Community	(see Standesämter articles for links to communities)				edit

But after some attempts with other provinces, this format does not appear to work. Here is a new attempt at the Posen navbar

The reasons for the changes become clear when you see the amount of information required for the Rhine Province

These navbars are still under development

[edit] Status of Kreise entries

Still under construction.
