- Most of the pages about the Zones of Nepal require to be re-written as a number of them fail to establish any context with the Zones of Nepal. Zones of Nepal are geographical units consisting of one or more districts, and each Zone belong to a particular developmental regions (sometimes called divisions). According and the particular pages relating to them require to be accordingly up-dated. Further, as some of these Zones derive their names from major rivers/ geographical regions of the area, a simple name like Kosi takes one to a river; same is the case with Bagmati. As such, the particular Zone should have a particular name. Further comments are invited. --Bhadani 11:30, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
- To begin with, I propose to create stubs for all the zones of Nepal. The page shall be named as Bagamati zone, Bheri zone and so on. If required, suitable disambiguation page will also have to be created – for example, Bagmati is a Zone of Nepal, and the name of a river. This applies to several other geographical locations/names in Nepal, as also in most part of the world. --Bhadani 08:53, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Better maps
There are maps of the anchals (zones), but they show no detail except political boundaries. It would be a Good Thing if they showed roads, rivers, settlements, and major peaks and ridges. Anyone out there with GIS and the necessary data?

YES if found a source of GIS map of different districts of Nepal. You can find it here: http://www.digitalhimalaya.com/collections/nepalmaps/ I'm thinking to get the maps and put it in Wikipedia but I'm worried about the copyright of the contents. Aaniyo 08:10, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
