Comment It looks like you recently moved File:Flag of Pee Pee Township, Ohio.svg from this category to Category:Flags of municipalities in Ohio. Note that, in Ohio, cities and villages are municipalities, but townships are not. If it's a problem that only one file was in the township category, I'd prefer that we merge the two categories into something more inclusively named, like Category:Flags of cities, villages, and townships in Ohio. – Minh Nguyễn 💬 05:48, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
- Your suggestion makes sense to me, Mxn. I notice, however, that the parent category is Category:Flags of cities, towns and villages in the United States. Can't we use Category:Flags of cities, towns and villages in Ohio? Surely "towns" includes townships, no? - Themightyquill (talk) 06:24, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
- @Themightyquill: That might work in some states, but in Ohio, "town" is an informal way of referring to a city or village, not a township. – Minh Nguyễn 💬 09:23, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

- @Mxn: Okay, so an Ohio township is neither a city, a village, a town nor a municipality. This is why we should be using Category:Populated places and Category:Flags of populated places instead. I have no great solution. I've restored two images to this category while it's under discussion. - Themightyquill (talk) 09:39, 28 February 2018 (UTC)
Closing this as "keep", because discussion is stale (over five years since the last comment!) and nothing seems actively wrong here. Feel free to start a new CfD if someone really thinks it is important that something change. - Jmabel ! talk 00:47, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
