Merge discussion[edit]

Nechako Region has been around since 2010, but is full of errors and was written as a promotional piece and mixes kinds of information; in its lede it even includes Atlin (which is nowhere near the Nechako Country) and Telkwa (which is in the Bulkley). Capitalizing "Region" has its issues re formally named MoF and MoE regions and others, granted so does "Country" as in most usages in available cites you'd see "Nechako country". But the "new" article (Nechako Country is much older, I know because I started it) needs deletion; what is of use in it should be merged into this one, and that title redirected here.Skookum1 (talk) 02:50, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

when I get time I'll assemble some online links, including older sources, to compare the two; but noting that when "Nechako region" turns up in searches, it can mean any number of things, including paired names (Nechako-Bulkley e.g.) and references to administrative regions of one kind or another. The boundary between the Nechako and Omineca "Countries", as they're often called, can be vague, though the latter includes areas north of the Nechako Plateau (which is a landform article and would remain separate) along the Omineca River and including the southern Omineca Mountains, which are part of the Peace drainage - but not part of the Peace Country. The southern boundary of the Nechako with the Chilcotin is the West Road River.Skookum1 (talk) 02:58, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
