Towns or townships?[edit]

  • Are the political divisions of Dane County really called towns and not townships? To a reader, seeing that Perry, Wisconsin is a town that has "a total area of 93.0 km²" could be confusing. Minnesota's counties are divided into smaller units called townships for instance. If this is really what they are called, I guess we have to leave it as it is. Does anyone know for sure? And if so, is this the standard all across Wisconsin?--Hraefen Talk 17:18, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes, they are called Towns. The signs, and letter head of my nearest local Towns state "The Town of Medina" or "The Town of Deerfield", however the term township is also used interchangeably. In Wisconsin, towns can be both incorporated and unincorporated - see Town for more details, along with this quote 'In some states, for example Wisconsin, "town" is used in the same way that civil township is used elsewhere'.

Vandalism?[edit]

Why were the municipalities removed? What does that have to do with the county template? 2600:1700:B270:20F0:1C45:FB90:9F61:7D8C (talk) 00:33, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
