I understand that the list is on the longish side, but splitting the article in two made it less navigable: if one needs an item in (N-Z) part, he would have to 1) parse the lead to find the link 2) click on it and wait for the page to load. On average, that makes access slower than having to wait just one list to load, and overall more inconvenient. I think that 140 kB of text is quite manageable both for readers and editors, and it's much easier to find the information this way. ] (]) 09:32, 5 February 2010 (UTC) I understand that the list is on the longish side, but splitting the article in two made it less navigable: if one needs an item in (N-Z) part, he would have to 1) parse the lead to find the link 2) click on it and wait for the page to load.

Database

This list is semi-automatically (export/lots of text macros/lots of manual disambiguation) generated from a MS Access 2003 database, made by myself from census data 2002. If anyone is interested in playing with it, it can be downloaded from my personal web site; it should reasonably match the contents of this list (as of 2 August 2007) (since I had to add disambiguators manually in both the text and the database, there might be certain deviations). The database contains only settlement, municipality, population, postal number data. Duja► 11:30, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Merged back

I understand that the list is on the longish side, but splitting the article in two made it less navigable: if one needs an item in (N-Z) part, he would have to 1) parse the lead to find the link 2) click on it and wait for the page to load. On average, that makes access slower than having to wait just one list to load, and overall more inconvenient. I think that 140 kB of text is quite manageable both for readers and editors, and it's much easier to find the information this way. No such user (talk) 09:32, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Problem with the map

This is a list of populated places in Serbia, not including Kosovo. Why, then, must editors reinsert a map which includes Kosovo as part of Serbia? bobrayner (talk) 22:09, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
