Talk:Councillor

[Untitled]

Hi,

In Poland there is "radny miasta" (member of city counsil), "radny gminy" (member of the council of the gmina), "radny powiatu" (... powiat) and "radny sejmiku województwa" (... województwo). Shall I make a interwiki-link between Polish radny and herewith councillor?

"Councillor" as a title.

I was hoping for a reference to a legal source for the statement that the title "councillor" should only apply to city, district or borough councillors. Debrett, for all that it is a well-established style guide, is not a legal reference book and the question of whether the title is valid or not is a legal, not stylistic one.

I cannot recall ever having seen this spelling in U.S. usage.

Worldwide view, or lack thereof

This page not only deals more or less singularly with the UK, it only really has an English perspective within that. Tartan Nutter (talk) 16:29, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

United States: mention of Washington, DC seems out of place

Certainly Washington, DC has a unique government compared with other cities in the US, however I don't think that warrants it being mentioned specifically, when all other cities are lumped together as a single bullet point; i.e. for the purposes of this article I think DC should be considered just another city.
