Hawaii/Places/Main Discussion View history


Hawaii follows the USA standard for Places[[1]]. Do not deviate from the guidelines without first obtaining consensus to do so via the state forum linked on this page.

In Hawaii the street segment fronting the Place often has one of the Census Designated Place (CDP) names in the City field for help with navigation. This often automatically populates the City field of the Place file. However, the Place file should be edited to list the City as displayed on the website or other primary source, usually the postal address.

See Hawaii/Places for guidance in Hawaii that may not be universal to all other states and territories.
