Tasks[edit]
Dealing with former municipalities[edit]
Update (June 2020)[edit]
As of Jan 2020, there are 2202 municipalities in Switzerland (down from 2212 a year earlier). As of June 2020, there should be 4 less (5399 Verzasca) and the total should be 2198.
- On Wikidata there are 2218 instances of municipality of Switzerland (Q70208) (excluding former municipality of Switzerland (Q685309)) and those with qualifier "end time").
- On Wikidata there are 1182 instances of former municipality of Switzerland (Q685309) WDQ. For these, instances of municipality of Switzerland (Q70208) can be added with end date qualifier
This means that there is a differential of 16 municipalities that are listed in Wikidata as current but are not actually current municipalities. There is a list of recent mutations of Swiss municipalities published by Amtliches Gemeindeverzeichnis der Schweiz (Q480253) here: hist. Gemeindeverzeichnis.
- Update: the above mentioned errors are now fixed and the list has been checked against the official publication. For the final query that adds 3 territories that are not municipalities but have BSF numbers see https://w.wiki/Uec
