I just fixed some links but noticed that quite a few other links need work:
Missing: source and dates for the population figures.

I'd propose sorting this list in NUTS fashion:
As its now, it's barely legible. A list as above would pull it down to 4-12 subdivisions per level usually, except for some states. Might work on it a bit in my user sandbox.Kato2k6 14:25, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
This seems to be a good idea. By the way, probably you should change the naming or use the original german terms. Because the correct description for a Landkreis seems to be County. The Deutscher Landkreistag calls itself German County Association. This really makes sense. In the context of the EU the federal system of Germany is structured as follows: 1)municipalities, which are local self-government bodies2)counties, which are also local self-government bodies3)districts, which are only an administrative level of the administration of the Bundesland, therefore they are better called “regional district”4)federal states also called regions in the European context or landThis wording is used in the European context by the German County Association, the German Association of Town and municipalities and the German Association of Cities which are the official representatives of the local government bodies.This Nomenclature makes a clear differentiation between the self-government bodies, which are granted by the German constitution and the merely administrative level of the regional district. According to this definition the kreisfreie Stadt should be called County Borough. The term County Borough, even though it is now historical, describes perfectly the fact that this is a city or town independent to a county and with the self-governance competencies of a county.Therefore I have changed this article.--Gereonmc (talk) 16:37, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Where? It is in total disorder.Also, the links often do not refer to the districts but only to the towns that gave the districts its name. This list is a total mess.80.141.238.254 22:19, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have noticed when going through the entries that while most 'surrounding districts' are listed starting from the north, the list can start from other points without there being a body of water or a neighbouring state to provide a reason for this.
There is also a listing of 'sons and daughters of the town' and 'notable natives': surely the latter is preferable (as gender neutral/modern)? Jackiespeel (talk) 22:36, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There is also 'Famous people.'
Also in some cases 'Free State of Saxony' is so cross linked, and sometime only on 'Saxony.'
In both cases if there is a consensus on the 'preferred usage' I will do the changes when appropriate. Jackiespeel (talk) 10:08, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The page hides diversity of names of the districts. Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Germany#Names of districts Berchtesgadener Land may be the fourth version. Xx236 (talk) 11:39, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
