Prefecture or city? edit

What is the intended scope of this category? Its content (e.g. former municipalities) covers the whole prefecture (i.e. Tokyo as en.wikipedia defines it/東京都/旧東京府), and it is a subcategory of Category:Tokyo. Or is it supposed to be restricted to the – as administrative unit: former – city (i.e. 東京都区部/旧東京市) as the inclusion in Category:Histories of cities in Japan instead of Category:History of Japan by prefecture and the interwiki link to ja:Category:東京の歴史 instead of ja:Category:東京都の歴史 suggest? If the latter is the case, prefecture-wide content should be removed; but if this refers to all of Tokyo "Metropolis"/prefecture, interlanguage link and category should be corrected and some other historical events could be included (e.g. a certain battle that took place in Iōjima, Tokyo comes immediately to a 20th century mind). --Asakura Akira (talk) 15:33, 11 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
