Hello! There are, if you want to know, 217 communities and neighbourhoods in HRM, including the planning areas, and the neighbourhoods or villages inside those planning areas.
No one is saying that all of HRM is "halifax" we are in the middle of trying to introduce the clarity to these articles you clearly are looking for.
Here are the communities & neighbourhoods you were looking for:

I'm not sure I understand you, can you explain what you ment. My only edits to the article were basically to protect it. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 09:42, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
Listen, no one is going to delete the articles about Halifax, Dartmouth, etc... there will ALSO be an article about the urban area of HRM. WayeMason 10:16, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
I am trying to be civil and a good wikipedian here, but please, read the article before you revert again. The urban core is part of Dartmouth inside of the circumferential and the peninsula, the urban area what used to be metro Halifax, its Dartmouth, Halifax (both parts) Bedford and a big chunk of the former county. The article is about the HALIFAX URBAN AREA as defined by HRM and statscan and also as defined by wikipedia's own urban area article. It is not about the URBAN CORE of HRM, as defined by HRM. I know you have your agenda about HRM and you feel I have mine, but it is bad wiki for you to write a misleading description about the article in the disambig page, when you are talking about one thing, and the article as about another.WayeMason 02:12, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Hey there. While editing last weekend I realized we are both correct. HRM uses "urban core" and "urban area" differently depending on which department of HRM is using the term. As we have been saying for 2.5 years on the Halifax pages, the reason the Halifax pages are confusing is because it is confusing in real life. I suggest the following things. The Halifax urban area article should be renamed the "Metropolitan Halifax" article, which brings it in line with the wikipedia definition of a metro area. The second is that we should write an explanation, probably in paragraph form, of the different and conflicting terms used to describe communities and areas in the HRM. The question is, where does this explanation go? The HRM page? The urban area page? Is it its own article? Thoughts? WayeMason 10:53, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
There is no universal areas they use for the whole government . Dartmouth for example is in the eastern region for streets and roads ,part of the metropolion area of Halifax , in the Dartmouth Downtown and Datmouth planning areas ' in districts 5 to 9 , in the urban core for winter parking and the area is part of the urban core inside HWY.111 .confusing
I've attempted to make a first draft of a new Halifax, Nova Scotia article, in my userspace here. It's in a very rough-and-ready form, and needs a lot of tidying, sorting, and being made consistent, as well as a proper opening, before it's ready. But it should give an idea as to what I believe that article should contain. Please take a look at it. Thanks, --RFBailey 19:24, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi there, I get what you're saying in your edit summarys about where the link should be former city rather than new city, but there are some articles where you are still linking the Halifax Regional Municipality article. Putting it in wikilinks is only going to cause a redirection to the changed name article, so if there are articles where you want the HRM to still appear, you should include the pipe link to the new name to avoid causing redirections. That's all I'm trying to do is avoid redirections, but if you insist on reverting me everytime I fix the redirection, than I'll just backoff and let the confusion run its course. There has always been confusion around the Halifax articles and I doubt changing the name of the HRM article is going to stop the confusion overnight. I've noticed there are also articles about urban Halifax, metro Halifax, mainland Halifax, resulting in more confusion. Do you know what the difference between them is?

Hi there - you and I and User:Ego White Tray have been changing around the hatnote on Halifax, Nova Scotia. We should stop wasting each other's time, and discuss it on the talk page. I've started the discussion. I invite you to contribute. AshleyMorton (talk) 13:49, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
There is Halifax, Nova Scotia that is actually Halifax Regional Municipality' and no matter how popular it is the legal name of the article Halifax, Nova Scotiarepresent is still today is Halifax Regional Municipality nothing changed except the logo. Now where the Halifax (former city) isthe present community that is a legal General Service Area placename of Nova Scotia according to www.halifax.ca the website of Halifax Regional Municipality. But Halifax Regional Municipality is Municipality not a placename like Dartmouth ,Bedford and the other GSA's of Nova Scotia . This is the problem the facts are getting lost the this consensus where people do not get the facts behind the article . 19960401 14:26, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi there. I see that you and I have both been very active in editing around Halifax, Nova Scotia - related articles lately. I see that a lot of the time, you're focussing on maintaining a distinction based on the General Service Areas. I'm afraid that this is somewhat counterproductive. As shown by the strong majority vote on the move request, that's not the way that Wikipedia works. Just because a distinction exists doesn't mean that it that it's the most important distinction. It is really important that the concept of the place "Halifax" not be constantly divided along previously-existing boundaries just because we can. *That's* way more confusing than talking about the place in general, and then talking about subdivisions *when they're relevant*. This is the case with all other metro articles - the primary article is about the place in general, and then other internal subdivisions have secondary articles, or no article at all. I really think that you should back up your understanding and try to convince the community (me included!) of your version of the system, rather than continuing to push through with a bunch of reverts and so on. I really do believe that I'm open to listen to your idea, but you're going to have to convince me that we need Halifax to be different than everything else on Wikipedia. AshleyMorton (talk) 13:59, 29 April 2014 (UTC) To start the title of Halifax Regional Municipality should not have been changed because the real name accord its website www.halifax.ca is Halifax Regional Munipality not Haifax I do not see the article for the Cape Breton Regional Municipality is curtainly not Cape Breton .According to the rule its not what the popular name is its what the real name . The same with copyrights its what the legal use of an image is not up to debate to nor is it whether the severs are in the United States or not its the legal aspect of the use of the image that is at play here. Communities and placenames in Nova Scotia are called General Service Areas `they are the legal placename in Nova Scotia and as the article states they are not municipalities like the Halifax Regional Municipalities nor is a municipality is always placename Places like Canso are placenames they were municipalities but the fact is its still a placename Same goes as Halifax in area where the old city was . That area never lost its identity nor today that area expanded where people are mislead to believe that Halifax, Nova Scotia is not interchangeable with Halifax Regional Municipality nor is HRM legally nor in reality a placename . This is where people are not doing the research and where basing on popularity is wrong 19960401 15:02, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
