Keep (but MOS)It does look like a ski region with numerous resorts and 'pretty Tyrolean villages'. I guess it is a marketing name tied to the region but is it across one region or many? I notice a number of resorts with pages listed in Winter sports in Austria so, I guess, resorts are acceptable. In which case, a marketing name for a ski region should be acceptable too, especially if that name is better known than the region name.--Wandering 13:16, 8 January 2008 (EST) Outcome: Kept with a region template --Nick 08:20, 29 February 2008 (EST) |
