Can't believe it's not been nominated already. It's very informative, tells you of citie likely to enter of leave the list soon. Nearly all the cities have references and links to every article is provided. Jimmmmmmmmm 13:23, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. No references (and some other concerns, but get the refs addressed first). -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 15:04, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Every city has a refernce next to it. Just because they are not listed at the bottom doesn't mean they are not there. Jimmmmmmmmm 15:21, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You should convert those to footnotes with proper formatting. All the sections below the main list need sources. The "cities likely" sections most definitely need sources or else should be axed, since Wikipedia is not a crystall ball. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 10:15, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I think it would be a bit confusing to have a reference list at the end as long as the article itself. I'd support if you just gave the references their own column so the years line up, used formatting on the references (not just a link), and gave references for the stuff below the top 100 list. --Arctic Gnome 20:26, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No it wouldn't. See list of vegetable oils and list of European Union member states by political system for two recent examples of long reference sections. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 17:46, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. You might as well put the reference at the end. Though there should be a link from each item to its reference so its easy to tell what info came from where. --Arctic Gnome 18:20, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Nice list, but the "Population" and "census year" columns are tooc lose to each other. Could you fix it? CG 10:31, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Reply to CG Done that but it squash the to the left on smaller screens like the one I'm on now. Jimmmmmmmmm 10:59, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, however the main problem still references. It seems that only the top 100 list is referenced whereas the other sections are not. CG 17:14, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for now, lack of references, formatting could be improved as well. —Nightstallion (?) 06:54, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
