A change in administrative boundaries does not automatically result in a change in urban area boundaries. The list this template follows is derived from a delineation method that ignores administrative boundaries and only looks at continuous urbanization. --Polaron |Talk15:36, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is a discrepancy between this template and the data in theList of urban areas by population as compiled by Demographia. Is there a reason for that or did it just run out of sync? If there are no objections, I'll update this template to match Demographia's 2012 data.Pandhii (talk)21:58, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is still an issue. Looking at the sources, the list seems to be quite out of order.Felipecn (talk)10:16, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
