Note: I have already gotten a welcome message, which I have erased. Shanghai population...Hi there, the latest figure for Shanghai's population is only for Shanghai's core districts and suburban areas. The official Chinese source cites a population of over 19 million, but it includes the floating population. I therefore used the World Gazetteer's figure, which is extensively used to justify the rankings in this article, including that of Mumbai's. You will need a better reason for rejecting my edit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by By78 (talk • contribs) 22:56, 8 February 2009 (UTC) Having lived in Shanghai for 16 months and stayed in Mumbai for two weeks, I think I can offer something to the discussion here. First, let's start from the root: the definition of city proper. I checked out the wiki article on this term, and it seems to define it as the territory falling under the control of a municipal government. If we apply this definition, then why when it comes to Shanghai, we have to stick to the core districts and some adjoining urban areas? My only guess is that some believe that beyond the urban core, Shanghai is mostly idyllic farms, with pigs running around, and with satellite towns dotting the landscape here and there, unconnected to Shanghai's urban core. My experience in Shanghai tells me that this notion is simply silly. Surely that many of the outlaying districts are mostly farm lands, but what most people have not had the chance to see with their own eyes is how expansive the urban area of Shanghai is from its Pudong and Puxi core. Unlike NYC-Newark, where one can discern where NYC ends and where Newark begins, Shanghai's urban area is contiguous, without break. One cannot discern any "satellite" towns or districts at all. It is an eyeball-to-eyeball jungle of concrete buildings. At the urban core, you have the CBDs, with their obligatory skyscrapers, and further out, the height of the buildings gradually decrease, until miles and miles out, to become four story buildings. This massive swath of civilization (no farmland here to break up the urban jungle) is where the vast, vast majority of Shanghai residents live. It is only after you get beyond this outer limit of four-story houses, that you encounter farm land, which runs continuous out to the municipal boundary of Shanghai. This "outer-belt" of arm land is indeed sparsely populated, but even if you are to exclude it from the population count, Shanghai at most would lose one million residents. In fact, the latest Chinese figure has Shanghai's population at around 19 million. Gazetteer's number is much lower, and I believe this is because Gazetteer had already cut out the "rural" and the "floating" population. In fact, Gazetteer's figures is pretty close to the number of Shanghai residents who registered with the Hukou system.

Zhoukou populationHello!I come from Shangqiu in Henan,China,so my English isn't very good,i'm very sorry.But I will say that the population of Zhoukou is really 10,600,000,not 1,060,000.You know,china has the largest population in the world,and Henan has the largest population in China,it's nearly 100,000,000.Zhoukou has the largest population in Henan,which has beyonded 10,000,000.It's has 10 counties,almost every county has a population of 1,000,000,so,the population of Zhoukou is really 10,600,000.Except for Zhoukou,other cities in Henan also have a large population.For example,Shangqiu has a population about 9,000,000,Nanyang has a population beyond 10,000,000(not 1,000,000).I think the foreign friends can't realise the population in Henan. a person come from China,who doesn't have a account in English wikipedia but has a account in Chinese wikipedia(my account is "hesida2000",if you know some Chinese,you can talk to me about it, 1:55,17 October,2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.60.192.84 (talk) Changsha subdistricts, townsFirstly, thanks very much for beginning work on those township-level divisions of Changsha.

I'm hoping it'll keep vandals away from the rest of my page, and also give non-vandals a chance to have a little fun without causing any real harm. Thanks.
