The information in this article and similar articles were not taken from http://www.bhoomi.lk/srilanka_cities_in-Central_Province-3-a.aspx nor http://www.bhoomi.lk/srilanka_cities_in-central_province-3-Y.aspx. The names of the towns were from here and the article was also referenced, plus it is a list and there are others like it such as List of towns and villages in the Republic of Ireland, List of towns in England, List of towns in Wales, List of cities and towns in Russia etc. so I don't see what the problem is.--Blackknight12 (talk) 08:01, 28 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

I think I got the links wrong then. A Google search gave bhoomi.lk link as the first result. But I am not sure whether editors allowed quote this much long list. However both bhoomi.lk and fallingrain are unreliable sources. I have no problem with the topic and indeed I think it is a must have. But I don't think it should be a copy/pasted list and superfluous one too. Best--Chanaka L (talk) 09:27, 28 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

The external links on almost all individual articles in this list are dead and need to be replaced. I've started a bot request discussion on the matter here. —  Melofors  TC  22:10, 11 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

See Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/BattyBot 60. Template:DCS Sri Lanka can be edited if another problem like this occurs. —  Melofors  TC 05:22, 14 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
