Talk:List of the most populous municipalities in the Nordic countries

Moving page to new title?

This page needs to get a new title. The term most populated municipalites are not the correct way to present this page. I will strongly support the page name Largest cities in Nordic countries. This is the way other pages are presented.

See below.

Largest cities in Europe This is a list of the largest cities in Europe by population within city limits. It deals exclusively with the areas within city administrative boundaries (municipalities) as opposed to urban areas or metropolitan areas, which are generally larger in terms of population than the main city.

That is the correct term - Largest cities - by population within city administrative boundaries. 86.52.97.110 (talk) 20:58, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

No, I think the term “municipalities” rather than “cities” is appropriate; I don't like to call anything that doesn't have a very high population density (at least ~700 km^–2) a ‘city’. Appropriately, in Sweden and and Denmark, the term ‘city’ refers mainly to the core builtup area, so that, for instance, Jönköping has a population of about 90,000; rather than the ~131,000 people in the whole municipality; i like it that way, and I think the same terminology should apply for Finland (where I was born), Norway, and Iceland (so that Kuopio, for instance, would be reckoned to have a population of only about 84,000; rather than 106,000).--Solomonfromfinland (talk) 08:09, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Two Swedish municipalities

-- namely Huddinge and Lund -- are missing from this list; both have over 10⁵ people. (Huddinge is a suburb of Stockholm.)--Solomonfromfinland (talk) 08:02, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
