Im honestly surprised Alexandria didn't even make the list. 12.18.58.58 (talk) 14:29, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Context for creation of page

If the page goes for deletion, no problem. The context for its creation was that I deleted a claim from another page claiming that "Bergen is the world's most popular place name", and got challenged that I couldn't prove that it wasn't. So I found a reference, did the computation and produced the page.

I don't think it's got much value, except when settling debates about whether a place name is popular or not. Alvestrand (talk) 07:22, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
