See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines:

Be bold - if you know something about Cornwall then put it in! We value your contributions and don't be afraid if your spelling isn't great as there are plenty of spelling and grammar experts on clean-up duty!
Articles on settlements in Cornwall should be written using the standard set of headings approved by the UK geography WikiProject's guideline How to write about settlements.
At WikiProject Cornwall we subscribe to the policies laid down by Wikipedia - particularly civility and consensus building. We are aware that the wording on Cornish entries can sometimes be a contentious topic, especially those concerning geography. You don't have to agree with everything but there is no excuse for rudeness and these things are best solved through consensus building and compromise. For more information see WP:CornwallGuideline.
These pages are not platforms for political discussion. Issues relating to Cornish politics should be restricted to those pages that directly deal with these issues (such as Constitutional status of Cornwall, Cornish nationalism, etc) and should not overflow into other articles.
Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!

Population ranking section[edit]

The population ranking section seems to be based on two different sources for populations. The reference for 2001 (www.citypopulation.de) also gives figures for 2011 which contradict the figures for 2011 given in this article. The 2011 figures also seem to contradict those given by the official census reference (www.nomisweb.co.uk) whether you look at the populations of built up areas (Redruth and Camborne 42690, Falmouth 31988, St Austell 25447, Truro 23041, Newquay 20189 and Penzance 19872) or by civil parish (Falmouth 21,797, Penzance 21,045, Camborne 20,845, Newquay 20,342, St Austell 19,958 and Truro 18,766.

Given that the information given in this article differs greatly from the official census figures and the sources referenced in the article I think that this section should be removed until it can be rectified. Bodrugan (talk) 22:05, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
