Nominating in similar fashion to my previous nomination for List of cities in New Brunswick. Please let me know if I should expand upon or change anything and I'll be more than happy to do so. Thanks, reviewers! B3251 (talk) 16:33, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Prose

 * "sixth largest by land area" - Needs an extra source to specify the territories as it's eighth overall. Stats Canada combines the provinces with the territories
 * "Cities, towns and villages... minimum population of 7,500" - Needs page numbers (page 1 and page 27).
 * "although Flin Flon, part of which is in the neighbouring province of Saskatchewan," - Stats Canada lists this as Flin Flon (Part) but does not specify the other part is in Saskatchewan.
 * Manitoba's capital and largest city -> Manitoba's largest city (as Stats Canada doesn't specify that Winnipeg is the capital of Manitoba).
 * the two largest cities has wards," -> two cities have wards (as the election source doesn't state population).

Table

 * Citation #9 (MHS Resources: Manitoba Communities) doesn't mention any of the incorporation dates and can be removed. The source next to each date are sufficient enough for verification.
 * The Regions need a citation.
 * Citation needed for the note saying Flin Flon is in Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
 * Pop. densities need a slight fix based on Stats Canada source: Flin Flon 376.1, Morden 609.6, Winkler 663.1

 * @MrLinkinPark333 Partially done: I've gone ahead and made some changes, but I could not find an extra source in land area. Please let me know what can be done about that. Regarding the regions, my assumption is that it would be WP:SKYBLUE because this can be verified just based on their geographic locations, and is what I'm guessing to be the reason why my also recently-nominated List of cities in New Brunswick passed without requiring citations for the counties each city belong to in there.

 * In regards to land area, I think an extra source that specifically states the names of the 10 provinces could help. This could be placed adjacent to the Stats Canada source, as it says Canada, provinces and territories. For the regions, I'm not sure if it's pass common knowledge per "easily verified by a non-specialized map". This doesn't have regions while this uses different regions..Otherwise:
 * The Government of Manitoba source also needs page 1 to show the 1996 Municipal Act..
 * sixth largest by land area" -> might want to reword to "sixth largest province by land area" to avoid confusion.
 * The Canadian Encyclopedia source can be reused for the note for Flin Flon in the table.
 * The Population densities still need adjusting.
