Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cities by temperature in South America
It needs a clearer inclusion criteria, but that's easy: just use the lists of largest cities we already have and/or a list of capital cities and/or the largest city in each country and/or any of a number of other easily articulated criteria. It's weird that the primary policy people are citing is . Yes, it is statistics, but NOTSTATS does not say "no statistics are allowed on Wikipedia". To the contrary, it just says they shouldn't be unexplained. They could use a real lead, but do you have difficulty understanding the statistics, which are nicely formatted in our handy template? NOTSTATS applies to this as much as it does any of our lists of cities by population, by geographic area, by elevation, lists of countries by ... you get the idea. It's a notable topic -- there are many sources listing countries by climate, internationally, nationally, and subnationally (I don't think this has been challenged, but if someone actually does a search for sources on which to base a notability reason for deletion, I'll link to some). &mdash
