Talk:Metro Detroit

message: I was just doing some poking around the new American FactFinder, and realize that the areas given here for each of the divisions (urbanized area, MSA, and CSA) actually include both land and water.  Is this consistent with how area is given for other metropolitan pages here on wiki, or should be just include the land area?  I ask, because Wayne and Macomb counties, in particular, include a lot of water, specifically, Lake St. Clair. --Criticalthinker (talk) 03:38, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

message: I'd like to propose changing the population infobox back to the "US Census population" format where it automatically calculates the percentage gain or loss over the decade.  In fact, this box also needs to be on the Detroit article, too.  To keep this consistent with most other metro pages, the "metro" is always the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA).  I don't mind keeping information about the CSA in the article, but I think the primary focus should always be on the actual metropolitan area as formally defined by the Census and OMB.  There is also really no need to include the city's population history, here.  If anyone is vehement against this change, then I would propose using both infoboxes, but putting the "US Census population" calculator in the Demographics subsection. I just think most people would like to be able to see the gains and losses as a percentage and for the box to be more simple. --Criticalthinker (talk) 11:41, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Heads up.  I will be changing this soon.  It will read like the historical population charts consistent with other wiki pages.  Since this is about the MSA, that is what will be featured.  We don't need historic populations for the CSA and city present in the same infobox. --Criticalthinker (talk) 08:36, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
