thread_title:  Proununciation? 

message: I did just move two links which i was sure of to be more logically placed in "External Links" than "References". Some of the other links i think maybe better in external links than references, but i'm not sure. perhaps the original editors could give advice about the original intentions?
Links in question:
* Map of north and central Guayaquil
* Guayaquil Information
* Old Photos of Guayaquil 
* Photos of Guayaquil I
* Photos of Guayaquil II
and the following links i feel do not really provide any noteworthy informationeht therefor i think they should be deleted, anyone any opinion about that?
* Guayaquil
* Guayaquil information

message: I don't think that a Study abroad learning center can count as a higher education institute. Therefore Blue Hill College should be eliminated from the article
BCH is more than a Study Abroad learning center. They do offer a few university level degrees. It should stay there.

message: This article is beginning to more closely resemble a tourist brochure than an encyclopaedia, and the resultant impression is very different from the city that most of its residents know.  I reckon that at least half of the pictures should be culled, or at least moved to a gallery section: I could be bold, but would rather invite people to nominate here which ones we can live without.

message: "In 1800 Guayaquil had a population of about 2,000 people; by 1700 the city had a population of over 10,000."
The history section could use a little cleaning up by someone knowledgeable of the area, I think.

This information is wrong, and should not be in the article.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.152.156.27 (talk) 05:15, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

message: Where did that information come from?
It has no source and I am pretty certain that it's wrong anyway so it should just be removed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.113.46.28 (talk) 17:19, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

message: I have changed the starting paragraph from "largest city" to "second largest city" because Quito is bigger. In fact, the linked citation actually states that Guayaquil is no longer the largest city in Ecuador.

thread_title:  Second largest city 

message: There is great controversy regarding the most populated cities in the country, however, "Quito has been ratified as the most populous city in Ecuador," as there are no articles in the law or the like that dictate that the population of a city is purely urban, it is municipal as a whole. Quito has 2,735,987 inhabitants (remember that Quito is not only the area of ​​urban parishes, Quito comprises a whole, that is, Quito D.M.), while Guayaquil (understand Guayaquil as a WHOLE) has 2,698,077 inhabitants. A clear difference of just over 38,000 inhabitants, a gap that increases over the years. There are people who defend by sword that Guayaquil is still the most populous city in the country, CLEAR REGIONALISM an desinformation (Wikipedia isn't the only reference). Of course, its urban parishes concentrate more population than those of Quito. 2.6 million vs. 2 million. But 'the term city UNDERSTANDS EVERYTHING', not just urban cities, since, as I mentioned earlier, there is no law that indicates that a city is made up of urban parishes. For example, Calderón is a rural parish in Quito, but it belongs to the city of Quito.
If so, otherwise please let me know in my personal discussion. Also, I delete the "controversy" note, because I leave below evidence and sufficient references that notice that Quito is the largest city of Ecuador.
