Talk:List of cities in Afghanistan

message: * List of cities in Afghanistan - someone put a cleanup template on this, but it doesn't seem to have been reported here. I did some, but it needs alphabetising, dab'ing... how can a country of 16 million have so many "cities"?  Grutness|hello?  09:50, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

message: World Gaztteer is not a reliable source that the contents of this article are based on. It is a private unit and not a formal or recognized research unit.
According to the Central Statistics Office of Afghanistan, the presented demographic figures in this article/list are not accurate and the list is in disorder. 
Here are the figures according to CSA:
* Kabul - 2,536,300 (and not 3,120,963 because it seems to be the population of Kabul Province. The total population of Kabul province according to CSA is 3,138,100)
* Kandahar - 450,300
* Herat - 349,000
* Mazari Sharif - 300,600
* Kunduz - 264,100
* Taloqan (center of Takhar province) - 196,400
* Puli Khumri (center of Baghlan province) - 180,0
* Jalalabad - 168,600
* Charikar (Parvan Province) - 153,500
* Sheberghan (Jowzjan Province) - 143,900
* Ghazni - 141,000
* Sari Pul - 136,000
All these figures compromise both the Urban and Metropolitan populations. The figures are as of 2006 estimation.
According to CSA, Bamiyan and Balkh cities have respectively 73,200 and 105,300 populations, so the figures of World Gazetteer are completely inaccurate. I suggest to choose the reports of Central Statistics Office of Afghanistan as the reference. Ariana310 19:58, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: File:Ghazni City in 2011.jpg Nominated for Deletion

message: There is no doubt that the collection of accurate data is difficult for this subject. Nevertheless, even by WP′s highly uneven standards, this is a pretty unreliable article. 
Look at the pictures on the right and you will see that Kandahar is the #3 city: the table on the left, however, states otherwise. Now place your cursor over Mazari Sharif and you will see, without even leaving the page, that that is also #3 city. Now put the cursor over Herat and you get yet another #3 city. Call it the Rule of Threes. 3 options - choose you own.
This article, and those of the cities themselves, purport to be supervised by two separate projects: Cities; and Afghanistan. Can neither come to a conclusion as to which source might be the more reliable, and why, and make sense of this?
