Talk:List of metropolitan areas in Japan

message: The statement "The unit of population is 10,000 people." seems inconsistent with the numbers in the table. It would imply that the Greater Tokyo area, with a population of 34,940,000 units, has 349,400,000,000 people. I'll take the sentence out. Fg2 11:42, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Removed statement

message: Any help with updating the table is appreciated. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 20:11, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Need more help with stats

message: None of the listed sources are reliable sources and some are Wikipedia mirrors. The Japanese government does not even define some of the listed areas as metropolitan areas. As a start, the Japan Statistics Bureau data only should be used. An alternative source might be the metropolitan employment area data by the University of Tokyo. --Polaron | Talk 20:18, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Encyclopedia Britannica is not a reliable source? And specifically which are Wikipedia mirrors? Mongobay isn't, and neither is the City Mayor Statistics. Those are all the sources currently being used. If you know of others, please add them. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 00:40, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The population statistics do not match the sources. The Britannica articles do not include any regional population statistics and the others are not reliable sources for population data. In any case, I'll be doing a massive overhaul of this list to use the two sources I mentioned above. --Polaron | Talk 01:44, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: For the Statistics Bureau data see here. Definitions can be found here. For the Univ. of Tokyo study see here. --Polaron | Talk 03:29, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: for concision's sake, the argument was concision.  list of metropolitan areas in Japan redirects here and list of metropolitan areas in Japan by area doesnt exist68.151.25.115 (talk) 19:36, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: The fact that there is a redirect doesn't mean the two things are the same. This article has existed since 2002. The redirect was created in November 2015 for unknown reasons. --AussieLegend (✉) 20:59, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

text: ...maybe list of metropolitan areas in Japan by area is a notable topic?68.151.25.115 (talk) 20:50, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: What relevance does that have to the diiscussion? It's a totally separate topic. --AussieLegend (✉) 20:59, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: Your response makes no sense. You still haven't given a valid reason for moving the article. The current title is 100% accurate, concise, and clear for what it contains. There is no valid reason to move it. Now, stop harassing me unless you've got something worthwhile to say. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 06:23, 25 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: The original IP has still not given a valid reason to move the article, However, BarrelProof has. Based on that argument, I can support the move. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 15:05, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
