From the introduction:
As the second most populous and the most densely populated region in the Philippines, it ranks as the 9th most populous metropolitan area in Asia and the 6th most populous urban area in the world.
From the "Demographics" section:
It is the second most populous (after Calabarzon) and most densely populated region in the Philippines, the 7th most populous metropolitan area in Asia, and the 4th most populous urban area in the world.
Is it 9th or 7th? Is it 6th or 4th? The "most populous urban area" text is linked to List of largest cities, whose "List" section puts Manila at #18 worldwide. Nyttend (talk) 19:19, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
- Perhaps "the 6th most populous urban area in the world" should be removed. The urban area of Manila extends into neighboring provinces. The list likely refers to continuous urbanization rather than the legally defined "Metropolitan Manila". HueMan1 (talk) 00:26, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
