Weird wording under "Global Cities Initiative"

This sentence is worded weird: "The Global Giants classification includes wealthy, extremely large metro areas that the largest cities from developed nations."

Resonance Consultancy Ranking Missing From ‘summary of indexes’

This is really important because it then makes London by dint of calculation the highest ranking not New York. I’ll wait a couple of days for feedback and then if there are no objections update accordingly. Inadvertent Consequences (talk) 09:17, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

Tables that are original research or unsourced

The "Ranks of major cities in the world" table was entirely unsourced and has been removed. The "Global major cities with data" table was original research, with columns that were either poorly sourced or unsourced, and it has also been removed. —Jade Ten (talk) 20:42, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks! I also removed the "overall ranking" column because it was original research or unsourced. Should we also remove the map? I don't understand why some cities are smaller and/or in another color, it seems to be original research and in any case I don't think it's useful. A455bcd9 (talk) 10:07, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Sure. There’s already a GaWC map. —Jade Ten (talk) 17:45, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Rome and AT Kearney Index

I would like to point out that in the 2020 AT Kearney Global Cities Index, Rome is at number 37 in the ranking, as shown in the Annex C, p. 23.

History of Global Cities

Shouldn't this article include some former Global Cities, for example Florence was the place to be during the Renaissance. Athens is another example. ― TaltosKieronTalk 22:02, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
