Editors are advised to familiarise themselves with the contentious topics procedures before editing this page.


Urbanization/List of largest cities

At least for Tekirdag, the list of largest cities in this article lists the population of the whole Tekirdag province as the population of the city of Tekirdag (which only encompasses a small part of the province). Might this be true for other (Turkish?) cities on the list, too? PragmaFisch (talk) 11:28, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Link to page for Neologism

Hi all, just wanted to point out that this page could link to the Misplaced Pages article for Neologism under the "Western Balkans" section. I was going to make the edit myself but saw this page was protected, so if someone with access wants to link it I think that would help enrich the article. Also, apologies in advance if I'm making a Misplaced Pages faux pas, I don't edit much. Thanks! Seanmorr122 (talk) 22:24, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Is the Balkans technically a peninsula?

Is the Balkans still considered to be a peninsula? Some people said that it does not meet the definition of peninsula, but what is the exact definition of peninsula anyway?

If the Balkans is not a peninsula, then Mainland Southeast Asia, the Horn of Africa, and Alaska are probably not peninsulas too. Aren't they?

Geography is weird and confusing.
