I'm continuing my goal to bring all lists of municipalities in North America up to a consistent, high standard (25 states and provinces so far...!). I tried to incorporate changes from previous nominations but I'm sure I've missed some. Happy to improve these lists in any way. Thanks! Mattximus (talk) 19:19, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments from ChrisTheDude
- No need to link Durango Municipality twice inside three sentences in the lead Done
- The footnotes are complete sentences and therefore need full stops. Done
- Think that's all I've got -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:03, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for your review! I've made both easy fixes. Mattximus (talk) 17:35, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Dudley
[edit]- The article on Durango says that the state has the second lowest population density - worth mentioning? Done
- What is the difference between trustees and councillors?
- I don't know, and the citation states "they have the same... status".
- It is confusing to have the km area for Mexico rounded to a whole number when other figures are to 2 decimal places. They should be shown consistently.
- I agree but scanning the page every area has 2 decimal places. I can't find the one rounded to the whole number.
- The area of Mexico is shown as 1,972,550 sq km. Dudley Miles (talk) 10:59, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks found it now. The problem is, I cannot find a source that gives the area of the country to two decimals, I assume this is since the area is so large the error on rounding the coast exceeds 2 decimals of precision...hmmm
- The figure for sq mi is shown as 761,605.81, and as this appears to be a conversion from a whole number of sq km it is false precision. I suggest showing both figures ending in .00. The columns will then line up and it will be obvious that they are only accurate to a whole number. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:07, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Agree with false precision, however adding .00 would also be false precision. So I removed the decimals altogether so at least the precision is accurate. Mattximus (talk) 20:32, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Support – Looks good. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 18:13, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Source review – All of the references are reliable and well-formatted, and the link-checker tool shows that they all work. No problems here. Giants2008 (Talk) 22:08, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
