too many locations listed[edit]

This article is in severe need of being hacked down severely; right now it is a puff-piece. As it stands, it is a list of inhabited locations, not a list of cities. If you look at the equivalent articles for other countries, there are far fewer locations listed. About the only locations I'd list are present/former capitals, and those places that have been given a title of "cita" historically. To call anything else a city would count as original research anyway. Rhialto 07:29, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Qormi or Hal Qormi?[edit]

too small?[edit]

By the usual standards that most other countries use when designating a city, Malta's cities would be too small to be considered such.
Apparently, because strangely the largest settlement (Birkirkara) is not a city but "only" a town. It has over 22,000 inhabitants, but the respective article (List of towns in Malta) does not have populations. 82.141.95.124 (talk) 02:22, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And, largest these listed cities is Qormi. Its article has this: fifth largest locality in Malta. Rather strange that the four largest would not be cities at all. Though, the largest one, Birkirkara, is addressed as a city in several places, including its own article and Malta article. 82.141.95.124 (talk) 02:45, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
