Problems reagrding imaging

The images are creating a lot of problems. Its covering the country part. Please do not revert the edits made, but please try and rectify the problem.

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

The images for me aren't creating a problem. It's probably because I'm using a widescreen computer. As for the rankings, I should have really explained this in the lead. It's really difficult to choose a list as a standard ranking because people would have disputes over them. The ranking that the article is based on is whichever metropolitan area had the highest estimate was ranked. If you look at the bolded (highest estimates) they go in decreasing order. I'll add this to the article to create less confusion. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 16:00, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sources

The sources used in this article do not seem to be reliable. Citypopulation.de is private website which does not list its exact sources of information, World Atlas copies most data from Wikipedia verbatim, I am not sure about Demographia but it does not appear to be very good either. If someone can remove/replace them that would be great (have a look at List of metropolitan areas in Europe for a better view of sources). Gotitbro (talk) 22:25, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
