Please do not add or change content, as you did at Salina, Utah, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Knuthove (talk) 22:31, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't make unsourced edits!

If you keep changing city to town when there are good sources in the article saying it is a city, like you did at Cave City, Arkansas, Buffalo, Wyoming, Salina, Utah and probably others, you will be blocked. Please, communicate and cite sources! Knuthove (talk) 22:37, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I won’t edit those But you need to keep Kingsland Arkansas and Abott Texas a town because 1) there is no evidence saying it’s a city and 2) they don’t match with the definition of a city and also these small country towns shouldn’t be called a city because there is not enough population to make it one and it’s not big enough to be a city and there’s no skyscrapers and streets. Sorry about that Texas0213 (talk) 18:50, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted you at Abbott, Texas, because multiple sources call it a city. See here, here, and here. Articles in Wikipedia about incorporated municipalities in the US always use their official names. Trying to override the official name of a municipality based on your interpretation of a definition of "city" is original research, which is not allowed in Wikipedia. Using the official title of a municipality without regard to the size of its population may seem strange, but we have done so since the very early days of Wikipedia. I would point out that the smallest "city" in Florida is Lake Buena Vista, Florida, with a population of 10 in 2010, while the largest "village" in Florida is Wellington, Florida, which had a population of 56,508 in 2010. - Donald Albury 20:35, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fine Abott is a city but I’ve started to edit these communities in the southern and western United States and changing them from City to Town since late 2019 or early 2020 after reading the Administrative divisions of New York (state) learning the difference between towns, villages and cities. Again sorry I won’t change Abott TX again without evidence saying that it is a town. Texas0213 (talk) 20:41, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
