Frequently asked questions

Please change the population figure to the latest available figure. The City website shows this figure. Statistics Canada shows this estimated figure.

We only use population figures from the official census per WP:CANPOP. We do not accept any other source, not from the city, and not from Statistics Canada estimates.

Missing detail?

[edit]

The lede is woefully inadequate without a mention of Toronto's ascendancy at the expense of Montreal. If not for the Québec nationalism, Toronto would still be the Second City. Glaring omission, and if I trawled the history, I bet it used to be there... 142.126.140.83 (talk) 00:42, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's already mentioned in History of Toronto. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 13:23, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Less precipitation than rainfall?

[edit]

I was looking at the weatherbox for the climate of Toronto here when I saw that it said that Toronto had less precipitation than rainfall in August and September (August had 71.9 mm of precip but 81.1 mm of rainfall, for example). This seems illogical because rainfall contributes to precipitation totals, and thus is a part of it. Can someone check this/check the resource?

Simple spelling error

[edit]

Can anybody turn "Lakes Simcoe" into "Lake Simcoe" under the Quick Facts section? Over1BillionPagesOnWiki (talk) 13:33, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done "Lakes Simcoe and Couchiching" is grammatically correct as it refers to both Lake Simcoe and Lake Couchiching. By the way, the proper term for the "Quick Facts" section is the Infobox. By the way, you can now edit semi-protected pages yourself. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 16:16, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
However, I did correct a different spelling error in the infobox, or as you call it the Quick Facts section, albeit regarding the spelling of "statutory." Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:17, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
