== Landmass definition is confusing ==

The opening paragraphs states that the urban landmass is 12,093 km2, while the table lists it as 8,936 km2. Three supporting external lists (10,11,12) state that first number is the largest urban landmass. Meanwhile the table on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo lists 13,452 km2 (a larger number). I trust there is logic here, can anybody explain this to me? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Balenman (talk • contribs) 14:02, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

both articles state that the respective metro economies are the largest in the world. This obviously can't be true. Can someone determine which is largest and update both articles to reflect this. 2A02:8084:6A81:3380:92C:2561:7D79:880F (talk) 21:02, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

:Here's the problem: if reliable sources say the same thing about both metro areas, then there's no case to be made here. As incoherent as it is, we're not here to determine what is "true" -we simply state what reliable sources say. If reliable sources say something seemingly absurd, that's what we say in the article.

:So, the best way to make a case to straighten this out is to gather and present sources. Jonathan f1 (talk) 04:32, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

File:New York Metropolitan Area Counties Illustration.PNG Moving with the times, I will be recreating - and eventually replacing within the article - this image with an SVG equivalent. The current version serves the purpose, but is awfully inferior for the high resolution screens we have nowadays. Great job for a 2005 map, though.

If anyone has any suggestions (for example, differentiating the NY MSA and CSA) please reply here. Rishabh Tatiraju (talk) 23:27, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

:Correction needs to be made -- Pike County is no longer included in the NYC MSA and needs to be removed. 170.85.72.88 (talk) 20:09, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
