Hello. I am afraid that I will have to quick-fail this nomination. There are significant problems with the article, such as large chunks of unreferenced prose, citations to unreliable and/or dead sources, fragmented arrangement of content in sections which comes off as random presentation of facts vs. a cohesive representation of sub-topics, and a lack of summary style coverage in almost all sections despite of the article's size (for instance, the "History" section jumps from 1905 to 2012 within two paragraphs after three paragraphs that are dedicated to the events of 1894–1899). The article will require a lot of work before it can get close to meeting the good article criteria, and I would advice the nominator to study examples of existing good articles on the topic of cities to get a clearer picture of what the article should strive to emulate. Thank you. — The Most Comfortable Chair 06:30, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
