Please let’s fix the grammar before other discussions
Guys sorry but y’all missed the point. I asked for the move because the current title is GRAMATICALLY INCORRECT. It needs to be plural before you start talking about moving it to a different synonym.Keizers (talk) 01:00, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Note that the official translationof城市群 is "agglomeration", but as far as I can tell, this term is approximately synonymous with urban area which is of smaller scale than metropolitan area, and thus, it is a wrong translation (or Chinglish). Meanwhile, the term "city cluster" has been widely used by the media and should be taken into consideration. But I still support megalopolises (ormegalopolises, megalopoleis). Any plural form would be fine. --H2NCH2COOH (Talk) 07:57, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
For other people, instead of became a self-taught translator, please dig out English publication. I would be surprised if no one in the uni wrote academic papers for this subject. Matthew hk (talk) 16:47, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Matthew, this title is NOT CORRECT ENGLISH! With all due respect, it is very common in Hong Kong and Singapore to forget to put the proper plural endings, because in Chinese these endings do not exist... in your own comment above you do this. So I can imagine it is not obvious to you that the title of the article simply is NOT ENGLISH!!! Moving again as it must be (as a Greek worigin word ending in "is"): "megalopolises" (common) or megalopoles (correct but awkward and uncommon)! Please do something to make this correct ENGLISH.
