Population
[edit]The structure of Lyon is a complicated subject, however the article is about the city which has a population ranked third in France. Since the metropolitan area of Lyon is not an administrative division, using its population to rank the city in the article is problematic. The recent edits also removed clarifications on the matter and some info about what Lyon is the capital of, please discuss. Cheers, Vrac (talk) 18:21, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. Actually, the administrative population is only useful for administrative reasons. Taking account of only this part of the population would give wrong idea of the effective size of the town, way bigger that Toulouse for example. In addition, they metropolitan area is clearly defined for most town in France.Wiiip (talk) 17:19, 19 September 2019 (UTC)

I think that the article is close to B-Class
[edit]In my view, only adding a little information in some sections can make the article reach B-Class, especially about Medieval Ages and some buildings such as Tour du Crédit Lyonnais, Tour Oxygène and Tour Incity. Adding a section about festivities is also a good idea. I don't do it because neither English or French are my mother tongue and processing the information from the resources and then composing the text in the article take too much effort for me.
Some sources where I found some information are listed below:
