B.B.C polls[edit]

Can the B.B.C polls that say Manchester are consider as the second city as impartial seeing that the polls where cast in Manchester? im going to delete it until some can answer this — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.98.211 (talkcontribs)

They weren't not carried out in Manchester - it was a national poll!!! Not wishing to be rude - but please stop proposing stupid ideas which are not based on fact! Stevo1000 (talk) 21:51, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
no they wernt please prove the claim with what your bagfull of sources. the only poll i have seen was a bbc one on oxford road with them handing out card with names of city printed on them, hardly even a poll — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.98.211 (talkcontribs)
Right you're just being thick now. Read the references! The first one is from 2002 which stated Manchester are the most popular choice for this second city tag. That was a nationwide survey independently conducted by Ipsos MORI - probably the leading survey company in the UK. The second one is another nationwide poll which was conducted in 2007 on behalf the BBC. It states in the report: "The survey of 1,000 people, commissioned by BBC Inside Out, also showed that in the 16-24 age group 58% said they believed Manchester to be more important and 38% said Birmingham was. The only age group where Birmingham came out top was in the 65 and over range where 48% considered Birmingham more important compared to 42% for Manchester."

Recent addition of text copied over from Manchester[edit]

I saw that recently, relevant text from the Manchester page was copied into this article; and then subsequently removed, commented as vandalism (which it wasn't). I replaced it as I think it seems like a good idea to move that text here. It still needs some work, but I think now the section in Manchester can be cut down in size, with this identified as the main article for that section. --David Edgar 16:42, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

9th Biggest Population?[edit]

Whoever has decided to but this sentence in has missed the point that Manchester is the centre of Greater Manchester, which houses the third biggest population in the UK. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Albatross89 (talkcontribs) 09:21, 14 November 2012 (UTC) Now amended. 86.12.129.2 (talk) 11:41, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bringing this page up to date in 2020[edit]

It seems a lot of this page is out of date and needs re-writing. There's mentions of Urbis (closed 2010) and the old Cornerhouse etc. There's been a lot of changes to the cultural scene in Manchester in the last 10 years. Perhaps mentions of new venues like the new Halle orchesta space in Ancoats, the new Factory, use of Mayfield depot for cultural events? 188.214.15.31 (talk) 09:36, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
