	You shouldn't hide the questions, when I missed one I just quit because I didn't feel like re-answering all of them.

	Too many duplicates and too much time.

	TwiGz28:	Aug 16th, 2010 at 21:00 GMT	1 point
	Agreed on both.

	I'd like to see your source, because I'm not sure of some of your answers. For instance, I seem to remember that the Missouri is the longest and the Columbia the widest of US rivers.

	bball4:	Aug 16th, 2010 at 21:34 GMT	-1 points
	the missouri is actualy not the longest although the mississippi is in turn sometimes called the mississippi-missouri river

	@bball4: Not according to the US government- Missouri River: 2,540 miles, Mississippi River: 2,340 miles. http://ga.water.usgs.gov/edu/riversofworld.html Also you should clarify what 'largest' means in terms of mountains- highest or longest.

	You need to list sources for all the information, not just city populations, or you're going to get a lot of arguments about it.

	The Amazon is wider than the Rio de la Plata at their widest points by 10 miles (150 for Amazon to the Plata's 140). For cities, you need to specify city proper vs metro area. When you say 'lake', can you specify volume, area or depth too. Caspian wins on the first 2 but Baikal wins on the third. Also, you should specify whether you're including brackish water as strictly speaking a sea isn't a lake. Also, please accept 'caspian' as well as 'caspian sea'. I've definitely seen several rankings that put New York ahead of Mexico City, so you specify how you're ranking that. For mountain range, you need to specify that it's length you're looking at, and also that you mean on dry land, as there are longer submarine mountains. Hope that helps!

	You need to specify you're looking for metros and not city proper. If city proper was the case, Shanghai is the most populous city in the world.

Comment below threshold: show it

	Oh wow, you're right: things are much easier when you can just make stuff up because you don't feel like looking it up. Also, unless you're 11 years old, you shouldn't be saying something is 'gay'. Unless you're talking about your boyfriend, because he totally is.

	i looked everything up in more than one source, and each source told me something different so i stayed at one source oh really well i know for a fact that your mom is straight as does everyone else in the world

	steelwolf:	Aug 17th, 2010 at 17:47 GMT	2 points
	You need to work on your language skills. "Largest populated country in the world" means largest country that is populated (ie Russia). Not at all the same as what you're trying to ask. Same with all the others like that.

	bball4:	Aug 19th, 2010 at 04:08 GMT	-1 points
	that is the worst argument ever you are just picking out whatever you can to argue largest populated means largest number of population maybe there should be a "spell everything out" part of sporcle so that you can understand it

	cuendillar:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 21:45 GMT	1 point
	I agree with steelwolf, I noticed it too. It's far better to write "country by population", which is what you mean.
