Minor detail I noticed: this article states that Glasgow has a flag and shows a picture for it.
However, being from Glasgow myself and never having seen nor heard of this flag previously, I checked with the Flag Institute and they've confirmed that the city doesn't have any flags registered with them.
As disappointing as that is. 2A02:C7C:D229:DE00:24F7:40FD:69FB:5B4F ( talk) 18:05, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
Hi, I found a lot of uncategorized images recently uploaded to commons with about 700 being in Glasgow and around [1] (all of them having location info) - zoom in to Glasgow. These images would need proper categorization. Anybody who wants to care? best -- Herzi Pinki ( talk) 10:30, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

i feel like this doesn't need to be it's own category along with History and Demographics, but im not sure where it would go. maybe somewhere in Culture but i'd like to hear other's thoughts Clydiee ( talk) 23:19, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I don't really edit Wikipedia often so forgive me if this is the wrong way to go about it, but at the top of the article it says that Glasgow has the third highest population out of UK cities, however the page that links to shows it's the fifth most populous UK city (and I don't even know if that's right because World Population Review says it's seventh, and there might be even more conflicting information out there). I'd love if someone who's savvier at this site than I am could double-check and/or correct this mistake. 172.56.105.180 ( talk) 04:15, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
