"Excluding research bases in antartica" --> Villa Las Estrellas isnt a research base. Its a civilian settlement.
RE: "Dentren (talk | contribs) (2,534 bytes) (Chuckarg33, the article is not written from the countries point of view and INE definition of city is as official as Cabo de Hornos municipalies claim, both are chilean authorities)"
Mate, chill. Hardly anyone could consider that little town/rural establishment/or Pueblo a City, really! Plus Cabo de Hornos is certainly a municipality because the country's leaders set it up and handle it that way. Really if you ignore what the country calls their own towns or how they classify their own urban settlements, well IMHO you are leaving out the most important bit of information.

By the way, its seems a wrong to me to have an article on 'southernmost settlements' and leave out all those in Antarctica, even if they are military bases, since we can't get anymore south than the south pole and they are certainly 'south' of us. And if the naval station on diego ramirez and the cabo hornos weather station are here it seems incorrect to leave out Villa Las Estrellas, Base Marambio et al , even if it were in a separate section in the table under 'Antarctica'? Is there now consensus for this? seems there was some when reading through the article above Chuckarg33 ( talk) 10:33, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
I believe that it hasn't worked as well as it would have if the article on 'Southernmost settlements' was merged into the 'southernmost city' article. This here has been done the other way around and it doesn't quite seem to click.
But I've gone through it to tidy it up a bit and added the reference for the PW population and so removed that tag. It needs though a new list on the settlements in antarctica which are definitely 'southernmost' Charlie ( talk) 13:30, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
Because no one has answered, I've attempted to be bold and moved the paragraph on the use of this "Southernmost city in the world" tourist slogan (and only a tourist slogan) to its own article because this article on "southernmost settlements" is more about the geographic fact involved.

All the difinitions of "settlement"** would include all permanent research stations of Antarctica. I think the exclusion of such stations is totally arbitrary, especially in the case of settlements like Villa Las Estrellas, in which many civils live and where you can find a church, a postal office, a bank, a school, and a library. Why this particular settlement is not a settlement?
