- I'll take up this review. Will post my initial set of comments soon —Vensatry (Ping) 13:12, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
Lead
- "Allahabad is the seventh most populous city in the state and the thirty-sixth most populous city in India" needs "As of ..."
- "In 2011, it was ranked the world's 130th fastest growing city" – unsourced
- Page nos. needed for ref #8
- "The city's original name – Prayaga, or "place of offerings" – comes from its position at the sacred union of the rivers Ganges, Yamuna and Saraswati": Sentence is unclear. How do you correlate "place of offerings" with "sacred union".
- The fact that Allahabad is the second-oldest city in India is unsourced and present only at the lead
- I'm not sure what you mean by "plays a central role in the Hindu scriptures"
- Link Doab
- Area of 63.07 km2 is not mentioned anywhere in the article except lead
- Allahabad City Council – ditto
- You say that the city is the second-oldest in India while infobox mentions that it was founded in 1583 AD
- Area of metropolitan city equals 5,424 km2 – not true, it's the area of the district
Etymology
- The section is too small. Perhaps consider merging it with History if it can't be expanded further
Demographics
- "Provisional data suggest a density of 1,087 people per km2 in 2011, compared to 901 in 2001" pertains to district data
- The following sentences are either unsourced or incorrectly sourced
- The last para of the section is sourced to "Provisional Population Totals, Census of India 2011; Urban Agglomerations/Cities having population 1 lakh and above" which no way conveys the information presented in the article.
- I've not fully read the article. After going through a few sections, it feels like criterion 1 and 2 are not met. The prose is weak in many places, and many facts need to satisfy WP:V. The article needs to have a thorough copy-edit by a GOCE member. For now, I'm stopping my review and will have a look at it tomorrow. —Vensatry (Ping) 12:35, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
