I think that the article would be useful, provided that it's well done.
Primary, it should cover all Europe, otherwise it is "list of Balkanian cities".
Secondary, the cities should really be ranked from the most elevated to the less one.

Since several cities show quite a variation of elevation the question arises which value to use for the ranking. I suggest to use the lowest value which would place many harbour towns alike. In case of two cities with equal lowest elevation the second value of the highest spot of the city, if provided, could make the difference. After that, alphabetical order "ascending" ;-) --Manorainjan (talk) 12:38, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This just seems to be a list of some randomly chosen cities. There are plenty of cities not in the list. Either the list should include all European cities, which would be quite a few, or one could have a list with for instance European capitals by elevation. --Vitzque (talk) 15:01, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oddly there are places on this list that are not even towns, let alone cities. Agathoclea (talk) 16:55, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I agree.the article contains a lot of problems including a wrong system for choosing cities,another problem is that the page is uneditable. Chrisrabinson (talk) 16:40, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
