[edit] How in the world?
How in the world does a place with a population of two hundred people get called a "city"?! Mathmo Talk 08:44, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

- "Maharishi Vedic City, Iowa, USA incorporated on July 21, 2001"!
- a) The designations such as City, Town, District etc are what is given by the govt [State or Central] and population is not the only criteria for that.
- b) "Maharishi Vedic City" is still the name of the city even if it declared as a village sometime in the future. Just like Rhode-Island is not an independent island or a country, but its a state [that is its designation] in USA.
- c) If population was the criteria, most cities would exist in Indian and China and most other 'cities' woiuld boil down to villages and communities :) !!Bheeshma 13:57, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- This needs further discussion--it is not a city & oes not claim to be, its the name for one of the offshoots of Maharishi University of Management. I think it's worthless as a concept but an article on this has religious implications and I think needs discussion. I am about to send it for AfD. DGG 02:30, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

- In the AFD we've established it is recognized as a city by the state of Iowa and the US Census. --Dhartung | Talk 06:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

- Thanks, Dhartung. I wonder why DGG was so certain it wasn't a city. TimidGuy 13:00, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
