climate

[edit]

Baguio is not tropical monsoon climate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KeYstoller (talkcontribs) 07:24, January 22, 2021 (UTC)

According to the most recent climate data and the Köppen climate classification criteria, Baguio is tropical monsoon because the mean temperature in the coolest month is just above 18 °C (64 °F). For it to be Cwb, at least one month has to have a mean temperature between −3 to 18 °C (27 to 64 °F) (provided it meets the other criteria for a Cwb climate). Basically, a borderline Am/Cwb which is the correct way to describe the climate. It's wrong to state it is Cwb if it contradicts the data Ssbbplayer (talk) 18:47, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Change the name to "Baguió", with an accent. According to the Census of the Philippine Islands from 1903 published by the American congress just after US occupation of the country, the city's name uses an accent denoting stress on the letter 'O'.

If it can't be done, I would suggest to use the accented variant to denote the Spanish name of the city in the etymology section using the reference. 181.64.13.143 (talk) 04:00, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

At least could you include the accented name in the etymology section for the Spanish name? --181.64.13.143 (talk) 20:21, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That source is 118 years old, and I doubt that anyone since has used an accent mark on the "o". The city government doesn't use it (https://www.baguio.gov.ph/about-baguio-city); neither does Britannica (https://www.britannica.com/place/Baguio); neither does WorldAtlas (https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/biggest-cities-in-the-philippines.html). For that matter, neither do any of the many Filipinos I know, although of course that's not a reliable source. Dgndenver (talk) 01:58, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
