Ranking numbering flaws

I get that the article updates constantly but I had to painstakingly correct the deeply flawed rankings of largest malls.[1] When someone adds a new entry to that list (of largest shopping malls), more likely than not, the entire numbering system also needs to be adjusted. Yet it appears some editors are somewhat lazy and couldn't be bothered to update the overall rankings entirely whenever they add a new entry. It would be nice to make sure that this article is not neglected in that area over time, and to be mindful of this issue. I Fixed it today but it is potentially likely to run into this issue in the future.49.186.113.228 (talk) 05:18, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why are there so many random mall facades in the top of the article?

Why are there so many random mall facades at the top of the article? Does one not suffice? Manhattia (talk) 08:37, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's what I'm wondering, especially since so many of them are of New Jersey. It seems to me the Mall of America would be more appropriate. --Coolcaesar (talk) 14:23, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've reduced it to two images, beginning with Mall of America. —ADavidB 14:45, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The gallery being removed:

Can anyone who read an article please explain why did one editor removed the gallery for being too harsh on mobile as a claim? I mean that it was removed, but one did not elaborate on why it was removed by one. Plus, that gallery is supposed to present these examples on what shopping malls definitely resemble in real life. But however, I added one photo on the gallery, same with many of these editors who add photos on the gallery. If one of them returned, can you please undo and add back the gallery to this article, so it can continually be added with photographs by other readers and editors? Thank you. So, let that sink in!

See WP:IG. This gallery was excessive and @Magnolia677 (and myself) were perfectly justified in removing it. There are already a large number of shopping mall interior and exterior images throughout the body of the article. All that is needed in this case to provide further images is a link to the appropriate Wikimedia Commons category - which is exactly what is present in the external links section. 10mmsocket (talk) 07:10, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cleveland Arcade

The Cleveland Arcade, the oldest shopping mall in the U.S (1890), and partially inspired by the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II (1877), really deserves a mention, and probably a photograph. Please take a look at its Wikipedia page. SteGenevieve (talk) 15:07, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ukranian nalls missing from ranking

There are multiple major malls in Ukraine that would be big enough to join the ranking. Furthermore the Blockbuster Mall is Europe's biggest. Makes no sense leaving it out. Refer to the article below. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_shopping_malls_in_Ukraine 2003:E3:5746:CB66:7D53:265E:7C18:7BA7 (talk) 18:47, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
