the return to the basics of solidarity and sound mind, enough with frivolity and wimsy. after years of contemplating the who's who and whats what to no discovery or too late to bring solidarity of sound unity through the introduction of the european community and the reverting back to the old mappings of the old glamor of the ballrooms and chandeliers with open arms and straight forward realness of the times reflecting on the history of discovery over the waters of the oceans and new lands now lost but found again in a new brighter light of the older views remembering the old capital and the dys of the riding of the houses in gallent display of acheivement as we accept that which was given to us the green of the three and the ring newly Fashioned Form. No need to change the names and run with the new name but do plan to state each individually in reverse letter order for the new millenium. year 2022

I think that there is a tad too much namedropping of organizations and buildings in the introductory section. They are not essential to presenting the topic, and, in any case, they might be circunvented by a generic statement backed up by a secondary source. Do you agree on a trimming?--Asqueladd ( talk) 13:29, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
This page says that: The King of Spain, the country's head of state, has his official residence in the Zarzuela Palace. That confused me - I though the Royal Palace on Calle de Bailén was the official one.
The Zarzuela Palace page says that: the Zarzuela Palace is the residence and working offices of the reigning monarch of Spain, although the official residence of the Spanish royal family is the Royal Palace of Madrid. The Zarzuela Palace is on the outskirts of Madrid.
As others might be confuused too, I added that distinction to this page, taking the information directly from the Zarzuela Palace page. I phrased it as:
'The Zarzuela Palace, on the outskirts of Madrid, is the residence and working offices of the reigning monarch of Spain ( King Felipe VI), although the official residence of the Spanish royal family is the Royal Palace of Madrid.'
I also added line breaks to the section, to distinguish the information about royal, presidential and parliamentary buildings. I didn't change the words.
Someone reverted my edit immediately. Does anyone else consider my edit to be no clear improvement?

Madrid isn’t cold enough anymore, to be designated as cold semi arid https://www.mindat.org/climate-BSk.html דולב חולב ( talk) 09:48, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
@ Uness232 Even though there are areas of the Athens Metropolitan Area that are classified as hot semi-arid, the city center is Mediterranean, something that does not occur in Madrid, since the center of Madrid is cold semi-arid. Most of the Madrid metropolitan area is cold semi-arid, while in Athens it is Mediterranean. In the article, it specifically refers to the city's climate and not its metropolitan area, since for the latter there is the article of Climate of Madrid. Farell37 ( talk) 15:11, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
