The designation of famous cities is primarily based on the page view statistics of Wikipedia and mention rates of cityquiz.io. Since the capital city, municipality, and the island itself often share the same Wikipedia entry for a Greek island, the view counts for these three categories for all the islands have been combined by taking the maximum value. The Wikipedia view counts for some island cities may be relatively higher compared to others.
