population? W h a t 'population'?

This 'article' is nothing but table of nations with some columns containing a smattering of disjointed references to various ethnic Jews, countries, etc. Does the editor of this article even know what a "population" is?

And what's this talk about a "pie chart"? There isn't any pie chart. JohndanR (talk) 17:36, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The heading should be changed to a List of Countries with the ethnicities of Jews in some of them. LDriver (talk) 12:59, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, it shouldn't; the unvandalised version ought to be restored. 116.255.16.38 (talk) 08:10, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There was an article swap so the pie chart is at Judaism by country now. Andre🚐 17:09, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

uhhh... @Guarapiranga reverted this page to the version right before the page swap by @Zsteve21, now the articles Judaism by country and Jewish population by country are almost identical...? ObserveOwl 🎄 (talk) 15:51, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

West Bank is labeled as part of Jordan in all tables listing Jewish population, implying West Bank is currently a territory of Jordan, while the United Kingdom has the additional label of "Britain" next to it. These are unnecessary and should be corrected. 2601:183:4281:26B0:D4D9:CE17:4E99:4748 (talk) 15:30, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done: Fixed the UK thing. I can't find any mention of the West Bank/Jordan Ultraodan (talk) 08:34, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 17 February 2025

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Jewish population by country. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

The Jewish population number in Canada is fabricated. The table says it's a 2024 stat, but it links to the 2016 Canadian census. Canada's census is done every 5 years, and the most recent one is from 2021. I suggest changing the citation to the 2021 census, changing the table to say "2021" not "2024", and revising the population to 335,295, as it says on the 2021 census.
