60% smaller is a meaningless statement, it's either 60% of the size or 40% of the size. 78.146.141.153 (talk) 23:46, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ - while '60% smaller' can only possibly mean 40% of the size, I have altered the wording for clarity. Tollens (talk) 01:38, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Since when does any country on the planet define itself in reference to the percentage it is bigger or smaller than another? That sentence  comes across as a pointless  willy measuring exercise at best. 109.78.145.59 (talk) 19:53, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * These aren't countries, they're islands. It's fairly common to compare sizes of geographical entities. WaggersTALK  10:24, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Shouldnt be "40 percent" instead of "40 per cent" 2601:285:8000:1C8:2009:7344:160A:B17F (talk) 15:19, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
 * No, "per cent" is correct. Put it down to WP:ENGVAR if you like - "percent" might be ok too but there's no reason to change it. 50% means 50 items for every 100 items, "100" is simply changed to "cent" so it becomes "50 per cent"; it doesn't suddenly become a single word.

Change the population count to 65,034,142 as that is the new data taken from the England and Wales Census 2021 and Scotland’s 2022 Census. Isitreallyharry (talk) 18:38, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

Is there a competition to shove the now archaic term Brytish isles into every single article in Wikipedia?
Wikipedia really needs to take a good look at the use of archaic geopolitical language being pushed by a small number of its editors 31.187.2.87 (talk) 11:16, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
