Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.

List of countries and dependencies by population
I see that you have been doing a number of updates to the List of countries and dependencies by population, which is fine. Given the large amount of data content from so many different sources, we definitely need more fresh eyes to keep the content up to date.

I must ask you, however, to read carefully the section 'Method' in the article. There you will se that (for this article specifically) we are using the most up-to-date estimates or projections by the national census authority, where available. Only if no national data are available, we use data from the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs. There is actually a separate article giving the UN DESA numbers: List of countries by population (United Nations). So keep up your good work with updating the article, but please refrain from using UN data as long as national data are available.

Just a small detail: When you enter the population numbers, it is not necessary to put in commas to separate the number groups. This is done automatically. If you put in 123456, it will come out as 123,456. No harm done, since both inputs will come out correctly, but it is a tiny bit simpler, and it has some advantages for the editing process. Happy editing, and regards! T*U (talk) 08:00, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
