 * That's fine, I can finally take a break. But this isn't the correct discussion tho. This was a report of me by Wddan. FrankCesco26 (talk) 13:11, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Ah, alright. So just for the record, I was referring to Administrators' noticeboard. De728631 (talk) 15:38, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

May 2018, religion in the UK
Is this you? I am quite sure it is, given the same geographic location and style (lowercase edit summary, grammatical errors). As I wrote in the talk page of the article, your justification for the removal ("or we add a chart for every survey or remove them all. we can't add charts for every survey we find in the internet") is based on the false assumption that the 2018 survey is random data found on the internet, when it is actually a study of two Catholic universities, St Mary's University, Twickenham and Institut Catholique de Paris, and is based on the European Social Survey, thus it represents excellent data. Moreover, it represents a different section of the population (the youth) and thus it represents data similarly to tables which show the % of religion adherents among different age groups in other articles (this, for example).

Most articles are in a very bad state, with poor, incomplete, unorganised, unsourced content, content sourced with random unreliable sources from the internet, often written in poor language. The last thing that these articles need is the removal of well-sourced content.--Wddan (talk) 15:18, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes it is me, I though I was logged in my account. I only said that the data is ok, but it doesn't deserve to be in the pie chart in a section of only list of surveys,as there are other surveys in the same section and we can't make a pie for every of them.FrankCesco26 17:05, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

May 2018, language pie chart
This removal was not a "retribution" (probably you meant "retaliation") for anything, and I actually was thanked by another user (Gabriel HM) when I removed it from the main article "France". Articles shoul not be overcrowded with pie charts.--Wddan (talk) 19:31, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

Also, please use Turquouse next to DodgerBlue when there are no more than two shades of light blue, since DeepSkyBlue is extremely close to DodgerBlue.--Wddan (talk) 19:31, 7 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Ok than add a line chart for it, don't leave the article without a visual representation of the data. DeepSkyBlue is the perfect for the "Other Christians". Turquaise is too similar to the Honeydew.FrankCesco26 (talk) 19:49, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't know from what kind of device you are navigating, but Turquoise is a shade of light blue while Honeydew is near to white. DeepSkyBlue is not "perfect" if there are just two shades of light blue, and it is too similar to DodgerBlue. And no, I will not add a line chart. By the same principle according to which you have been removing pie charts from the "religion in..." articles, you can leave just the phrase to present the survey.--Wddan (talk) 19:54, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Then find a different shade of blue that isn't too whitish. Edit: this shade should be good: #8AB9F1 FrankCesco26 (talk) 19:56, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

Please avoid personal opinions when writing both articles and edit summaries. Per Talk:Religion in Bulgaria.--Wddan (talk) 09:59, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Sure, but please accept other people's contributions. FrankCesco26 (talk) 12:48, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Sample size
re Religion in France -- 1000 cases is quite standard for a nationwide sample. That gives percentages like 40 percent = X, 10 percent = Y and 2% = Z. in this case IPSOS did not use subsamples, with higher margins of error. So its subsample of Y's and Z's are too small to be useful. However the overall full sample percentages are valid. In terms of public opinion polls around the world, "many surveys usually aim for at least 1000 cases" according to Rjensen (talk) 13:46, 2 March 2019 (UTC)


 * I mean, that survey would be relevant if it represented the whole population but I still don't get why should we keep it in the article if it is based only to the online population. It's out of context. There are plenty of other surveys which are based on a higher sample and refer to the total population (for istance IFOP, Eurobarometer, Pew Research Center and so on) which would fit the article well. FrankCesco26 (talk) 14:16, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
 * they use internet users so they can compare different countries. If you have a better sample for the whole French population, then add it in--don't just erase information.  by the way for a sample size of 1000 out of millions of people, if group Z = 2%  the 95 percent confidence level is that the true proportion is between one percent and three percent.

Religion in Spain: PESOCCAA-corrected study?
Hello, Frank. Please, would you be so kind to properly reference (link to) that exact PESOCCAA-corrected study in Religion in Spain? I'm not finding it anywhere in the list of studies currently referenced or elsewhere. Best regards, --MaeseLeon (talk) 23:24, 11 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi, the link in the source redirects to the CIS databank where the SPSS dataset including the PESOCCAA can be downloaded. You download it clicking on the national dataset (the first redirect) and then on the "Fichero_datos" in the following page. The PESOCCAA is a specific weight of only this survey (called macrobarometro since it's based on a large number of observations, around 18.000). This weight consists in reporting the true population data into the respondents, allowing us to have a more equal representation of the respondents, that generally are concentrated into urban areas and underrepresented in the countryside and less urbanized regions. Normal CIS studies use a weight based only on the sex and the ageof the respondent, due to small number of observations (roughly 2000) the population weight cannot be used for these small surveys. Therefore, the macrobarometer with the PESOCCAA allows us to have the most reliable sets of data nationally but also on a provincial level; and it's the same I have used in the table depicting the religious affiliation by autonomous community. -FrankCesco26 (talk) 14:01, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
