Vertical axis variation
I just noticed that and  use different vertical scales. I'm sure you didn't intend it, but when these are placed side-by-each, as at Abortion, it is quite misleading to any readers who fail to note that difference. This kind of juxtaposition is a classic from Huff's How to lie with statistics. Would it be possible to either standardize them on one scale or make the difference more noticable? Thank you.

 * These are charts of prevalence over time, so the absolute value of the vertical axis doesn't matter. The charts are of different countries with an order of magnitude different population, so they aren't comparable anyway. — Omegatron (talk) 01:55, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
