Old contrib in Demographics of BiH article[edit]

iHola Diotime!
Well, that sentence was a tipfeler (an error). What was ment, that in the period of 1945-91 (when Bosnia and Herzegovina was part of Socialistic Federal Republic of Yugoslavia) percentage of Croats fell by a quarter of its previous number (it was 23,9% in 1948 and it fall to the 17,4% in the 1991). I refrased the sentence, but any improvment is welcomed:)

You guys are such jokers... or do not know english well enough to describe that what you are talking about is the share of croats to the total population. As we can see, the official census numbers show an increase of croats, almost every decade. Have fun pondering what you guys did wrong, with this data...

614,123 in 1948
654,229 in 1953
711,666 in 1961
772,491 in 1971
758,140 in 1981
760,852 in 1991

Let me repeat once again. Number of Croats fell in the relative ratio. From 23,9% to 17,4% due to higher imigration (perhaps even better natural rate in BiH muslims) than other nations. Relative ratio of BiH Serbs (percentiges) also fell. Their's absolute number hower increased. I don't know, Laz, but I think that my English prety well explains fall of the percentage by a quoter, wouldn't you think so?

Or I need to translate everything in Croatian, for you to comprehend ? :)--Čeha (razgovor) 19:45, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I was messing around, you guys said that the total number of croats fell... when in fact it is as you say not, the portion of them fell. I posted census data just now... their number increased a lot, in terms of the number of people, but in terms of portion, it is down. (LAz17 (talk) 02:21, 14 June 2009 (UTC)).[reply]

Not total number, percentage. You can see it in an original qoute: During the time of percentage of Croats fell Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia Croatian_percentage_in_Bosnian_municipalities_1971-1991 by more then a quater. here is the tipfeler, it should have been:

During the time of Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia percentage of Croats fell in BiH municipalities by more then a quater. As I said it is mostly due the high emigration of rates of BiH Croats (similar situation was with BiH Serbs, although their emigration rates were lower than Croatian ones). It is possible that BiH Bosniaks/Muslims also had much higher natural growth (higher natalitet), but I don't have exact numbers for that. Bosniak emigration rate was almost equal to zero, while Croatians (and Serbs) did emigrate in large numbers to SR republics of Croatia (or Serbia) and western europe... That is the main point of that fell in percentage. Serbs percentage fell from 44.3 to 31.4 which is about the same amount. 17.4 is 72.8% of 23.9 and 31.4 is 70.9% of 44.3. However most of the BiH Serbs settled in Vojvodina raising percentage of Serbs in it from 1/3 in 1918 to 2/3 in 2001. Bosniak percetnage on the other side grew by 42.3% from 30.7 in 1948 to 43.7 in 19991. --Čeha (razgovor) 21:14, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The (un)Australian moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, The (un)Australian, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 14:08, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
