This is the page to modify if you have questions about the structure of the page, aren't sure where to put something, or think that something is just flaky or wrong...
Dropscone wrote: The paragraph religion was misleading as such : Those three / four religions were not adopted by everybody, and reducing a religion to the vegetarian issue is unclear and clumsy.
- Vegetarianism is not the only issue, as is clear by the way it is presented... do some research of your own, please. As I said in a private message, Rastafarianism became very popular from at least the early to mid 1970s and is indeed associated with a vegetarian diet. I'm not sure you realize just how countercultural a non-meat diet is... though modern day France being the most carnivorous country I've ever visited, I guess you could imagine if you've ever tried it (though in fact here at least when you are poor it is easy with so many markets)
- "clumsy" is not a diplomatic word, regardless of whether you are "right" or "wrong". And who are you to say what is clear and unclear? I have begun to be a bit suspicious of your views on this matter.
Dropscone wrote: Populations / migrations change : those numbers are unsourced. Where do they come from and what do they describe ?
- The source is the US census web site. Do you cite your sources? (in general, not in your extensive (:whistling:) contributions to this page)
Dropscone wrote: You mean Population growth...not population change.
- OK, were I writing for an academic journal I might perhaps talk about negative population growth I suppose, but in an informal context, population change seemed sufficiently clear
Dropscone wrote: Demographic change is not reduced to quantitative changes.
- I really don't want to waste time looking up demographics until you've told me what you mean... for me it is that standard word for quantitative (statistical) information about who makes up a population. What do YOU think it means, Dropscone? (I don't deny you may well be right :)
