Orphaned references in Refugee crisis

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Refugee crisis's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 07:20, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Political Responses

Hello! I am a university student working on a project to contribute to Wikipedia and I'm interested in adding to this section. I've found a bunch of great sources on non-institutional responses to the migrant crisis, especially refugee squats established by leftist groups in various European cities and other solidarity work. Please let me know if you think there is somewhere else this would be more appropriately located or if I should go ahead. I have been unable to locate information about specifically these kinds of activities and they have become quite prevalent! A symmetrics (talk) 06:34, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mention Ukrainian refugee crisis or should that be it’s own page

Over half a million Ukrainians (660,000 and increasing) have fled towards Europe, creating Europe’s largest refugee wave since 2015.

This deserves mention either here or on its own page.

And it has been described as a refugee crisis on mainstream news, https://amp.economist.com/europe/2022/02/28/a-new-refugee-crisis-has-come-to-europe, https://inews.co.uk/news/world/ukraine-refugee-crisis-warm-welcome-flee-russia-invasion-light-darkness-1487421/amp Solidarityandfreedom (talk) 17:53, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Should also then mention the crises in Ethiopia, Yemen, Afghanistan etc etc. I would argue this page is not only about the effects on Europe. dh74g3y (talk) 09:53, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of the term "refugee crisis"

Think it's important to have a history of the term refugee crisis, I would think it only became prominent post 2015? dh74g3y (talk) 09:51, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is a contradiction in this paragraph.

In 2016, an estimated 362,000 refugees crossed the Mediterranean Sea in attempts to reach Europe due to dangers in their home countries.[3] In the first half of 2017, over 105,000 refugees and migrants entered Europe through the Mediterranean.[3] Between 2014 and 2021, at least 158,000 people tried to cross the Mediterranean towards Europe and at least 22,845 people died during the attempt.[4]

If there were 362,000 people attempting to cross the Mediterranean to Europe in 2016 alone, then there is no way only 158,000 tried between 2014 and 2021.
