Energy and Science + Technology Sections

Previously, the "Energy" and "Science and Technology" sections were removed, "Energy and Technology information can go in Economics section." In which case, the content was re-added. However, this was removed citing "vandalism?" Assistance please.. Twillisjr (talk) 02:54, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The information from technology and energy can be included into the economics section as long as it is properly cited. Subsections are not necessary. "Vandalism" is mentioned as several prior warnings were already given for this to be considered a WP:GF edit. Please use your sandbox (User:Twillisjr/sandbox) for test edits.

Peruvians apparently speaking "Klingon." Possible page vandalism?

"The Peruvian population consists of 69 llamas and one very lonely redditor. The main spoken language is Klingon, although a significant number of Peruvians speak l33t or other chatspeak languages. This mixture of pop culture has resulted in a wide diversity of lolcats in fields such as art, memes, cuisine, literature, and music."

As amusing as this was to read, I'm thinking maybe this isn't the correct tone for a Wikipedia article. At least, not without some citations to back this up.--dkamouflage 18:00, 17 May 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dkamouflage (talkcontribs)

We have more than 69 llamas, and we have also alpacas and vicunas, whose wool is very expensive in European markets and we are very proud of it. Also, we don't speak Klingon, we speak Quechua, a native language. Very few countries in the world can show population speaking their own native language (especially in Latin America, only Paraguay) our language is spoken in Bolivia, Ecuador and Argentina, so those countries also speak Klingon, I mean Quechua.

Ethnicity section missing in the top-right box for Peru

Other South American countries have an ethnicity section whereas Peru does not. Here's what it should have: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/pe.html

Ethnic groups: Amerindian 45%, mestizo (mixed Amerindian and white) 37%, white 15%, black, Japanese, Chinese, and other 3%

Languages: Spanish (official) 84.1%, Quechua (official) 13%, Aymara (official) 1.7%, Ashaninka 0.3%, other native languages (includes a large number of minor Amazonian languages) 0.7%, other 0.2% (2007 Census)

Religions: Roman Catholic 81.3%, Evangelical 12.5%, other 3.3%, unspecified or none 2.9% (2007 Census) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:15C0:66A3:2:21A:4DFF:FE40:38FF (talk) 07:01, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Numerous statistics exist about this ethnicity, all with varying results. Due to the sensibility of the subject an unreliable data, this article does not present the ethnic group numbers. Regards.--MarshalN20 | Talk 16:41, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
