There have been more recent reports suggesting that the death toll was closer to 50,000, and that the inflated initial reports were due to either incompetence (by journalists) or official exaggeration (in order to boost overseas aid). Why is there no reference to this? The stated death toll is clearly excessive.[[User:Royalcourtier|Royalcourtier]] ([[User talk:Royalcourtier|talk]]) 02:13, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia's "Demographics of Haiti" page shows not the slightest uptick in deaths in Haiti in 2010. It would be nice if one or the other (or both) of these pages were fixed.[[Special:Contributions/128.187.112.7|128.187.112.7]] ([[User talk:128.187.112.7|talk]]) 22:14, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
