Tendentious phrasing in Demographics/Migration
The term "illegal immigrants" is used to describe refugees.
Gap 1949 to 1965/7
There appears to be a gap in the history and I wonder if someone who knows the period could fill it. Thank you.
The main chart / table on the right is consciously erroneous on religion
- Religion: majority: Eastern Orthodoxy (official), minority: Islam, Catholicism, Irreligion, Atheism, Others
- Irreligion is: religious indifference, agnosticism and atheism
- Atheism is to deny that personhood can occur without an environment (god before creation), that it's more fundamental than the Universe; and that it can be cosmogenous (the person-god supposedly created the Universe).
- Don't mix the wider non-theism with explicit conscious atheism. Some people claim that all religions fight against the generic irreligion and vice versa. That's wrong. We don't focus on forging gerrymandering majorities. If you believe that theists fight against non-theists merge also all religions as one; it's unfair to merge only all nontheists as one (you haven't done it, but Greeks merge all non theists as one, but they don't statistically merge all religions as religion without specific details). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:587:4100:F800:F438:E7DC:ABB6:BA1 (talk) 05:10, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
Wikipedia is NOT the Constitution of Greece
As religion entries, we note all the religions, because Wikipedia is NOT the Constitution of Greece. For the religion explicitly recognized in the Greek we write (official) as we do with other countries. Greece is not superior than other countries to enforce Nazism on Wikipedia because of some Greek users. We add all the information; majority, minority. Nazis love to lie. If Wikipedia is the Greek Constitution someone has to elaborate on it; otherwise we respect the rules of Wikipedia and not the rules of the Constitution of Greece. Even the Constitution of Greece respects other religions (but mostly avoids to be specific). The Greek Constitution doesn't mention that is should be used as an encyclopedic template; thus even according to strict right policy, religious racism isn't constitutional. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a02:587:4100:f800:f438:e7dc:abb6:ba1 (talk • contribs) 05:10, April 3, 2019 (UTC) |

- Hmm, that's a difference of less than 100 km2 from the figure we quote from the CIA Handbook, 131,957 km2. No idea by what criterion we would prefer either of the two figures. The difference might well be due to trivial measurement differences such as different ways of calculating shorelines etc. Fut.Perf. ☼ 08:23, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
