This list, as a standalone article, fails WP:N guidelines, and would be better suited as a subsection of the Islam in Europe article. This type of listing doesn't make sense as a separate article. There's also no reason for this list to only be covering the European Union rather than Europe as a whole.

In addition, this article is in a terrible state despite years of existence. Most of the items on this list are uncited. Much of the items that ARE cited use information from outdated or inappropriate sources. For example, books (especially decade-old ones) generally aren't a reliable source of information for demographic data.

I propose this article be deleted and a new, higher quality list be inserted into the Islam in Europe article. 296cherry (talk) 18:07, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

• Speedy delete. This has the hint of a WP:CONTENTFORK from Islam in Europe, and the article's contents are best amalgamated into that entry or "Islam in [country]" articles. I'm still shocked by this sentence: some [figures in this article are] estimating the percentage of Muslims by using the percentage of Asians in those cities. IgnatiusofLondon (talk) 16:17, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

  Agreed, none of the statistics in this list are consistent in how they are produced. Some use "percentage of Arabic speakers", others use "percentage of Asians". What a disaster. 296cherry (talk) 17:32, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
