You are simply on a shared IP that is being used by other people to vandalise. I tried reblocking to allow you to edit, if it doesn't work, replace the unblock template. Sasquatch t|c 20:46, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For anyone else trying to fix this: the block on the ip User:213.243.30.8 was set with the "block anonymous editing only" flag, so I don't know what else to try. Mango juice^talk 16:28, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yea, the IP is clearly set, there's no autoblocks... Nothing else we can do. Sasquatch t|c 23:38, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

List of countries by population[edit]

I reverted your edits because the list is taken from a single UN source at a single moment in time, to provide comparisons among countries. Updated census figures can be placed on the page for individual countries. - DavidWBrooks 11:53, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article uses the UN propsectus, which includes the entire island - that's why the Turkish population of Cyrpus is included under Cyprus, not under Turkey. - DavidWBrooks 16:49, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please sign your messages, by the way, so people can respond here easily. Type four tildes and your signature and the time will appear automatically. The UN prospectus includes countries that are not in the UN. Are you sure about the population of the Greek portion of the island? The CIA lists the entire island, including the Turkish portion, as being over 800,000 - which is why I said this chart appears to include the Turkish portion. - DavidWBrooks 11:18, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So do you think that the current Cyrus figure on this article includes the Turkish portion, or not? - DavidWBrooks 12:08, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't want to make the change because, as the article states, it uses ONLY the numbers from the UN report; if we start putting in changes based on individual cnesues, it'll be a mess. But the discrepancy between the numbers you say and the number in this article makes me uncertain whether the UN report actually includes the Turkish portion. If it doesn't, then the footnote is wrong. - DavidWBrooks 15:53, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
