Please stay calm and civil while commenting or presenting evidence, and do not make personal attacks. Be patient when approaching solutions to any issues. If consensus is not reached, other solutions exist to draw attention and ensure that more editors mediate or comment on the dispute.

This article is written in British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus.

Bahrain was one of the Geography and places good articles, but it has been removed from the list. There are suggestions below for improving the article to meet the good article criteria. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.

Visualization

The Religion in Bahrain pie chart label says 69.7% are Muslim, but the pie chart itself looks more like 50%. Any idea why? The Futurist Corporation (talk) 12:53, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's rendering a horizontal and vertical line which shouldn't be there, but the green is still clearly covering nearly three-quarters of the pie. CMD (talk) 13:32, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So many men

This article and the main article on demography show the huge excess of adult men in Bahrain, but say nothing about this in words. Are the non-citizens, the temporary residents all male? In the ages below 20, the gender split is as one might expect, more less evenly split. Then above 20, there is an excess of men. I do not know the nation, and cannot find any commentary on this imbalance. - - Prairieplant (talk) 16:24, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Prairieplant: The main reason appears to be foreign workers. Page 7 of this demographic report provides detail. Feel free to include this source in the relevant articles and add further context for readers about the gender disparity. Hope this helps.
