This revision from 4 October 2022 by Nillurcheier introduced an error for Morocco that is still uncorrected today: a 4.1 percentage instead of 2.1. There may have been other leftovers too, but this is what stood out in that currently a 37M for Afg is 2.0% while 36M for Mor is 4.1%. Unfortunately correcting to the earlier 2.1 still leaves a discrepancy, presumably due to updated demographics diverging from what was used to calculate the % column, but at least it'd be much closer and somewhat acceptable. Ah, it's because that 36M should've been 37,930,989 (99% of the total pop of 38,314,130), then the 2.1 makes sense. -- 188.25.167.21 (talk) 16:27, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Source is the fact that the linked revision has changed the perfectly good (back then) values
|38,314,130 |37,930,989 |99 |2.1
into the nonsensical
|38,314,130 |35,930,989 |95 |4.1
... note that 95% of 38,314,130 is 36,398,423½ so the value 35,930,989 doesn't make any sense, especially with it keeping the final 6 digits. The 95 has been corrected in the 2 years since then, but the 4.1 has not. 188.25.167.21 (talk) 00:57, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So, according to that table Indonesia has 242,700,000 muslims who are 11.7% of all muslims and Pakistan has 233,000,000 who are 11.79% of muslims. Total nonsense. This is happening because instead of doing the division ourselves here for the table, wikipedians are taking numbers and percentages from different sources or different years, causing a total nonsense. 12qwas (talk) 15:32, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The number of Muslims in Iran and the percentage is incorrect (in the table under the section "Countries"), even according to the source cited in its row. The percentage of Muslims in Iran is 98-99% (according to the cited source and other sources), but the number written is 50%, which is blatantly incorrect. 192.76.8.86 (talk) 02:02, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Charliehdb (talk) 10:16, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Already done - someone had randomly changed numbers from the table. Undone now. ObserveOwl 🎄 (talk) 02:12, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
