State Religion

edit

An IP is persistantly adding "state religion" in the pie chart section. I argued that statistics is the wrong please to mention the legal status of a religion. But the IP does not stop to revert. Any comments? --Nillurcheier (talk) 08:31, 25 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Pictures of one religion in another

edit

Assalaamu Alaikum and Good Day.
Pictures and photos of 1 religion is showing in another religion.
This may create:
a) confusion for those who do not much about the country b) controversy Improvement required
e.g- Keeping the photos horizontally in one line. Verycuriousboy (talk) 09:43, 29 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in Religion in Bangladesh

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Religion in Bangladesh's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Religion":

  • From Religion in Austria: "Religionsbekenntnis". AEIOU. Retrieved 22 May 2009.
  • From Religion in India: "Religion". Office of the Registrar General & Census Commissioner, India. Retrieved 6 January 2021.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 01:40, 6 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Population by religion: numbers don't add up

edit

The numbers of the table in the article, see below, don't add up, there are millions missing! The percentage of Muslims according this table would be 88.55%, not 91.04% as claimed in the diagram in the article, see below. When you add up the numbers of the table, the result indicates a total population of 164,184,180 which with 150,360,405 Muslims would mean 91,58% Muslims. This is closer to the numbers in the diagram, but still different. The given links don't lead to sources. This whole thing is a big mess! -Attallah (talk) 15:01, 8 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

One source, The Dhaka Tribune, took very long to load. The population according to this source was 165,158,616 in Juli 2022, about a million more than the addition of the numbers of the table, which is 164,184,180. -Attallah (talk) 15:49, 8 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
