According to the article both 1991 and 2011 census are disputed, the first being boycotted by Albanians the second by Serbians. In an article called Demographics of Kosovo it is an exaggeration to add the full table of a disputed census -- it would be fine on articles called 2011 or 1991 Population Census for Kosovo. I mean, there are a lot of sentences in the article that state facts in an undisputed manner (for instance ethnicity percentages) and the size of tables with exact numbers imply accuracy on the subject that is clearly not there, not when other parts of the article state clearly that this numbers are not to be trusted. Now I am not telling that this census does not deserve an extensive part of the article, but the current size would be better moved in a new article.

In every country or people group, people born decades earlier eventually die, meanwhile in Kosovo you have decades long birth numbers between 40 and 50 000, but decades later only 9 -8 000 people die. Its unnatural, while birth rate is dropping from nearly 60 000 in late 80s and early 90s, to today's 22 000, death rate stays same as in 50s and 40s. In every other demographic chart you can see that by those numbers death rate in Kosovo would be between 40 000 and 50 000 people in last decade. If only 8-9 000 people die it would mean that the population of Kosovo is more akin to 200-300 000 people and not 1.7 or 1.8 million.

An updated population pyramid of Kosovo is needed for this article to be consistent with other articles about Demographics of countries.Bird Vision (talk)

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 Demographics of Kosovo'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 "Small-Arms-Survey":

• From
  NATO
  -led Kosovo Force (KFOR).
• From
  NATO-led Kosovo Force
  (KFOR).
• From
  NATO-led Kosovo Force
  (KFOR).

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. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT⚡ 13:06, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
