Statistics by county
editI've added a template for statistics by county within the article. I created the template outside the article itself here. However, I couldn't get the data to populate within the article by using the same methodology as the United States article. Anyway, the data is within the article, so I've accomplished that much. However, if someone with more experience can clean up the formatting, that would be appreciated. Stylteralmaldo (talk) 13:50, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
Tilted map in infobox?
editIs it just me or is the map in the infobox tilted leftwards? Could someone correct this? Sahitana (talk) 01:53, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- I noticed that too. The creator of the file is c:User:Effeietsanders, you might want to leave them a message if it isn't addressed for a while. JTP (talk • contribs) 02:42, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
Chart(s) of deaths by county
editThe Wisconsin DHS shows a nice chart of deaths reported each day for the whole state here. The Washington Post has something similar here for the whole state. These are great, but I've been wishing for similar charts by county, so I can see what the trends are in my local area - independent of what's happening in Milwaukee, e.g.
The Wisconsin DHS makes the data available, but not in chart form, so this evening I took their death data for Milwaukee County and hand-constructed a chart in the "Statistics by County" section. Do you think this belongs here? If so, how about a similar chart for each of Wisconsin's 72 counties? It seems like a lot of detail for a Wikipedia page, but the trend shown by each graph would be truly useful, and I'm not finding county-level graphs anywhere else. If we agree that this is worthwhile, I should be able to write a script to construct charts for the 72 counties from the DHS's CSV file. --Jeff the quiet (talk) 05:50, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
Bar chart data
editThe bar chart data includes numbers for every day of the week. Beginning on May 29, 2021, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services stopped reporting numbers on the weekends. Rather than repeating Friday's numbers for Saturday and Sunday (and giving a false impression, in my opinion), I think Saturday and Sunday should be left empty. As a result, Monday's numbers would not have a percentage increase, since the 3-day increase is not comparable to the other one-day increases. This is the way the bar chart is displayed for Iowa, which stopped providing daily numbers on July 22, 2021, and Michigan, which stopped providing daily numbers in on July 3, 2021. --Spiffy sperry (talk) 20:43, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
