I'm aware of at least one Maldivian with a Christian name who says he's Christian -- how does this square with the article's statement that all Maldivians are Sunni Muslims? Johnleemk | Talk 15:31, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
{{POV}} template
As an anon I thought I'd better not actually remove it, but this bit:
"Strict adherence to Islamic precepts and close community relationships have helped keep crime low and under control."
is certainly not NPOV. 86.132.142.221 04:46, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Rewritten
The article has been rewritten from a strictly scientific (ethnological and sociological) point of view ommitting the propagandistic overtones.
Remove work with unknown copyright status
This site has three sections which have been entirely copied onto Wikipedia - Social Hierarchies, Marriage and Mortuary Rituals. The fact that the whole paragraphs have been copied constitutes a violation to Wikipedia itself, with or without Copyright breech --Maurice45 (talk) 17:42, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
- Furthermore, I have corrected the Ethnic Groups category. The people are principally a hybrid ethnic group, not a bunch of different ones --Maurice45 (talk) 16:19, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Conflicting information
In the first section of the article it says that the Maldives has one of the highest fertility rate in the world, but in the very next section it says that Maldives's TFR was 1.9, which means that the average women is having just under two children, no where near the highest fertility rates of the world.
