Census

Hello,

I added the 2020 population estimate and the 2017 census following content dispute. Both come from INSEE, the institute tasked to conduct such official statistics.

Good day, CocoricoPolynesien (talk) 12:55, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

Complementary information : the 2017 census was published on 30 December 2019, while the 2020 estimate was published on 14 January 2020. CocoricoPolynesien (talk) 13:05, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

Full response to Edelseider:

"You wrote:

• "your estimate is not sourced - where is the link to a specific page? - while the official 2017 census is sourced."
  • That is a completely false statement. The diff [1] prove that you did not provided a source and the diff [2] prove that I did.
• "Your petulance is only making you look bad. The estimate is already obsolete. Check the meaning of that word: "obsolete"."
  • I will pass on the attack and just state that wishing a good day is not "petulance". Also false statement : the 2017 census dates from 30/12/19 while the 2020 estimate dates from... 14/01/20. That is not what obsolete means. You also didn't provide a link to back up your claims.
• "It is true that there was a population estimate for 2020, made in 2019. But since the publication of the official census figures for 2017 by INSEE, on December 30, 2019, this figure has become fanciful and this estimate, obsolete. Given the growth rate of the departments of Bas-Rhin and Haut-Rhin since 2007, the total population in 2020 is necessarily higher than that of 2017, which is higher than the estimate that you revere so much."
  • False statement. The 2020 estimate was published in 2020 two weeks after the 2017 census. Also, if you would have read what you were editing, you would have notice that the 2020 estimate was already higher than the 2017 census, which is the exact opposite of what you claimed.

I initialy assumed good-faith from you. However as you added back unsourced data with attacks, it became clear you weren't of good-faith. Good day anyway, CocoricoPolynesien (talk) 13:44, 15 January 2020 (UTC)"

Article Name ... English or French?

don't know if this has been discussed before, but I noticed that the article name is in english, while if we look at the rest of the regions of france's article, they are named in french (ie Île-de-France isn't island of france or Grand Est isn't Big East). was wondering if there is an explanation for this. is it because of the european collectivity status? if so, should we rename the article like Alsace (European Collectivity) as the remaining collectivities of france [granted not european] don't have collectivity in their article name?
