Statistics revamped
editHi! A little update here: I have restructured, augmented and updated the statistics paragraph. And to clear things up I added some information to emphasize the difference between refugees and asylum seekers on one hand, and resettled people (former refugees) on the other hand.
The old table was a conceptual mix of current refugees and resettled former refugees, which lead to data that's impossible to compare between countries. That has hopefully improved now. I have added a lot of data from UNHCR on current refugee(like) people, and updated immigration data for several countries. There are still quite some countries with missing or outdated immigration data, they are tagged as such and I hope others will join to add more data.
The old graph had an incorrect 'total' column: it was only the total of the displayed countries - not the total of all known refugee(like) people. It also cherry-picked a few countries. I have now graphed every country with currently >100,000 refugee(like) people (according to UNHCR data) + grouped all the other countries. And added 2020.
No old data or sources have been removed except a few outdated secondary sources (news articles) that referenced UNHCR data, as I have now just referenced the proper UNHCR website directly. I have tagged all sources older than 3 years as {{obsolete source}}[obsolete source], and missing sources as {{cn}}[citation needed].
