Arithmetic
"Total Polish losses in the postwar 1946 boundaries[15] were about 3,600,000 (15.8% of the total population of 23.3 million).[17]" But 3,600,000 is 15.5% of 23.3 million, not 15.8%. Or rounding off in the other direction, 15.8% of 23.3 million is 3,681,400, which doesn't round off to 3,600,000. So if the source confirms two of the three figures (3,600,000, 15.8%, and 23.3 million), then the third should be recomputed to match. Same for the next two lines about Romania and Czechoslovakia. 2601:8:B500:862:61A5:68B3:40B2:29C6 (talk) 19:14, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
