Template talk:English cerem counties

Templates like this, and this one in particular, are disasters

This template holds data, but no references, so verification is rather difficult.

Often the references for previous years' datasets helps locate more up-to-date data. For Ceremonial counties of England it is particularly difficult finding the right stats from the ONS. The very similar Template:English admin counties has similar issues. The result is that these templates become out of date, yet due to the presentation via Template:Infobox English county, which separates the content from the description, ie Template:English statistics year, the county pages end up totally misleading, eg Norfolk, whose mid-2014 ONS estimate is now actually 877,710, not 859,400.

Density rank incompatible with density

This template is giving incorrect results. Assuming nobody has edited this template since I wrote this message, see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_ceremonial_counties_of_England&oldid=787522526 and sort by density: the density ranks are all wrong. -- Dr Greg  talk  18:40, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

I've now fixed the problem myself. -- Dr Greg  talk  20:20, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

"Yearly population estimates are not available at ward level" in re County Durham and North Yorkshire

Is this not it? Ward Level Mid-Year Population Estimates (Experimental Statistics) ("Mid-2016 Persons" sheet, "All ages" column)
Ingleby Barwick East (10,561) + Ingleby Barwick West (12,157) + Mandale and Victoria (12,356) + Village (7,136) + Stainsby Hill (6,363) + Yarm (9,856) = North Yorkshire part (58,429)
Total borough (195,681) — North Yorkshire part (58,429) = Durham part (137,252)
If this is the case, I think it's worth maybe adding "Stockton-on-Tees (Durham part)" and "Stockton-on-Tees (North Yorkshire part)" values to Template:English district population and Template:English district area, just so it's easy to reference the numbers in the two county and the borough articles. --Inops (talk) 21:12, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

Data outdated

All English county template data for both population estimates and area is quite out of date now (2019). I wonder if somebody more capable than I is able to update them to the latest 2021 figures please? Dgp4004 (talk) 18:59, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
