Hello. I edited a pie chart of religious affiliations in the Christmas Island article. However, I have realized that the 2021 census data (which I used as my source) is slightly adjusted to protect the privacy of individuals; after downloading the data in an Excel file from the official website, I noticed that the numbers do not add up and that there was a disclaimer explaining this at the bottom of the spreadsheet.

Does anyone know if there is a place to find unaltered Australian census data? I thought that this would also be a valuable question for others to see the answer to. M89565c (talk) 05:58, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@M89565c: I don't believe there is a way to find unaltered census data. After all, that defeats the whole purpose of adding noise to the data in the first place. For what its worth, you were right to update that Christmas Island pie chart, as the ABS is always the best source for census data in Australia rather than third party sources, plus its good to update to the latest census. We just have to live with the data being slightly inaccurate, which isn't that big of a deal anyway due to people moving house, not answering the census correctly, and other reason which make the underlying data not perfect to begin with.

That sounds reasonable, thanks for answering. M89565c (talk) 17:05, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Australian Wikipedians' notice board:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2024!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2024, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!
