Can someone please help link to this orphaned article? Gbawden (talk) 07:47, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a mistake in the pie chart for "Racial structure"? E.g. the "White Groups" are 66.7% according to the chart, but on the reference (excel file), it says 79.8% [See KS201EW_Percentages tab > Greater Manchester (Met County] are White? Also the other ethnic category percentages are different? I am missing something?--Aa2-2004 (talk) 15:04, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the article is about the Borough of Manchester not the county of Greater Manchester whose figures you are looking at WatcherZero (talk) 20:41, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks but where can I find the numbers for the Borough of Manchester?--Aa2-2004 (talk) 15:21, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The reference you linked, three lines below where you were previously looking. WatcherZero (talk) 16:30, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unless this is an official term (in fact, even if it is), it needs to be emended to bring it in line with the other phrasing: either "white" and "black" &c. or "white groups" and "Asian groups" &c. Given the totally different context in American English, "Asian" could probably use a link to South Asia or footnote to clarify the people intended. — LlywelynII 06:27, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop this slow-motion edit war. The current description which is now being changed has been present for many months or years. So any changes should be brought here now to be discussed, because they are obviously contentious. If the edit war continues, even spread out over more than 3 reverts in one day, then administrative action may be required.  DDStretch  (talk) 12:54, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure what the policy is on protecting talk pages of articles, but the persistence of the IP editor who is disrupting this page made me apply partial protection to it for one week. I hope the person behind the vandalism will go and find something else to do.  DDStretch  (talk) 23:42, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

They are back. DBaK (talk) 11:56, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for alerting me. They change the IP address they use, so semi-protection seems the best route to try to stop this. I have re-imposed it for one month just now.  DDStretch  (talk) 12:10, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much. Best wishes DBaK (talk) 16:44, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ok. They are back again. I will monitor it and take the apropriate action if required.  DDStretch  (talk) 23:29, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Right, having seen the explosion of idiocy from one or more anonymous IP editors this evening, I have reinstated the protection of this talk page for one month. I know it is unsatisfactory to do this, but it avoids the extreme disruption that was beginning to happen again from an anonymous IP-hopping vandal.  DDStretch  (talk) 23:34, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
