According to Council of Europe, around 30,000 Romani people live in Switzerland. Add this information to the demographics section.

- Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Charliehdb (talk) 10:00, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Official German name without 'ß'
In modern Swiss Standard German there is no 'ß', they use 'ss' instead. Please change it in the top infobox. 2A04:EE41:6:CBB2:378C:A9B1:55:DFE5 (talk) 06:09, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
- Right. Done. --Sapphorain (talk) 21:55, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
- Funnily enough, given that the "o" in "Genossenschaft" is short, there should never have been a sharp s to begin with, even in German Standard High German. Trigaranus (talk) 06:05, 26 September 2024 (UTC) -- Apparently, the guy who added the silly letter has since had his account blocked. Go figure. (And yes, it's a slow news day here.)

Government infobox
I added the "with elements of direct democracy" because I think it should be noted there like it is in the Lichtenstein government infobox. ErickTheMerrick (talk) 01:52, 20 November 2024 (UTC)

Change "...most of the country's 9 million people are concentrated on the plateau, which hosts the largest cities and economic centres, including Zurich, Geneva, and Basel." to "...most of the country's 9 million people are concentrated on the plateau, which hosts the largest cities and economic centres, including Zurich, Geneva, and Lausanne." Basel does not lie on the Swiss plateau. Basel is one of the few places in Switzerland that does not lie in one of the main three geographical regions - instead, it lies, depending on how exactly you divide up the regions, on the Upper Rhine Plane (source: http://www.infos-schweiz.ch/geografie/index.html) or in the Jura (source: https://www.nccs.admin.ch/nccs/de/home/regionen/grossregionen/jura.html). The next largest city (source: https://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/216783/umfrage/groesste-staedte-in-der-schweiz/) that lies on the Swiss plateau is Lausanne (source: http://www.infos-schweiz.ch/geografie/index.html), so I suggest replacing Basel with Lausanne in the list of large cities and economic centers, though I can also imagine Bern as an option, since it's not much smaller than Lausanne and the de facto capital.
