Not done please provide
reliable sources that support the changes you want made. The linked source provides the total population as of 2023, but not the Muslim population. "97% expected to be Muslim" is speculative.

- https://www.pbs.gov.pk/sites/default/files/population/2017/tables/pakistan/Table09n.pdf
- 2017 results in the link above (which were released in full) have the figure at 96.5%. We should use this until full 2023 census results are released (beyond total population already quoted in earlier reply).
- Thank you. M.suleiman.a ( talk) 20:56, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
Already done The table under the countries header already lists 96.5% and cites the 2017 census, so it looks like this edit has already been implemented.

PLease can somebody at least mildly competent take a look at this.
250 million total population exclusing Azad Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan. [1]
96.5% * 250 million = 241 million.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by M.suleiman.a ( talk • contribs) 17:52, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- We can't apply 2017 proportions to 2023 totals. That would be bad practice outside Wikipedia, especially when there's such a dramatic increase in the population (~20%), but on Wikipedia it would breach a key policy, that of verifiability, and our consequential policy Wikipedia:No original research.

This revision from 4 October 2022 by Nillurcheier introduced an error for Morocco that is still uncorrected today: a 4.1 percentage instead of 2.1. There may have been other leftovers too, but this is what stood out in that currently a 37M for Afg is 2.0% while 36M for Mor is 4.1%. Unfortunately correcting to the earlier 2.1 still leaves a discrepancy, presumably due to updated demographics diverging from what was used to calculate the % column, but at least it'd be much closer and somewhat acceptable. Ah, it's because that 36M should've been 37,930,989 (99% of the total pop of 38,314,130), then the 2.1 makes sense. --
