Someone keeps trying to update the population with 2022 numbers. The most recent attempt was to make the population "4,41,31,247." Even if that number is supposed to be "44,131,247" it is not supported by the cited reference. Please provide a current, valid reference for any new population estimate if you have expertise on the latest population estimates. Thank you. Aroundthewayboy ( talk) 01:02, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
@ CityOfSilver: I replaced the data in the Language pie chart to include Dialects as distinct entities. This was reverted back as a "contentious and unsourced" change. The data is not all contentious. It was credibly sourced from the 2011 Census. The same source was mentioned as: C-16 Population by Mother Tongue: Odisha

those languages which have a population less than 0.5% have been summed under Others

Including the dialects presents a better picture of linguistic diversity in Odisha. now, can the pie chart be reverted to the one with dialects?? — g0d0 talk contribs 21:08, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
The article states the pronunciation is [oɽiˈsa].
In other words, Orisa.
How did we arrive at this nonsensical spelling "Odisha" when Orissa was already correct just the way it was?
