Wikipedia had that error at least since January 2015, as I noted in my longer piece which documents many of the secondary sources who misreported or made erroneous assumptions and extrapolations about Pew's apostasy data shown in their 2013 report.<br />http://empethop.blogspot.ca/2015/02/a-fact-check-of-bill-maher-and-his.html<br /><br />Their error indicates that they--like so many others--did not read, or did not read carefully, the original full report from Pew (2013), otherwise they would have seen p. 219. <br /><br />If you do the correction, that would be great. One problem though: If you correct something on Wikipedia, someone else can come in and "uncorrect" it later.empethophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15144367266623894559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-570188063083514741.post-78213655012814617742017-02-13T02:17:59.858-05:002017-02-13T02:17:59.858-05:00I know this is a really old article, but I just ca...I know this is a really old article, but I just came across the tables in this Wikipedia article, and they seem to also be incorrect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostasy_in_Islam#Apostasy_in_the_recent_past<br />Just thought I would note that. I'm not 100% sure, and also not very familiar with editing Wikipedia, so just wanted to make a note here. I'll also see if I can point that out there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
