- ... that both Narathiwat and Pattani provinces in Thailand were over 80.0% Muslim in 2000? http://web.nso.go.th/pop2000/finalrep/narathifn.pdf http://web.nso.go.th/pop2000/finalrep/pattanifn.pdf

- By the way, an alternative hook for this –which I myself actually like better than my original hook here–could be this:
- ... that Surin Province in Thailand was over 60% Khmer in 1990 and slightly less than half Khmer in 2000? http://web.nso.go.th/pop2000/finalrep/surinfn.pdf Futurist110 (talk) 01:50, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- I have now reviewed this DYK? nomination here: Template:Did you know nominations/Jasmin Taylor. Futurist110 (talk) 01:39, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
Took a look at the sources and it seems good. I'll do a full review soon, but right now my main concern is the article title: is there a better possible title? Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 06:03, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5: If you have any better ideas for a title for this specific Wikipedia article, by all means, please share these ideas with me! Futurist110 (talk) 21:02, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
- We already have a Demographics of Thailand article so that's probably not possible at this time. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:49, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5: Well, please let me know when you will do a full review of this DYK? nomination of mine, will you? Please! Futurist110 (talk) 21:43, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- I've been thinking about this for a while and another concern I've since had is if the article should be merged to Demographics of Thailand since it seems to discuss things already discussed in that article. Perhaps a merge discussion is needed first before this can fully proceed. In addition I just had a COVID vaccine shot and am monitoring for side effects so I can't do any full reviews until later today at the earliest. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:37, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- If you want to start a merger discussion, by all means, go for it! Futurist110 (talk) 05:34, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5: Please let me know when you created a merger discussion page for these two articles! Futurist110 (talk) 17:24, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Note: @Narutolovehinata5 and Futurist110: I have proposed a merger. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 01:59, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
Nomination is now on hold pending the outcome of the merge proposal. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:53, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
- In that case, I'll use my Jasmin Taylor QPQ here for another DYK? nomination, if that's OK with you. Futurist110 (talk) 20:20, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Futurist110: Are you planning to withdraw this nomination? Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:48, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Seeing as there doesn't appear to be any path forward for the nomination given the merge discussion, and the nom's comment above, it's probably time to close this as stale. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 07:43, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
Why this list? edit
I don't quite get the point of lists such as this one. Overall, it seems to contain no more than a reproduction of statistics from the relevant government reports. Clearly the subject of Thailand's demography itself is encyclopedic, but is this collection of data actually an encyclopedic topic that can be covered in a stand-alone encyclopedia article, or does it have third-party coverage that establishes notability? --Paul_012 (talk) 15:35, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
- I agree with Paul. I don't understand why we go to the trouble of recapitulating numbers from web sources when we could just link to those sources. My biggest objection is that it creates a maintenance headache. The assembling of all the numbers in one place may be convenient for a few scholars, but I think the place for these data are in the relevant provincial articles and with links from the main demographics article.
