Infobox

@Khirurg Well religious minorities are key facts which the article also mentions, over 10% are irreligious and many are also muslim, and there also exists a sizeable pagan and jewish communities of greeks this seems to be another POV pushing case. Plakosa (talk) 04:45, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

None of the sources you are using are reliable. NSRN.org is a partisan advocacy website and the 10% figure is a gross overestimation. Greek Muslims are generally not considered part of the Greek nation, as the many sources in that article attest. By the way you edit very aggressively for an account created on October 10. Have you edited wikipedia before? Khirurg (talk) 05:10, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just because they don't live in greece doesn't mean they are not greeks, also various polls also say greece its 80 to 91% christian, as reported by 2022 Report on International Religious Freedom Greece by the US state department

How do I edit "aggressively"? No I haven't edited before, why is that a issue. Plakosa (talk) 15:52, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Plakosa It is clear that you do not have WP:CONSENSUS for your changes and you still engage in an WP:EDITWAR. Do not go on other people's accounts and falsely accuse them of editwarring. You are the one introducing new changes and the WP:ONUS is on you to convince others that your edits are constructive. You have been told multiple times that the infobox summarizes "key points" and not every single piece of information mentioned in the body per WP:INFOBOXPURPOSE and WP:UNDUE. I have linked the former policy several times in my edit summaries, but you haven't paid any attention. Judaism and Hellenism among Greeks are minuscule minorities; Islam is also very small. Irreligion is also small and irrelevant. Greeks are predominantly and traditionally associated with Greek Orthodoxy, just like Serbs with Serbian Orthodoxy, Croats with Catholicism etc. This is what a "key point" in the infobox looks like. Please, familiarize yourself with wikipedia policies, including WP:CIVIL. Piccco (talk) 18:11, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
