The Elysianmn.com website is quoting 2004 rather than 2000 census material, but not in depth. Anyone have access to the census '04 demographic breakdowns?

recent population update[edit]

I've again reverted changes to this article that not only add un-referenced population and demographic information, but cause visible referencing errors in the article. Population information in articles about US cities should be referenced correctly to US Census sources. -- Mikeblas (talk) 23:11, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please check latest change, this might solve the reference issue and fix small statistical discrepancy. The density on the infobox isn't right according to my data.
Please let me know in any case. M. (talk) 23:26, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
In the infobox, we have densities of 490 per square mile and 190 per square kilometer. The infobox gives a population of 708, referenced here -- but verification of that reference fails because there's only information about households and families, not individual population. I've marked this with {{fv}}.
The area number in the infobox is 1.44 square miles or 3.72 square kilometers. That is referenced here and appears to be correct. 708 people in 1.44 square miles is a density of 492 per square mile; 708 people in 3.72 square kilometers is 190 per square kilometer. So those numbers seem to be correct -- assuming the population number is correct, but it can't be verified.
In the prose of the article, the density values given are different and not referenced, so I've marked them as needing a reference.
The 2020 population in the population history box is not referenced and is marked with a citation needed tag.
I think the article should be reverted to this version, before these destabilizing changes were made. Alternatively, viable references should be provided so that the figures given can be verified and corrected. -- Mikeblas (talk) 01:45, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
 Acknowledged  Second opinion requested You can revert to the suggested version, the population need to be updated tho;
 Comment: All references are there (but there are none on previous census data), including 2020 population (check [5]). I don't think I need to put reference after pop.value if the reference is there at all (spamming source isn't completely necessary (right?! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯));

Red XN DENSITY TOTAL AREA (TA): 708/1.44 = 491.66 (708/3.72 = 190.32)
checkY DENSITY LAND AREA (LA): 708/1.20 = 590.00 (708/3.09 = 229.12)
Red XN HOUSING DENSITY (TA): 393/1.44 = 272.91 (708/3.72 = 105.64)
checkY HOUSING DENSITY (LA): 393/1.20 = 327.50 (708/3.09 = 127.18)
According to the US Census: : "In the U.S., population density is typically expressed as the number of people per square mile of land area. [...]." [POPULATION ÷ LAND AREA]
If this isn't the right way by wikis policy, let me know! information Needs discussion

Reference listed:
  • S1101 HOUSEHOLDS AND FAMILIES - "households and family quantity" [2]
  • Elysian city, Minnesota - "every table are listed in this page, which has POPULATION data" [5]
  • P2 HISPANIC OR LATINO, AND NOT HISPANIC OR LATINO BY RACE - "every populational statistics by race (including Hispanic and Latino, which is not available on table P1)" [8]
  • DP05 ACS DEMOGRAPHIC AND HOUSING ESTIMATES - "housing populational statistic by race and age" [9]
Population data is supposed to be [5], which was [2] prior to some edits. 2020 ACS 1-Year is still to be released on every datatable.
Try and teach, if I'm wrong let me know how to do right. Criticism, alone, doesn't help at all.
Please let me know if I'd have to change anything on further edits on my end to try and improve future and ongoing edits.
 Thank you very much! M. (talk) 17:32, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
