Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment

This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 2 August 2021 and 4 September 2021. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Blanca.miguel.

Above undated message substituted from Template:Dashboard.wikiedu.org assignment by PrimeBOT (talk) 18:29, 17 January 2022 (UTC) == Could anybody please update the numbers of new cases/deaths daily? They have remained the same for more than a month.[reply]

Protests against the Spanish Government

Hello, could anyone include the latest news about the protests in the streets against the government?

Thanks. -83.38.50.205

Different deaths figure

The Spanish national institute of statistics recently published its own death toll figures, based on symptoms rather than on positive tests, which is much higher than the official government figure (70 % higher for the first wave). See for instance [1], [2]. I think this should be mentioned in the Infobox and opening paragraph, like in the UK page where both the official government figure and the (higher) ONS figure are mentioned. --2001:B07:646C:244E:C50D:AD2B:CA00:D158 (talk) 15:48, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Charts based on daily reports, Scale for no of deaths !?

Request for comments: Does it not make sense to split the active cases, recoveries and no of deaths in a separate chart just because of the Scale of the x-axe (260.000 right now) the reader cannot see if for example the trend for the number of deaths is rising or not... ?!

Adding data from 1/4 onward using info from cnecovid.isciii.es

As I noted in the Spain Medical Cases Chart Talk, updated all Spanish daily figures from 1/4/2021 onward using charts supplied at: https://cnecovid.isciii.es/covid19/resources/casos_tecnica_ccaa.csv and https://cnecovid.isciii.es/covid19/resources/casos_hosp_uci_def_sexo_edad_provres.csv Within those charts, used the "num_casos" field summarized over all variables and the "num_def" field summarized over all variables.Araesmojo (talk) 18:58, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

X-axis in Cases confirmed by PCR per region, for the 10 regions with most cases (logarithmic scale) in 2020

change "A partially unconstitutional lockdown was imposed on 14 March 2020" this was not unconstitutional and this paragraph is misleading. 83.39.65.67 (talk) 15:07, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
