In 2006 the region had 28,672 inhabitants,[Note 4] nearly half the total population of Charente-Maritime (47.9%).

The figure for half the population of Charente Maritime has to be incorrect. The department counts nearly half a million people and La Rochelle alone over 70,000.

suggest sentence reads:

I'm sorry, but the quote and the suggestion say exactly the same thing, letter for letter. Can you be clearer what change you are actually suggesting? Si Trew (talk) 06:49, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It should have been 286,872 (at least according to French WP) – looks like a typo. I've fixed it. Si Trew (talk) 06:52, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Use of "Notes" in this Format

[edit]

Does anyone feel this entry's use of "notes" in ways not unlike listing your source, detracts from the already not very factual story, historically speaking. I can understand employing such annotation in the fashion of footnotes, to be used to cross reference specific subjects if this entry were the size of a single encyclopedic volume all by itself, however unless the entry is expected to grow a thousand times in length, I think this system of annotation does a great disservice to the articles clarity.Dirtclustit (talk) 22:00, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
