Isnt bali already have confirmed cases?

Since first death in Indonesia is in Bali, actually Bali no longer hold suspected cases status. Can we change the map? Wisang17 (talk) 07:49, 13 March 2020 (UTC)

Central Java must be updated too. SunDawn (talk) 10:30, 13 March 2020 (UTC)

Closure of universities

I think we shouldn't list universities that close their learning. As things go this could increase a lot, and I don't think we should list all of them. The current list is fine though as they are among the first movers and should be listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SunDawn (talk • contribs) 12:26, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

Map update

The map hasnt been updated since the first case was made public TheMarsian (talk) 11:42, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

I have created the new map but GIMP won't let me save to SVGSunDawn (talk) 13:00, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

There is a conflict whether senior high school is closing/not

Hello. I'm Akmaie Ajam. I noticed there's something wrong in Central Java-Regional government-Response section, it says "close all kindergarten to junior high school at the province". But most of the sources say Ganjar Pranowo all schools except universities (Remember: SMA = Senior High School/High School).^[1]^[2] Which one should I use?

Cases section

At 96 and growing, isn't it getting (unfortunately) too long for the article? Juxlos (talk) 00:59, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

I agreed, and as the government is not disclosing details right now we could change the table into "Early Cases". As it is 110+ today it will be too difficult to track. SunDawn (talk) 09:45, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

WikiProject COVID-19

I've created WikiProject COVID-19 as a temporary or permanent WikiProject and invite editors to use this space for discussing ways to improve coverage of the ongoing 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic. Please bring your ideas to the project/talk page. Stay safe, --Another Believer _(Talk) 17:25, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

kawal covid-19 as source

While kawal covid-19 is good, I don't think it could be used as a primary source for a wiki article. The current table is great, but in my opinion further updates must be taken from mainstream media sources.SunDawn (talk) 12:53, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

Chart graph breaking the page

Can the graph chart be removed from the template to their own section? As of now the page is breaking up because the graph chart is too wide to be displayed side-to-side with the bar chart template.

I can make the change but I am waiting for some thoughts.SunDawn (talk) 10:49, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

@SunDawn: Whatever you can do to fix it, do it. For a page that showed up in DYK, this is just unacceptable. I don’t know what the problem is though, maybe too much information? One wrong character? ⌚️ (talk) 06:16, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Percentage increases in deaths miscalculated?

The page lists there being 102 deaths on 2020-03-28 and 114 on 2020-03-29. The page lists this as a +32% increase, when it is closer to a 12% increase. It lists 122 deaths on 2020-03-30 and lists this as a 12% increase, but 8 additional deaths after 114 must be less than 8%. What's going on? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.172.242.47 (talk) 08:33, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Different data

Data from province's website of South Kalimantan is different than one .What should i do?Nyansan Ard (talk) 14:49, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

It is normal when the data from the province and central government websites are different. We should always stick to the central one. HiChrisBoyleHere (talk) 17:18, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

Removal of cases table

As Indonesian government now not disclosing the location of the patients, and the number is getting higher, should we still use the table? SunDawn (talk) 11:23, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

As we have our first recovery and first death, can we alter our table to present “status” of the patient?

We can delete the location of treatment as it will be undisclosed anyway. SunDawn (talk) 06:17, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

I agree. The table isn't effective. HiChrisBoyleHere (talk) 17:19, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

I am unable to edit the template

I am unable to edit the template. It just throw me an empty page to "create" a new template.SunDawn (talk) 09:14, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

The easiest way to make a new template is to copy existing template and then edit it.Gsarwa (talk) 14:08, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

I think we should add another data row and table on suspected deaths due to COVID-19, i.e. deaths of ODP and PDP people

I think we should add another data row and table on suspected deaths due to COVID-19, i.e. deaths of ODP and PDP people. I say this because this is WHO's guideline on reporting of number of deaths, and on top of that Indonesian govt doesn't continue with the PCR test on samples of people who are already dead before their samples are taken. So if we don't publish these set of data, then this number is easily drowned away with very little awareness from the public. Please see this for further information: https://www.instagram.com/p/CCDg0acAizA/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ahdyt (talk • contribs) 08:54, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

We could add it but where can we get the full data of all provinces? HiChrisBoyleHere (talk) 16:07, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

Adding new data under universities

Airlangga University also already held a lockdown on March 14, 2020 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Omegere (talk • contribs) 06:26, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

Tested 1,731,634 (11 August 2020) is Wrong, it is not the number of people who tested, but the number of specimens

Tested 1,731,634 (11 August 2020) is Wrong, it is not the number of people who tested, but the number of specimens.

A person who is tested can have 1-2 specimens. Especially if the result is negative, the test is done twice, meaning that it has 2 specimens.

The number written is the number of specimens, not the number of people tested.

Correct references can be taken from https://www.andrafarm.com/_andra.php?_i=daftar-co19-provinsi or https://covid19.kemkes.go.id/category/situasi-infeksi-emerging/info-corona-virus/#.XzHK_otS-Mr

It says that the number of people who tested for PCR was 984,893

Henceforth, you should take from both websites or directly from the press conference of the Indonesian government. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Indragung Priyambodo (talk • contribs) 22:41, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Mistake

Active cases, recovery rate, number of recoveries, fatality rate, & death is wrong. Someone must fix this!

Active cases (as of 20 October 2020): 62,455 Recovery rate: 79,6% Number of recoveries (as of 20 October 2020): 293,653 Death: 12,734 Fatality rate: 3,5% AnonymousNo.882 (talk) 09:53, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

Request for comment - cases change metrics

Do we need section for notable people infected with COVID?

Do we need the section?

While it may be interesting fact, this section almost take 25% of the current wiki page. If we want to preserve this, a new page may be better as we could focus on the pandemic on this wikipage.SunDawn (talk) 11:50, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Mentions @Flix11 and HiChrisBoyleHere:, mostly active editing there. MRZQ (talk) 12:37, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

I don't think we should delete the section, but instead we can create a new article for it. HiChrisBoyleHere (talk) 12:58, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

I agreed with that. Can you do that, as I am not experienced to move tables? Thanks. SunDawn (talk) 11:16, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

I have just read this message. Thanks for doing a good job. HiChrisBoyleHere (talk) 13:29, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

You are welcome. I think we need to clarify that the list included some notable dead people, and we may need to put a short summary on the main page about the notables. Perhaps include some of the most famous ones? SunDawn (talk) 13:32, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

Yes I have put a short summary on the article that clarifies it also includes dead people. HiChrisBoyleHere (talk) 17:04, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

Vaccination

Vaccines are arriving and in coming months I think it would be notable. Any inputs on where on the article we should put sections about vaccination? Maybe create a new section under Responses? SunDawn (talk) 09:18, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Maybe we can add new section on Responses. HiChrisBoyleHere (talk) 07:27, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

RFC Notable people section - 2

So, our page that listed notable people infected with COVID-19 has been removed, citing that the page is not "encyclopedic enough", thus the list would have to be maintained on this page, risking that this page would be bloated with links.

Calling @Flix11 and HiChrisBoyleHere: too to the RFC.

Thus, I propose that we keep the list, but we don't list people who is merely infected with the disease. We keep the list for the deaths, but we don't list those that survived the disease. SunDawn (talk) 06:52, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Sure thing. HiChrisBoyleHere (talk) 10:07, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

constantly changing data.

Can we remove the part where "the highest daily increase...at most." It's redundant because the data is constantly changing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thephoenix20 (talk • contribs) 08:53, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
